25 years ago a friend of mine Asked me to say some mc rhymes So i said the rhyme i'm about to say The rhyme was def and then it went this way Took a test to become an mc Dj run said 'd, come and rhyme with me' So i climbed inside of larry's cadillac The caddy drove off and we never came back The car we drove, it was the car called rap That's the way it is and it's like that I gotta give props to all hip hop And i'm gonna keep rhymin 'till the day i drop
Chorus: Just as i suspected, you can't touch me D to the a double r y ello You wanna know why i'm still raisin hell And you stand corrected by dmc I'm fine like wine I get better with time And all the young girls sing 'do do do do do' Sucker mc's make history And everybody in the streets wanna be an mc I thank hip hop for adopting me And helpin me get where i got to be Some people seem to think that to be an mc You need a closet full of clothes and iced out jewelry Pocket full of dollars, cars in every flavor (somethin somethin) behavior Sorry to say that's how it was before But people aren't goin for that no more You gotta give a performance 'cause by now you should know That you're givin a party not a fashion show Oh oh oh-oh Just as i suspected, you can't touch me D to the a double r y ello You wanna know why i'm still raisin hell And you stand corrected by dmc Yeah Everybody wanna rap, but that's not all But a real mc, you do not call Cause you can't write a rhyme at a quarter to two You need a real mc before the jam is through Now fake @$$ rappers got (something) You need to take a record from childhood back(?) Just as i suspected, you can't touch me D to the a double r y ello You wanna know why i'm still raisin hell And you stand corrected by dmc
