Yo (yo)
Watch as the room rocks mentally moonwalk
Mixed Media slang, banging in your boom box
Verbal violence, lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish
You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an MC
With your lack of skill and facility, you're killin' me
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard that some of you are gettin' help with your rhymes
You're not an MC if someone else writes your lines
Rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
'Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years
But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up? None of it's real
You want to be an MC, you've got to study the skill
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up
So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally you don't have the hip hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top forty (top forty)
And your record company is completely missing it
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
So in a battle, you can't hack it, react with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal backflips
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
It's taken decades for MCs to establish this
You're new to hip hop and welcome if you're serious
But not on the mic leave that to the experienced
(Using the waves of sound the true master)
(Paralyzes his opponents, leaving him vulnerable to attack)

In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish
Dans une époque où les rimes de hip hop rock sont enfantines
You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Tu ne peux pas me tenter avec des rimes qui sont vides
Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an MC
Rapper sur un beat ne fait pas de toi un MC
With your lack of skill and facility, you're killin' me
Avec ton manque de compétence et de facilité, tu me tues
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
Et un DJ dans le groupe juste pour la crédibilité
I heard that some of you are gettin' help with your rhymes
J'ai entendu dire que certains d'entre vous se font aider pour leurs rimes
You're not an MC if someone else writes your lines
Tu n'es pas un MC si quelqu'un d'autre écrit tes lignes
Rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
Rapper sur du rock ne fait pas de toi un pionnier
'Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years
Car le rock et le hip hop collaborent depuis des années
But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up
Mais maintenant ils sont mélangés et assortis de manière aléatoire
All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck
Tous après un dollar rapide et toutes les pistes sont nulles
So how does it stack up? None of it's real
Alors comment ça se tient ? Rien de tout cela n'est réel
You want to be an MC, you've got to study the skill
Tu veux être un MC, tu dois étudier la compétence

Mais mentalement tu n'as pas l'énergie du hip hop
With a tendency to make up stories
Avec une tendance à inventer des histoires
Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top forty (top forty)
On dirait que le seul hip hop que tu as entendu est le top quarante (top quarante)
And your record company is completely missing it
Et ta maison de disques ne comprend rien du tout
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
Tous les gosses le dénigrent pour ne pas être légitime
So in a battle, you can't hack it, react with whack shit
Alors dans une bataille, tu ne peux pas le supporter, réagis avec de la merde
And get smacked with verbal backflips
Et te fais gifler avec des retournements verbaux
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
Fais-toi botter le cul par de fabuleux catalyseurs de bataille
It's taken decades for MCs to establish this
Il a fallu des décennies aux MCs pour établir cela
You're new to hip hop and welcome if you're serious

But not on the mic leave that to the experienced
Mais pas au micro, laisse ça aux expérimentés

But mentally you don't have the hip hop energy
Ma mentalmente non hai l'energia hip hop
With a tendency to make up stories
Con la tendenza a inventare storie
Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top forty (top forty)
Sembra che l'unico hip hop che hai sentito sia top forty (top forty)

E la tua casa discografica sta completamente mancando

Tutti i ragazzi lo stanno dissing per non essere legittimo
So in a battle, you can't hack it, react with whack shit
Quindi in una battaglia, non ce la fai, reagisci con merda
And get smacked with verbal backflips
E vieni schiaffeggiato con capriole verbali
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
Fatti prendere a calci da favolosi catalizzatori di battaglia

Ci sono voluti decenni per gli MC per stabilire questo
You're new to hip hop and welcome if you're serious
Sei nuovo nell'hip hop e benvenuto se sei serio
But not on the mic leave that to the experienced
Ma non sul microfono lascia quello agli esperti
(Using the waves of sound the true master)
(Usando le onde del suono il vero maestro)
(Paralyzes his opponents, leaving him vulnerable to attack)
(Paralizza i suoi avversari, lasciandoli vulnerabili all'attacco)
