That's how it happened Whenever BK started rapping Toes started tapping, necks started snapping Now it's time for some action Watch out - in just a quarter of a fraction Got you reading my name like closed caption While I'm blasting with a passion Forming new dimensions when I'm atom smashing Check my DNA mapping Patterns are beyond your ability to match them Catch them in a orderly fashion Typically I'm telling cause I'm not the one asking Pardon me for that whole in your artery Ought to be less hornery when you bother me Take that from an out of whack mic fiend Break backs with your double stacked pipe dreams Fake jacks got you tip toeing lightly Want to hate Kat but your sister really likes me Yea you know who it be Shorty in the cut blazing up on trees Banging in the streets with Giotto beats Got this money on my mind so that's not your cheese Now I got your freeze - It's elementary It adds up to a higher level pedigree Paul put it best when he said let it be Trust y'all don't want to fuck with B A D That's DOA on a DOE so better think twice for you CO me Have you on your knees begging me Oh please False hoping that you call police That's the only sound that you hearing now No one around to be found when you screaming out Little angel destined to be a demon child It'll change you and everything you dream about At least that's how it was written The day that BK started spitting Heads started splitting, blood started dripping For just the price of admission

This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing Don't get mad that's just really how it seems to be Just cause bad be banging and burning up MC's Do the math hot as fire to the tenth degree Stirring up a symphony, clear enough so I repeat This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing That#s right I said it so you heard it here straight from the source Got to get it otherwise you just be getting lost I be breaking bad while mostly they just flaking off Naked soft, fake and all, making way for baby paw This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing Who that? Bk - that's me, no way Hold tight, don't hate, that be mistake Aight, ok, to your dismay Your whack, I'm gay, and still they say This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing I've been doing this for longer than most do Cutting through back streets and main avenues Rocking acapellas or I might be singing blues Slinging tools, keeping cool, this is what an MC do I'm a break it down cause I be the teacher BadKat, whuddup fam, it's nice to meet you Purpose in this life, rocking your boot speaker Truth leaker, bringing knowledge to the people One for the time, one for the place One for the one's who came for the bass One for the rat, one for the race Two for the few who get to escape Making a break, not for the fake Unless you wanna be found in a wake, drowned in a lake Came into town with a pound to go round but it came to late That's just what it is, you see it homie? Front to the back in here, your people know me They ain't stopping shit, or try to slow me What be the crack is clear, no scream it for me This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing Where my soldiers at, where my mothers at? Where my older cats, where my lovers at? Where my fathers, my brothers, my sisters If you know what this is then start clutching fists and Put your fist up in the air - get 'em up Put your fist up in the air, get 'em up and let 'em know This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing I'm a break it down real quick So sick, check this, giving you a twist Like this, rewind, number 9 Laser beam sunshine, chills run down spine Breathe deep, exhale Don't sleep on a beat flowing XL Bo Peep throwing heat on the next male So let me hear you really loud with your best yell This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing Creature of habit, plus a force of nature Don't battle bad or force my hand to Norman Bate ya Chasing the rabbit but you missed the caper You tried to grab it but your weight don't hold no paper Do me a favor, next time you need a friend Go ahead and plug into a BK and Giotto blend We gonna take you from the begin to the very end So let me hear you say it with me one more time again This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing

Shame on you simpletons staying in the middle when We need a little higher percentage of your adrenaline Fill them in like a whole country full of sardinians Pack them in tight then I start spitting tenements Bright like a filament, kite sending Benjamin Tight as a twenty-twen wrapped in a Philly skin Like being different in spite of your sentiments Might reinvent a kid right when you into it Enters in the feminine, proud and preeminent Shining so much light looks like I'm glistening Shimmering like a chandelier made with kindling Dwindling only if the listener ain't listening Oh we on this again? Better start delivering I'm a be assembling disciples of the discipline Sword as the written pen, more for re-scripturing If you missed the message I'll be sure to be resending it Get back, Get down, get... Silly men want to play chief like they be Indian Missing in action whenever I start crippling Splitting tin soldiers in half cause they be mini thin Figuring its time for that ass to get a thicker skin Better start a regimen of minerals and vitamins Look like you need medicine the way that you be trembling All star veteran, so damn hot I'm blistering Varsity lettering, leaving you all cindering Ha back with the synonyms Swinging to a fro when I flow like a pendulum Sweet like cinnamon, pumping your adrenaline Diminishing your profits like a steady drop in dividends Dipping in your margins with my hand up in the cookie bin Came up in to implement a style that's kind of militant Setting sail like Gilligan, I'm one in a million Try to be indifferent but can't deny you feeling it

You say a lot of things, but you don't really mean it Want to act tough when really y'all scarred You say a lot of things, but you don't really mean it So I'm calling your bluff and I don't really care Talk is cheap when the words that you speak Mean very little and we need something deep You are what you eat - so be careful of the thoughts that you preach The sauce that you leak, the gloss that you seek is all lies, flossing a permanent state of demise Blinded by shine when you open your eyes The gold and the diamonds shown like a prize Owning your pride - What part of selling out did you not get or realize It's all a guise Music from the soul gives strength to the people Those in control want to use it for evil Case in point: the eye of the needle Might fit a camel, but not a bunch of heathens So if seeings believing, what do you think your videos are teaching? Brain bleaching, white washing You can be reach but what's it really costing Last time I checked on things that we need It had nothing to do with envy or greed Knowledge is the fruit so I'm planting the seed Devil's work done when there#s no good deeds No good leads, hell to high water Ashes to dust in the name of our father Fascist thugs screaming why bother Paint a pretty picture and hung it on the alter So get down on your knees, pray to the paper of cowardice thieves Just know that you have been deceived The jewel that they keep is that you can be free...

Well, what you wanna talk about - No doubt If you wanna run route - Go now Ladies in the house - All my ladies in the house Fuck your muse, I'm not amused You can think what you want, but you're just confused Man, who think is out here busting moves I can tell all your thinking 'bout is lust and booze Custom grooves, plus we be off the chain Representing for the ladies it ain't just a name Adjust your aim before I dust the lame Think of all the heavy hitters - we bust the same I am - the wind and cool breeze The midnight moon hanging over deep seas Fall leaves high in the shade tree The heartbeat that you call destiny The strength that you seek when you need motivation The mystery in life without interpretation The triumphs that endure the tribulations Open up your mind to the hip hop nation... Soldiers on the front line always on task Homeboy don't forget that girls kick ass Give you something to think about plus make it last With the third eye open looking through the looking glass The time will pass and maybe things change Someway, somehow we gotta re-arrange The illness afflicting your mental plane Distilling the sickness to find the strain I think I've got the antidote - I found the cure Hip Hop has got just what you're looking for A whole lot of soul and a kiloton of pure If you think you're man enough then step through the door Any hope for these dudes? Better be or die trying If I said it'd be easy you know I'd be lying What should we do? It's time for these two to learn some respect.
