I stepped into a basement party in Brooklyn The brothers was looking as soon as I put a foot in A female walked up to me and said "Latifah bust a line" I don't think you're on the strength, show me the time I said "If you really want to do this, we can do this, fine Take six paces and begin to rhyme" As soon as attempted to make a sound I ate her up with the verb, broke her down with the noun Cause I hate it when someone challenges with me but cannot balance with me I get annoyed when they can't go blow for blow I get pissed when I hear the lyrics a sucker brings Ha ha, I was thinking the same thing Well I was approached by a whole damn group of them Rhyme fiends, biters, and bums Took me kind of light, said they wanted to fight I kinda got uptight (You didn't do what I think you did?) Yeah, right! Bash! went the first, Smash! went the next one He started, he started to run But to his suprise, his feet must have slipped Cause I snapped that neck before the second step
