Unghhh...what y'all know about this?
Fresh out the icebox
Another hip-hop jam that might rock
Banging in your favorite nightspot, yet
Still poetic like Arthur Prysock
I don't hit the timeclock but the emp's on the grind
Some try to diss cause I ain't rockin those shines
But I drop j**els they couldn't possibly find
If they hadn't stole them out of King Solomon's mines
And make the ladies wanna shake their behind
As they dance, I enhance the shape of their minds
See I realize chivalry is not dead
But let a rapper try to step and catch more than hot lead
The Dred--swing into action just like Steve McQueen
Rebel with a cause but I'm not James Dean
The new leading man on your stage and screen yet
Up until now I've remained unseen
And kept my face hidden like Victor Von Doom
Body slamming rappers like Gorilla Monsoon
Who rocks from Kansas City to Khartoum?
It's The Last Emperor Young boy, so make room
(chorus)
Overture, dim the lights
This is it (WHAAAT?) The knight of knights
When all our heights will finally hit
On with the show (THIS IS IT!)
I'm like a light soldier
Who fights giants and ogres
I'll fight to keep jobs at General Motors
Politicians who lie to attract voters
And defeat crews on MTV news with Kurt Loder
See, I'll fight good in this knighthood of rhyming
The Emp's on the mic, beats by diamond
Stay away from snakes when they start sidewinding
And build my treehouse to high for you to climb in
But should someone let the python in
I'll fight to my d**h like Qui-Gon-Jinn
Now I'm in the game and I came to do work
And utilize the advice I was given by Kool Herc:
Support Hip-Hop, and never abandon
Give the kids on the block a better understanding
And as long as the mic's my companion--
Imma hold it down like the black D'Artagnon
(chorus)
Overture, dim the lights
This is it (WHAAAT?) The knight of knights
When all our heights will finally hit
On with the show (THIS IS IT!)
Well now the beats and the rhymes are like swords and shields
And the streets of the ghetto have become k**ing fields
Human flesh is suppressed, by steel
The identity of this dark warrior is revealed
See, on the real I'm coming fresh out the pack
Like Zorro--to mark an "E" on your back
And you can say that
Rappers get laid flat
When the wheels of my Mack truck
Hit the racetrack
So, step the side and yet this young man lead
Or succumb to the elephant stampede
But if you're down with me than you shall indeed
Be indicted into this knighthood of MC's
(chorus)
Overture, dim the lights
This is it (WHAAAT?) The knight of knights
When all our heights will finally hit
On with the show (THIS IS IT!)
