Masta Ace - Once More lyrics

[Hook] [Masta Ace]: Once more for a chosen few We came here to do what we supposed to do Spread the word and be tellin' a friend Yell it now then you yell it again Once more Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls Children of all ages across the world Once more in the place to be You're checkin' out the sounds of E- "MC" [Verse One] [Wordsworth]: The marquees lit up, our names in lights Big enough for you to read, ain't gotta strain your sight My point of view? When you look at other crews with mics They got one or two in the group that you don't like Sold out ticket booth, backstage we enter through Pens ready, journalist hold out for interviews And if you check the press rooms where we dress, food and drinks are out Think about bringing out special guests The owners say "what up", the promoter's payin' up Camera's aim at us, family came with us The set? We might change it up Behind curtains, standin', waitin' up Sound man, watch my hand and raise it up Introduce the banners hanging up Then we on And some never catch where we be While rhymin', want us to sign hats and CDs Warmed up by opening acts you see free We live satellite on TV Yeah we takin' over [Hook] [Masta Ace]: Once more for a chosen few We came here to do what we supposed to do Spread the word and be tellin' a friend Yell it now then you yell it again Once more Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls Children of all ages across the world Once more in the place to be You're checkin' out the sounds of E- "MC" [Verse Two] [Stricklin]: Yo, rumor has it there's a brand new group in the game Here to balance out all you dudes that's stupid and lame Got love for this, we don't need cupid to aim The game is changed, let me explain who is to blame One cat used to have a show on MTV Another dude done already dropped five LP's Another cat is from the lower part of NYC The last dude is somethin' like a pimp, that would be me Stricklin Yeah, the mid-west rapper with clout I got mo' game than most of these rapper's that's out Half the time I don't even know what they rappin' about But when I find out, they just might get smacked in the mouth EMC I love when great minds collab You dude's beats be okay, but your rhymes are bad Find me offensive? Can't even find your dad Come here dawg, let me sign your pad EMC n***a [Interlude]: "Once more" Ladies and gentlemen. Today we bring to you..EMC. Well alright! [Verse Three] [Punchline]: Yo Each line I design is changin' the times Basically what I write and prescribe will save lives All rise For the EMC And my flow ride the track till the sh** on E We blaze beats Got you lovin' the sh** EMC, Four Brothers like a Singleton flick Style sick, we spit, face the fact We takin' over like the U.S. did to Iraq Fall back It's the new I.N.C Basically a new branch on the family tree We change the game, no way you can play this Fight a fan for my fam like Antonio Davis Bone models Slay chicks Sleepin' on my stomach is the only time I lie on my dick My squadron is sick, we don't play those games Say no names Basically can't be tamed We takin' over [Hook] [Masta Ace]: Once more for a chosen few We came here to do what we supposed to do Spread the word and be tellin' a friend Yell it now then you yell it again Once more Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls Children of all ages across the world Once more in the place to be You're checkin' out the sounds of E- "MC"
