MC Shan - Down By Law Lyrics
My name is M.C. Shan, my destiny is the starsBeing driven around in the freshest carsAll his beats and my rhymes are chillNow I'm back once again ready to get illThe beat's not fake, the rhyme's hardcoreMy name is M.C. Shan and I'm down by lawThere's been this rumor going aroundAbout low life crab saying I ain't downBut all MC's will feel my wrathThe system is my power the mic is my staffI have the power of command, the power of lustAt the battles all papers read...(Marley mixes 'Another one bites the dust')All across the country I know I'm hatedNot only by crews I've devastatedDon't ask how I know, I just can tellBy the tone of your voice as you wish me wellFilled with so much envy that your face turns greenCause my name rings bells on the hip-hop sceneSo pull out a bottle let the champagne pourFly rhymes so that makes me down by lawCreeping across the nation like a midnight stormAlways rock a jam every time I perfromRecords I make are not distortedMade in New York and not importedHave never been known to make an errorCrews see me coming, their heart full of terrorDip out the back when I step on the sceneWatch the back door, you'll see what I meanI love to rock a party every time I canMy DJ is Marley Marl and I'm M.C. ShanWe make the freshest jams that you've ever heardMarl, ain't we down? (Word!)Now that we've come to the very endHis beats my rhymes are a perfect blendWe are the ones all others admireTo be like us is their desireNever get angry always stay calmYet do as much damage as a nuclear bombDo or say anything we mayWe destroy all objects in our wayAs expensive as diamonds, as precious as pearlsRap so strong, take all y'all girlsMake cold cash money, make much much moreMy name is M.C. Shan and I'm down by law!
