Genius - Phony As Ya Wanna Be Lyrics
When I hold a mic in my hand, its devotionThen I began flowing in a smooth steady motionCause imcontended to know that Ive inventedPoetry which has been highly complimentedThus how I rhyme is what I feel on stageAnd from a fraction of a thought I can write a whole pageIll just pull a notebook from off the shelfAnd like salt-n-pepa I express myselfTo make most of you know me, and some of you dontBut when it comes to cold challenging, I bet none of you wontArrange a battle, improve your styleAgainst a brother with a totally different profileMost of you flake cold front ya flexAnd hesitate on rhymes that shouldve been memorexBut you forgot I remember youre an amateurMystery worshipper, nowi preferThati remind you or tease ya on whos the bossCause you suffer amnesia, thats memory lossWell get this just as quiet as its keptMcs on the chart from teh start has sleptLets shake them,wake them, they should be wokeFor what? they take mcing for a practical jokeYou dont have what it takes to be an mcYa just as phony as ya wanna beYou present yourself to be the quiet stormYoure a sneaky littlesnake in a devilish formBut as they say, yo, to each its ownAnd to each one who plays with a microphoneAbbreviate microphone and m.i.c.Meaning what, myself, i, you seeI invite those to battle me then theyre throughBust it, imnot prejudiced youre invited tooThe rap convention or the mc showI have rhymes to block those who hit belowThe belt, that means biting a rhymeYes, Ill wax you, tax you and plus save timeNow who is known to uphold his ownAnd words are heard like a strong baritoneFreestyle techniques thats wild and boldThatll smile in your face and still come so coldThat Ill freeze you to the point of non-defrostNow youre trapped in the land of the lostShould i, could i, would I loseWhen its a selfish sore loser like you I chooseTo roll your big eyes and suck your buck teethBecause youre upset that you ever caused beefYo homeboy, I never meant to teaseBut its a slaughter, can someone help him pleaseFeeling uncomfortable, then loosen your beltOnce the genius gets heated up, suckers will meltThen after ya melt, ya start dripping like waterThen you can say this was a goddamn slaughterYou dont have what it takes to be an mcYa just phony as ya wanna beAint no rhymes like the one I gotThey put competitors in a trance, yallRadio stations ran them a lotThey made children play and dance yallHow dare ya mention youre an mcWhen the crowd disagrees on who claim to beCause your battle piece are the rhymes you releaseAnd that only make the crowd boos increaseHey, may I say Ill stay a djMc who try to defeat me or portrayOne who claims he gain much respectBut in a battle, straight up and down ya getting wreckedCauise getting with me is definitely a slaughterOr diving in a pool head first without waterSo dont set yourself up to get brutalizedThat only happens when youre not energizedBit Im so damn energized, Im energeticThat I can wreck a microphone til its patheticOka, got it in your head, correctThat Im victoriouson any subectYou disbelieve, then huh, call the titleThen after one rhyme youll be calling me your idolIts like..zap...another one on my jock strapNow you walk around praising my nameCause Im slamming and I make you feel the painYou dont have what it takes to be an mcYa just phony as ya wanna be
