Ice T - Rhyme Pays Lyrics
Verse one:Magnificent rhymer, ill beat designerIf they ask you if Im def. dont front and say kindaMerciless. meticulous. so fresh its rediculousRaised in the heart of los a-n-g-e-l-e-sKing word connector. vocal projectorYour girl tried to jock me. I had to reject herAlways adventurous voice some say is sensuousIm on the mic so I think I better mention thisI dont like gucci, fila, louie or fendiThose are fads and I aint trendyBut wheter your names lucy, terry, laura or cindyIce got beef and this aint wndysBust allmenn move while Im talkinSucker rappers I be stalkinWhen they see me on the street with my homeboy walkinThey slow down, turn around and ask was that ice ?Then they see me cold countin my cashiRhyme pays ----!!Verse 2:Moves must be busted, girls cant be trustedI looked at your lady and I was disgustedCame into the party just to rock the placeAnd your big zombie lookin freak still wont get out of my faceI dont mean to diss her, but do you kiss her ?Look at her hips, shes got those crazy blistersBody that smells like the new york metsArm pits all nappy packed full of sweatI hope this something that you never forgetTie that freak outside next time you come in a setBecause my jams be crazt packed with all fly ladiesIm talkin def girlies and I dont mean maybeThe way I rhyme no one will ever slay meAnd I aint lyin rhyme do pay me !Rhyme pays ---- !!Verse three:Im notorious, Im infamous. like a snake Im venomousFor those who may diss I think you shoul consider thisI can make a rhyme comlicated as a puzzleDangerous and as violenl as a pit bull in a muzzleBut this record is for radio s-t-e-r-e-oIt not to be banned or for some underground mix showMy hearts in my pen every time I beginSometimes my lyrics go crazy and I just cant control em my friendI try to edit what Im rasppin aboutBut I cant write polite my anger just jumps out !!Perpetrators in the business claim their hard as hellTalkin that gangster shit, known theyre soft as jell-Oh! better chill out before I ill outAnd my negative potential just might ne spill outAnd then this record wont be gettin playedIll save that rap for another day-rhyme pays-Verse four:The front stage area goes into hysteriaAs I start to rhyme and unleash my criteriaOf what is to come during the beat of the drumAnd evil agitates the records with the use of his thumbUsing his intricate moves the rcord stays in the groovesMy body cuts like jason its easy to proveThat evel e is the great. his cuts are real not fakeNot emulated effects or a play back tapeSo suckers witness your fate while evel demonstartesIm bout to get off this nic. e. dog the break - kick it !Verse five:Like me if ya wanta. diss me if youre gonnaBut my jam will still be kickin on your neighborhood cornerAs my bass is maxn out the v.u.s on your boxTherell be no doubt within your mind wheter this mc do rockLike granite. I planned it. so you could understand itIf someones talkin when Im rhyminThen just say. damn shut up !While ice is breakin the boy dont be fakinMaybe theyre just jealous of the dollars Im makinBut youre down with me. you know God gifted meBlack kids say Im trech, white kids say Im niftySpell out my name ya go i-c-e-tBut right now its time for evel e to hit me!Verse six:Rhyme pays. buys my food every night and dayPays my rent my bills I guess Im doin okBut when I say rhyme pays. I mean in different waysCause rappin gets a lot of kids out of the streets each dayIt makes me feel real nice when someone likes the iceOr some young mc asks me for adviceBut there will always be rappers who hate ice tMaybe I dogged em in a battle or just jealousyInevitable situation. sucker rapper frustrationI rhyme too tough to bite. too intricate for notationSyllables jumbled. competitors crumble as they witness mic attackAnd the microphone rumbles like hurricaneI maim. sometimes I go insaneStep toward my rep and I inflict the pain !No shame ice capital its my name !!Damn there I go illin out again !!!!-rhyme pays-
