Microphone Fiend

I was a fiend, before I became a teen

I melted microphone instead of cones of ice cream

Music orientated, so when hip-hop was originated

Fitted like pieces of puzzles, complicated

'Cause I grabbed the mic and try to say, "Yes y'all!"

They tried to take it, and say that I'm too small

Cool, 'cause I don't get upset

I kick a hole in the speaker, pull the plug, then I jet

Back to the lab, without a mic to grab

So then I add all the rhymes I had

One after the other one, then I make another one

To dis the opposite, then ask if the brother's done

I get a craving like I fiend for nicotine

But I don't need a cigarette, know what I mean?

I'm ragin', rippin' up the stage and

Don't it sound amazin', 'cause every rhyme is made and

Thought of, 'cause it's sort of, an addiction

Magnetized, by the mixin'

Vocals, vocabulary, your verses, you're stuck in

The mic is a drano, volcanoes erupting

Rhymes overflowin', gradually growin'

Everything is written in the cold, so it can coin-

Cide, my thoughts to guide

48 tracks to slide

The invincible microphone fiend Rakim

Spread the word, 'cause I'm in

E-F-F-E-C-T

A smooth operator operatin' correctly

But back to the problem, I gotta habit

You can't solve it, silly rabbit

The prescription is a hypertone that's thorough when

I fiend for a microphone like heroin

Soon as the bass kicks, I need a fix

Gimme a stage, and a mic, and a mix

And I'll put you in a mood, or is it a state of

Unawareness? Beware, it's the, re-animator!

A menace to a microphone, a lethal weapon

A assassinater, if the people ain't steppin'

You see a part of me that you never seen

When I'm fiendin' for a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend

After 12, I'm worse that a Gremlin

Feed me hip-hop and I start tremblin'

The thrill of suspense is intense, your horrified

But this ain't the cinemas of "Tales From the Darkside"

By any means neccesary, this is what has to be done

Make way, 'cause here I come

My DJ cuts material

Grand imperial

It's a must that I bust any mic you're hand to me

It's inherited, it's runs in the family

I wrote the rhyme that broke the bull's back

If that don't slow 'em up, I carry a full pack

Now I don't wanna have to let off, you should of kept off

You didn't keep the stage warm, step off

Ladies and gentleman, you're about to see

A pastime hobby about to be

Taken to the maximum, I can't relax see, I'm

Hype as a hyperchrondriac 'cause the rap be one

Hell of a antidote, something you can't smoke

More than dope, you're trying to move away but you can't, you're broke

More than cracked up, you should have backed up

For those who act up need to be more than smacked up

Any entertainer, I got a torture chamber

One on one, and I'm the remainder

So close your eyes and hold your breath

And I'm a hit'cha wit' the blow of death

Before you go, you'll remember you seen

The fiend of a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend

The microphone fiend

The micro-, the micro-, the micro-, the microphone fiend

The micro-, the mic-, the mic-, the microphone fiend, microphone fiend

The micro-, the mic-, the mic-, the microphone fiend, microphone fiend

The micro-, the micro-, the microphone

The, the micro-, the micro-, the microphone fiend
