"Gang Starr has gots to be the sure shot"

"And it's like that" (Primo scratching)

"Gang Starr has gots to be the sure shot"

"And it's like dat" (Primo scratching)

"Gang Starr has gots to be the sure shot"

"Gang Starr" "Represent"

One of the meanest and the cleanest

And still I'm kind of fiendish when I'm at this

Been doing this for eons, peons best to catch this

Vision of excellence precise rappin' ability

'Bout to make some dead presidents, macking a million, G

The money though, it's got people acting funny, yo

As soon as some niggas get some light

They be like dummies, yo

Products and puppets and pawns, getting played out

When authentic niggas step up, respect be layed out

Major effect to your sector, I'm the corrector

Live and direct, waving my mic like a sceptor

Supreme exalted, universal leader

Descendent of the kings and queens, the overseer

The overlord, cream of the crop, crème de la crème

Spent years building with cats in the streets, so they my men

Again, Gang Starr has done it

Remember too much jewels back in the days?

You'd have to run it

Check it, the ground be hot under our feet

So we be listening to beats to keep the cypher complete

Whether you kids be holding on the block all day

Or you be puffing lye, out in the back hallway

Or whether you being schooled or in the library

Wherever you are, Baby Pah, realize that your essence

Is divine, son, and let it shine, son, as we refine, son

Ayo, this ****'ll blow your mind, son; we're royalty

Wherever I go, I want to take nothin' less than the best

Whatever I choose, I choose to do

I have to stand out from all the rest

Whatever I do, wherever I go

I want to take nothin' less than the best

Whatever I choose, I choose to do

I just wanna stand out from all the rest

And all the girls they want to spoil me

My honey anoints me with oils, G

After work she greets me, and treats me like royalty

Works with me, giving herself, by my side

She don't sweat me for loot, my fame, or my ride

A lot of ladies out there be lookin' lovely

But they don't got no control of their life, inside they're ugly

Word to Bugsy, and to Red Alert

Sway and Tech, and Funkmaster Flex to make your head jerk

Chicks go beserk when they see us in the spot

K-Ci, JoJo and Primo, creepin' to the top

And to the sweethearts out there breaking hearts

While we're taking part of this hip-hop art

Listen yo, the best way, it ain't always the fast way

And yes, the best way, it ain't always to act nasty

I'll open up the door always before you pass me

Baby Doll, because you're royalty

Wherever I go, I want to take nothin' less than the best

Whatever I choose, I choose to do

I have to stand out from all the rest

Whatever I do, wherever I go

I want to take nothin' less than the best

Whatever I choose, I choose to do

I just wanna stand out from all the rest
