"If something is yours by right

Then fight for it, or shut up..."

Sí, aquí estamos con el Main Source

Con el Profesor Grande, Sir Scratch y K-Cut

Y vamos a hablar de los rappers que no pueden cantar


[Verse 1]

Rappers can dance, sing and shake their thing at the same time

But can't rhyme

They probably think that as long as they gettin' paid

They can sleep in the shade, but they'll fall like a cascade

While I drop skills over drum fills

They'll try to pick up some, and still sound slum

'Cause they didn't learn the fundamentals at this

And I insist that they get dissed

For fraud, their weak rap tunes keep me bored

Sore, due to the type of bullshit they record

Hey, and I make 'em concentrate on the songs I create

And kids can't wait to get they fork, knife and plate

So they can chew what I serve with the nerve

To call themselves real, but I know the deal

So I just place all their cards on the trap

Tell 'em to cut the crap, now let's rap


[Break]

Sí, ahí estaba el hablando de esos rappers

Que siempre están bailando

Y que no saben lo que están haciendo

Porque no saben cantar

Pero el Profesor, él sí sabe lo que está haciendo

Y él tiene música muy buena

Y nunca está bailando como esos pendejos

Que siempre están bailando por ahí

Y Sir Scratch and K-Cut

Ellos sí que saben DJ muy bueno

Tú sabes lo que estoy diciendo?


[Verse 2]

Now, all you rap clowns, let's go the seven rounds

And put down your imaginary crown

Or take it to the streets, with multiple beats

Get as loose as you want, flaunt, no beeps

This time when you rhyme, it won't be for a rock show

It'll be on the block, so

We can work like strainers, or filters

And find the raw remainders and the best builders

'Cause so many MC's get star struck

Get on stage and find out that they're washed up

'Cause some new jack took 'em out

But they was sleepin', so what's the surprised look about?

It ain't hard to tell that your records sell because your rhymes smell

And people scared of a brother that drop the bombshell

So to show and prove the fact, it's

Important that you come and show your tactics, ASAP

Let's rap


[Break]

Aquí estamos hablando ahora de los rappers

Que se están olvidando de la calle

Y que están tratando de cambiar sus canciónes

Y no saben lo que están haciendo

Pero que ya saben que Main Source

Ellos no son nuevos de dónde vienen

Y vienen de la calle y quieren hacer música para la calle

Entienden? Okay

Okay


[Verse 3]

Terror on wax, Large Professor, K-Cut and Sir Scratch

Kickin' it to kids that can't latch

On, to the meanin' of a real rap song

Just producin' corn, I like to warn

We built it up this far without sellin' out

And still got clout

So you continue to sell and be a sap

And when you're ready to snapback

I tell you let's rap

Sí, porque la gente se están olvidando

Y están tratando de cambiar la mente de ellos

Pero que así no era el objeto de antes

Que es diferente ahora, entienden?

Pero que la gente yo no me explico como son, OK?

Pues aquí estámos diciendo paz, y adios
