Do You Know Him

(Rise) Introducin'.... a new breed of MC...Rise, know wut I mean.. (Man) What is your name [Verse 1] Sometimes I'm glad that people don't know that I'm raw Cuz superstar rappers can't go to the grociery store Don't do it for tours, I do it for drawers, I hate the business And if I had a wish I'd just wish for more wishes With my extra wishes, fuck money fame and huge favors Fuck Bitches, I wish my eyes could shoot lasers The new greatest, the next rapper this great Would win a statuete carved in the shape of my face The early stages, my studio at home when I flipped it I make songs to make my name buzz like my equiptment From my mind to the paper, from the tip of a pen I kick rhymes with ill lines that you'll kick to your friends Over the beats, my name goes so much through the streets I'm told Rise was nice from cats that didn't know it was me Through life, I gained knowledge, rhymes to pass it on Record songs so I can talk shit after I'm gone Hook: (scratching) Repeat 2x's (Man) Do you know him... Rise (Woman) I don't think so... Rise (Man) What is your name... Rise (Woman) I Don't Know Him... Rise [Verse 2] Rise the type of cat to outshine you on tracks Give you a pat just to put a kick me sign on your back Cuz you're a sign that everybody thinks you can rap But that's aiight cuz everybody thought the planet was flat You ain't better, cuz you been rhymin' loner than Rise I been nice a few years, you been wack since '85 All the techniques, and styles, and the rhymes that you speak, STOLEN Talk is cheap, ya'll niggas is sheep in wolves clothn' Arrogant, used to be shy, but then I lost it Now I draw a line on the floor & dare you to cross it You forefeit, as long as my crew's breathin' Your clique will be shook at home talkin' turns sleepin' Paranoid, scared, waitin' for the attack In the mirror tellin' yourself that your better than that I'm wreckin' the tracks, I represent a rhyme for the streets Your whole song is phat except for the rhymes and the beats Hook repeat 2x's [Verse 3] Ya'll don't write, you pay for airplays and rhymes of the month A risin' star, I don't respect you cuz I do my own stunts The rap ward is run by morons, dude you don't get it That's why I simplify, to cater to the dimwitted When I spit it niggas gotta plan they're will's I gotta here em rip it, "everybody's man is Ill" I just show sometimes if I can be polite when you rap When I really wanna hum and hold my ears when you rap Don't care to be phat the way they introduce your rhymes But you battle about nothin' like women do at times If you ever flowin' with Rise, my level's goin' so high To the average human eye, I'm just a spot in the sky Makin it tho, Parade threw my face on the floor Behind bulletproof glass I'm encased like the Pope I'm too, big for these pawns can't stand it in here Nigga you too small, your feet still bang on your chairs Hook
