Song Lyrics

Kings from Queens from Queens come Kings
We`re raisin` hell like a class when the lunchbell rings
The king will be praised and hell will be raised
S s s suckers try to faze `im but D won`t be fazed.
So what`s your name DMC the king is me
Your Highness or His Majesty
Now you can debate ci ci ci concentrate
But you can`t imitate DMC the Great!

Dissin' all devils causing havoc in hell
At a very high level bass and treble shall yell
Heard in the heaven of a sound supreme,
So clear to the ear it is sometimes seen!
So loud like a cloud with thunder and lightning
So proud to the crowd it is somewhat frightening
No calm in a storm like a beast unleashed
There's no stoppin' cause the rockin' cannot cease!
BREAK!

You see it's harder than hard, not one bit soft
Courageous and contageous so you better break North
Not a cold on a roll did you hear me cough?
Just listen while I`m dissing cause you`re pissin` me off
Cold betting its spreading all across your face
You can`t take when I break and if that`s the case
I go on and on and kick the bass
So back up off the cup while I take my taste...

It`s highly appraised when the hell is raised
So demanding and commanding that you all stand dazed
The unbelieving receiving prophecies so true
I cut the head off the Devil and I throw it at you.
My mighty mic control already brought his soul
The rock King is so bold when he rocks and roll
A black hat is my crown, symbolizing the sound,
signifying, we won`t play around.
BUST IT!

Rhymin` and climbin` beat makin` every day
No synthesizer sound so silence when I say
I am great get it straight cause that`s my fate
My name is Run I`m number 1
That`s how I rate
He`s in the place with the bass and styl`n grace
His name is J he`s here to play and win this race
He`s off the wall on the ball his name is D
Kind of tall yes y`all he`s down with me

From the mountain valley to the deep blue sea
The word is heard as told by D
I don't sing, I bring much delight
Like a star shining bright in the darkest night
If you are cold I`ll bring you heat
Like I brought the world my funky beat
Mysterious so serious I ain`t no joke
Fire from the depths of hell and you can smell the smoke.

Kickin` and tickin` while you`re havin` a ball
Like chicken finger lickin` I`ll be flick`n you all
So do the bird have you heard did they give you a call
Just me and DMC cold shakin` the walls

There`s no fearin` when hearin` sound of this kind,
across the land every man is going out of his mind.
On the face of the earth spreadin` like disease
contaminating, infiltrating like a horde of bees!

Lord of Lyrics, Duke of Discussion,
Ruler of rock, the King of Col` Crushing.
Ruler of people, controller of crowds
Lingering lyrics long lasting and loud
Left y`all ah to the left y`all
because I rock upon the mic real def y`all
And to the right y`all ah to the right y`all
because I rock upon the mic all night y`all

You see I want respect if I`m correct
They`re all like a ball that I have checked
And the shots they take have no effect
Some punk tried to dunk but he broke his neck
Cause I rock harder and I get farther
You want to battle D hey please don`t bother
To waste your time messin with my rhyme,
The only kick you`ll get out of it is in your behind!
