An assasinator, if the people ain't stepping
The microphone fiend
Beware, it's the reanamator
You see a part of me that you never seen
Cool 'cause I don't get upset
Before you go, you'll remember you seen
Take it to the maximum, I can't relax see
Fitted like pieces of puzzles complicated
One after the other one, then I make another one
So close your eyes and hold your breath
The thrill of suspense is intense, you're horrified
When I'm fiending for a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend
The microphone fiend
I'm hype as a hyperchrondriac 'cause the rap be one
By any means necessary, this is what has to be done
You can't solve it, silly rabbit
E F F E C T, a smooth operator operating correctly
Vocals, vocabulary, your verses, just stuck in
The mic is a Drano, volcanoes erupting
I get a craving like I fiend for nicotine
Feed me Hip hop and I start trembling
Hell of a antidote, something you can't smoke
A menace to a microphone, a lethal weapon
To dis the opposite then ask if the brother's done
But back to the problem, I gotta habit
Now I don't want to have to let off, you should of kept off
For those who act up need to be more than smacked up
If that don't slow 'em up, I carry a full pack
Back to the lab without a mic to grab
I wrote the rhyme that broke the bull's back
'Cause I grabbed the mic and try to say, yes y'all
Give me a stage and a mic and a mix
The microphone fiend
And I'll put you in a mood or is it a state of unawareness?
It's inherited, it's runs in the family
Magnetized by the mixing
So then I add all the rhymes I had
Make way 'cause here I come, my DJ cuts material, grand imperial
But I don't need a cigarette, know what I mean?
Rhymes overflowing, gradually growing, everything is written in the cold
One on one and I'm the remainder
The prescription is a hyper tone that's thorough when
Soon as the bass kicks, I need a fix
Music orientated so when hip hop was originated
I fiend for a microphone like heroin
A past time hobby about to be
The microphone fiend
Don't it sound amazing 'cause every rhyme is made and
But this ain't the cinemas of 'Tales From the Dark Side'
Any entertainer, I got a torture chamber
Ladies and Gentleman, you're about to see
I'm raging, ripping up the stage and
You didn't keep the stage warm, step off
It's a must that I bust any mic you're hand to me
More than cracked up, you should have backed up
The fiend of a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend
And I'm a hit'cha wit the blow of death
I kick a hole in the speaker pull the plug then I jet
More than dope, you're trying to move away but you can't, you're broke
The invincible, microphone fiend Rakim, spread the word, 'cause I'm in
Thought of, 'cause it's sort of an addiction
After twelve, I'm worse that a Gremlin
They tried to take it and say that I'm too small
So it can coincide, my thoughts to guide, forty-eight tracks to slide
