Step Up (1999 Demo) [B-Side Rarities]
作词 : Linkin Park
作曲 : Linkin Park
Watch as the room rocks
Mentally moonwalk
Mixed media slang banging in your boombox
Verbal violence
Lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip-hop rhymes are childish
You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rappin' to a beat doesn't make you an emcee
With your lack of skill and facility you're killing me
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard that some of you are gettin' help with your rhymes
You're not an emcee if someone else writes your lines
Rappin' over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
Cuz rock and hip-hop have collaborated for years
But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck
And all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up
None of its real
You wanna be an emcee
You gotta study the skill
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Step step up step step up
So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally you don't have the hip-hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
It sounded like the only hip-hop you've heard is top-40
And your record company's completely missed it
And all the kids are dissin' it for not being legitimate
So in a battle you can't hack it
React with whack s**t and get smacked with verbal backflips
Get your a*s kicked I'm a fabulous battle catalyst
It's taken decades for emcees to establish this
You're new to hip-hop and welcome if you're serious
But not on a mike leave that to the experienced
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Step step up step step up
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Step step up step step up step up
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Step step up step step up
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this
Step step up step step up step up
