Big Daddy Kane - Long Live the Kane Lyrics

Party people in the place
Embrace the bass as I commence to pick up the pace
And make you motivate, and accelerate
Cause like Tony the Tiger, I抦 greeeat!
Always seem to come off, hard for you somehow
I mean me being wack, oh come come now
That抯 quite ridiculous, so just admit you was
Thrilled, it抯 on your face, and it抯 conspicuous
Not that you抮e on this, but my performance
Is rather exquisite, so hard is it
Or supremacy, that抯 the perfect definition
But rappers keep wishing to be in my position
Know good and damn well they ain抰 no competition
Huh, I gotta give it to you kid, that抯 ambition
For you to perpetrate the role of me, the Big Daddy
The Big Father, naah, don抰 even bother
Cause that would mean you would have to teach
Each and every one idiotic son
Trying to make it, you can抰 fake it
The rhymes I recite are fully dressed and yours are butt naked
Your speech is weak, while my mine stands strong
So, all hail the man that抯 here to live long



You know you heard this voice before somewhere
And when I said that I抦 the Kane, you said 搊h yeah!?That brother that used to rhyme on stage with Biz
Oh he抯 def,?you know what time it is
But this time I抦 not assisted on the microphone
More like Patti Labelle, on my own
Just single-handed, the mic I commanded
Phony MC抯 don抰 understand it, and it
Is the real thing like the taste of Coke
So never sleep on me, better stay awoke
Like a gambler in Vegas, I go for broke
To make a long story short, yo I ain抰 no joke
I take time and care in whatever I抦 doing
And when I rock a party, I make sure that you en-
Joy what you抮e hearing as I entertain
So hip hip hoolay, long live the Kane



I got the freedom of speech to use it anyway that I choose it
So all hail to the music
On exhibit, get with it, now here抯 my ring
The original supreme being Black man
Point blank, the cream to rise supreme
As those go below like a submarine
Reaching and teaching a lesson that I抦 giving
Addressing and impressing the crowd, so how we living?
Fine in mind, to decline is out of line
So pardon this brother as I give you mine
To say I抦 not, don抰 even diss yourself
Cause at times, I have to jump back and kiss myself
Long live the K, the A, the N, the E
I say the end will be
A big movement, by the time I抦 through
And that抯 coming from a Black man抯 point of view



Now pardon me for just changing the issue
But all you sucker MC抯, it抯 a must that I diss you
The way y抋ll be fronting has made me disgusted
Now I抦ma set you straight, so so yo yo, bust it
Rappers try and hang and just swear that they can party
But the style that I抦 using is just like karate
So if we ever battle you抮e bound to be through
Because I got a black belt in Rap Can Do
No I抦 not Chinese, it抯 just rhymes like these
That destroy an MC with black belt degrees
You抮e rocking a party, trying so hard to get loose
Kid sound awiiite, but I can抰 taste the juice
Therefore, the job is left to me
So I get the party kicking just like Bruce Lee
But I won抰 stop there, I still rock a little harder
While the toy MC抯 step and say, Sayonara!

Long Live the Kane! (x2)
Break it down!
