[ Featuring InI ]
Word turn on all the vocals, yeah
One time for your mind, INI flavor
My man DJ Scratch in the house
We do it like this, check it
The streets battle grows hotter so the I
Plays the role of a martyr
Touchin' every land on earth
Like a Harlem Globetrotter
With a message I praise
Tellin' brothers to raise their hands
And take a stand because we all understand
You have to bake the cake with grease
So let the batter release and make enough
So that we all get a piece
A slice for Mama Do, a slice for Papa Do
I come from Uptown and kid, that's how we do
I only speak for InI
I can't speak for your crew
So why would I waste my
Time to even stress you?
I keep my mind on bill
And plus increasin' the skills
Constant thoughts on other matters
Can't hear the idle chatters about
So I escape and take the funk route out
History's taught me what is all about
My destiny is fulfilled when I'm over and out
But I'll leave a part of me to
Cover all my accounts and I'm out
You always wanna be in the spotlight (Right)
The Center of Attention I
Also like to mention
INI rocks the spot (Right, yeah)
It's like that 'cause we keepin' it hot
Check it out, yo
See I prefer the player's approach so bust it
Joints bumpin' lovely
Skins is thick like custom plus the weapons
That keep you steppin' while I perfects
The art of microphone checkin'
You flow slick for a second but
Now it's Rob-O's dick you sweatin'
And at my show, you seem threatened
Why you stressin' the tense to quench
The strength of this swift microphonist
Your bitch attention is the bonus
Monotonous, cruisin' on this and
I got rhythm goddamn
Confuse the funk music, rock the jam
Pack the stand
Stack the grands and mack the female fans
At the local the-ather, the vocal creator
Slash I shall blast because you
Can't f*ck with me
I guess this is the way your luck will be
Frontin' much nerve with a rep
That you can't preserve step to I in '95
You gettin' served the method
''Center of Attention''
You always wanna be in the spotlight (Right)
The Center of Attention I
Also like to mention
INI rocks the spot (Right, yeah)
It's like that 'cause we keepin' it hot
Check it, yo does it truly pay to be
The Center of Attention?
The main attraction, gettin' all the action
People stoppin' the I with
Question after question
I spit a few replies and keep to my steppin'
Never been the weapon carryin'
Type but I'll incite
A riot, organize and never quiet
Don't try it, dissin' the I, there's no use
I bounce like a Cashar tape and get loose
Grippin' the mic, spittin' words I write
On the pad or the paper
This particular caper
Got 'nuff up's and down's, industry clowns
Jealous niggas tryna keep countin' my figures
But yo
I'm a spiritual millionaire droppin' bombs
Like King David when he wrote the Psalms
So what you need to do is listen up
Remain calm not ridin' a wave
Refuse to be a slave 'cause I'm the center
You always wanna be in the spotlight (Right)
The Center of Attention I
Also like to mention iNI rocks the spot
It's like that 'cause we keepin' it hot
(True)
Yo, you always wanna be in the spotlight
(Right) the Center of Attention I
