I’m The Man (Tape Soul Remix) Lyrics by Hakeem Shakur

I’m The Man (Maxi Single)

2020

(On and on, to the break of dawn!)
(On and on, to the break of dawn!)
(On and on, to the break of dawn!)
[Verse 1: Hakeem Shakur]
Hakeem is back with the lyricism
Annihilatin’ ABC rappers wit’ no rhythm
Primitive-minded muthafuckas on the microphone
Must I dislocate your jawbone?
You really think you got it made?
Well then step up, and I’ll run that fade
Because you’re weak; you’re primitive
You got no rhythm; I’ll thot-slap the melatonin out your system
For you to see you’re in the presence of a master
My mind is like Flash; it only moves faster
Smarter than the average man
Now tell me who can do it better? No one can
Understand? Hakeem only gets bolder
I’ll ignite yo’ ass, like a flamethrower
‘Cuz I’m one of the best from the West
And a muthafucka betta not try to test
Yeah; with every step I take I cause earthquakes
With every breath I take, I make the waves fluctuate
I’m a walkin’ natural disaster
Like an avalanche; step in my path, I’ll smash ya
Roadkill for you culture vultures
Until I take my AR-15 and poach ya
Open season on you perpetrators
Starin’ into the eyes of danger
You can run, but you can’t hide
‘Cuz Hakeem is steady scopin’ on the passenger side
For the first muthafucka who thinks I’m a joke
I’ll whoop yo’ ass so bad, I’ll leave ya cranium broke
What! Why you keep wussin’?
Either grow some nuts or keep it pushin’
Now you went out like a busta
Get a clue; Hakeem is the man, muthafucka!
[Break]
(On and on, to the break of dawn!)
It goes...(on and on, to the break of dawn!)
I thought I told you muthafuckas that I won’t stop
It goes...(on and on, to the break of dawn!)
[Verse 2: Hakeem Shakur]
Hey batter batter, hey batter batter, swing
Lemme step up to the plate so I can do my thing
Bringin’ a executionary style; so prolific
Now lemme take ya mind on a mystic
Voyage, light years away from vague
Doin’ way too much damage like the, Bubonic Plague
Your monstrosity (???) atrocities
Like a horsepower engine, ain’t no stoppin’ me
So buckle up your seat belt; hold on tight
‘Cuz I’ma take flight at light speed
All you dark forces, I dismiss your existence
‘Cuz I have no tolerance for belligerence
Walking in the midst of confusion
With mental cuts, scrapes, abrasions and contusions
Casualties; that’s my normality
As I diminish your falsified reality
Perversion and sickness overtakes the land
But with the mic in my hand
You should all know that’s a no-no
I’ll break you muthafuckas down with a lyrical fo’ fo’!
And if I catch you on the street, I’ll smack ya
Matter fact, castrate ya; now call me The Nutcracker
‘Cuz I don’t love you heathens
I’ll smite ya, wit’ my shank, ‘til I’m the last one breathin’
[Break]
Yeah...
Yeah...it goes (on and on, to the break of dawn!)
It goes...(on and on, to the break of dawn!)
I thought I told ya that I won’t stop; I thought I told ya that I won’t stop, yeah, it goes (on and on, to the break of dawn!)
(On and on, to the break of dawn!)
One more time...(on and on, to the break of dawn!)
[Instrumental outro]
