[Hook: Samples]
“Once upon a time, upon this mic” - Sample from Beastie Boys - “Right Right Now Now”
“Emcees be really working on what they write” - Sample from Beastie Boys - “Right Right Now Now”
“Money, hoes, and clothes, blunt smoke coming out” - Sample from The Notorious B.I.G. - “Niggas”
“The nose is all a nigga knows” - Sample from The Notorious B.I.G. - “Niggas”
“Me never, never, never, never cross over (Come on!)” - Sample from KRS-ONE on Funkmaster Flex ft. KRS-ONE - “KRS-ONE Speech”

“I’ll never cross over” - Sample from KRS-ONE on Funkmaster Flex ft. KRS-ONE - “KRS-ONE Speech” (x2)
[Verse 1: SciryL]
I said-a
Hip hop, a hip a Big Poppa
I love it when they call me “Witch Doctor.” Dr. Dre
Or Dr. Oz (Which one?), Dr. J, modern times
Dr. King meets Dr. Spock (Huh?). Writing rhymes, this
The life and times of Scott La Rock (Right), died at 25
Same age Pac was shot. We in the same age
Of boom bap, Boogie Down, Bad Boy, Basquiat
Crack-cocaine, Kurt Cobain, Kakarot
Fusion of rapping, rock, iPhone, Macintosh
Black Lives Matter, black astronauts, people saying
“Back in my day, we ain’t have a rock, we ain’t
Have to question if the president was gonna be black or not”
As for ManKind, this a fusion of Shaq and Nas
Ali mixed with a rap Lebron, Kweli
Mobb Deep vagabond riding on a satellite
Passing times for the bragging rights half the time
ManKind

“Me never, never, never, never go commercialalalalalal” - Sample from KRS-ONE on Funkmaster Flex ft. KRS-ONE - “KRS-ONE Speech”
[Verse 2: !LLumiN@TE]
Uh, I said-a
Hip hop, number one “Chief Rocka”
Doug E. Fresh-to-death beatboxer, stick and move
Hit the groove, block parties, Bacardi dark
Park jams made your “Body Rock,” “Don’t Stop ‘Til You
Get Enough,” Rock Steady. Crack rock made
The block heavy, had to grow up fast
Hot stove, cooking blow on gas—it’s electric
Grandmaster Flash had “The Message,” Grandmaster
Caz was a weapon, South Bronx veteran
Black Power, ex-Con Edison, train cars
Bomb elegant. Mayor Koch calling us all
Terrorists, more “I declare war” rhetoric
For “Soul Rebels,” the rap revolution
Next phase: black evolution. Two turn-
-tables and an Iron Mike, mic check
Chin-check with the right-left, “Mama Said Knock
You Out”
