I was alarmed by the morning news
So I threw a tiger palm strike to the snooze
Smashed it pieces, but I was sleepless
So I arose and crafted a thesis
Roaches love tooth paste, they'll eat it all night
So leave the cap on, pass the mic
And I'll teach you how to get a rap on
Shed some light for you to clap on
All the rudegirls call me Space Rocker #1
It's the Ward Chief MC Devlin
Never partied out like Phil in the Gremlin
While you're tremblin', I'm steady assemblin'
Alive as I drive a Durango 95, I'm taking a dive
If you're feeling sad I got a junkyard dog
and a bass-line shaking the hive
It's a real jam-splitter, with a neural transmitter
taking your taste buds from sour to bitter
Stand back y'all, it's a powerful hitter
Play the warning track, go on
Clean up all the litter while you're out there
Everybody shout "yeah"!
Gonna bring it down here for the world renown man who makes you loco
It's Mr.McKinney, to derail a train from the track with a penny
And then there's me, the mayor of Loungopolis
Laid back on the mic for the populace
I offer your section rap protection
Phone the DJ, make a selection
In Boston with a big dog in no muzzle
Trying to run, I got you caught in the middle
Crossing words up, forming a puzzle
Then I will shake the can n' tag you up with a riddle
Brightly shone is a signal lit like a shimmering phantom in the sky
As you ask yourself in these times of violence
"How will I ever survive?"
Let me be Frank, like Castle, I'm gonna get lethal
Even Buddha had to conquer evil
We're living in a city full of peril and danger
Where it is a gamble even leaving the manger
That's why I'm rockin' these spiky gauntlets
Lots of gangs want to crush me to bits
Even if they kill me I'll haunt through hits
I'll be dead and my wits still burn through mitts
Trying to handle the masters tools, chances are you'll get cut
While you're lifting weights, I'm shifting plates
'til all the volcanoes erupt
I stir up the rivers and roil the seas
Heat up the oil for boiling thieves
Rising high above a redwood tree
Is an uppercase M and a capital C
Galaxy to Galaxy there is no place we can't go
When Devlin's on the microphone and Dan is on piano
MC Rises, full of surprises, master of disguises
We're fully permitted to demolish your demo
Didn't you get the memo?
Podemos volar por todos las nebulosas
Cuando M C se enloquece con las cosas
MC Rises
