Verse 1 Some of the busiest rhymes ever made by man Are goin' into this mic, written by this hand Are comin' out of this mouth, made by this tongue I'll tell you now my name, my name is Young But so you think that it's your destiny To get the best of me, but I suggest to be Quiet, bro', don't even try it from the east and west of me Takin' it and never breakin' it or even shakin' it Groovin' it and always movin' it, cuz I'm not fakin' it Pullin' out rhymes like books off the shelf Born in England, raised in Hollis, taught to go for myself This is stone cold rhymin', no frills, no fluffs And it's no accident that these rhymes sound tough I'm goin' off, baby, there's no turnin' back I'm on your TV, on your album, cassette and 8-track And when the show is finally finished I'll be takin' my bow My name is Young, and yo I got know-how, you know what I'm sayin'? I got know-how Party people, I got know... how I kick it just like this... Verse 2 I got juice like the president, I'm makin' rappers hesitant Invite me to your house and I'll be chillin' like a resident Yes, cuz I'm that type of man Cuz I make myself at home no matter where I am I got it rollin' like thunder, makin' y'all wonder Why I'm on top with all the other rappers under I make no errors, mistakes or blunders It's like a wedding, let no man put asunder My name is Young MC, I like to rock mic well Cuz when I get up on the mic I just release my spell It's no hocus-pocus, I'll just get you into focus And swarm all over you just like a horde of locusts Smooth operator, female persuader Spot a fly girl and in a week I'm gonna date her I got the kind of style for the here and the now And I can do it cuz I got know-how, you know what I'm sayin'? I got know-how Party people, I got know... how Bust it! Verse 3 MC's I'll ruin, cuz I know what I'm doin' I'll treat 'em like doublemint gum and start chewin' I spit 'em out when the flavour's gone And I repeat the chewin' practice 'til the break of dawn Cuz I'm tough like a bone, sly like Stallone Rockin' and clockin' on the microphone Smooth like a mirror, in hearts I strike terror Rhymes like runs and hits with no errors Cold like a blizzard, on the mic I am the wizard With the funky fresh rhymes comin' out of my gizzard Never sneezin', never coughin', I rock the mic often Hard as a rock and no sign I'll soften Makin' sure I get respect, on my mind rhymes connect I start to build like a builder from a architect Movin' all around, above and under the ground You see my face, and then you hear my sound Comin' atcha with the mic in hand I'm gonna take command just the way I planned Cuz I'm a one-man band and you are my fan Don't you understand? I'm like Superman Yeah, the Man of Steel, don't you know the deal?

I got know-how... and I'm chillin', never illin' In my mouth I got two fillin's... whatever! I'm on the mic, cold stone gettin' over My name is Young MC, known as the fly casanova, kick it...

Everybody's quittin' on things these days Falling for the shine of the easy way Ain't a lot of giving everything it takes Anymore and the more I look around Could use some more goin' when the goin' gets tough Less throwing in the towel when you've had enough What happened to the rollin' them sleeves up? Girl, I don't like the sound of that We ain't goin' down like that When it's said and done, we've had our run I wanna say, "We gave it all" No matter what the world say we don't gotta cave in Let's dance a dance, let's make a stand Let's take a swing like wrecking balls Oh, let's keep the faith when the stakes are high In the darkest days, in the dead of night And in the name of love We'll put on our gloves and fight Girl I know you like I know me And you ain't scared to dig down deep We trust the break through we can't see We know what's coming if we keep on keeping on rolling like this Smiling like that No one giving up didn't get us where we're at When it's said and done, we've had our run I wanna say, "We gave it all" No matter what the world say we don't gotta cave in Let's dance a dance, let's make a stand Let's take a swing like wrecking balls Oh, let's keep the faith when the stakes are high In the darkest days, in the dead of night And in the name of love We'll put on our gloves And fight, and fight For what's real and true and good and right Baby, let's sought on it back tonight When it's said and done We've had our run I wanna say, "We gave it all" No matter what the world say Yeah, we don't gotta cave in Let's dance a dance, let's make a stand Let's take a swing like wrecking balls Let's keep the faith when the stakes are high In the darkest days, in the dead of night In the name of love We'll put on our gloves and fight
