We are here to tell the world just who we are
Shocking female (MC’s), shocking female (MC’s) (Repeat 2x)

Verse 1: Phife

No need for, introductions, cause I know you know my name and
Knocking MC’s out the frame and, putting them suckers to shame and
I live for hip-hop, so I have no time for fun and games and
So just come and peep the unique styles we are displaying
The beat’s just ridiculous, the lyrics articulate
Feels good, as if a girl just touched her c——s
Sucker MC’s, I’m killing ’em, I’m so sick of seeing ’em
Silly s–t when they rhyme, like that red rugby shirt worn by Gilligan
Plus the hat, they s–t is wack
When you see me coming take ten steps back
I make usage of the pronouns, adjectives, verbs
My granny says “You always had a way with words”
And that’s because my word is bond, lyrics are laws
Sucker MC’s look at me like I’m friggin’ eye sore

Verse 2: Posdnuos

Here comes a brother hipping others on the style they lack
I’ve always rhymed abstract, I even know the brother named Abstract
I am the earner of the soul in mine
Forget the physical cause the physical will die with time
I’m shaped to vibrate in definite proportions
Of the kids who need the fix (Just listen to the mix)
