Know How Lyrics
[00:32.60] Some of the busiest rhymes ever made by man
[00:34.71] Are goin' into this mic, written by this hand
[00:36.72] Are comin' out of this mouth, made by this tongue
[00:39.01] I'll tell you now my name, my name is Young
[00:40.64] But so you think that it's your destiny
[00:41.96] To get the best of me, but I suggest to be
[00:43.41] Quiet, bro', don't even try it from the east and west of me
[00:45.42] Takin' it to never breakin' it to even shakin' it
[00:46.93] Groovin' it to always movin' it, 'cuz I'm not fakin' it
[00:48.95] Pullin' out rhymes like books off the shelf
[00:51.02] Born in England, raised in Hollis, taught to go for myself
[00:53.27] This is stone cold rhymin', no frills, no fluffs
[00:55.21] And it's no accident that these rhymes sound tough
[00:57.59] I'm goin' off, baby, there's no turnin' back
[00:59.25] I'm on your TV, on your album, cassette and 8-track
[01:01.59] And when the show is finally finished I'll be takin' my bow
[01:03.50] My name is Young, and yo I got know how, you know what I'm sayin'?
[01:09.65] I got know how
[01:14.94] Party people, I got know how
[01:20.65] I kick it just like this
[01:22.55] I got juice like the president, I'm makin' rappers hesitant
[01:24.55] Invite me to your house and I'll be chillin' like a resident
[01:26.39] Yes, 'cuz I'm that type of man
[01:28.64] 'Cuz I make myself at home no matter where I am
[01:30.61] I got it rollin' like thunder, makin' y'all wonder
[01:32.87] Why I'm on top with all the other rappers under
[01:34.52] I make no errors, mistakes or blunders
[01:36.92] It's like a wedding, let no man put asunder
[01:38.95] My name is Young MC, I like to rock mic well
[01:40.96] 'Cuz when I get up on the mic I just release my spell
[01:42.18] It's no hocus-pocus, I'll just get you into focus
[01:44.10] And swarm all over you just like a horde of locusts
[01:47.19] Smooth operator, female persuader
[01:48.93] Spot a fly girl and in a week I'm gonna date her
[01:50.63] I got the kind of style for the here and the now
[01:53.08] And I can do it 'cuz I got know how, you know what I'm sayin'?
[01:56.08]
[01:58.88] I got know how
[02:01.60] Party people, I got know how
[02:10.81] Bust it
[02:14.17]
[02:22.81]
[02:28.57] MC's I'll ruin, 'cuz I know what I'm doin'
[02:30.34] I'll treat 'em like Doublemint gum and start chewin'
[02:32.26] I spit 'em out when the flavor's gone
[02:34.02] And I repeat the chewin' practice 'til the break of dawn
[02:36.25] 'Cuz I'm tough like a bone, Sly like Stallone
[02:38.05] Rockin' and clockin' on the microphone
[02:39.89] Smooth like a mirror, in hearts I strike terror
[02:42.57] Rhymes like runs and hits with no errors
[02:44.76] Cold like a blizzard, on the mic I am the wizard
[02:47.08] With the funky fresh rhymes comin' out of my gizzard
[02:48.56] Never sneezin', never coughin', I rock the mic often
[02:50.53] Hard as a rock and no sign I'll soften
[02:52.81] Makin' sure I get respect, on my mind rhymes connect
[02:54.75] I start to build like a builder from a architect
[02:56.34] Movin' all around, above and under the ground
[02:58.88] You see my face and then you hear my sound
[03:00.75] Comin' atcha with the mic in hand
[03:02.90] I'm gonna take command just the way I planned
[03:04.92] 'Cuz I'm a one-man band and you are my fan
[03:06.98] Don't you understand? I'm like superman
[03:08.94] Yeah, the man of steel, don't you know the deal?
[03:10.99] You better be for real, I got sex appeal
[03:12.66] This is what I feel and this here's my vow
[03:15.53] And now you know the brother with know how
[03:16.77] You know what I'm sayin'?
[03:20.28] I got know how and I'm chillin', never illin'
[03:25.26] In my mouth I got two fillin's, whatever
[03:30.16] I'm on the mic, cold stone gettin' over
[03:32.46] My name is Young MC, known as the fly Casanova, kick it
[03:33.96]
[00:34.71] Are goin' into this mic, written by this hand
[00:36.72] Are comin' out of this mouth, made by this tongue
