And I watch ya
 Three second later
 I got ya shakin' your head
 Dancin' instead of sittin'
 The rhymes kick
 The beats hittin' you
 Just like a home run
 Slammin' like a slam dunk
 Riding the wave that James Brown gave funk
 It happened to James like it happened to me
 How you think I feel to see another MC
 Gettin' paid   usin' my rap style
 And I'm playn' the background meanwhile
 I ain't with that
 You can forget that
 You took my style
 I'm takin' it back
 I'm come back like "Return of the Jedi"
 Sucker MC's in the place that said I
 Could only rock rhymes
 Only rock crowds
 But never rock records

 How ya like me now (x2)

 Now brothers are riding me
 Like a pony
 I'm no phony
 I'm the only real micaroni
 Playin' the mic like it's supposed to be played
 New jacks,you all shoulda stayed out of the business
 What is this,amateur night at the Apollo?
 Get off this stage,I'm in a rage
 I'm like a lion that's been trapped in a cage
 I'm the real king , rap is a jungle
 I never understood,how could one go
 To a party,watch me,stand around and jock me
 Become a rapper,then try to rock me
 Scheming like a demon,you're screamin' and dreamin'
 I'm from the old school,I used to see men
 Dies for less,but I'm not living that way
 I'll let my mic do the talkin'
 And let the music play

 How ya like me now (x2)

 Rap is an art
 And I'm a Picasso
 But of course
 Why else would you try so
 Hard to paint a picture, and try to get ya
 Self in my shoes,but they won't fit ya
 I'm bigger and better,forget about deffer
 Every time I rocked the mic,I left a
 Stain in your brain that will remain
 Stuck in the back of your brain till you see me
 Again,respect,I come correct
 The rhymes I select are nothing short of
 Vernacular's pure and I can insure
 Life od death with my breath,my voice is a cure
 I heal life from the words I spread
 I'll make a sick man rock on his death bed
 Sucker MC's , I'll make your girl say "ow"
 She's jockin'

 How ya like me now (x2)

 It irked my nerve
 When I heard
 A sucker rapper that I know I'll serve
 Run around town sayin' he is the best
 Is that a test?
 I'm not impressed
 Get real,you're nothin' but a toy
 Don't ya know I'll serve that boy
 Just like a waiter
 Hit'em with a place of
 These fresh rhymes and
 Make sure that he
 Pays the bill,and leave him standin' still
 When he's had enough,hit him with a refil
 And for dessert it won't be no ice cream
 I'm just gonna splatter and shatter his pipe dream
 Make him feel the wrath,beat him and laugh
 Then when I finish them,I'm gonna ask him
 Who's the bests,and if he don't say Moe Dee
 I'll take my whip and make him call himself Toby
 Put him on punishment just like a child,then ask

 How ya like me now

 Whip him good,then I'll make him sweat
 Talkin' about battles and never had a battle yet
 But if we ever did
 How could you beat me
 You're so petrified
 Even scared to meet me
 My word's the law
 That's why you don't beef
 You're nothing but a punk,track star,and a thief
 So I'm puttin' you on punishment
 Just like a child
 Never touch another mic

 How ya like me now (x2)

 I could continue
 There's more on the menu
 But relax 'cos I'm so far in you
 You had enough
 I know you're overstuffed
 If I keep going
 You'll be throwin' up
 Old rhymes I used to say
 Back in the day
 When you used to me
 To my parties and pay
 Nobody's ever gonna rack me
 This I vow
 So all I wanna say is

 How ya like me now (X2)

 How ya like me now ( fade out with echo
