Lyrics Below Artist: Eric B and Rakim Song: Follow the Leader Album: Follow the Leader Verse One: Follow me into a solo Get in the flow - and you can picture like a photo Music mixed mellow maintains to make Melodies for MC's motivates the breaks I'm everlastin, I can go on for days and days With rhyme displays that engrave deep as X-rays I can take a phrase that's rarely heard, FLIP IT Now it's a daily word I can get iller than 'Nam, a killin bomb But no alarm - Rakim will remain calm Self-esteem make me super superb and supreme But for a microphone still I fiend This was a tape I wasn't supposed to break I was supposed to wait, but let's motivate I want to see who can keep followin and swallowin Takin the making, bitin it and borrowin Brothers tried and others died to get the formula But I'ma let ya sweat - you still ain't warm You a step away from frozen, stiff as if ya posin Dig into my brain as the rhyme gets chosen So follow me and were ya thinkin' you were first? Let's travel at magnificent speeds around the Universe What could ya say as the Earth gets further and further away Planets are small as balls of clay Astray into the Milky Way - world's outasight Far as the eye can see - not even a satellite Now stop and turn around and look As ya stare in the darkness, ya knowledge is took! So keep starin soon ya suddenly see a star You better follow it cause it's the R This is a lesson if ya guessin and if ya borrowin Hurry hurry step right up and keep followin The .... + Informações

I'm rated 'R'...this is a warning, ya better void, Poets are paranoid, DJ's D-stroyed, Cuz I came back to attack others in spite- Strike like lightnin', It's quite frightenin'! But don't be afraid in the dark, in a park, Not a scream or a cry, or a bark, more like a spark; Ya tremble like a alcoholic, muscles tighten up, What's that, lighten up! You see a sight but, Suddenly you feel like your in a horror flick, You grab your heart then wish for tomorrow quick! Music's the clue, when I come your warned, Apocolypse Now, when I'm done, ya gone! Haven't you ever heard of a MC-murderer? This is the death penalty,and I'm servin' a death wish, so come on, step to this hysterical idea for a lyrical professionist! Friday the thirteenth, walking down Elm Street, you come in my realm ya get beat! This is off limits, so your visions are blurry, All ya see is the meters at a volume, pumping Lyrics of Fury! it's a ....fearified freestyle! Terror in the styles, never error-files, indeed I'm known-your exiled! For those that oppose to be level or next to this... I ain't a devil and this ain't the Exorcist! worse than a nightmare, you don't have to sleep a wink, the pain's a migraine every time ya think, Flashbacks interfere, ya start to hear: The RAKIM in your ear; Then the beat is hysterical, that makes Eric go get a ax and chops the wack, soon the lyrical format is superior, faces of death remain, MC's decaying, cuz they never stayed, the scene of a crime every night at the show, the .... + Informações

Track 4 off of Eric B. & Rakim's debut album Paid in Full (1987). With commentary from GTA San Andreas. Lyrics: It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you Without a strong rhyme to step to Think of how many weak shows you slept through Time's up, I'm sorry I kept you Thinking of this, you keep repeating you miss The rhymes from the microphone soloist And you sit by the radio, hand on the dial, soon As you hear it, pump up the volume Dance wit the speaker 'till you hear it blow, Then plug in the headphone 'cause here it go It's a 4 letter word when it's heard, it control your body to dance (You got it) soul, Ditects the tempo like a red alert Reaches your reflex, so let it work When this is playing, you can't get stuck wit The steps, so get set and I'm a still come up wit A gift to be swift, follow the leader, the rhyme will go Def wit the record that was mixed a long time ago It can be done but only I can do it For those that can dance and clap your hands to it I start to think and then I sink Into the paper like I was ink When I'm writing, I'm trapped in between the lines, I escape when I finish the rhyme... I got soul You got it (4x) I know you got soul Picture a mic, the stage is empty A beat like this might tempt me To pose, show my rings and my fat gold chain Grab the mic like I'm on Soul Train But I'll wait 'cause I mastered this Let the others go first so the brothers don't miss Eric B. break the sticks (you got it) Rakim will begin when you make the mix I'll .... + Informações

Have you ever been stabbed in the back By someone you thought was really cool Did they steal your lover or was it money Or was it lies they told Strangers just disguise as your friends Never again cause now you know that Friends will let you down Friends won't be around When you need them most Where are your friends Friends are hard to find Friends yours and mine I'm talking 'bout your friends Smiles they hide behind Never know what's on their mind Could be true deception Jealousy and envy reign Never want 2 see you get ahead They just hold you back Friends will let you down Friends won't be around When you need them most Where are your friends Friends are hard to find Friends yours and mine I'm talking 'bout your friends (Rakim Rap) Friends are hard to find, so be careful You could find an inch or mile if I pay you But some ain't that bad, but one might back stab To get the fake tips of what one might have Bite the hand that feeds you, leave the people who need you For those who hold you back and mislead you To be a needle, don't get lead on unleaded The wrong direction, a dead ends next then Heed the detour, life's like a seesaw The ups and downs, and I'll bet there'll be more Potholes and obstacles in our path, that's righteous At times you need a hand to fight this Way of life, straighten up, take the door to the placid And don't you act two-faced Cause jealousy and envy, and you still act friendly You could find the end and pretend to be Friends will let you down .... + Informações

Track 1 from Eric B. & Rakim's debut album Paid in Full (1987). Lyrics: I aint no joke, I use to let the mic smoke Now I slam it when Im done and make sure its broke When Im gone I wrote this song cuz I wont let Nobody press up and mess up to seen I set I like to stand in a crowd and watch the people wonder damn Bu think about it then youll understand Im just an addict addicted to music Maybe its a habit, I gotta use it Even if its jazz or the quiet storm I hook a beat up convert it in a hip-hop form Write a rhyme in graffitti in every show you see me in Deep concentration cuz Im no comedian Jokers are wild if you wanna be tame I treat you like a child then youre gonna be named Another enemy, not even a friend of me Cuz youll get fried in the end if you pretend to be ? can be? cuz I just put your mind on pause And I can beat you when you compare my rhyme wit yours I wake you up and as I stare in your face you seem stun Remember me, the one you got your idea from But soon you start to suffer but you only get rougher When you start to stutter thats when you had enuff of Biting it, I make you choke, you cant provoke You cant cope, you should of broke cuz I aint no joke I got a question, its serious as cancer Who can keep the average dancer Hyper as a heart attack nobody smiling Cuz youre expressing the rhyme that Im styling This is what we all sit down to write You cant make it so you take it home, break it and bite Use pieces and bits of all the hip-hop hits Get the style .... + Informações
