Don't sweat the technique
ย
Don't sweat the technique
ย
Let's trace the hits and check the file
Let's see who bit to detect the style
I flip the script so they can't get foul
At least not now, it'll take a while
I change the pace to complete the beat
I drop the bass 'til MCs get weak
For every word they trace, it's a scar they keep
'Cause when I speak, they freak to sweat the technique
I made my debut in '86
With a melody and a president's mix
And now I stay on target and refuse to miss
And I still make hits with beats
For parties, clubs, and for cars and Jeeps
My underground sound vibrates the streets
MCs wanna beef, then I play for keeps
When they sweat the technique
ย
Don't sweat the technique
ย
They wanna know how many rhymes have I ripped and wrecked
But research has never found all the pieces yet
Scientists try to solve the context
Philosophers are wonderin' what's next
Pieces are took to labs to observe 'em
They couldn't absorb 'em, they didn't deserve 'em
My ideas are only for the audience ears
For my opponents, it might take years
Pencils and pens are swords
Letters put together form a key to chords
I'm also a sculpture, formed with structure
Because of my culture, I'm equipped to construct a
Technical style that'll be full of technology
Complete, sights of new heights after I get deep
You don't have to speak, just seek
And peep the technique
ย
But don't sweat the technique
ย
I speak indiscreet 'cause talk is cheap
Then I get deep in the beat then complete
Composed with physique, never weak or obsolete
They never grow old, techniques become antiques
Better than somethin' brand new 'cause it's original
In a while, style'll have much more value
Classical, too intelligent to be radical
Masterful, never irrelevant, mathematical
Here's some soothin' souvenirs for all the years
You fought the sword for thoughts and ideas
It's cool when you freak to the beat
But don't sweat the technique
Don't sweat the technique
Don't sweat the technique
