I got a question Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Ask yourself this question Do you want to be One among the few and chosen The title of MC Is harder to achieve than many wanna believe Been deceived in perceiving this MC-ing with ease Please, paying dues without collecting fees Until your time to shine You probably rhymin' for free In places otherwise you wouldn't go Unconcerned faces recognize you as the average Joe With no release date You get the least consideration For crowd participation The people, they've been waiting For the hottest sensation With a rep and credentials Not someone abusing overused instrumentals Sounding like you never rocked a mic A single day in your life Realizing that you're really not quite as tight As your boys made you think you are Wanna be MC superstar But you're far from the truth The proof is in the lack of applause And a pause Followed by immediate discharge The public at large Is calling you a fraud This is what you gotta take to heart Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Believe me The rhyming part's easy But in this game It gets greasy You're looking for the bread But dough here is measly Mcs be seeing their CDs as frisbees Need be finding something better with their lives (Why) Too many rappers sound alike on the mic Mic here to shed light D be my witness Ain't no money in this If you ain't handling business Even if you sign the dotted line You may find That the rhyme that you say is mine Cause you never mind the fine print Not the heaven sent gift you got You gave away To a label for a short term thrill Got gypped on your own skill Just to sign a deal Sort of ill Your bonus looking more like a bill Yet and still Goes another brother falling off the cliff Once an MC Now the driver of a forklift It ain't where you're from Or where you're at It's about who you know And who did your track So take a step back To see what you made 'Cause who's the last one to get paid? Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, ask yourself, just ask yourself Do you wanna be an MC Ask yourself, just ask yourself, ask yourself Do you wanna be C'mon yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself (what)
