Serious Business

Lyrics

[Intro] We're about to kick it, guys We're about to, we're about to... We're about to kick it right here, listen! We're about to, we're about to... Uh, uh! Serious business! Listen! [Verse 1] This is for the peeps who be askin' me how I do it Also for the peeps who think that I put way too much into it Sacrificin' sleep to make the ends meet congruent The hardest core language is one of which I am fluent The school of representin' forever I'll be a student Graduated with honors and now I'm here on stage to prove it Kick a fresh beat to get all of ya heads movin' Sing the verse with me or any words of your choosin' When I say I'm real, bitch, better know that I'm truthin' I put 100% into everything I sink my tooth in Other whack bitches be fakin', they cartoonin' That shit ain't computin' that's really and darn tootin' When they say they serious man, it gets me fumin' 'Cause they don't go all the way to the top, they ain't improvin' They cruisin' for a bruisin' Hadoukens and Shoryukens Let me sing the chorus and get you clued in [Chorus] When he steps up to the mike It's serious business When he steps up to the mike It's serious business [Verse 2] Breakin' the molds I'm makin' precidents shatter I keep the mike electrified like Jacob's ladder Refining my rhymes to be divine is what I'm after And teach it to the next generation, the next chapter Haters talk shit, I pull out my bitch smacker Slap 'em up good then eat 'em like a fish snacker Stand up for my shit while others stay on the crapper The don't work like Duck Hunt without a zapper Call me A-Maggedon, I bring global disaster You know I gotta stay underground like Blaster Master Put your hands to the air like Badger Badger 'Cause it just don't matta... [Chorus 2] When he steps up to the mike It's serious business (serious) When he steps up to the mike It's serious business (oh no!) When he steps up to the mike It's serious business (oh, baby!) When he steps up to the mike It's serious business [Post-Chorus] When A_Rival steps to the mike Serious business When I step up to the mike Ooh, serious business Get down, yo [Collision] [Outro] A_Rival style Oh, yes, serious Hip-hop Oh, yeah, serious 8-bit Oh, yes, serous Hexa-decibel Oh, yeah, serious Michael Music Oh, yes, serious Fake scratchin' Oh, yeah, serious B-boying Oh, yes, serious Everybody in the crowd! Oh, yeah, serious Let's bring it! It's serious business, baby!
