Lyte As A Rock Lyrics

I am the Lyte 'a-a-a-a-a-a-as-as-a-rock' L-Y, L-L-Y-T-E 

(repeat 3X) 


[Milk] 

Do you understand the metaphoric phrase 'Lyte as a Rock?' 

It's explaining, how heavy the young lady is 

You know what I'm saying King? 


[King of Chill] 

Yes my brother, but I would consider 'Lyte as a Rock' 

a simile because of the usage of the word 'as' 

And now.. directly from the planet of Brooklyn 

MC Lyte -- as a Rock! 


[MC Lyte] 

Must I say it again, I said it before 

Move out the way when I'm comin through the door 

Me, heavy? As Lyte as a Rock 

Guys watch, even some of girls clock 

Step back, it ain't that type of party 

No reply if you ain't somebody 

Get out my face, don't wanna hear no more 

If you hate rejection, don't try to score 

First base? You ain't got what it takes 

You smile, you wink, you big fake flake 

You're so pathetic you make my stomach turn 

You beg, you borrow, now you have to learn 


I am the Lyte 'a-a-a-a-a-a-as-as-a-rock' L-Y, L-L-Y-T-E 

(repeat 2X) 


[MC Lyte] 

Lyte as a Rock, or I should say a boulder 

Rolling down your neck, pounding on your shoulders 

Never shall I be an emcee, called a wannabe 

I am the Lyte, L-Y-T-E 

This is the way it is, don't ever forget 

Hear the rhyme by someone else and you know they bit 

All in the way, just little obstacles 

Chew em up, spit em out, just like popsicles 

Suckers out of my way, we're not on the same wavelength 

I show stability, potential and strength 

On the other hand, you are weak and unruly 

Could never be a spy, cause you're just a plain stoolie 


I am the Lyte 'a-a-a-a-a-a-as-as-a-rock' L-Y, L-L-Y-T-E 

(repeat 2X) 


 
[MC Lyte] 

I'm a slave, I'm a slave, I'm a slave to the rhythm 

Def rhymes on the micraphone is what I'm givin 

Yes I am a Rock and you are just a pebble 

Milk turn up the base, and Rock adjust the levels 

If a rap can paint a thousand words then I can paint a million 

Wait, Lyte is capable of paintin a bazillion raps 

So when I say it, this is what I mean 

Audio Two an alliance on the scene 

and I'd like to say whassup to my producer King of Chill 

Party people are you ready, jam if you will 

Never underestimate Lyte the Emcee; I am a rapper who is here 

to make the things the way they're meant to be 

The World Ultimate, I'm here to take the title 

but I had a little trouble upon, my arrival 

But I got rid of those who, tried to rock me 

Lyte is here, no one can stop me 


I am the Lyte 'a-a-a-a-a-a-as-as-a-rock' L-Y, L-L-Y-T-E 

(repeat 2X) 


[MC Lyte] 

There are Hip-Hop leaders, this you know 

We also have, hip-hoppers that follow 

By the tone of my voice, you can tell I am a scholar 

I'm also the leader of the hip-hop followers 

Now get this, I'm at a jam and I'm rockin it 

Suckers like a checkerboard, when black is clockin it 

The grace as I ease across the stage 

Bars around the audience, sort of like a cage 

They laugh, cause they assume I'm in prison 

but in reality, they're locked in 

Once again I'll state that I can't be stopped 

cause yo, I am as Lyte, as, Rock! 


I am the Lyte 'a-a-a-a-a-a-as-as-a-rock' L-Y, L-L-Y-T-E 

(repeat 6X) 


I am the Lyte 'a-a-a-a-a-a-as-as-a-rock' L-Y, L-L-Y-T-E 

(repeat 4X) 


I am the Lyte 'a-a-a-a-a-a-as-as-a-rock' L-Y, L-L-Y-T-E 

(repeat 4X to fade)
