Return of the Emcee Lyrics

It’s the return of the emcee, I’m bringing it all back
The rhymes, the breaks and the b-boy stance
With a modern twist, I don’t adhere to any list
Get the gist, look at what I’m holding in my fist
It’s called a microphone, and I spit magic
Everytime I get on stage, the crowd goes manic
When I spit lyrical words that I create
It’s like a quake the way I make the speakers rumble
I don’t dumb it down, I just smarten it up
Talk about real issues, give you bang for your buck
Some would say that I’m just riding on dumb luck
It took me years to learn this skill, so critics better duck
Cause I’m here to restore balance to the movement of hip-hop
It won’t stop, I’m tired of people talking about their rocks
And their girls and their cars and their cash that doesn’t last
I’m putting y’all on full blast cause the emcee has returned
Get ready for the return of the emcee
All y’all witnessing history
Get ready for the return of the emcee
Prepare yourself to believe
Now some of you may not appreciate what I’m doin’
I’m educatin’ audiences like they were in school and
I’m showing people that it’s cool to rap like this
And I’ll continue to persist with the realness
For there a lot of fake stuff floating around on the streets
A lot of pink fluff over melodic trap beats
If you want to rock the club, that’s fine
But don’t you ever step to me with those prerecorded lines
I shine like I’m supposed to over any kind of beat
I bring the heat direct that melts you piece by piece
I withstand pressure higher than the Richter scale
I never fail when it comes to what I have to do
Which is bringing hip-hop to it’s core values
If you like what I’m blasting then pump up the volume
And sit back, relax, maybe even dance
I’m in a b-boy stance cause this the return of the emcee
Get ready for the return of the emcee
All y’all witnessing history
Get ready for the return of the emcee
Prepare yourself to believe
This is the part where you do the tango
Relax your feet and just let it flow
Go down to the ground and show your moves
And don’t stop for anything cause this groove is infectious
It’s like a virus the way it spreads through your body
Grab your hottie tight cause it’s about to get fierce
Listen with your ears, you know the words I’m sayin’
Are prophecy, with every line that I’ve been layin’
I’ve been stimulating your brain, making you think
The reverberation of my voice is like audible ink
The way the lines flow and the details connect
They make lasting impressions that linger in your head
This is what emceeing is supposed to be
Being in the front lines recording history
Skill ain’t free, you gotta work hard for it
No more weakness now cause the emcee has returned
Get ready for the return of the emcee
All y’all witnessing history
Get ready for the return of the emcee
Prepare yourself to believe
Get ready for the return of the emcee
All y’all witnessing history
Get ready for the return of the emcee
Prepare yourself to believe

It’s the return of the emcee, I’m bringing it all back
The rhymes, the breaks and the b-boy stance
With a modern twist, I don’t adhere to any list
Get the gist, look at what I’m holding in my fist
It’s called a microphone, and I spit magic
Everytime I get on stage, the crowd goes manic
