[CHORUS] x 4

Do you wanna be an MC

Ask yourself, ask yourself, ask yourself



[Verse 1]

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



[CHORUS] x 4

Do you wanna be an MC
