Gang Starr Follow

Step up, step up
Step up, step up
Step up, step up
Step up

Once you step in the arena, cheater, you're gonna be
Amazed when you gaze at the armor on this leader
Fully clad and glad to find a cause, I won't pause
Fear is a joke, slowpoke, I'm like claws
That'll rip 'cause your gift, is merely flesh
Superficial and I wish you, would give it a rest
But if you don't, I'll unsheathe my Excalibur
Like a noble knight, so meet ya challenger

A true hero, while you're a through zero
Gettin' beat to a pulp so that you can't run for help
I heard a gulp in your throat, 'cause you hope that I'll be merciful
But coo-cluck, I made you strut as I rehearse a few
Battle drills, and watch your bladder spill, yellow fluid, check out
How I mellowed into it, face to feet to defeat, you can tell I'm into it
As I'm pullin' out my lance, to kill you and advance to
The winners throne, 'cause I own you once you step in the arena

Step up
Step up
Step up
Step, step, step, step, step up

In the arena, or rather coliseum
There's people gatherin' by multitudes to see one
Perpetrator fall to the dust after the other
Quickly disposed of at the hand of a known brother
Born wit the art in his heart that is Spartacus
And one-to-one combat jack, just a thought of this
Match-up, makes Gang Starr wanna snatch up
One or two phrases from the new book with new pages

Of rhymes that are built like a chariot, dope vocals carry it
To the battle set, if a beat was a princess, I would marry it

Victorious, glorious, understand now
'Cause battles and wars and much fights I have been through
One mac got beheaded, and you can too forget it
'Cause you'd rather be just a spectator, an onlooker
Afraid you may get slayed or, struck by a blow, from a mic gladiator

I betcha that later you might be sad that you played yourself
'Cause you stepped up, chest puffed out
And in just one lyric, you got snuffed out
'Cause rhymin' is serious, I'm strong, I'm like Hercules
You'll get hurt with these lines, close the curtains please
And suckers can jet 'cause I wreck once you step in the arena

Step inside my, step inside my
Step inside my, step inside my arena
Step inside my, step inside my
Step inside my arena

In the arena or forum, weak mc's I will floor 'em
Causin' mayhem, I'll slay them, and the blood'll be pourin'
Furthermore I implore, that as a soldier of war
I go in only to win and be the holder of more
Trophies, titles, and triumphs 'cause I dump all the sly chumps
Never choosin' to lose my spot, not once
For the mere idea of an opponent that I fear
Is foolish utterly, I mean but none'll be

Tryin' to toy wit a destroyer of many, you shitted your pants
'Cause you can't figure any, foe that can step to this concept so
Tou better sit again citizen, weak mc's I get rid of them
Watch the way they get distraught when they get caught
In the worst positions, 'cause they didn't listen
And tried goin' up against a hungry killer who's itchin'
To mame and murder, those who claimed that they were the
Toughest ones, they get done once they step in the arena

Step inside my arena

Step up, step up
Step up, step up
Step up, step up
