How Ya Like Me Now (Longer Version) - Kool Moe Dee

I throw my tape on

And I watch ya

Three second later

I got ya shaking your head

Dancing instead of sitting

The rhymes kick

The beats hitting you

Just like a home run

Slamming like a slam dunk

Riding the wave that James Brown gave funk

It happened to James like it happened to me

How you think I feel to see another MC

Getting paid using my rap style

And I'm playng the background meanwhile

I ain't with that

You can forget that

You took my style

I'm taking it back

I'm come back like Return of the Jedi

Sucker MC's in the place that said I

Could only rock rhymes

Only rock crowds

But never rock records

How ya like me now

How ya like me now

Now brothers are riding me

Like a pony

I'm no phony

I'm the only real micaroni

Playing the mic like supposed it's to be played

New jacks you all shoulda stayed out of the business

What is this amateur night at the Apollo

Get off this stage I'm in a rage

I'm like a lion that's been trapped in a cage

I'm the real king rap is a jungle

I never understood how could one go

To a party watch me stand around and jock me

Become a rapper then try to rock me

Scheming like a demon you're screaming and dreaming

I'm from the old school I used to see men

Dies for less but I'm not that living way

I'll let my mic do the talkin'

And let the music play

How ya like me now

Rap is an art

And I'm a Picasso

But of course

Why else would you try so

Hard to paint a picture and try to get ya

Self in my shoes but they won't fit ya

I'm bigger and better forget about deffer

Every time I rocked the mic I left a

Stain in your brain that will remain

Stuck in the back of your brain till you see me

Again respect I come correct

The rhymes I select are nothing short of

Vernacular's pure and I can insure

Life od death with my breath my voice is a cure

I heal life from the words I spread

I'll make a sick man rock on his death bed

Sucker MC's I'll make your girl say ow

She's jocking

How ya like me now

How ya like me now

It irked my nerve

When I heard

A sucker rapper that I know I'll serve

Run around town saying he is the best

Is that a test

I'm not impressed

Get real you're nothing but a toy

Don't ya know I'll serve that boy

Just like a waiter

Hit'em with a place of

These fresh rhymes and

Make sure that he

Pays the bill and leave him standing still

When he's had enough hit him with a refil

And for dessert it won't be no ice cream

I'm just gonna splatter and shatter his pipe dream

Make him feel the wrath beat him and laugh

Then when I finish them I'm gonna ask him

Who's the bests and if he don't say Moe Dee

I'll take my whip and make him call himself Toby

Whip him good then I'll make him sweat

Talking about battles and never had a battle yet

But if we ever did

How could you beat me

You're so petrified

Even scared to meet me

My word's the law

That's why you don't beef

You're nothing but a punk track star and a thief

So I'm putting you on punishment

Just like a child

Never touch another mic

How ya like me now

How ya like me now

I could continue

There's more on the menu

But relax cos I'm so far in you

You had enough

I know you're overstuffed

If I keep going

You'll be throwing up

Old rhymes I used to say

Back in the day

When you used to me

To my parties and pay

Nobody's ever gonna rack me

This I vow

So all I wanna say is

How ya like me now

How ya like me now
