I came in the door, I said it before I never let the mic magnetize me no more But it's bitin' me, fightin' me, invitin' me to rhyme I can't hold it back, I'm looking for the line

Taking off my coat, clearing my throat The rhyme will be kickin' it 'til I hit my last note My mind remains to find all kinds of ideas Self-esteem makes it seem like a thought took years to build

But still say a rhyme after the next one Prepared, never scared, I'll just bless one And you know that I'm the soloist So Eric B., make 'em clap to this

Make em clap to this (8x)

I don't bug out or chill or be acting ill No tricks in '86, it's time to build Eric B. easy on the cut, no mistakes allowed Cuz to me, MC means move the crowd

I made it easy to dance to this But can you die-tect what's coming next from the flex of the wrist Saying indeed than I precede cuz my man made a mix If he bleed he won't need no band-aid to fix, his finger tips

So i rhyme until there's no rhymes left I hurry up because the cut will make 'em bleed to death But he's kickin' it cause it ain't no half steppin' The party is live, the rhyme can't be kept in-

Side, it needs eruptin' just like a volcano It ain't the everyday style of the same old rhyme Cause I'm better then the rest of them Eric B. is on the cut and my name is Rakim

Nasty Make em clap to this Special mix

Go get a girl and get soft and warm Don't get excited, you've been invited to a quiet storm But now it's out of hand cuz you told me you hate me And then you ask what have I done lately

First you said all you want is love and affection Let me be your angel and I'll be your protection Take you out, buy you all kinds of things

Make em clap to this (1x)

Caught an attitude, you need food to eat up I'm schemin' like I'm dreamin' on a couch with my feet up You scream I'm lazy, you must be crazy Thought I was a donut, you tried to glaze me

Make em clap to this (4x)

Make em clap to this(4x)

I made it easy to danxe to this But you can die-dect what's coming next from the flex of the wrist Saying indeed than I precede cuz my man made a mix If he bleed he won't need no band-aid to fix his finger tips

Clearly, you are familiar with the oldest living rapper. If you like him, I'd like to recommend Mark Morrison's Trippin'. I really like the where his music takes me - if not his lyrics.

Eric B is not the oldest human rapper. He was late 80's East coast. Did a lot of cool dance rap back then. Ahhh the good old days of being a club DJ.
