What Is An Mc? Lyrics - El Cool Magnifico - Coolio

[Verse 1] 

Yo, the G is off the chain when you come round here 

Better watch what you claim when you come round here 

You can do your thing when you come round here 

But it's blessed that you can hang when you come round here 

Ain't no playin games when you come round here 

Weak niggas feel the flame when they come round here 

We tryina make it bang when you come round here 

Everything ain't the same when you come round here 

DJ's pump the bass up 

And pull the lights back 

It's time to get it crackin and we love it when it's like that 

Ain't no reason for no treason 

So put the hater-ray down in this new millenium season 

Who you gon' believe in while you're cheesin? 

Ain't no logic or no reason in your teachings 

I'm steady on the grind round while you're reachin 

So just sit and look and listen, hear my twenty screechin 

[Hook] 

What is an MC if he can't rap? 

How you gonna throw up from the shoulder and can't scrap? 

Twenty-five with a L, ain't no gettin back 

Where niggaz do it all, homie just like that 

What is a DJ if he can't scratch? 

How you gon' keep on trickin and stay fat? 

Jump your ass in a gunfight without no strap 

Where niggaz do it all, homie just like that 

[Verse 2] 

You can be yourself when you come round here 

Ain't no titles or no belts when you come round here 

Keep your game on stealth when you come round here 

But be about your wealth when you come round here 

You get cut and left when you come round here 

So don't let 'em see you sweat when you come round here 

We'll be makin busters melt when they come round here 

So you'd better check yourself when you come round here 

We be gettin gangsta with it all through the weekend 

Get your lazy ass up, no time for sleepin 

Call your homegirls up, jump in your jeep and 

They ain't ready when you come, then you're leavin 

You're goin to the club, it's time for freakin 

You ain't got no ID to try to sneak in 

It's on and crackin once again you cheat the G-game 

Just open up your mind, no time for tweakin 

[Hook] 

[Verse 3] 

Fat meat is greasy when you come round here 

So don't be acting cheesy when you come round here 

You might go off the heasy when you come round here 

And we'll still be bumpin Eazy when you come round here 

You better watch the greedy when you come round here 

Cos some of these fools are sleazy when you come round here 

Give to the needy when you come round here 

But understand you can't defeat me when you come round here 

Most stack a grip, trip and roll with some new friends 

Some'll sell their soul to the devil just to chip in 

Some'll lie, steal and rob their mama just to get ends 

Which one is you nigga? 

Where do you fit in? 

But this thing don't stop just cos you's a trick 

And hatin cos you ain't rich, you's a bitch 

we gon' dip like the old school, c'est la vie 

Hop your tread like me 

Watch what you say and get paid like C 

[Hook]
