Step In The Arena Lyrics - Gangstarr

{dj premier cuts the phrase "step up..." over and over} 

(guru) 

Once you step in the arena, cheater; you're gonna be a- 

Mazed 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 unsheath 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 winner's throne; cause I own you once you step in the arena

(guru) 

In the arena... or rather colliseum 

There's people gatherin by multitudes to see one 

Perpretrator 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 gangstarr 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 

But now I must bow to the crowd as I stand proud 

Victorius, glorious, understand now 

Cause battles and wars and much fights I have been through 

One mc 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 

{dj premier cuts the phrase "step inside my... arena" over and over} 

(guru) 

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
