Its Hard Being the Kane Lyrics by Big Daddy Kane

Its Hard Being the Kane Lyrics

    Uhh! Put your weight on it
    Uhh, and uh, Prince Paul, bring me on and uh
    Aiyyo Botch, bring me on and uh
    Mad Money Murph just bring me on and uh
    Just bring me on, yo

    This is a world premier and I'm here
    A presentation beyond compare
    So MC's step to the rear as I break through
    Girls say ooh and then skip to my loo
    That means dance as I get smooth with
    Poetic perfection that you can groove with
    Just like a passenger, hurry and fasten your seatbelt
    cause I'm about to start broadcastin
    the words of wisdom, so turn up the system
    loud and clear, I don't want no one to miss one
    word to be heard never blurred or slurred
    The preferred is absurd, all the damage that's occured
    As I break MC's like a lumberjack
    Ain't no comin back, you can't get none of that
    I'm not the type of MC to be merciful
    So if your name ain't Jermaine take it personal
    Cause like a vigilante I'm gonna kill off any
    sucker MC that tries to withstand me
    With the mic in my hand I start flowin then
    all competition flee and start goin in
    the other direction, run for protection
    Cause I can burn an MC like an erection
    You're too small kid, don't get involved with
    the verbal law for the Nation of Islam
    Wisdom I speak makes your head nod
    Showin I got the power, and that's from bein born the God
    But many doubt my Knowledge of Self
    But they're just illiterate, so I don't consider it
    Feedin off poison that's pollutin their mind
    and that's the reason I don't swine
    I gotta maintain, accelerate my brain
    and god damn, it's hard being the Kane

    Give it to me! C'mon!
    C'mon! Uhh!
    Give it to me! Give it here!
    Give it to me! Yeah..

    This is the proper way man should use ink
    But you're at your brink and your rhymes are extinct
    Just like a dinosaur, but you never find a more
    cause mine'll keep sellin on wax like some kind of whore
    Let me inject this, flow of electric currency
    for all the party people preferrin me
    and spectatin like a tourist, cause you never
    saw this style of rap kickin like Chuck Norris
    But this ain't Kung-Fu, no I just brung you
    a style, that phony MC's were too young to
    digest, when I manifest, you adolescent
    So sit back, relax, be glad you had a lesson
    And this one's for your listenin pleasure
    Somethin for all the bitin MC's to treasure
    Just like a diary, for you to admire me
    before you're put in the Dead Poet's Society
    Cool as a draft, droppin math in a paragraph
    I laugh as the wrath break in half, your whole staff
    But many MC's were able to retreat
    Runnin like an athlete, but I got bad feet
    So I don't chase ya, nor do I wait to face ya
    Nah it ain't in my nature
    I just rip shop, flip-top, and watch MC's get dropped
    as I manifest in hip-hop
    Rhymes I construct are tough like a Tonka truck
    And just like lightnin they struck
    down on all the toy MC's that annoy
    That's how I build and destroy
    The poetic printer, rough rhyme inventor
    with a groove so smooth you can't help but get into
    So I'm advisin competition to flee
    cause I can bake an MC like Chef Boyardee
    Holdin my own on the microphone
    Cause I break bones just like sticks and stones
    So let it rain let it rain as I put em in pain
    God damn, it's hard bein the Kane!

    Give it to me! Get up!
    Come on! Uhh!
    Give it to me! Come on!
    Give it to me! Yeahhh

    Put in a pause, because here's the holocaust
    Above all laws, in effect and all yours
    Cause I came to blaze a taste of bass of grace
    A replace, erase the waste without a trace
    My vocabulary will just have you very
    dazed and amazed so I fear no adversary --
    that means competition
    They can't even touch this, even with ammunition
    Break out the gauge and go into an outrage
    and I'ma still blow up the stage
    Cause this is a death threat, but don't let your sweat get
    in the way of your vision don't be missin when I get set
    to go on a rampage, start a one man rage
    Total destruction as I rip up the damn stage
    And leave it in ruins from the damage that I'm doin
    to prepare the atmosphere, as I put you in
    the mood for the Smooth Operator to start this flow
    And so..
    I crushed and crushed and stomped the comp that tried
    to get fly and face the ace I put em in place
    Proceed em, retreat em, defeat em, delete em, and feed em, and eat em
    and all the rest of that good stuff, cause I don't need em
    Only one survivor can remain
    And god damn, it's got to be the Kane!

    Get up! Give it to me!
    Give it here! C'mon!
    C'mon! Give it to me!
    Uhh! Put your weight on it
