    I excel, they fell, i said - well, hell
    L can yell or make em melt like gel
    I signed the contracts that buils up stacks
    Play the wall or fall i stand tall you're small in fact
    Step aside, you might get fried
    By the super technique that the rapper applied
    As a matter of fact, the impact will distract
    Your attention away, from the rest who say
    They can mess with cool j the best of to-day
    And best cause the rhymes are so funky fresh
    I'ma attack smack and make em stand back
    Black strong as cognac i got the knack
    To rhyme to the rhythm of this, and give em a gift
    That's swift, other rappers are stiff and don't riff with
    Mr. smith, cause that ain't safe
    I get you wide open like an uncut eighth
    I write to fight, don't bite, to reach heights
    The mic makes right, give me the spotlight
    So i can prove the pen is mightier than the sword
    Ll hard as hell, the lyrical lord
    The counterfeit misfits that rap had to admit that
    My rhymes are so dangerous, i need a permit to rap
    Solo, on the microphone
    Mc's -- don't let me catch you alone
    I'm nitro!

    Yo, i got the kick of a kettle drum, guaranteed to overcome
    You're just a minimum, messin with the maximum
    And when i swung my tongue among the high strung
    Young mc's, they all got done by the legend
    Every second i'm wreckin
    Not a mistake you'll find, but you can keep checkin
    Out the sound you'll find that it's genuine
    Bet that you'll rewind this a thousand times
    You can taste the bass like it's filet-of-sole
    I leave the microphone full of bullet holes
    I drop the bomb like i'm in 'nam and go beyond
    The normal boundaries of too much harm
    To mc's, but as they say please i freeze
    Rhymes like these kill like a disease
    Tried to fill my shoes, and caught the blues
    Because they get bruised by the rhymes i choose
    I kill rappers at random, i don't understand em
    The ones i didn't get, are on a memorandum
    Lines i recite are spontaneous
    The nursery rhymes you write, are miscellaneous
    So pass the crown, bow down and give in
    I'm the prince of rap, that's how we livin
    Settin milestones on the microphone
    Empires are overthrown, and i ain't even baritone
    No joke i spoke then god stroke
    As job tried to sweat the style and got soaked
    Conquered and killed on the microphone
    Mc's -- don't let me catch you alone
    Ll's nitro!
    Nitro!

    Yo, flammable -- like gasoline
    Threatening -- like a guillotine
    It's like a bad dream when you battle my team
    I go to every extreme to make mc's scream
    I'm clever, i last forever, we can do whatever
    With whoever, whenever, i never
    Ever got rocked, stopped or dropped
    They got popped, by the hip-hop rock that i concoct
    I'm so nice yo, flowin with the maestro
    Murderin and hurtin mc's because i'm nitro
    The earthquakes'll kill snakes and fakes
    You can't flake, you made a mistake, give me a break, thanks
    Now that we're straight and that's clear
    Watch all the big mouths - dissapear
    Disintergrate, deteriorate, fall
    I demonstrate, and devestate you all
    There's no doubt about the fact i turn it out, the wack
    Be on the lookout, ll made a comeback
    Full of power, i'ma devour
    I stand tall as a tower, i won't allow a
    Mc to c-o-m-e, c-l-o-s-e
    Play me long d-i-s-t-a-n-c-e, m-c's
    On the microphone, i'm nitro!
    Nitro!
    Yo (funky)

    I daze amaze faze blaze and beat em down
    Nowadays they crave and praise, the funky sound i pound
    Rhymes i write em in, recite em and then slide em in
    Order to slaughter comp that start soon as i begin
    Total domination, across the nation
    Devestation, cut sensation, it's the invasion
    Of l the terrible, devestating rhymin wiz
    I cut through through do and chew, you know what time it is
    Slick, i get off of kicks, vick your flick
    Hard as bricks, rock ya sick over the mix
    The l, l, c, o, o -- l j period now you know bro!
    N-i-t-r-o yo go for what you know
    Unless you're dumb cause yo i'm nitro-glycerin
    Listenin and takin notes
    Icin enticin and slicin throats
