lyrics
“I declare this young emcee looks hungry.
Arthur, fix him a taco with scrambled egg and vegetarian sausage”
Young boy, young emcee
Young boy, young emcee
Is hungry, a young emcee is hungry
Used to play games on the street
Make a name on the street, fi fi fi
Take pain in defeat
Turn the other cheek and fly fly fly
It’s not your time
But time is on your side
Make change to the beat
It’s time to move your feet
Learning to spit
You’ve got to find the rhyme rhyme rhyme
Take hold of it
The sound of the street like grime grime grime
You have no choice
You got to find your voice
Controlling It
Is the key to owning it
Young boy, were you born with a break
Or young boy did you find one later
Young boy when the feeling’s right
Young boy take aim on the mic
Young boy do you remember me?
Young boy I was a young emcee
Young boy like you are now
A young emcee on the merry go round
Arthur, fix him a taco with scrambled egg and vegetarian sausage”
Young boy, young emcee
Young boy, young emcee
Is hungry, a young emcee is hungry
Used to play games on the street
Make a name on the street, fi fi fi
Take pain in defeat
Turn the other cheek and fly fly fly
It’s not your time
But time is on your side
Make change to the beat
It’s time to move your feet
Learning to spit
You’ve got to find the rhyme rhyme rhyme
Take hold of it
The sound of the street like grime grime grime
You have no choice
You got to find your voice
Controlling It
Is the key to owning it
Young boy, were you born with a break
Or young boy did you find one later
Young boy when the feeling’s right
Young boy take aim on the mic
Young boy do you remember me?
Young boy I was a young emcee
Young boy like you are now
A young emcee on the merry go round
