I Know (Album Version|Explicit) - Rakim

Written by：William Griffin/D. Hinds/Benny Latimore/T. Randolph

Aye yo who's the most explosive one yet

The a roundest one left

Who flows express to them

Rhythm drum set ain't done yet

Flow like a trumpet to your eardrum are deaf

Who pose a threat

Yo who's more ferocious none yet

To the night damn set mic trends and life ends

In sight

I see the whole world through a tight lens

Rhymes I write wins and kept a white benz

Spend G's like hundreds and hundreds like tens

I get paid

Black but laid back with mild manners

When I flip it's the opposite of dark bruce banner

Out the lab with soul and melodies in your ear

And just when it all seem clear I disappear

All you gotta do is holler

Reappear like vol la the street scholar

I'm 40 deep like ali baba

Give the mamas somethin'

To talk about in the beauty parlor

Keep it hot like lava yeah

It's rakim allah

I know you find it hard to believe that

I am the genie of the mic an

I can do anything you wish but

Right now I'm commandin' you to dance

Ready to dance y'all

My magic carpet's the dance floor

Last chance y'all even if you can't ball

What part don't you understand

Your wish is my command

And I'm a rock a jam by popular demand

You gone love this it's marvelous baby

It gotta thug's twist

It start to get crazy

It's off the meat rack

I can't keep my peeps back

I speak raps and I freak tracks for these cats

I got a fetish for puttin' together words and letters

It ain't all about the cheddars

And y'all know where my head is

Ghetto scriptures for my little brothers and sisters

And still get vicious for the thugs and the misses

What I don't do is talk about the same old thing

When I come through

I drop it and they gone swing

I bring the ladies joy until' they make crazy noise

'Cuz the beat's bangin'

I'm born to blaze baby boy

I know

You find it hard to believe that

I am the genie of the mic an

I can do anything you wish but

Right now I'm commanding you to dance

I know

You find it hard to believe that

I am the genie of the mic an

I can do anything you wish but

Right now I'm commanding you to dance

The editor forever more the predator

I said it all

I spread a warlike never before

Spit lead at yours like a ghetto braud raw at a

She'll never pause with raw metaphors

I set it off

But I just begun the best is yet to come

Blessed with a majestic tongue since

I was young

But I was stressed for funds

And obsessed with guns

Test the one

Let allah protect your son

'Cause somethin' musical magician

The ageiathic author

The microphone magician

When I have a magic marker a mentor

You can explore every sentence is a tour

The inventor is more than adventure

You'll be blown away and a zone to play

It's so I'll

I still grab the microphone and say

One of my own displays like

I'm known to blaze

And I bet rhyme pays until I'm old and gray

I know you find it hard to believe that

I am the genie of the mic an

I can do anything you wish but

Right now I'm commanding you to dance

I know you find it hard to believe that

I am the genie of the mic an

I can do anything you wish but

Right now I'm commanding you to dance

I know you find it hard to believe that

I am the genie of the mic an

I can do anything you wish but

Right now I'm commanding you to dance

I know you find it hard to believe that

I am the genie of the mic an

I can do anything you wish but

Right now I'm commanding you to dance
