Intro/Rhyme Pays - Ice-T[00:00:00]

A child was born in the East one day[00:00:08]

Moved to the West coast after his parents passed away[00:00:11]

Never understood his fascination with rhymes or beats[00:00:15]

In poetry he was considered elite[00:00:19]

Became a young gangster in the streets of L A [00:00:23]

Lost connections with his true roots far away[00:00:27]

But no matter the job or crime[00:00:31]

He never lost his hardcore obsession to rhyme[00:00:34]

New York's hip hop movement broke loose[00:00:39]

DJ's cut records raps had the juice[00:00:42]

Since busting rhymes was his natural thing[00:00:46]

He was crowned the west coast MC king[00:00:51]

But after his inauguration there was a rush[00:00:55]

Of wack rappers with one intention to crush[00:00:59]

This master rapper and take his throne[00:01:03]

A simple job he had no crew he stood all alone[00:01:07]

Assassins came in groups of one through five[00:01:12]

With raps no mortal MC could survive[00:01:15]

But he showed no mercy he rapped blood thirsty[00:01:19]

Battling from Friday on through to Thursday[00:01:24]

Never losin a bout never ending in doubt[00:01:29]

Every confrontation K O knock out[00:01:32]

On his never ending journey to the T O P [00:01:36]

The L A player M C ICE-T[00:01:40]

Magnificent rhymer I'm the ill beat designer[00:01:48]

If they ask you if I'm def don't front and say kinda[00:01:51]

Merciless meticulous so fresh it's ridiculous[00:01:53]

I'm raised in the heart of Los A-N-G-E-L-E-S[00:01:56]

King word connector the vocal projector[00:01:58]

Your girl tried to jock me I had to reject her[00:02:00]

Always adventurous voice some say is sensuous[00:02:03]

Now I'm on the mic so I think I better mention this[00:02:06]

I don't like Gucci Fila Louie or Fendi[00:02:08]

Those are fads and I ain't trendy[00:02:11]

But whether your name's Lucy Terry Laura or Cindy[00:02:13]

Ice got beef and this ain't Wendy's[00:02:16]

Bust a move while I'm talkin'[00:02:18]

Sucker rappers I be stalkin'[00:02:19]

When they see me on the street with my homeboy walkin'[00:02:21]

They slow down turn around and ask was that Ice [00:02:23]

Then they see me cold countin' my cash[00:02:26]

Rhyme pays [00:02:28]

Moves must be busted girls can't be trusted[00:02:38]

I looked at your lady and I was disgusted[00:02:41]

Came into the party just to rock the place[00:02:43]

And your big zombie[00:02:45]

Lookin' freak still won't get out of my face[00:02:46]

I don't mean to diss her but do you kiss her [00:02:48]

Look at her lips she got them crazy blisters[00:02:51]

Body that smells like the New York mets[00:02:53]

Arm pits all nappy packed full of sweat[00:02:55]

I hope this something that you never forget[00:02:58]

Tie that freak outside next time you come in the set[00:03:01]

Because my jams be crazy packed with all fly ladies[00:03:03]

I'm talkin' def girlies and I don't mean maybe[00:03:05]

The way I rhyme no one will ever slay me[00:03:08]

And I ain't lyin' rhyme do pay me[00:03:11]

I'm notorious I'm infamous like a snake I'm venomous[00:03:23]

For those who may diss I think you should consider this[00:03:26]

I can make a rhyme complicated as a puzzle[00:03:28]

Dangerous and as violent as a pit bull in a muzzle[00:03:31]

But this record is for radio S-T-E-R-E-O[00:03:33]

It not to be banned or for some underground mix show[00:03:36]

My hearts in my pen every time I begin[00:03:38]

Sometimes my lyrics go crazy[00:03:40]

And I just can't control em my friend[00:03:41]

I try to edit what I'm rappin' about[00:03:43]

But I can't write polite my anger just jumps out [00:03:45]

Perpetrators in the business claim their hard as hell[00:03:48]

Talkin' that gangster sh*t know'n they're soft as jell-[00:03:50]

Oh I better chill out before I ill out[00:03:53]

And my negative potential just might spill out[00:03:56]

And then this record won't be gettin played[00:03:58]

I'll save that rap for another day[00:04:00]

-Rhyme pays-[00:04:02]

The front stage area goes into hysteria[00:04:13]

As I start to rhyme and unleash my criteria[00:04:16]

Of what is to come during the beat of the drum[00:04:18]

And Evil agitates the records with the use of his thumb[00:04:20]

Using his intricate moves the record stays in the groove[00:04:23]

My boy cuts like Jason it's easy to prove[00:04:25]

That Evil E is the great his cuts are real not fake[00:04:28]

Not emulated effects or a play back tape[00:04:30]

So suckers witness your fate while Evil demonstrates[00:04:33]

I'm bout to get off this mic E dog the break - Kick it [00:04:35]

Like me if ya want'a diss me if you're gonna[00:04:58]

But my jam will still be kickin'[00:05:00]

On your neighborhood corner[00:05:02]

As my bass is max'n out the V U S on your box[00:05:03]

There'll be no doubt within your mind[00:05:05]

Whether this MC do rock[00:05:07]

Like granite I planned it [00:05:08]

So you could understand it[00:05:09]

If someone's talkin' when I'm rhymin'[00:05:10]

Then just say "Damn shut up "[00:05:12]

While Ice is breakin' the boy don't be fakin'[00:05:14]

Maybe they're just jealous of the dollars I'm makin'[00:05:16]

But you're down with me You know god gifted me[00:05:18]

Black kids say I'm trech white kids say I'm nifty[00:05:21]

Spell out my name ya go I-C-E T[00:05:23]

But right now it's time for Evil E to hit me [00:05:26]

Rhyme pays buys my food every night and day[00:05:38]

It pays my rent my bills I guess I'm doin' ok[00:05:41]

But when I say rhyme pays I mean in different ways[00:05:43]

Cause rappin' gets a lot of kids[00:05:45]

Out of the streets each day[00:05:47]

It makes me feel real nice[00:05:48]

When someone likes the Ice[00:05:49]

Or some young MC asks me for advice[00:05:50]

But there will always be rappers who hate Ice T[00:05:53]

Maybe I dogged 'em in a battle or just jealousy[00:05:55]

Inevitable situation sucker rapper frustration[00:05:58]

I rhyme too tough to bite too intricate for notation[00:06:01]

Syllables jumble competitors crumble[00:06:03]

As they witness mic attack[00:06:06]

And the microphone rumbles like hurricane[00:06:07]

I maim sometimes I go insane[00:06:09]

Step toward my rap and I inflict the pain [00:06:11]

No shame Ice capital T's my name [00:06:13]

Damn there I go illin' out again[00:06:16]
