Testo Keep 'Em Eager To Listen - Eric B. & Rakim
Testo della canzone Keep 'Em Eager To Listen (Eric B. & Rakim), tratta dall'album Let The Rhythm Hit 'Em
Me and the rap's laid back
Nonchalant and relaxed in the track
Put together well, so it ain't hard to tell
Easy to recognize, so my records'll sell
On the microphone, well known, wit' a low tone
Show and prove when the stage show is shown
All you hear is screams, when I'm hit by the laser beams
Ladies fiend, rappers are choosin' up teams
To hook the beat up, just before we meet up
Before I kick a rhyme, I kick my feet up
To let you know, everything's under control
Under surveillance, takin' over your soul
So let me handle this, gettin' scandalous
All my jams are hits, never plan to miss
Crowd is captured, released at my permission
Peep 'em, as I, keep em eager to listen
Opponents are found paralyzed from the mic down
Left with a little sight, ears still hear the sound
Try to clear your mind but it's still there
Give him about a year, then give him a wheelchair
I damage and deteriorate, 'til you're brain dead
No huss cuss what I discuss'll bust his head
Here's some hearin' aids when your eardrums fail
You get scars, so you could read it in braille
Close your third eye, then I do body work
And I keep the same procedure 'til somebody's hurt
My DJ'll sew up cuts like an MD
And I still move crowds like a emcee
Entertain and tear you out of your frame
Leave you in a puddle of blood, then let it rain
Then I get deep, so try to withstand
On my level to think, or sink, like quicksand
He couldn't hang, so I cut the rope short
Watchin' 'em fall, cause they need more support
This is the way that I done, all of my competition
Peep 'em, as I, keep 'em eager to listen
Keep 'em eager to listen
The performance I give 'em is, somethin' like a hypnotism
Swingin' back and forth, 'til you can keep the rhythm
At the tone of my voice, you will become
Eager to listen, dance in a trance 'til you see the
R on stage, no cheers, all ears
All three of your eyes on me, so it appears
Just like you thought it would be, but even better
Live and direct on stage, instead of the
Radio, or video, or studio rehearsin'
I'm at my best, in the flesh, in person
The main attraction, center of attention
The crowd'll go crazy, soon as I mention
It's time to communicate, so let's conversate
I get my point across, when you respond I make
Sense, so now we could continue the mission
As I, keep 'em eager to listen
As I, keep 'em eager to listen
I used to always say one day
I'll play in the NBA cause I'll slay
Opponents well, and also excel
As a black quarterback in the NFL
My goal's to score so I can hear the crowd roar
Keep 'em, out of they seats and on the floor
And when I win, it'll pump my adrenaline
My record is undefeated, and I'll win again
I'll never lose or hear boos from the audience
Cause they participate, and applaud me since
I bring 'em what they want to hear
And they'll fill up the atmopshere
Wit' people that came to party, and have a good time
So when I'm gone, I'm sure, you understood the rhyme
Because I promise to accomplish the mission
Cause I keep 'em eager to listen
