Testo Marley Marl Scratch - MC Shan
Testo della canzone Marley Marl Scratch (MC Shan), tratta dall'album Down By Law
The world famous Mr. Magic Rap Attack presents
A world premiere, a world premiere, a world premiere
All of his beats and rhymes attached
Form the new creation called the Marley Scratch
We always steer at a positive course
His beats, my rhymes, combined make force
I say it's like a force 'cause the force is strong
And if you think we're weak then I'd say you're wrong
All you other DJ's are a bunch of jerks
Marley, give 'em an example how a DJ works
"Marley, Marley, Marley"
Since you just heard how a DJ sounds
The name Marley Marl, I will break it down
The M is for master of scratch
And if the needle were to slip, it's the needle he'll catch
The A is the letter that you set apart
I wouldn't call his beats music, I would call it art
The R just stands for the way he rocks
Which is 24/7, around the clock
The L is for lyrics that I write
When put to his music, sound out of sight
The E is for every beat he makes
Which other DJs persist to take
Don't play with the Y 'cause it isn't a game
You ask why did he put the other DJs to shame
After this there shouldn't be a story to tell
At the end of that is M-A-R-L
This paragraph here has come to an end
Marley, can we hear your funky fresh scratching again?
"Marley, Marley, Marley"
I never got caught in the game of tag
My name is MC Shan, no need to brag
MC's brag about theirself all through their rhyme
You can see I got quality, won't waste my time
If I did not mean it, I wouldn't have said it
I'm gonna give the man behind the wheels some credit
I'm not trying to say that he can't be beat
But Marley Marl can stand on his own two feet
Since a DJ like him is so in demand
Marley, won't you get on and show 'em where you stand?
"Marley, Marley, Marley"
He can go on but I won't insist
How many fortunate MC's have a DJ like this?
Every time I grab the mic, I always have a plan
He's DJ Marley Marl and I am MC Shan
Combined with Fresh, this you must admit
Don't wanna ever hear you say we ain't worth jack
To be a DJ or an MC, well it isn't no thing
And if you ever wanna learn then just give us a ring
Like I just said, it wasn't no thing
You either have to be an ace, a jack, a queen or a king
When you're one of these, that means you're the best
And the people of today won't settle for less
We could be a jack, a king, we could play the place
But we'd rather be a DJ and an MC, ace
"Marley, Marley, Marley"
If you ever wanna battle, be at your best
Because a man like Marley just does not fess
In that battle you must give your all
But just be prepared to take your fall
'Cause a lot of DJ's already tried
There ain't been one yet disqualified
To think you can beat him, you must be nuts
Just listen real close to his scratch and cuts
"Marley, Marley, Marley"
