Raising Hell

Lyrics

Kings from Queens from Queens come Kings
 We're raisin hell like a class
 when the lunchbell rings
 The king will be praised,
 and hell will be raised
 S-s-s-suckers try to faze him
 but D won't be fazed
 So what's your name?
 D.M.C.!
 The King is me!
 Your High-ness,
 or His Majesty!
 Now you can debate,
 c-c-c-concentrate
 But you can't imitate
 D.M.C. the Great!
 Dissin all devils,
 causin havoc in hell
 At a very high level
 base and treble shall yell
 Heard in the heavens
 are the sounds supreme
 So clear to the ear
 it is sometimes seen
 So loud like a cloud
 with thunder and lightning
 So proud to the crowd
 it is somewhat frightening
 No calm in the storm
 like a beast unleashed
 There's no stoppin
 cause the rockin cannot cease;
 Break!
 You see it's harder than hard,
 not one bit soft
 Courageous and contagious
 so you better break North
 Not a cold, on a roll,
 did you hear me cough?
 Just listen while I'm dissin
 cause you're pissin me off
 Cold bedding is spreading
 all across your face
 You can't take when I break
 and if that's the case
 I'll go on, and on,
 and kick the bass
 So back up off the cup
 while I take my taste
 It's highly appraised
 when the hell is raised
 So demanding and commanding
 that you all stand dazed
 The unbelieving receiving
 prophecy so true
 I cut the head off the Devil
 and I throw it at you
 My mighty mic control,
 already brought his soul
 The rock king is so bold
 when he rocks and roll
 A black hat is my crown,
 symbolizin the sound
 Signifyin, we won't play around
 Bust it!
 Rappin and climbin
 beat-makin every day
 No synthesizer sound,
 so silence when I say
 I am great, get it straight,
 cause that's my fate
 My name is Run I'm number one,
 that's how I rate
 He's in the place with the bass,
 and style and grace
 His name is J he's here to play,
 and win this race
 He's off the wall, on the ball,
 his name is D
 Kind of tall yes y'all,
 he's down with me
 From the mountain valley to the deep blue sea
 The word is heard as told by D
 I don't sing I bring, much delight
 Like a star shinin bright in the darkest night
 If you are cold, I'll bring you heat
 Like I brought the whole world my funky beat
 Mysterious and serious I ain't no joke
 Fire from the depths of hell
 And you can smell the smoke!
 Kickin and tickin while you're havin a ball
 Like chicken finger lickin I'll be vickin you all
 So do the bird, have you heard,
 did they give you a call
 Just me and D.M.C., cold shakin the walls
 There's no fearin when hearin sound of this kind
 Across the land every man is goin out of his mind
 On the face of the earth spreadin like disease
 Contaminating infiltrating like a horde of bees
 Lord of lyrics, duke of discussion
 Ruler of rock, your king at cold-crushin
 Puller of people - controller of crowds
 Lingering lyrics all lasting and loud
 Left y'all, ah to the left y'all
 because I rock upon the mike real def y'all
 And to the right y'all, ah to the right y'all
 because I rock upon the mike all night y'all
 You see, I.
 . want respect, if I'm correct
 They're all like a ball that I have checked
 And the shots they take have no effect
 The pope try to dope but he broke his neck
 Cause I rock harder, and I get farther
 You wanna battle D hey please don't bother
 To waste your time, messin with my rhyme
 The only kick you get out of is in the behind!
