Follow The Leader - Eric B. & Rakim

Verse One: 

Follow me into a solo 
Get in the flow   and you can picture like a photo 
Music mixed mellow maintains to make 
Melodies for MC's motivates the breaks 
I'm everlastin  I can go on for days and days 
With rhyme displays that engrave deep as X rays 
I can take a phrase that's rarely heard  FLIP IT 
Now it's a daily word 
I can get iller than 'Nam  a killin bomb 
But no alarm   Rakim will remain calm 
Self-esteem make me super superb and supreme 
But for a microphone still I fiend 
This was a tape I wasn't supposed to break 
I was supposed to wait, but let's motivate 
I want to see who can keep followin and swallowin 
Takin the making, bitin it and borrowin 
Brothers tried and others died to get the formula 
But I'ma let ya sweat - you still ain't warm 
You a step away from frozen, stiff as if ya posin 
Dig into my brain as the rhyme gets chosen 
So follow me and were ya thinkin' you were first? 
Let's travel at magnificent speeds around the Universe 
What could ya say as the Earth gets further and further away 
Planets are small as balls of clay 
Astray into the Milky Way - world's outasight 
Far as the eye can see - not even a satellite 
Now stop and turn around and look 
As ya stare in the darkness, ya knowledge is took! 
So keep starin soon ya suddenly see a star 
You better follow it cause it's the R 
This is a lesson if ya guessin and if ya borrowin 
Hurry hurry step right up and keep followin 
The Leader 

Verse Two: 

This is a lifetime mission, vision of prison 
Aight listen 
In this journey you're the journal I'm the journalist 
Am I Eternal? Or an eternalist? 
I'
