How Ya Like Me Now - Kool Moe Dee

I throw my tape on 
And I watch ya 
Three second later 
I got ya shakin' your head 
Dancin' instead of sittin' 
The rhymes kick 
The beats hittin' you 
Just like a home run 
Slammin' like a slam dunk 
Riding the wave that James Brown gave funk 
It happened to James like it happened to me 
How you think I feel to see another MC 
Gettin' paid   usin' my rap style 
And I'm playn' the background meanwhile 
I ain't with that 
You can forget that 
You took my style 
I'm takin' it back 
I'm come back like "Return of the Jedi" 
Sucker MC's in the place that said I 
Could only rock rhymes 
Only rock crowds 
But never rock records 

How ya like me now (x2) 

Now brothers are riding me 
Like a pony 
I'm no phony 
I'm the only real micaroni 
Playin' the mic like it's supposed to be played 
New jacks,you all shoulda stayed out of the business 
What is this,amateur night at the Apollo? 
Get off this stage,I'm in a rage 
I'm like a lion that's been trapped in a cage 
I'm the real king , rap is a jungle 
I never understood,how could one go 
To a party,watch me,stand around and jock me 
Become a rapper,then try to rock me 
Scheming like a demon,you're screamin' and dreamin' 
I'm from the old school,I used to see men 
Dies for less,but I'm not living that way 
I'll let my mic do the talkin' 
And let the music play 

How ya like me now (x2) 

Rap is an art 
And I'm a Picasso 
But of course 
Why else would you try so 
Hard to
