Make The City Stand Still - Maestro Fresh Wes

featuring Wade O. Brown 

[Maestro] 
This joint's dedicated to all emcees 
Yo  stay focused with this 
A'ight 
Stay strong  stay dedicated 
Maestro 
Check it out  yo 

Yeah yeah  yo 
I'm still smashin' it 
So compassionate 
House of Commons want me on the cabinet 
The graduate who got the phattest shit 
I splatter shit 
Niggas better scatter when I'm splashin' it 
Flashin' it 
Pass the record books and watch me shatter shit 
I made the city hot 
Rhymes makin' niggas drop 
Even free-stylin' when CKLN was fifty watts 
Then I built the strategy 
Gradualy, I planned to be 
The greatest from the city 
Brothers started stabbin' me 
Made your backbone slide to this, glide to this 
Brothers jealous 'cause their sons couldn't shine like this 
It ain't my fault that my song's phat 
It ain't my fault that my pops loved my mom, black 
I made the bomb track 
Kids were jackin' for beats when my rap hit the streets 
I went to church and even signed my autograph for the priest 
When my track was released, you noticed me 
Toronto prodigy of poetry 
Even white chicks were faintin' over me 
The flyer boss, toured like Diana Ross 
It kills me when I see you young brothers tryin' to floss 
You got a long way to go to keep the hip in the hop 
I left in ninety two, it's like the fukin' industry stopped 
But it's on, don't panic 
Emcees stay frantic 
It's automatic, we makin' audio dramatic 
Lyrically I'm a bill, at the top of a hill 
Show my sons how to chill, and make the city stand still 

[Chorus: Wade O. Br
