This is to listen to, so ask not a question Not to be taken as a simple suggestion But a warning, to whom it may concern If knowledge is the key, then I think it's time you learn For there is not the problem So leaders are acknowledged, I don't follow them I turn into another degree And find the D-O to the C and growing like a tree and Causing much destruction cause I'm crushing Complimented much, yeah, but never blushing Hard like a criminal, and I'm subliminal In my own right I'm dope cause it's original Funky, unmistakibly so When the vocals are done, then you know It's all a matter of setting a date For America's most complete artist, but wait Make sure that you keep the facts in mind Don't mess with The Great, cause the D.O.C. is like a nine With a voice, telling you the bullet's direction I'm talking murder, but that's another section I need to explain by keeping my composure There's no jerking a sucker when he knows your Nothing but a villian, and you'll kill him So he's in fear, but there ain't no need in spilling Your guts to a nut, no, I am not your equal Meaning your equivalent, I'm all like heaven sent I got it together so clever no one could sever Remember this forever

Knowledge is the key, and hard work is the fee For me to be The Great at the start and remain to be A threat, til the opposition is warned As long as a song, cause I was born With instincts to kill, a grave mentality Over the edge and you say you want to battle me?
