2 Steps Ahead

[Verse 1]

Chumps tryin me

But when they eyein me, I build in skills

And to enhance my chances, I'm thrilled

To be involved with solvin all the problems

With the way that the sound has gone down

So I frown at the scene where you be takin it

And like the winds of change, I'll be breakin it up

Shakin it up, clearing it out, airing it out

And bearing the clout on my chest

Like a crest that rests on a tidal wave

Only the good I'll save when I plunge

And engulf the ones who aren't sons

Who converse with us should make friends

Yo, I recommend that you get back there

And sit back there, contemplate, calculate

And concentrate on these rhymes

That I picked to stick to your mind

And then I'll raise you straight to the next phase

'Cause I will amaze with much force

And like the power that comes from the source

Which is greater and stronger, of course

If you didn't know, I will tell you

That all the blind no-minds I give Hell to

And if you comprehend what is said

Then you'll be stayin two steps ahead

[Chorus]

One, two, steps ahead

One, two, steps ahead

One, two

One, two

One, one, two

One, one, two

One, one, one, one, one

One, two, two

[Verse 2]

I can't work with, those jerks who front

With the mic, cause I never liked fabrications

Wack creations that lack authenticity

For some time in my mind I've been wishin the

Fiends who do would just yield

And at the foot of my bed, I have kneeled

Thus revealed as a gift I have nurtured

And I hurt ya if you're not knowin

That the musical need is now growin

And like a man obsessed, I must

Go all out, show all out, blow all out

Throw all out, get on out of my path

Cause I laugh at the ones with no gas

I surpass the class to get geesed

Like the way the ballistic's released

And I won't cease til I cap them

Or slap the saps with my rappin

Continue on with my journey

All the negative ones don't concern me

My eyes are wise, I got cause to live

Positive, have to give, every way

Every day of my life, so I fight for the right

And get hype, so heed what I feed

And get fed, then you'll be livin two steps ahead

[Chorus]

One, two, steps ahead

One, two, steps ahead

One, two

One, two

One, one, two

One, one, two

One, one, one, one, one

One, two, two

[Verse 3]

I'm way ahead of you, yes I'm on top

It's me instead of you, with the lyrics you fear it

So get near it, and then you'll hear it clear

And concise, cause I paid the price to be

Talking here, rocking there, shocking here

Stop and stare, then compare if you wish

Because the others fess, I insist

So I will assist you to blend with this

Bend with this, tend with this, fend with this

As I ascend with my orals

You define and defy with high morals

And at the spot I will stop to throw darts

At the ones who proclaim with no aim

Cause they don't hold the fame, they're on mine

And since I'm well inclined and divine

I will have to ask you to come in

Move along with the tongue and the drummin

Progress and let the blessings be read

And you'll be staying two steps ahead

[Chorus]

One, two, steps ahead

One, two, steps ahead

One, two

One, two

One, one, two

One, one, two

One, one, one, one, one

One, two, two
