The Best Lyrics - Kool Moe Dee

The best 

Like other music, rap is an art 

And if you wanna get the feeling, got to feel it in your heart 

You need brain power, dictation, vocabulary, articulation 

Creativity and originality, execution of a feud formality 

Versatility and a voice that's loud with the ability 

To take a crowd to its apogee 

And always has a feeling like you're havin' a mental orgasm 

Makin' all minds come to one conclusion 

You are the best and it's not an illusion 

The best, rockin' my beat 

The best 

For instance, if this record was an atom, I'd be the nucleus 

The center of attention, Kool Moe Dee 

And I'm just like the core of an apple, the priest of the chapel 

With the mic in my hand, I'm like a surgeon with a scalpel 

Ready to operate the rhymes that I create 

Sounds like music to your ears 'cause I can combinate 

Bass and treble to create a level 

Of highs and lows and sounds that goes with syncopated 

Concrete-created beats that meet the standard of a street credit 

Gotta critique, a rhyme, if it's weak 

You won't wanna speak if your rhymes not peak 

With verbs and nouns and adjectives combined to make a phrase 

That'll play with a beat, stop and start, slow it down at a part 

And totally amaze the whole crowd 

Leave 'em in a state of awe 

'Cause I'm as perfect as a diamond without a flaw 

And yes, I'm legendary, also very, very educated 

Proficient and extraordinary 

In my field, the other rappers yield 

A knight in shining armor and the mic is my shield 

In rap, I'm vital, the other rappers' idol 

The best MC and Moe Dee's my title 

But you can call me Kool 

The best, the best 

The best 

Now when I rock instead of just average 

I'm better than the average man and that's why I can 

Make a real human feel like a mannequin 

I mean, I'm cold heart, [Incomprehensible] from the time I walk in 

I'll shock ya and amaze ya, hit ya, then I'll daze ya 

Either way, I'm gonna phase ya 'cause I'm sharp as a razor 

When I'm rhymin' to the cut, you know what? 

I'm the best MC, many imitate me 

They never would admit it, they just can't get it 

I rhyme like the rest but the juice I possess 

Always seems to be more, I'm a rhyme connoisseur 

My taste for the beat is also elite 

I'm the best hip-hopper from off the street 

'Cause when I'm rhymin' on the mic, I always take control 

Can't another rapper touch me with a 10 ft. pole 

The best, the best 

I rhyme a 100 miles an hour with lightning speed and power 

Make the sweetest of the sweet MCs look sour 

Timber as they tower because I devour 

Any other rapper and I can prove it now 

Or a little bit later 'cause I'm a graduator 

From a rhymin' alma mater but some say alma mata 

Like you say patata, I say potato 

Tomata, tomato, my data's up to data 

'Cause somethin' is the matter with those of you say dada 

Could mean opposite of mama like the kids at Wonderama 

I'm very good at actin', I'm very good at drama 

I confuse you with a period, colon and a coma 

'Cause when I'm rhymin' and I take a pause 

You think the rhyme is over 

But when you and yours really check out what I'm doin' 

Then you say, ooh 

When they say who's the best MC to you 

You'll look at me, then you say I know who 

(Moe Dee, Moe Dee) 

It's Kool Moe Dee 

(Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee) 

The best 

(Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee) 

The best 

(Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee) 

The best 

(Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee) 

The best 

(Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee) 

The best 

(Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee, Moe Dee) 

The best 

The best, the best, the best 

The best, the best, the best
