Fugitive

To the highest degree, in quality!
In our rap technology ladies and gentlemen
I am the rapper Ecstasy!
And standing to my side, this is my partner
The master rapper Jalil
Behind us on the 1 and 2, Grandmaster Dee
Do do doin' the do
And it goes a little something like this

It's true my friends who said they saw
My poster hanging up on the wall
The pictures clear there's no mistake
My video plays in every state
Well I didn't do a thing, I ain't got no kids
And they labeled me a fugitive

I ain't got no time to spend locked up
Cause I'm ridin' high on lady luck
Things could be better, I know they could
But you gotta take the bad
Along with the good
I'm one of many on a list

And I want you to acknowledge this
Well, things got heavy and that's a fact
So I've pulled a disappearing act
So, until things simmer down
I'm gonna do my thing underground
Presto, zesto, alakazam!

Never mind where I was, this is where I am
And right here and now before your very eyes
I will definitely do what others dared to try
Let me break it down for
You and stop all confusion
The microphone's the only thing I'll be using
Now the names Whodini but I'm no magician
See I came to this party
'cause I'm on a mission
I've been meaning to talk to you face to face

'Cause if it wasn't for you I
Wouldn't be in the place
When it comes to making money
I don't waste time
My brother I said please I'll be
In front of the line
'Cause I was taught the early
Bird always catches the worm
And a lesson well taught is
A lesson well learned that's why I'm on the
Move and everything's alright
And the clothes I need to
Wear were prepared last night

'Cause if I let you get ahead of me
You'll know you instead of me
When opportunity knocks
I've gotta be ready see?
He who hesitates is lost and the price
That you pay is called the cost
When they said money maker
They must have meant me
To make money and time you need a M and a E
'Cause time is money and money is time
You might waste yours, but I'm rocking mine
So rock on!

Look here!
When your money takes over like Grover
You ain't worth your weight in gold
All you need to getcha through is
A good ol' fashion roll
Just like Batman's on his way in the
Nick of time to save the day
These people are wishing upon a star and
Guys like us driving in big cars
So we pledge allegiance to the rhyme
To rhyme to every beat on time
And to our public to which we love
To show everybody what there really was
So united we stand, divided we fall
We're not the first but
Were still here y'all!
We're your best bet 'cause you can't get
A better show for your TV set

'Cause we're the ones who
Rock at your request
We're the ones to call if you want the best
The ones that'll zap you with the super blast
With jams from the present and
Hit's from the past
Hey, you never know what we're gonna do next
So don't waste your time, don't try to guess
'Cause we're the one and only
Masters of the ceremony
Guaranteed to rock the house
Definitely not a phony!

Now, those days are gone and I'm on the move
'Cause I ain't got nothing to prove
I've got a summons a day, for a year or less
They even got a warrant out for my arrest
'Cause I'm a fugitive and I'm on the run
And my line of work? that's number one
My best friend in the world is not a dog
Boy or girl my only friend in this world I
Know is my portable TV radio

So when we get up, out and on the go
We always travel in stereo
Because after I've put a town to use
I look back and see who's got the juice?
And when things finally simmer down
They won't have me to kick around!
