MC Lyte

MC Lyte - I Am Woman lyrics

Verse 1

I am woman, hear me roar

When I grab the mic it's never a bore

When I'm on stage, sayin' a rhyme

I often wonder what ya think of mine

Is it fresh or weak, or is it live or dead?

Yo, it's got ta be somethin' if you're boppin' your head

To the beat, can I get an amen brother?

Liked that rhyme? Well here goes another...

[Hold up, hold up, hold up. Check it out. Before we go any further we

gotta announce who we are. I am DJ K-Rock and this is my homegirl, MC

Lyte. Kick it for 'em!]

Verse 2

We had to pause for station identification

Now ya know my name here's some more information

Well, let's see, what you wanna know about me?

MC L-Y-T-E

[The Queen] Nah, that's too corny

[The Sexy] Nah, that gets the guys too horny

[The Best] Now that sounds conceited

But what is true is true, so it has to be repeated

The best is Lyte, when I'm on the mic

And MC's look straight ahead cos this pitch'll make your neck tired

And I say loosen up and relax

The fiction you been livin' Imma fill with facts

Right now...

[MC Lyte, DJ K-Rock. Name of the group is Me and My DJ. Kickin' it

live in '88. Do it.]

Verse 3

I am woman, hear me roar

Comin' out fresher and flyer than I did before

That's right, I'm well respected

Don't get stupid, I'm well protected

If ya wanna battle I'm well prepared

Me and K-Rock are far from scared, you know what

We're brave, livin' in a cave of gold

Waitin' for the misbehaved to get bold

But as I look around so far so good

MC's behaving just like they should

Hands are folded, no whispering or passing notes

All attention to me ya have to devote

I'm like a teacher, but then again not quite

Cos a teacher's salary I'm makin' a night

On the mic rhymes witty and bright

Maybe that's why the name is Lyte

Yo, bust it, Imma end it right here

DJ K-Rock, you end it over there
