Lyrics
Intro: Various Voices
857, We?re back
Yeah, Innovative Hip-hop, That?s right, Crazy
Verse: The 23rd Stallion
Take a stab at it grab at it take a jab at it fans panic Mr.charasmatic from the attic to the basement I stay bent
Wasted the stage is my play pen, where?s the beef!
Don?t stare at me or glare at me, naturally I get a little pissed off you actually thought I?d come at this soft?
Nah nah, we come at this harda, even though I?m spittin?
got me preachin? like your fatha Oooo haha, who is the first on my hit list it be the same names the remain on my wish list
Beg for forgiveness never scrappin? while rappin?
never strappin? whose packin? got ya clappin? and
yappin? stay askin? what happen cause stallion is jackin?
you for your microphone Ya wanna battle than
you might go home As soon as my mic goes on
than your fight is gone like WHAT?
Chorus
Where?s the beef, don?t want don?t start none
Where?s the beef, don?t front ya?ll want some
Where?s the beef, ya?ll start I?m a finish
Till all ya?ll diminish, yo we far from beginners
Where?s the beef, don?t want don?t start none
Where?s the beef, don?t front ya?ll want some
Where?s the beef, ya?ll start I?m a finish
Till all ya?ll diminish, cause your dealing with the winners
Verse: YKC
If you got beef, you better walk in reverse
And if you don?t, you can leave New York in a hearse
I mean, it?s like when I talk it?s rehearsed
Like MTV news, you hear it here first
Long island, you know where I been
You hear the sirens, they sound like violins
How we keep it live when, shots be firin
I?m just tryin to stay alive and
I rock thee M.I.C.
You stop me, it?s not likely
You not like me, you can?t pop me or drop me
You not that ill son, it?s probably your hobby
Man I?m blessed wit, these manifested
Thoughts from my mental that can?t be messed wit
What I can confess is, I am the best kid
To burn these tracks, I should be arrested
Chorus
Where?s the beef, don?t want don?t start none
Where?s the beef, don?t front ya?ll want some
Where?s the beef, ya?ll start I?m a finish
Till all ya?ll diminish, yo we far from beginners
Where?s the beef, don?t want don?t start none
Where?s the beef, don?t front ya?ll want some
Where?s the beef, ya?ll start I?m a finish
Till all ya?ll diminish, cause your dealing with the winners
Verse: Tur-Bo
I have yet to meet a rapper Who happens to have the character 1
That?s captured by my clique Less he spits just like an amateur
damage ya group of haters wit the greatest of ease
can?t perceive to win a battle when you outta my league,
if you need to understand why you ain?t up to par
just look at the place where we gave you scars
far better than ya veterans always leave?em tremblin?
After the impression I left, they?ll be rememberin?
could tell from ya tone that you think this a joke
Let?s see which one of us can stand when Turb?s emergin? from the smoke, I really hope, you can Provide us
with a challenge Since it?s hard to find a cat
That can survive against our talent
From victims that I finish, you don?t seem all that different
Ya fairly quick to start a fight, without expectin? to win it
Gotta weapon but possessin? no intentions to swing it,
so if your ready to get bested I suggest thacha bring it
Outro
Long Island?s finest
Yeah!!
