Precisely The Right Rhymes - Gang Starr

My subject matter and context are blessed

Vocal inflection connects, it’s a slugfest

Ladies approach to hear quotes from the spokesman

Thoughts are like oceans for my lyrics to float in

I’m absolutely astute so salute

You try to be cute, and you get tossed like a crap shoot

Don’t misinterpret or slander

Just get with the words and the way I command ya

'Cause you’re in the right place, and luckily it’s the right time

And since I’m inclined, I’ll kick precisely the right rhymes

(Premier cuts and scratches «to kick the right rhyme»)

Listen, listen, listen, I’ll tell ya

My rhymes are like shelter, or rather like an umbrella

Protecting you from the weak stuff you heard from those creampuffs

About the schemes that they dreamed of

About the way they slayed this one or that one

But won’t step to me, 'cause they know the last one

Who tried to match the panache of the Guru

Received a curse that was much worse than voodoo

'Cause the effect of my voice is immense

It would make more sense if suckers hide in the basement

But yo I don’t look for hassles, my rhymes are like castles

I got much flavor and class too

I know you’ve notice I’m a writer of hype lines

Because I’m inclined to kick precisely the right rhymes

(Premier cuts and scratches «to kick the right rhyme»)

Precisely the right rhymes, simplistic but packed

With power and punch, and yo you might wanna step back

But stay close as your host serves hors d’oeuvres

Satisfying your cravings, and calming your nerves

See I have an interest in giving you more than the next man

'Cause my style is pure and

If you are sane and remain in your right mind

You’ll see I’m inclined to kick precisely the right rhymes
