[Preacher]
Dearly belovedwe are gathered here today
for this somber occasion
Please join us in the mourning of this U-47
It was a great microphone in it s day
until it met it s fate
One evening while it was in the studio
it was struck by the lyrical force of the Big Daddy Kane
So ashes to ashesand dust to dust
May this microphonerestin peace..

[Big Daddy Kane]
Knock knockguess who? Yesooh
The Bigger the Bthe Iggah the I
the Jigga the G is comin through
Yes I m the one with cloutthey re all talkin bout
To be frankI have the flavor like sauerkraut
The microphone assassinator and furthermore
I murdered plenty rappers and believe that I ll murder more
So if you ask to give the Kane a go
You better treat me like drugsand Just Say No
Because I utilize my skills to brutilize
And in a battleman you should see what I do to guys
Whenever the mic s mineI ll rock a hype rhyme
and come offlike dirty panties at nighttime
Cause any mic that I caressI finesse
with zestand just blessbest yet to progress
King Asiaticno other rapper stands this
You couldn t be a King if you played hockey in Los Angeles
I gets pi-daidtop gri-dadegotta admit ey
point blankthe kid s stri-daight
Cause when it comes to R-A-P-P-I-Nhuh
I got it locked up like a bullpen

"May you rest in peace" -> 3X
"If this meaning doesn t manifestput it to rest!" -> KRS-One

[Big Daddy Kane]
Rappers I get em and hit em and slit em and split em and rid em
Acquit emwhen I get wit emyou can tell that I did em
I take em and shake em and bake em and ache em and break em
and rake emyou can t awake em from the comatose way I make em
Cause when you re messin with me -- you know what?
You can swallow a live grenade and you STILL won t blow up!
Pickin up the microphone you shouldn t dare
It s like bein on a Stairmasterclimbin and goin nowhere
You re perpetratin like you re ready and able
but couldn t rock a showif the stage was a cradle
Your rhymes are old as an artifactand you don t want no part of that
So don t even start it black
Anyone riffin I show them how I m livin
And give them some of that treatment like my man Michael Bivins
I smack em upflip em and then shove em down
Huhoh I-ah-ah-I-ah-I-ah-I don t be fuckin around
To rip this microphone like this today
since eighty-seven I came a LONGLONG way
To headlininall the way from supportin..
.. and I know you ve been watchin me Norton!
Through my whole rap careera lot of younghuh
rappers sat thereand listeneda lot of younghuh
rappers sat thereand wishin.. but..
you couldn t see the Kane with X-Ray vision
And just because you didn t see my crew for a few
A lot of people thought the Wolfpack was through
But if you think the Kane and Scoob and Scrap ll breakup
I tell you like Marvin Gaye"wake up.. wake up.. wake up.."
Put it to restit s best to fess
Because the Kane is breakin rappers like the IRS
And consider this microphone the deceased
Now may it rest in peace

"May you rest in peace" -> 7X
"If this meaning doesn t manifestput it to rest!" -> KRS-One
