Linkin Park

Hybrid Theory EP


Yo
Watch as the room rocks
Men only moon walk
Mixed media slang
Banging in your boom box verbal violence
Lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish
You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an mc
With your lack of skill and facility
You're killing me
And the dj in the group just for credibility

I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes
You're not an emcee if someone else writes your lines
And rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years
But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up - none of it's real
You want to be an emcee you've got study the skill

Chorus:
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up

So you pick up a pen
And write yourself a new identity
But mentally you don't have the hip hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard
Was top 40 (top 40)

And your record company completely missing it
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
So in a battle you can't hack it
React with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal back flips
Get your ass kicked by a fabulous battle catalysts
It's taken decades for emcees to establish this
You're new to hip hop and welcome if your serious
But not on the mic
Leave that to the experienced

Spoken
Using the waves of sound
the true master Paralyses his opponents
leaving him vulnerable to attack

Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up

Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up

Spoken
After years of pain staking research
by the world's Leading sound scientists,
we here at the sound Institute
have invented a reliable audio weapons system.
Actual movement of musical sound in space
used to Carefully attack and neutralize
the cellular structure of The human body,
so the question must be asked.

Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up

Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up

Spoken
Mixed media..step up to the microphone..
And you do it like this...
