Ain't No Half-Steppin' Lyrics
Artist: Big Daddy Kane
Album: Long Live The Kane
I'm just gonna sit here laid back to this nice mellow beat, you know
And drop some smooth lyrics
Cause it's รข'88
Time to set it straight, knowwhatI'msaying
And ain't no half stepping
Word
I'm ready>
Rappers stepping to me they want to get some
But I'm the Kane, so yo, you know the outcome
Another victory
They can't get with me
So pick a BC date cause you're history
I'm the authentic poet to get lyrical
For you to beat me, it's gonna take a miracle
And, stepping to me, yo that's the wrong move
So what you on, Hobbs, dope or dog food?
Competition I just devour
Like a pitbull against a Chihuahua
Cause when it comes to being dope, hot damn
I got it good, now let me tell you who I am
The B-I-G D-A-double D-Y K-A-N-E
Dramatic, Asiatic, not like many
I'm different, so don't compare me to another
Cause they can't hang, word to the mother
At least not with the principal in this pedigree
So when I roll on you rappers, you better be
Ready to die because you're petty
You're just a butter knife, I'm a machete
That's made by Ginzu, wait until when you
Try to front, so I can chop into
Your body, just because you try to be basing
Friday the 13th, I'mma play Jason
No type of joke, gag, game, puzzle or riddle
The name is Big Daddy, yes Big not little
So define it
Here's your walking papers, sign it
And take a walk
As the Kane start to talk, cause...
Ain't no half-steppin'
(3 times)
My rhymes are so dope and
The rappers be hoping
To sound like me, so soon I'll have to open
A school of MCing, for those who want to be in
My field in court
Then again on second thought
To have MC's coming out sounding so similar
It's quite confusing for you to remember
The originator, and boy do I hate a
Perpetrator, but I'm much greater
The best oh yes I guess suggest the rest should fess
Don't mess or test your highness
Unless you just address with best finesse
And bless the paragraph I manifest
Rap prime minister, some say sinister
Non-stopping the groove, until when it's the
Climax, and I max, relax and chill
Have a break from a take of me acting ill
Brain cells are lit, ideas start to hit
Next the formation of words that fit
At the table I sit, making it legit
And when my pen hits the paper, ahh shit!
I stop and stand strong over MC's
And devour with the power of Hercules
Or Samson, but I go further the length
Cause you could scalp my cameo and I'll still have strength
And no, that's not a myth, and if you try to riff
Or get with, the man with the given gift of gab
Your vocab, I'll only ignore
Be sleeping on your rhymes till I start to snore
You can't awake me, or even make me
Fear you, son, cause you can't do me none
So, think about it if you're trying to go
When you want to step to me, I think you should know that...
Ain't no half-steppin'
(3 times)
I appear right here and scare and dare
A mere musketeer that would dare to compare
Put him in the rear, back there where he can't see clear
Get a beer, idea or near stare, yeah
So on to be want to be competition
Trying to step to me--must be on a mission
Up on the stage is where I'mma get you at
You think I'm losing?
Psst, picture that...
Ain't no half-steppin'
(3 times)
Mister Cee, step to me...
The name is Big Daddy, you know, as in your father
So when you hear a def rhyme, believe that I'm the author
I grab the mic and make MC's evaporate
The party people say, damn...that rapper's great
The creator conductor of poetry
Et cetera, et cetera, it ain't easy being me
I speak clearly so you can understand
Put words together like letter, man
Now that's dictation, proceeding to my innovation
Not like the other MC's, who are an imitation
Or an animation, a cartoon to me
But when I'm finished, I'm sure that you are soon to see
Reality, my secret technique
Because I always speak with mentality
I put my title in your face, dare you to base
And if you try and come get it, yo I'mma show you who's with it
So if you know like I know, instead of messing around
Play like Roy Rogers and slooow doown
Just give yourself a break, or someone else will take
Your title, namely me, cause I'm homicidal
That means murder, cause I'm about to hurt a-
Nother MC, that try to get with me
I'll just break him and bake him and rake him
and take him and mold him and make him
Hold up the peace sign...
Assalam Walaikum!

ONE OF THA DAMN BEST RAPS IF NOT THA BEST RAP I EVER HEARD
Outstandingly interpreted & written! The best rap song ever!
The greatest song ive ever heard!
amzing lyrics like no other
fuck man hat shits so gots dam tight
Damn shit so tight these new niggaz aint got shit on this
kane is a legend and always will be, his rhymes are put together very well
just a shame the new skool artists aint got none of that shit.
All these rappers out now think they hard. If what they do is "hard", this this is unexplanable. >A&T<
this is what real rap is about.
rap has gotten so shitty these days.
rappers of today cant compare to this, they cant even rhyme good.
compare lil waynes lyrics to this song and big daddy kanes got him beat by a long shit
This songs fuckin ill DOPE SHIT XD
SIMPLY 1 OF THE GREATEST
This song along with rakim's microphone fiend are the two dopest hip-hop tracks, straight up!! Just a shame there hasn't been any emcee's as dope as they two since...
sickest man alive
rakim
eric b
nas
n so far
Seriously...this is the shit...
this bit...
The best oh yes I guess suggest the rest should fess
Don't mess or test your highness
Unless you just address with best finesse
And bless the paragraph I manifest
...gotta be the best 4 lines of a rap song ever written, just the way it flows together...legendary
This nigga rips the mic. All other nigga rappers are just that....niggaz! BDK is KING.
What are your feelings. in regards' to Scotlands Olympic Athletes ? How does the Olympic Committee view these Atheletes ? As the 10th Pan American what are the regulations ?
im luv this song and new skool sux 1988 time 2 set it straight
without question, BDK ripped the mic in half with this track
some good stuff right here
i loooooooooooooooooooove dizzz sooong !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thatz the shitt
Best flow I've heard, few can make something like this.
best rapper ever
Representin' for the brotherhood
This is so damn good. In my 30 years of listening to thousands of hip hop albums I've only ever heard 1 other MC with a flow like this but I won't mention who it is cause this is a BDK song. Dude is truly the king. And I agree with the other comment - this and Microphone Fiend from EB & Rakim are 2 of the greatest songs in the history of hip hop. Anyone who doesn't have this song in their top 10 list of greatest hip songs shouldn't even open their mouths about any discussion regarding hip hop.
The only line I noticed was wrong was " put words together like letter, man" its actually one word "letterman" from the 70's and 80's kids tv show electric company played by morgan freeman.
