Uh
Huh, well, this is how nice and smooth
It is, ha-ha
Hey, uh, listen to them

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do

So many times I heard you rhyme, but you can’t touch this
I’m kickin’ the type of flow that makes you say, "You’re too much, Chris"
So feel the fire of the one they call the Mac Dad
The fire’s what I pack and what I pack is real bad
I’d like to grab a hold of your soul and never let go
Do the jump, do the hump and say (Ho)
Now it’s a state of mind I’m in, huh
With rhyme after rhyme I win
The Mac (The Mac)
Known for breakin’ ‘em off somethin’
Then layin’ in the battle, bump
Keepin’ your speakers pumpin’
The mickety mickety Mac came to get a warm
And my pants to the back that’s my everyday uniform
You little creampuff Mac Daddy wannabe
Keep dreamin’ ‘cause a mack you will never be
So all y’all with the Dr. Seuss riddles
You can get the finger, the middle

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) Yo’ Chris, kick the next verse

I caught you on the scope (The scope)
Peepin’ out my rhymes ‘cause it’s dope (It’s dope)
And for you there’s no hope
My name (Is what )
The Daddy Mac, baby
Totally krossed out, catchin’ all the ladies
The age I be, I should be playin’ with toys
Instead I put my head into makin’ you make noise
That’s how I kick it, that’s my everyday life and
I rehearse to keep it sharp as a knife, man

I’m the wrong brother who sucks to be messin’ with
‘Cause when I put the mic in my hand I start wreckin’ it
They call me the D-A-double-D-Y-M-A-C
There ain’t another brother bad as me
When I (Let go) somethin’ from the (Ghetto), word
A little brother kickin’ rhymes like you never, ever heard
Daddy of them all, shootin’ to kill, grab your gun
Showin’ suckers how it’s done

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do

Yeah
Now y’all know
What’s up
And the Mac’s all that (Yeah)
And we gon’ kick one more verse for you all

So many times I heard you rhyme, but you can’t touch this
I’m kickin’ the type of flow that makes you say, "You’re too much, Chris"
So feel the fire of the one they call the Mac Dad
The fire’s what I pack and what I pack is real bad
I’d like to grab a hold of your soul and never let go
Do the jump, do the hump and say (Ho)
Now it’s a state of mind I’m in, huh
With rhyme after rhyme I win

I’m the wrong brother who sucks to be messin’ with
‘Cause when I put the mic in my hand I start wreckin’ it
They call me the D-A-double-D-Y-M-A-C
There ain’t another brother bad as me
When I (Let go) somethin’ from the (Ghetto), word
A little brother kickin’ rhymes like you never, ever heard
Daddy of them all, shootin’ to kill, grab your gun
Kris Kross, show ‘em how it’s done

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) ‘Cause that’s what I was born to do

(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) That’s what I was born to do
(Warm it up, Chris) I’m about to
(Warm it up, Chris) What’s what I was born to do

(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)

(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)

(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)
(Warm it up, Chris)
