!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Verse One:
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Follow me into a solo
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Get in the flow - and you can picture like a photo
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Music mixed mellow maintains to make
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Melodies for MC's motivates the breaks
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I'm everlastin, I can go on for days and days
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
With rhyme displays that engrave deep as X-rays
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I can take a phrase that's rarely heard, FLIP IT
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Now it's a daily word
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I can get iller than 'Nam, a killin bomb
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
But no alarm - Rakim will remain calm
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Self-esteem make me super superb and supreme
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
But for a microphone still I fiend
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
This was a tape I wasn't supposed to break
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I was supposed to wait, but let's motivate
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I want to see who can keep followin and swallowin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Takin the making, bitin it and borrowin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Brothers tried and others died to get the formula
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
But I'ma let ya sweat - you still ain't warm
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You a step away from frozen, stiff as if ya posin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Dig into my brain as the rhyme gets chosen
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
So follow me and were ya thinkin' you were first?
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Let's travel at magnificent speeds around the Universe
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
What could ya say as the Earth gets further and further away
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Planets are small as balls of clay
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Astray into the Milky Way - world's outasight
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Far as the eye can see - not even a satellite
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Now stop and turn around and look
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
As ya stare in the darkness, ya knowledge is took!
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
So keep starin soon ya suddenly see a star
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You better follow it cause it's the R
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
This is a lesson if ya guessin and if ya borrowin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Hurry hurry step right up and keep followin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
The Leader
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Verse Two:
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
This is a lifetime mission, vision of prison
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Aight listen
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
In this journey you're the journal I'm the journalist
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Am I Eternal? Or an eternalist?
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I'm about to flow long as I can possibly go
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Keep ya movin cause the crowd said so
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Dance - cuts rip ya pants
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Eric B on the blades, bleedin to death - call the ambulance
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Pull out my weapon and start to squeeze
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
A magnum as a microphone murderin' MC's
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Let's quote a rhyme from a record I wrote
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
{follow the leader} Yeah - dope
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Cause everytime I stop it seems ya stuck
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Soon as ya try to step off ya self-destruct
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I came to overcome before I'm gone
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
By showin and provin and lettin knowledge be born
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Then after that I'll live forever - you disagree?
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You say never? Then follow me!
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
From century to century you'll remember me
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
In history - not a mystery or a memory
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
God by nature, mind raised in Asia
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Since you was tricked, I have to raise ya
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
From the cradle to the grave, but remember
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You're not a slave
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Cause we was put here to be much more than that
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
But we couldn't see it because our mind was trapped
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
But I'm here to break away the chains, take away the pains
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Remake the brains, reveal my name
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I guess nobody told you a little knowledge is dangerous
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
It can't be mixed, diluted it can't be changed or switched
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Here's a lesson if ya guessing and borrowing
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Hurry hurry, step right up and keep following
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
The leader
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Verse Three:
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
A furified freestyle, lyrics of fury
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
My third eye makes me shine like jewelry
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You're just a rent-a-rapper, your rhymes are minute-maid
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I'll be here when it fade to watch you flip like a renegade
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I can't wait to break and eliminate
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
On every traitor or snake - so stay awake
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
and follow and follow, because the tempo's a trail
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
The stage is a cage, the mic is a third rail
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I'm Rakim the Fiend of a Microphone
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I'm not HIM, so leave my mic alone
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Soon as the beat is felt, I'm ready to go
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
So fasten your seatbelt, cause I'm about to flow
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
No need to speed slow down to let the leader lead
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Word to daddy, indeed!
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
The R's a rollin stone, so I'm rollin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Directions is told, then the rhymes are stolen
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Stop buggin', a brother said, dig em, I never dug 'em
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
He couldn't follow the leader long enough so I drug 'em
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
into danger zone, he should arrange his own
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Face it, it's basic, erase it, change ya tone
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
There's one R in the alphabet
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
It's a one-letter word and it's about to get
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
More complex from one rhyme to the next
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Eric B be easy on the flex
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
I've been from state to state, followers tailgate
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Keep comin but you came too late, but I'll wait
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
So back up, regroup, get a grip, come equipped
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You're the next contestant - clap ya hands, you won a trip!
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
The price is right - don't make a deal too soon
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
How many notes could you name this tune?
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Follow the Leader is the title, theme, task
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Now ya know, you don't have to ask
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Rap is Rhythm And Poetry, cuts create sound effects
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You might catch up if you follow the records E. wrecks
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
Until then keep eatin and swallowin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
You better take a deep breath and keep followin
!.fjknc! jgeffrb
The leader.
