[CHORUS: J. Sands] Yo, it's the Lone to the Cata, Cata to the -lysts Yo, I'm just a solo MC, it's like this Rawls makes the beats that make you shake your hips Lone to the Cata, Cata to the -lysts Yo, Lone to the Cata, Cata to the -lysts Experimentin with styles like scientists No matter what your name is, you can still get dissed Cause it's the Lone to the Cata, Cata to the -lysts [VERSE 1: J. Sands] Yo, it all began around '84, snatchin candy out the bus store Now& Laters, Lemonheads, then we fled through backyards Duckin police, shorties were trackstars Hoppin fences, dividin candy on the benches Is what we did, ???? jocks and color tube socks Huffies were the shit, I pop a Willie and go two blocks Easy, without fallin, Stevie took his ball when We did pick him for hoopin, 21 Chicago I rocked 33, I was Kareem without the goggles Ridin skateboards downhills made wheels wobble The fast life, niggas get stuck with broken bottles My cousin Pablo got bagged for coke and wrote a novel Saturday, put the tape in the radio So I could dub the latest from Flash and Kurtis Blow From 'The Breaks' to 'The Message' I learned every word Yo check it, I'm in the shower rockin rhymes butt-naked The birth of a MC at the age of 13 Right before crack turned dimes to burnt fiends Hip-hop was like the beatuy in the Jet magazine Had me open, addicted to rap like chain smokin Writin rhymes everywhere I went, havin older cats bent Sayin shortie 13 will represent So realize this wasn't just a one-night stand Cause I seduce ears infinitely once rhymes land Nowadays LP's just might have one nice jam, and a remix But 85 is just too blind to see this I didn't plan to be this, I was mathematically implanted in time With a ???? wind Yo, is you with me? Cause Babylon be always out to get we The black cops about 50-50 [CHORUS] [VERSE 2: J. Sands] Aiyo, a lotta cats can only see the bad in rap Matter of fact, they only focus on what it lacks Yeah, I know about the frontin MC's, and yeah, they wack Plus the jokers who be makin the tracks, but check it, black Politickin ain't gon' take nothin back, so keep it movin Be a contribution to hip hop, that's what we're losin Let the seeds know about Soulsonic, Mantronix Rock Steady, Fab Five Freddy, Busy Bee, Moe Dee And how BDP taught 'Poetry' Plus we can't forget the DJ's and graffiti If you agree, then please proceed to follow me I take you through dimensions, just lend me your attention So you can make your own comprehension of what I mention See, knowledge is power, wisdom's used as the extension To make the understanding more clearer is my intention So head's gon' be left out hangin in suspension like a lynchin A lotta cats rhymes' are full of tension Can't even walk the block without the bodyguards and henchmen Paranoid and always flinchin, even your crew talkin dissentient They see the 'masquerade' like George Benson Lone Catalysts, strategists of the new world I used to love H.E.R. too, but now I'm focused in on you Cause you will be the one who takes us to the next millennium The Most High controls the universe like a pendulum Swingin back and forth, forth and back and forth Balancin nine planets on a circular course There's no remorse, MC's need to carry the weight And bury the hate, and realize these are serious stakes No time to waste, cause we're livin in a high-tech state So listen close, so there won't be no debate [CHORUS]
