Wrath Of My Madness

Queen Latifah

Compositor: D. Owens / M. James / Mark Howard James / Queen Latifah

My mellow Latee was kicking flavors
The R.E. posse said: Yo, Latifah, we can do this
So, I paused and took a thought, then my brilliance I caught
And I agreed, 'cause I already knew this
Now, you should wanna plex
'Cause I'm in full effect
Queen Latifah is five-0 on this set
You've been beggin' and dyin'
For somebody's rhymin' to set ya free
For God so loved the world, He gave ya me
I'm coolin', teaching those needin' schoolin'
And the mic? This mic in my hand? I'm rulin'
So, prepare your mind for my lifeline
And meet the new queen of royal badness
Latifah has the spirit, so head for the water
And dive into the wrath of my madness

Cost of living gettin' higher, cause them to run away
Queen Latifah gettin' higher, cause them to run away

Some MCs act bold and arrogant
Vain, and using each other to compete with
These subjects I pity, 'cause their rhymes are not witty like mine
To write a rhyme that's so delicious you can eat it, hehe
There are those who like my taste, but don't consider biting
There's penalties for those who don't do write and just be reciting
Everyone else's word that took a lot of thinking
It's not our fault your thoughts are shrinking
Well, mine are growing, yes
You know, like all the woman inside of me?
Despite what you do or say, and even in spite of me
Brothas catch my eye with little hijinks, like eye-winks
Dyin' to have a lover of my likeness
So, release all yo' shyness, just call me: Your highness
And dare to feel the wrath of my madness

Cost of living gettin' higher, cause them to run away
Queen Latifah gettin' higher, cause them to run away

Word-of-mouth is always everlasting
And everlasting are the words that I bring
The ruler of the ring is Lord Ramsey
And music is made by Mark, the 45 King
Ya tremble for my treble, ya beggin' for the bass
The voice is too vicious, the same as the pace
The crowds, they love me, the brothers give only hugs
Their shrink-to-fit button flies fit quite snug as a bug
You know why? Because I'm buggin', off the beats that DJ Mark is lovin'
So plex off the sounds that I'm pumpin'
I'm jumpin' with energy to turn your mind to gladness
Come on, just get into it
Don't lie and say ya been through it
Feel the wrath of my madness

Cost of living gettin' higher, cause them to run away
Queen Latifah gettin' higher, cause them to run away

The scene is mine, 'cause I took it
I took it for the money, and I took it for the fun
Don't step-up in my face, you don't wanna feel the taste
Don't try to play me out, 'cause I am not the one
Brothas on the bra strap, sistas clockin' my sound
Why? Because they wanna be down with the Queen
L-A-T-I-F-A-H, in-command
I supply the concept for you to understand
For those who wanna bite, don't make me have to fuss
The only thing you get is the gluteus maximus
Sucka's on the tip, ya lovin' me, ya leavin' me
You wish that, one day that you could have this
Come on, you know the time, just be thankful for the rhyme
And get up on the wrath of my madness

Cost of living gettin' higher, cause them to run away
Queen Latifah gettin' higher, cause them to run away
Cost of living gettin' higher, cause them to run away
Queen Latifah gettin' higher, cause them to run away
