Roxanne Shanté - Go On Girl [Remix]

No more Roxanne

well, back once again by popular demand
It's '88, y'all, so no more Roxanne
Just an everlasting name on some tapes that playin'
I let the new jacks reign but now I'm here to retain
What's rightfully mine and I think that you'll find
That if it's not Shanté, it's not genuine
I'm smart, intelligent, tasteful, and elegant
Deem all you female emcees to be irrelevant
I make a large amount of rhymes up per day
And when I finish, go check the survey
To see who's pumpin', and I'm on top
Because when I start rappin', I rap nonstop
Throwing def rhymes at you, silent as a statue
Daze, amaze, you will praise, and be infatuated
Some hate it, but I don't care
It doesn't matter 'cause you looking at a queen, my dear

The supreme highness, almighty know-the-topic exponent
My groove gets better and better, now don't it?
Just like a jumbo, people fiend
Study and try to copy off the Queen
So as quick as I write 'em, go and try to bite 'em
So I can knock you out the box with another item
A wonderful facility for rhyming with agility
You think that you can get with me? When will it be?
I'm a superheroine like Isis
And when I'm in a battle, I cause the greatest crisis
Realm of the queen, you know the routine
The flyest of them all is on the scene
You know what I mean
I got a role no other girls can portray
And if you want to describe me, this is what you say
"Sexy, devastating, awesome, and precious"
Some girls are fresh, but Shanté's the freshest
So what you know, y'all bust the show
Pay attention, listen, watch the girl go

Well, here's another chapter
Well, here's another chapter

Well, here's another chapter, and I have to
Release another bomb as quick as I grab the
M-I-C then I'll be straight
'Cause I'ma use the microphone as bait
For other female emcees, so what you gonna do to this?
You may be older than me, but you're new to this
'Cause I been out here, Queen of Emcees
When your man was walking 'round in mock necks and Lee's
While you were over here perpetrating the fraud
I was overseas on the charts with Boy George
You're the beginner, Shanté's the winner
Having all the competition for dinner
Sit you on a table with a plate and cup
Say grace and then eat your ass up
So step back 'cause I can hold my own
And everyone, y'all be easy 'cause this girl is gone

well, back once again by popular demand
well, back once again
well, back once again by popular demand
well, back once again
well, back once again by popular demand
So no more Roxanne
New jacks reign
What's rightfully mine
it's not Shanté, it's not genuine
To be irrelevant
Rhymes up per day
Go check the survey
pumpin', top
when I, rappin', stop
At you, statue
Praise, and be infatuated
It doesn't matter 'cause you looking at a queen, my dear
