The Meaning
Lyricist：Berger Milo Jason, Meltzer Erik P
High & Mighty back in this
(You think you know what I'm meanin')
I'm just a '86 witness
(You think ya know)
Take it out you suckers, you don't know how I did it
(You think you know what I'm meaning)
Yo yo, you're now a game and don't think you're gonna win it
(You think you know what I'm meaning)
Maybe if I popped Cristal
Said I had a Lexus or a triple beam I'd get a deal
I'd rather speak upon a Maurice Cheeks steal
It's the outta paper, not the caps I peel
I used my independent, money to pay the rent
Remain at hell bent and far from heaven sent
Where they went? The days when mics got destroyed
B's just boyed, the soft punks got toyed
Unemployed, was a happy-go-lucky MC
And now that's all they fuckin' be bringing to me
Where they went? The summer concerts on concrete
Elite could put twelve G's in the seat
Now I release the masterpiece of my music
It's '99 and no one could use it
They rather re-use it, the audience confuse it
Take Chuck D's Time Bomb, try to defuse it
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
Ya, you're not original
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
The meaning, ya think you know what I'm meaning
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
Ya, you're not original
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
Ya think you know what I'm meaning
It seems that you gotta come cheap to compete
That's why when I chose to go deep, you go sleep
On a verse, you not gonna get at first
Like O.J. would never ever get a hearse first
When he die, think about the lie over lie
From verse about the hearse of this rap universe
'Cuz radical elements remain eloquent
The repercussions tear right through the fabric
So act quick, kids at the top is lackin'
They tryin' to turn hip hop to just plain rappin'
Let the poppers pop and the breakers break
'Cuz there's just so much of this shit that I can take
Now I can't stand the rain, this shit's all the same
Mr. E, excommunicate your whole game

Back in '88 baby, everything was gleaming
The meaning, you think you know what I'm meaning
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
Ya, you're not original
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
Ya think you know what I'm meaning
Where your skills at, where the ill raps?
Where the new tracks, where your heart at?
Where the new jacks, gettin' contracts?
I got a rhyme that I ain't even wrote yet
Save the drama classes for the masses
Hip hop, glaucoma, baby, I prescribe the glasses
The vision's near-sighted and narrow-minded
The wack shit that you hear is all hate and fight
Take it like harder, fools act retarder
In '98, lyrics just disregarded
Now how hard it be yo to really concentrate
Writin' metaphors, wack shit I annihilate
Now fools comin' through spellin' much gibberish
While Mighty Mi and I stay acknicilous
Raps are bed pan and I be the nurse
Removin' shit wit lyrics that I disperse
Nail ya coffin, 'cuz death's epitome
Ya fate be taken out is most likely
Not likely, we be 'The High & The Mighty'
Stompin' out crews, the team of the '90's
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
Not original
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
The meaning, you think you know what I'm meaning
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
Ya not original, ya not
I've seen your kind before, you're not original
You think, you know what I'm meaning
Gang Starr, shoulda been number one to me
And D.O.C., shoulda been number one to me
Live Team, shoulda been number one to me
The Disc Masters, shoulda been number one to me
Show & A., shoulda been number one to me
The Crown Rulers, shoulda been number one to me
And Dilated, shoulda been number one to me
KMD, shoulda been number one to me
The Tough Crew, shoulda been number one to me
And JVC, shoulda been number one to me
The Main Source, shoulda been number one to me
The Arsonists, shoulda been number one to me
