[00:00.00]Step Up - Linkin Park (林肯公园)
[00:06.61]Yo
[00:07.72]Watch as the room rocks
[00:09.29]Mentally moonwalk
[00:10.28]Mixed media slang banging in your boombox
[00:12.69]Verbal violence
[00:13.50]Lyrical stylist
[00:14.67]In a time when rock/hip-hop rhymes are childish
[00:17.43]You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty
[00:19.60]Rappin' to a beat doesn't make you an emcee
[00:21.97]With your lack of skill and facility you're killing me
[00:24.34]And a DJ in the group just for credibility i heard that some of you are gettin' help with your rhymes
[00:29.20]You're not an emcee if someone else writes your lines
[00:31.69]Rappin' over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
[00:33.88]Cuz rock and hip-hop have collaborated for years
[00:36.43]But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up
[00:38.87]All after a fast buck
[00:39.99]And all the tracks suck
[00:41.24]So how does it stack up
[00:42.55]None of its real
[00:43.61]You wanna be an emcee
[00:44.67]You gotta study the skill who can rock a rhyme like this
[00:47.96]Bring it to you every time like this
[00:50.71]Who can rock a rhyme like this
[00:53.26]Step step up step step up so you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
[00:58.00]But mentally you don't have the hip-hop energy
[01:00.62]With a tendency to make up stories
[01:02.68]It sounded like the only hip-hop you've heard is top-40
[01:05.24]And your record company's completely missed it
[01:07.86]And all the kids are dissin' it for not being legitimate
[01:10.29]So in a battle you can't hack it
[01:12.23]React with whack sh*t and get smacked with verbal backflips
[01:14.78]Get your a** kicked i'm a fabulous battle catalyst
[01:17.40]It's taken decades for emcees to establish this
[01:19.84]You're new to hip-hop and welcome if you're serious
[01:22.21]But not on a mike leave that to the experienced using waves of sound the true master paralyzes his opponent
[01:31.37]Leaving him vulnerable to attack who can rock a rhyme like this
[01:36.41]Bring it to you every time like this
[01:38.65]Who can rock a rhyme like this
[01:41.34]Step step up step step up who can rock a rhyme like this

[01:50.89]Step step up step step up step up after years of painstaking research by the world's leading
[02:35.44]Sound scientists
[02:37.28]We here at the sound institute have invented a reliable
[02:40.27]Audio weapon system
[02:42.09]Actual movement of musical sound in space is used to
[02:45.09]Carefully attack
[02:45.94]And neutralize the cellular structure of the human body
[02:49.16]So the question must be asked who can rock a rhyme like this
