[Intro 1]
[D]
[G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
Chumps [G]tryin me,
but when they eyein me
I build [D]in skills,
and to enhance my chances
I'm [G]thrilled, to be involved [D]with solvin
All the problems,
[G]with the way that the sound
Has gone down, [D]so I [G]frown at the scene
[D]Where you be takin it,
and like the [G]winds of change
I'll be breakin it up, shakin [F]it up
[G]Clearing it out,
airing it out, and bearing the clout
[D]On my che[G]st, like a crest that rests
On a tidal wave, only the good I'll save
When I [D]plunge,
and en[G]gulf the ones
Who aren't sons,
who converse with? and make friends
Yo, I recommend [D]that you [G]get back there
[D]And sit back there, contemplate,
[G]calculate
[D]And concentrate on these [G]rhymes,
[D]that I picked to stick
To your [G]mind,
[D]and then I'll raise you straight
To the [G]next [D]phase, cause [G]I will amaze
[D]With much force,
and like the [G]power that comes
From the source,
which is greater and stronger, of course
[D]If you did[G]n't know, I will tell you
That all the blind no- minds I give Hell to
And if you comprehend [D]what is [G]said
Then you'll be stayin two steps ahead

[Verse 2]
"One, two" steps [G]ahead

[Verse 4]
[G](Guru)
I can't work with, those jerks who front
With the mic,
cause I never liked fabrications
[D]Wack cre[G]ations that lack
authen[D]ticity
For some [G]time in my [D]mind
I've been wishin the
[G]Fiends who do would just yield
[D]And at the foo[G]t of my bed,
I have kneeled
Thus revealed as a gift I have nurtured
And I hurt ya [D]if you're not [G]knowin
[D]That the mus[G]ical need is now growin
And like a man obsessed, I must
Go all out, show [D]all out, [F#m]blow all o[D]ut
Throw all out, get on out of my [G]path
Cause I laugh at the ones with no gas
I surpass the class to [D]get geesed
Like the [G]way the ballistic's released
And I won't cease til I cap them
Or slap the saps with my rappin
[D]Contin[G]ue on with my journey
All the negative ones don't concern me
My eyes are wise, I got cause to live
[D]Positive, have to [G]give, every way[D]
[G]Every [D]day of my [G]life,
so I fight for the right
And get [D]hype, so [G]heed what I feed
And get fed, then you'll be
livin two steps ahead

[Verse 5]
"One, two" steps [G]ahead

[Verse 7]
(Guru) [G]I'm way
ahead [D]of you, yes [G]I'm on top
It's me instead of you,
with the lyrics you fear it
So get near it,
and then you'll hear it clear
And concise,
cause I paid the price to be
Talking [D]here, rocking [G]there, [D]shocking here
[G]Stop and stare, then compare [D]if you [G]wish
[D]Because the[G] others fess, I insis[D]t
So [G]I will assist you to [D]blend with this
Bend with this, tend with this,
fend with this
[G]As I ascend with [D]my orals
[G]You define and defy with
high morals
And at the spot I will stop to throw darts
At the ones who proclaim with no aim
Cause they don't hold the fame,
they're on mine
And since I'm well inclined and divine
I will have to ask you to come in
[D]Move alo[G]ng with the tongue
and the drummin
Progress and let the [D]blessings be read
And you'll be [G]staying
two steps ahead

[Verse 8]
"One, two" steps [G]ahead
