Rakim - “Once Upon A Rhyme (Original Version) [AKA Nickleplate Remix]”

Once upon a rhyme
The time late 60s, dark age of history
Murders and mysteries, the future was misty
Needles were shot down and crime was risky
Yo, check this party and stick with me
Race brutality because of my nationality
And this is what they call reality.  From that
State of mind and at that date and time, I was born
Inclined and waiting to shine.  Once upon a rhyme

“Once upon a time, not long ago” - Sample from Slick Rick - “Children’s Story” (x2)

In the
Beginning, the scеnery sets in New York, whеre times
Is hard and streets ain’t easy to walk, crimes
Is underrated, neighborhoods overpopulated, competition
Gets complicated, some can’t take it
No place to rest in The City That Never Sleeps.  To compete
It gets deep, I learned to play for keeps
And hawk the sidewalk, dominate the courts
I’m nice in all sports, was taught with high thoughts
Then came in Africans that knew where it was at
Spread across the map with no time flat.  They said
This kid name Herc started spinning records back
Had to look into that then get it down pat
First, I do research.  It’s gonna take time
Me and my crew is hitting all the parties we could find
Waiting for the day where I could go for mine
But later dates await down the line.  Once upon a rhyme
