    Lyrics:
    It's a fact I'll attest to, mess around and I'll arrest you
    I ain't playing, you know what I'm saying?
    This ain't the best you've ever hear coming from a female MC
    But you know what I mean? (Hail to the Queen!)
    This MC stands for "Microphone Commando"
    When I command that you take a hand
    And throw it up in the air, yeah, just like that now
    Chill, and watch me rap cause I'm flowing (Flowing)
    Just like water I slaughter (Slaughter)
    A battle, put me in it, I win it
    The mission is music and rhythm
    Rhythm backed by words, all in my system
    System by techniques, techniques I got my heart in
    Heart into the music, music I take part in
    One try, one God, and one destiny
    Just dance for me
    "Dance to the music" (Repeat 2x)
    Now understand that you must (dance) because this is a beat to clap to
    My brother Lance said "Latifah you got to make them get up off their feet"
    So I put my rhyme to a DJ Mark beat
    Ample samples, this for example
    Are made by the 45 King, so cancel
    Your plans of moving to the front lines
    He's a DJ, producer, and mind you a friend of mine
    I hop, dip, and spend with the children
    So get down with the sound and you will lend
    To let me bring while I bring
    Queen Latifah to the 45 King, creating
    A new style in the name of the Flavor Unit
    That's the way we like it, so I'm doing it
    So if you want to know what the plan is to be
    I order you to dance for me
    "Dance to the music" (Repeat 2x)
    My voice is your choice at a stage show
    I do it for the Flavor Unit to make you say "ho"
    With powerful lyrics I'm armed
    To let a sucker step up and get bombed
    By a beat created by my producer
    To break you out of the stuff that you're used to
    This here is a moment of truth
    So take the record to the DJ booth
    And let's start this, let the beat get dumb
    Cause I'm a shake it all night and then some
    People dancing, I can spot 'em
    When I take control, you know I got 'em
    Stop the music? That's not a question
    The Flavor Unit takes no suggestions
    If you're not on the dance tip, here's your chance to be
    I order you to dance for me
    "Dance to the music" (Repeat 6x)

    When this dropped this whole album was nuts! mostly hated female emcees but she was one of the few that had such power and flow you couldn't help but love it!!!! Let's not forget the absolute genius of Mark the 45 king super underrated hip hop producer. Wish his personality was as good as his beats.
