   Verse 1
   
   Some people call me Shanie, some people call me Rox
   And those who try to diss I just knocks them out the box
   Cos I'm Shanti and y'all know the routine
   And here we go again, so all hail the queen
   I left you for a while but it was worth the wait
   Because it gave me just enough time to create
   A funky rhythm that's guaranteed to move the world
   Have the party people screamin' out "Go on Girl!"
   Just like Diana Ross I'm the boss
   And those who disapprove you can go for yours
   But to think a girl like me, ha, is easy to take
   You should treat me like Nell Carter, Give Me a Break
   Cos I'm the super female that's called Shanti
   And like Hurricane Annie I'll blow you away
   Whenever I'm in a battle, yo, I don't play
   So you best go about your way and have a nice day...
   
   Verse 2
   
   A lotta MC's today really know how to please
   But I gave birth to most of them MC's
   So when it comes around to the month of May
   Send me your royalty check for Mother's Day
   Because yo, ya know, ya can't deal with this
   I'm Shanti the microphone grandmistress
   A pioneer like Lola Folana
   With a name that stands big like Madonna
   Speakin' of Madonna some girls on the mic
   Rap like virgins and get real tight
   But I get loose with the rhymes I produce
   That's why I'm queen of the crew with the juice
   Cos I'm the super female that's called Shanti
   And like Hurricane Annie I'll blow you away
   Whenever I'm in a battle, yo, I don't play
   So you best go about your way and have a nice day...
   
   Verse 3
   
   Shanti, the baddest around
   And a name like that can be broken down
   As Supreme Highness Almighty Noble Topics Exponent
   And any title for a girl, you can believe I own it
   Cos to me there ain't nuttin' fresher
   For me to rock...my pleasure
   I'll pick up the microphone and start rockin'
   Say the funky rhymes that have the people clockin'...
   Me, the S-H-A-N-T-E
   Good lookin', never took'n female MC
   I'm five foot four, maybe a little bigger
   Brown skin complexion with a nice figure
   Yes, the super female that's called Shanti
   And like Hurricane Annie I'll blow you away
   Whenever I'm in a battle, yo, I don't play
   So you best go about your way and have a nice day...
   
   Verse 4
   
   You may remember the voice from a few years ago
   When I first came out and dissed UTFO
   I chilled for a while, I put down my pen
   But now some suckas from the Bronx got me started again
   Now I'm not out to diss the whole Boogie Down
   Just a featherweight crew from that part of town
   You made a little record and then you start frontin'
   Tried to diss the Juice Crew but ain't hurt nuttin'
   Now KRS-ONE you should go on vacation
   With that name soundin' like a wack radio station
   And as for Scott La Rock, you should be ashamed
   When T La Rock said "It's Yours", he didn't mean his name
   So step back peasants, poppin' all that junk
   Or else BDP will stand for Broken Down Punks
   Cos I'm an All-Star just like Julius Erving
   And Roxanne Shanti is only good for steady servin'
