[Intro: Mike Shinoda, Audience]
Alright you guys, we'll give you one more shot
You ready?
Who could rock a rhyme like this? I can
Bring it to you every time like this? I can
Who could rock a rhyme like this? I can
Step, step up, step, step up
San Diego, you guys are f— ready!

[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda, Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
Watch as the room rocks, mentally moonwalk
Mixed Media slangs bangin' in your boombox
Verbal violence, lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip-hop rhymes are childish
You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rappin' to a beat doesn't make you an MC
Lack of skill and facility, you're killin' me
With a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard that some of you are gettin' help with your rhymes
You're not an MC if someone else writes your lines
Rappin' over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
'Cause rock and hip-hop have collaborated for years
Now they're gettin' randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck, and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up? None of it's real
You wanna be an MC? You've gotta study the skill
Come on
[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington, Audience]
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Bring it to you every time like this? I can!
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Step, step up! Step, step up!

[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington, Both]
So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally, you don't have the hip-hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories (Bull—)
Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top 40 (Top 40)
And your record company is completely missin' it
All the kids are dissin' it for not bein' legitimate
So in a battle, you can't hack and react with wack shit
And get smacked with verbal backflips
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
It's taken decades for MC's to establish this
You're new to hip-hop, and welcome if you're serious
But not on the mic, leave that to the experienced

[Interlude: Mike Shinoda]
San Diego, make some noise!
Alriight ya'll, help us out with this shit right now

[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington, Audience, Mike Shinoda]
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Bring it to you every time like this? I can!
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Step, step up! Step, step up!
C'mon
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Bring it to you every time like this? I can!
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Step, step up! Step, step up! Step up!
[Bridge: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington, both]

[Chorus: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington, Both, Audience]
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!

Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Step, step up! Step, step up!
Who can rock a rhyme like this? I can!
Bring it to you every time like this? I can!
