Lyric discussion by Days of the New 

This is another song that is similar to High Voltage...except that in Step Up Mike goes into detail about emcees and lyricists. In this song Mike tells about how you cant just rhyme without talent and expect to be called an artist. In the lyrics "And rapping over rock doesn’t make you a pioneer Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years" he explains how rap rock isnt new...its more like an evolution. I think really the main point is that if you dont have the skills to be a real emcee or artist then back off...but if you have what it takes then "Step Up" to the mic.
