[Hook]
The opening lines of Juelz Santana's Mic Check are a warning to his fellow rappers to stop copycatting him. He observes how others are stealing his ways, and it's getting out of control. He asserts himself by saying that he will let them know (just as he does with his female companions) that this is Pay Per View, and that his greatness is not to be imitated without pay. In the first verse, Santana is full of swagger and confidence in his skills. He tells us that he is the rap Ali, dodging and weaving before hitting the opposition with the same jab three times. He claims that his raps are like a big casino, and he's ocean eleven, plotting his moves. Santana acknowledges that he may not have sold the most, but he is still the most feared by other MCs. He challenges his audience to either comprehend his greatness or compliment it and asserts that everything he says is authentic.
In the second verse, Santana makes it clear that he is behind the Jack Move, and he's back, bringing the bad news for other rappers. He announces that he is the equivalent of cooked crack, with every brick he sells being equal to 50 keys. Santana paints a picture of himself as a player in the city streets, having sex with bisexual chicks and never forgetting his roots. He's cocky, and he's sure enough to lay down whatever anyone bets against him.
In the final verse, Santana flexes some more, saying that he's back like raw cocaine thrown on flames, and what came out was him, crack in the flesh. He claims that he's so hot that he won't stop, and he's not to be knocked, copied, watched, or copied. Santana is the stones rocked that froze blocks. He continues to be confident and impressive, always watching as the hoes jock him.
