Here we go (come on come on) |
|
Now here we go |
|
Here we go (come on come on) |
|
Yeah |
|
Stay strong this ain't for the plain hearted |
|
My name's honored cause my style is insane retarded |
|
Remain hottest from St. Marks to St. Thomas |
|
Take game farther than the Putt-Putt planes chartered |
|
The same artist who smoke rain forest will bang hardest |
|
My brain smartest break a nigga like a lame promise |
|
All city like train bombers check out the pictures we painted (yeah) |
|
More colorful than Kelis naked |
|
Your skills is least debated and your album least awaited |
|
Even Big Tiger wouldn't let you in the basement |
|
Face it y'all niggas face down with your legs kicking |
|
They call your momma Roy Jones cause she raised chicken |
|
Your down for the count like Rah Digga I'm straight spitting |
|
Make pidgins say, "uh uh no they didn't" |
|
Yes we did so god bless the kid yo |
|
I got my own so I never stress his no |
|
Chorus (repeat 1x) |

[first 2 lines quoted from |
|
Eric B. & Rakim:Follow The Leader |
|
In this journey you're the journal I'm the journalist |
|
Am I eternal or an eternalist? |
|
As soon as we showed up I sensed nervousness |
|
As soon as we rolled up y'all niggas burn to this |
|
Here we go |
|
Come on |
|
Yeah yeah (yeahhh) |
|
Yeah yeah (yeah yeah come on) |
|
Yeah yeah |
|
Come on come on |
|
Yo we send this bullet straight towards your brain |
|
We taking over like the Moors in Spain there's more to gain |
|
Runaways get aboard the train (come on) You can't ignore the pain (no) |
|
When it come down like the pouring rain |
|
Caught the train of thought and claim to cross the broad terrain |
|
The cold weather break your spirit like a water main |
|
I looked in your eyes and I saw the shame |
|
Y'all don't know that a greatness came before the chain |
|
Till you can't imagine a future where this all could change |
|
If one of us ain't free then we all to blame |
|
So we attack each other fighting project wars and thang |
|
It's all the same across the board we off again |
|
You wanna sieve through that shit then you can call my name |
|
Kweli I chopped it up like raw cocaine |
|
I drop jams in top ten I'm not for the fame |
|
You wanna test and I bet you get wrecked like lost planes |
|
Yo |
|
Chorus (repeat 2x) |

|
I rock for the purest and I rock for the players |
|
I rock for the fellas and I rock for the ladies (come on) |
|
I rock for the elders and I rock for the babies (yeah) |
|
I rhyme to the sirens that cry in the night (yeah) |
|
Live on the mic even though I've been dying to write (yeah) |
|
Since the day of flying a kite and ridding my bike (come on) |
|
Open my eyes and keep the prize within my line of sight (yeah) |
|
Cats dropped out of school to keep fiends high on the pipe (word) |
|
Seem like that's the get away of trying to fight |
|
The system thats based on trying to stop you from shinning your light |
|
Dying in spite of getting rich That's why I rhyme like |
|
a battle emcee Battling the tragedies and fallacies |
|
That be killing niggas quicker than infant mortality |
|
They acting like whats going on now is distant reality |
|
Behaving so casually that they become a casualty |
|
Plus they don't wanna battle me anyway |
|
They try to walk away but they stumble like Macy Gray |
|
Cats hit the tunnel to rumble and say, "Hey DJ!" |
|
Make me wonder why they call Sunday the lazy day |
|
Chorus (repeat 2x) |
