[00:07.03]Intro: King Tech
[00:07.63]One two, one two
[00:10.26]We dedicate this one to the Hip-Hop culture, y'all
[00:16.52]Brought to you by the world-famous Wake Up Show
[00:23.06]Verse 1: RZA
[00:23.28]Bobby Steels, Staple' tales, MC's get your lips stapled
[00:26.54]Project Killa Hill is stamped on the map like the compass
[00:30.11]Sacred sword-play, tongue-twist piercin' holes in you
[00:33.21]You can't escape 70,000 kilowatts blast through your box
[00:36.35]Walk with alarm clocks, cars drivin' slow down the block
[00:39.59]One stopped, parks, pops the trunk
[00:41.73]Snare pops loud as Glock shots
[00:43.82]Bass like an M-80 in your face cops stop, give us citation
[00:47.50]We pause for radio station identification
[00:49.40]Interlude
[00:49.61]Wake up, wake up, wake up!
[00:51.30]Tech is on
[00:51.57]Verse 2: Tech N9ne
[00:51.76]When I woke up,
[00:52.82]I grabbed the mic and never choked up
[00:54.56]Busted a verse and all the G's in Cali loc'ed up
[00:56.54]When I was summoned
[00:57.70]Styles were mixed like the Drummonds
[00:59.29]Killer clown is comin',
[01:00.39]look around, your town is crumblin'
[01:01.93]This Big Tech from the Midwest
[01:03.22]Leavin' MC's listless on the Wake Up Show
[01:05.21]Make up no stories about my shake-up flow
[01:07.65]Put me off in a cypher
[01:09.04]Partner, you can't fuck with the sniper
[01:10.94]Your flow's premature, clean your dirty diaper
[01:13.00]Mic heister, psycho alpha-schizo
[01:15.32]Hypno, cryo gat flow, guru and ain't nobody tighter
[01:18.28]Sway and Tech heard me flow and it's sealed
[01:20.37]Now I got Swedish women yelling "Tech N9ne's vild!"
[01:22.86]Verse 3: Eminem
[01:23.15]This place is my house
[01:24.55]I might as well erase my face with Wite-Out
[01:26.55]‘Cause y'all can't see me like Ma$e's eyebrows
[01:28.99]Climbed out of a nice house
[01:30.50]Through the front window, and heard this guy shout
[01:32.63]"Hey that's my couch!"
[01:34.18]Pull a 9 out during a rhyme bout
[01:36.00]While I'm rippin' this shit,
[01:36.96]put a clip in and spit five rounds
[01:38.76]And murder you hoes worse
[01:40.00]than a convertible flippin' vertical
[01:41.59]Nose-first with the top off landing upside down
[01:44.18]Get tied down and duct-taped—fuck rape!
[01:46.77]I'd rather just hump a slut's leg with my nuts shaved
[01:49.46]It's Sway and Tech, two disk jockeys
[01:51.56]Breakin' so many freakin' needles
[01:53.09]I wonder if they inject
[01:54.07]Verse 4: Xzibit
[01:54.20]Lo and behold, better than platinum and gold
[01:56.58]Yes, God bless success, never forsake the soul
[01:59.28]Xzibit take control—locked,
[02:00.82]loaded, and ready to roll
[02:02.12]Play the upper hand,
[02:03.26]a man that's never gon' fold
[02:04.51]‘Cause your tape sucks,
[02:05.58]find a new hobby that you can take up
[02:07.40]Or listen to my niggas
[02:08.57]Tech and Sway so you can wake up
[02:09.99]The X-Man, catch me doin' drills in the Danger Room
[02:12.68]Big game huntin' from high noon to the full moon
[02:15.00]Verse 5: Pharoahe Monch
[02:15.01]With synonyms, I get an adrenaline rush
[02:17.37]From minimum thrusts
[02:18.37]Bust multiple assaults in small interims
[02:20.45]As horrid as Boris Karloff was
[02:22.35]When I cut your neck,
[02:23.80]leave a little piece of skin
[02:24.83]So the head won't fall off
[02:26.14]Hauled-off, sawed off shotgun blast
[02:27.88]He asked: "Why did he have to die like cast metal?"
[02:30.72]Oh, see, now like Omar Credle
[02:33.62]We pone pedal at a high resolution
[02:35.77]On the Wake Up Show with Sway,
[02:37.04]Tech and DJ Revolution
[02:43.38]Verse 6: Kool G Rap
[02:43.62]I sway the TEC with the Tech and Sway
[02:45.46]Step away, weapon spray, rep today
[02:47.05]Who over debt to pay get swept away
[02:48.91]Across the whole board, like checker play
[02:50.85]When I blaze, your whole sect' arrays
[02:52.54]Wake Up Show for those who slept away
[02:54.49]Niggas that met the tre, hit the deck and pray
[02:56.72]DJ Revolution, spinnin' like
[02:58.20]lead from out the Heck and K
[02:59.66]Tearin' your neck away,
[03:01.13]flood up the street with blood redecorate
[03:02.93]until the head of Jakes investigate
[03:04.70]Interlude: Jayo Felony
[03:04.80]Sway can give it to,
[03:05.70]but what you gon' do with it?
[03:07.27]Tech can give it to you, but what you gon' do?
[03:09.81]Rev can give it to you, but what you gon' do with it?
[03:12.41]I can give it to you, wha-wha-wha-what-what!
[03:14.84]Verse 7: Chino XL
[03:15.05]Chino make the world go 'round
[03:16.84]Fuckin' up entire record companies
[03:18.78]like Harrell did to Motown
[03:20.32]Vominous talk, poison pen, ominous walk
[03:22.80]Which flow will I destroy you with this time
[03:24.48]The most commonest thought
[03:25.68]The drama that's brought caught us
[03:26.52]In the midst of a sibling rivalry
[03:28.03]For instance, there is nothing born in
[03:29.21]existence that can survive with me
[03:30.71]Clone me like sheep,
[03:31.76]I clean house like Tony Randall
[03:33.15]My style filed sexual harassment, like Tisha Campbell
[03:35.99]You wack like Will Smith,
[03:37.08]your rhyme style is pansy
[03:38.49]I fuckin' murder your young style,
[03:39.68]like Jon Benet Ramsey
[03:41.03]Now who the master to beg?
[03:42.23]Your demo get passed on the reg'
[03:43.71]You shouldn't have been signed
[03:44.83]if you had a white cast on your leg
[03:46.27]I'm Wake Up Show reppin' with Sway and Tech
[03:47.77]My TEC's like Tekken, the industry weapon
[03:49.66]I'm Chino X—bring KRS in!
[03:51.55]Verse 8: KRS-One
[03:51.80]De-de-de-da-de-de-de-da-di-day
[03:54.18]KRS-One comin' with the Tech and Sway
[03:56.33]Yo, I rock up on the littlest
[03:57.97]set and up on the biggest set
[03:59.07]As ill as it gets I still manage
[04:00.56]to wiggle your neck with sweat
[04:01.92]Never forget: the bigger the budget, the bigger the debt
[04:04.25]You gotta be, willin' to rock in the middle of dry
[04:06.20]And in the middle of wet
[04:07.10]But I'm willin' to bet,
[04:08.15]on a Sway and a Tech, they stay in effect
[04:09.84]Never been a pain in the neck, they gainin' respect
[04:11.78]Nevertheless I wreck you
[04:13.12]Now you know what Sway and Tech do
[04:14.92]I'll be back, but for now just seckle
[04:17.65]Ha ha ha! Fresh for 1999, you suckers!
