Yo  yo one two one two  yo live in effect
We got the king  Ruler Zig-Zag-Zag Allah

Commonly known to y'all as  the RZA
Yo  before we go into side two or side B of this double CD
Know what I'm sayin'  I want to give y'all a little announcement man
For the last year there's been a lot of music comin' out
The shit been weak  know what I'm sayin'
A lot of niggaz trying to take hip-hop
And make that shit R n' B  rap and bullshit ya know what I'm sayin'
Or make that shit funk
F**k that  this is MCin right here  this is hip-hop
Wu-Tang  Wu-Tang  gonna bring it to you in the purest form
I got the GZA on my side  Killah Priest
Sunz of Man  Royal Fam  Killarmy  Gravediggaz  12 O'Clock
Yo  we want to let y'all niggaz know somethin' man
To my people all across the world  Japan  Europe  know what I'm sayin'
Canada  know mean  Austria  Germany  Sweden

Yo  this is true hip-hop you listenin' to right here
In the pure form  this ain't no R n' B with a wack nigga takin' the loop
Be loopin' that shit thinkin' it's gonna be the sound of the culture
Ya know what I'm sayin'
(That player bullshit)
Ya know what I'm sayin'  All that player dressin' up
On this shit  actin' like this some kind of fashion show man
Ya know what I'm sayin'  This is hip-hop right here
Ya know what I'm sayin'  This is lyrics  MCin
And yo  to y'all niggaz who think you going to become an MC overnight
Ya know what I'm sayin'  Better snap out that f**kin' dream
Man it takes years for this you  cat in the hat ass rappers
You Dr  Seuss  Mother Goose  simple minded
(Stop runnin' up on niggaz with all that wack shit)
Word up man
(I'm talking about you MC's)
You ain't no MC  niggaz ain't made for this ya know what I'm sayin'
This shit was only built for Cuban Linx  we told y'all niggaz back then
And then everybody wanted to change their motherf**kin' name
Ya know what I'm sayin'  We come out with a style
Now everybody wanna imitate our style and all you producers out there
Ya know what I'm sayin'  It's all good to show love to a nigga
But stop bitin' 'my shit  ya know what I'm sayin'
Come from your own heart with this shit
And all y'all MC's  stop biting from my niggaz
We told ya'll niggaz on the f**king Cuban Linx album
Don't bite our shit  y'all niggaz keep biting
Yo  I'm going to tell y'all something man
It's time for the Wu revolution right here
To all my niggaz across the world
Raise your motherf**king fist in the air
And get ready for the Triumph
'Cause the Gods is here to take over this shit word up  peace
