|
Aiyyo, basic mathematics - add shit, subtract shit |
|
Multiply, divide, break down shit to fractions |
|
Equality - Not greater than or less than |
|
Los Angeles, Brooklyn, connect to Manhattan |
|
Expansion Team - Movin' through lights, cameras and action |
|
Thoughts to ideas, designs to manufacturin' |
|
??? to we blaze and make it happen |
|
On stage I quote the bible then blast like Sam Jackson |
|
{*"I jump on stage and change forms*} |
|
Rock it, don't bug out, kid, my team scores |
|
A lot of emcees out there with phony lives |
|
They master the studio but never master the ceremon' |
|
Check it live |

You know we - break barriers, redefine the coast |
|
Classic hits like Ice Cube's "AmeriKKKa's Most" |
|
Dilated - extra extra, read the front page |
|
Catch us live on stage - like Roxanne Shante |
|
Straight out the cage - learn ya lesson |
|
Yo, studio sessions are not shows |
|
Learn ya lesson - in shows and studios |
|
This here breath controls all I got to lose |
|
But the architects respect it - live in House of Blues |
|
Flow for my peeps - thats true |
|
You know we take it live on stage |
|
And new levels for you |
|
Thirty bucks a ticket? |
|
No, that's breads and breaks |
|
So I'ma stay sharp and seperate the real from fakes |
|
You know.. |

I got the crowd in the palm of my hands |
|
It go like the dominant strands |
|
Squeeze as hard as I can |
|
Stormin' like that beach in Normandy |
|
So just droppin' the sand |
|
The way I'm rockin' the fans |
|
Like when you take a homeless man and you promise him land |
|
Understand I rock for Dilated |
|
The longer you wait, longer you get violated |
|
If words was notes, I say it the way Miles play it |
|
I know my styles hated - you can't get nowhere near it |
|
Instead of investin' in hate, you should invest in merit |
|
Look at yourself, you monstrosity of hypocrisy |
|
Tryin' to be the king of media, you the king of mediocrity |
|
Chop your flow, disposable, like heroes of the prophecy |
|
I got the evidence that me and Rock know how to flow properly |
|
C'mon man! |
