[00:06.340]You ready? Let's go!
[00:11.690]
[00:14.750]Yeah, for those of you that
[00:18.870]want to know what we're all about
[00:20.670]It's like this y'all (c'mon!)
[00:22.110]This is ten percent luck
[00:23.850]Twenty percent skill
[00:25.130]Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
[00:27.890]Five percent pleasure
[00:29.090]Fifty percent pain
[00:30.220]And a hundred percent reason to remember the name
[00:33.260]Mike<Mike>
[00:34.340]He doesn't need his name up in lights
[00:35.710]He just wants to be heard whether it's the beat or the mic
[00:38.700]He feels so unlike everybody else, alone
[00:41.740]In spite of the fact that some people
[00:43.860]still think that they know him
[00:44.560]But fuck em'
[00:45.540]He knows the code
[00:46.550]It's not about the salary
[00:47.650]It's all about reality and makin' some noise
[00:50.030]Makin' the story
[00:51.250]Makin' sure his clique stays up
[00:52.890]That means when he puts it down Tak's pickin' it up(Let's go!)
[00:55.630]
[00:56.220]Who the hell is he anyway?
[00:57.560]He never really talks much
[00:59.080]Never concerned with status but still leavin' them star struck
[01:01.590]Humbled through opportunities given to him despite the fact
[01:04.400]That many misjudge him because he makes a livin' from writin raps
[01:07.500]Put it together himself, now the picture connects
[01:09.880]Never askin for someone's help, to get some respect
[01:12.460]He's only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reach
[01:15.920]And now when it all unfolds, the skill of an artist
[01:18.210]
[01:18.820]This is twenty percent skill
[01:20.030]Eighty percent fear
[01:21.120]Be a hundred percent clear 'cause Ryu is ill
[01:23.920]Who would've thought that he'd be the one to set the west in flames
[01:27.090]And I heard him wreckin' with The Crystal Method,Name Of The Game
[01:29.740]Came back dropped Megadef, took 'em to church
[01:32.450]I like 'bleach, man, why you have the stupidest verse?
[01:35.340]This dude is the truth, now everybody be givin' him guest spots
[01:38.670]His stock's through the roof I heard he fuckin' with S-Dot!
[01:40.810]
[01:41.210]This is ten percent luck
[01:42.740]Twenty percent skill
[01:44.180]Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
[01:46.660]Five percent pleasure
[01:48.420]Fifty percent pain
[01:49.740]And a hundred percent reason to remember the name
[01:51.990]
[01:52.350]They call him Ryu, he’s sick
[01:53.690]And he’s spittin fire with Mike
[01:55.160]Got him out the dryer he's hot
[01:56.440]Found him in Fort Minor with Tak
[01:57.890]What a fuckin’ nihilist porcupine
[01:59.670]He's a prick, he's a cock
[02:00.750]The type women want to be with
[02:02.390]And rappers hope he get shot
[02:03.830]Eight years in the makin'
[02:05.140]Patiently waitin to blow
[02:06.590]Now the record with Shinoda's takin' over the globe
[02:09.260]He's got a partner in crime his shit is equally dope
[02:11.600]You won't believe the kind of shit that comes out of this kid's throat
[02:15.320]
[02:15.540]Tak
[02:16.540]He's not your everyday on the block
[02:17.750]He knows how to work with what he's got
[02:19.490]Makin' his way to the top
[02:20.720]He often gets a comment on his name
[02:22.340]People keep askin him was it given at birth
[02:24.750]Or does it stand for an acronym?
[02:26.370]No, he's livin' proof
[02:27.900]Got him rockin' the booth
[02:28.940]He'll get you buzzin' quicker than a shot of vodka with juice
[02:32.070]Him and his crew are known around as one of the best
[02:34.850]Dedicated to what they do and give a hundred percent
[02:37.240]
[02:37.840]Forget Mike
[02:38.470]Nobody really knows how or why he works so hard
[02:41.560]It seems like he's never got time
[02:43.210]Because he writes every note and he writes every line
[02:45.940]And I've seen him at work when that light goes on in his mind
[02:48.670]It’s like a design is written in his head every time
[02:51.450]Before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme
[02:54.350]And those motherfuckers he runs with, those kids that he signed
[02:57.710]Ridiculous, without even tryin', how do they do it?
[02:59.940]
[03:00.380]This is ten percent luck
[03:01.640]Twenty percent skill
[03:03.020]Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
[03:06.050]Five percent pleasure
[03:07.520]Fifty percent pain
[03:08.800]And a hundred percent reason to remember the name
[03:11.340]
[03:11.790]This is ten percent luck
[03:13.080]Twenty percent skill
[03:14.530]Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
[03:17.340]Five percent pleasure
[03:18.530]Fifty percent pain
[03:20.180]And a hundred percent reason to remember the name
[03:22.330]
