From the heart of Medina, to the head, to the east |
[00:18.75] |
To the plaza houses, a/k/a the Mountain |
[00:22.28] |
To the rugged lands of Shaolin, yo |

From the Brazilian wax, to the uncombed bushy |
[00:53.45] |
From down state, psychiatric |
[00:55.42] |
Who tried to put a code on his brain until he cracked it |

Now the media wanna view him like they knew him |
[01:00.38] |
And his head nurse, wanna sue him 'cause she blew him |
[01:02.76] |
Ever since he walked on stage, he was just a loose cannon |

The All In Together Now started in Bed-Stuy |
[01:35.31] |
Human beatbox specialist, who dressed fly |
[01:37.84] |
A half ounce of blow and a forty ounce drinker |
[01:40.36] |
Magnificent flow, critical thinker |
[01:42.88] |
Unique is one grain of sand from the beach |
[01:45.59] |
And had ******* eating out of his hand |
[01:47.61] |
He was intelligent, his style was relevant |
[01:49.80] |
I can name ten ************s that stole an element |
[01:52.27] |
From the high speed chase to the court arraignments |
[01:54.76] |
All of the above was entertainment |
[01:57.47] |
He caused earthquakes just from experiments |
[01:59.67] |
Some thoughts got lost, not knowing where it went |
[02:02.30] |
His songs had a rep for many inducements |
[02:04.80] |
Giving birth to new styles after recruitments |
[02:07.21] |
There's no replacement or any supplement |
[02:09.71] |
He was a new testament, what he said, what he meant (We were) |
[02:12.10] |

They put him in a box, wrapped like a gift |
[02:39.12] |
In them straight jacket, watched by two, worked the shift |
[02:41.61] |
Gave him no phone calls, saw no sunlight |
[02:44.13] |
Like Billie the Kid in his last gun fight |
[02:46.81] |
Then days became weeks, weeks became months |
[02:49.25] |
Carved the calendar on the wall with his fronts |
[02:51.57] |
The food pushed in, on the trays, looking sharp in the cell |
[02:54.43] |
By hands covered with latex gloves |
[02:56.25] |
Cooks in the kitchen had laced his drinks |
[02:58.58] |
The wild ass physician, they was off the breaks |
[03:01.08] |
He got visits from shrinks who came in with ink-blots |
[03:03.83] |
Moving with they own plot, but the Dirt, he think not |
[03:06.51] |
