Epmd.. def jam.. blazin..

It's e-dub on the microphone

My style be elektraI'm the male syl rhome

Homeswalk around with forty-four chrome

On safetyspike the mic in the endzone

This here ain't the average shityou used to

Frontand automatic roundswill shoot you

So knock it offlike biggie smalls said duke you soft

Why you wanna fuck with the boss? 



[parrish smith]

Where should I start?  breakin mc's or shatterin charts? 

It's diablopmd mic doc with the purple heart

The go-gettergetterget wit 'erhit 'er-split 'er

Front and backand if she wit itstraight in the shitter

So heidi heidi heidi hydropack gats and ammo

+funky piano+van like the fuckin ? tano? 

With more cheese than lambeaumore heat than rambo

Break down dismantle when I scramble



Chorus: erick sermon (parrish smith) *repeat 2x*



I just get downand I go for mines

Say check 12 -- and run down the line

(inclined to shine) with techs and (forty-four mags and nines)

Don't get too close because you might get shot



[erick sermon]

Uhhyoeyand yo

Epmdfuckin with us is bad news

Me and you got different views

What you might say is dopeI say's not

What I might call wackyou'll call hot

The best thing for youis to think and hope

Or get chokedand hung with +the velvet rope+

Cause you too theatricalmess around

And end up smackin youjackin youattackin you



[parrish smith]

That's why it's crucialso stay neutral to collect the cash

Double beaucoupjust rippin up micsis what my crew do

Whatever suits youpull out the burnerfuck the shoot through

Roadblocks and smear campaignswith the two-two

Or tech ninethat'll chewthrough your waistline

I'm accuratedon't waste minespit on bassline

Run with the unseen potential to be on dateline

I don't fake mineyou blaze crazywhile I pace mine



[erick sermon]

Yeahnow why y'all wanna mess with the vets? 

We've been doin this shitsince _dear yvette_check

I make shit that make you wanna smack your producer

And ice grill himand make you wanna kill him dead

And walk around leakinin the bed for the weekend

For playin with the last mohican

? madi gon? - that's fuck you in puerto rican

Keep quiet when you hear grown men speakin



[parrish smith]

Or get smackedthis ain't no gamethe shit is serious

Deleriousthat's how we leave cats and niggaz curious

The true legendgot caught shit you better call kevin

Big like dog 40 and the dutch from the 7-11

I'm danger like norris the texas ranger

The mic stranglerpmdthe fuckin _head banger_

Mo' skills fo' real for them cats that kill

Pump a nine on the reg behind penetentiary steel



Chorus
