[rakim] Before the dough camemy whole aimwas blow like propane Control the whole domainand then show no shame Make rappers go ? and they so lameplayin with no game Put em on the lil plane til they can't claim no fame I gotthe rangebetterstay in the slow lane I make the flow change from hurricanes to a slow rain Your thoughts are so planeI rearrange your whole frame Until my whole name grow out your brain like rogaine Letter by letterI put words together Once mergedapart neverthey be heard forever And then I grab a pen and stab him in his abdomen And smash him inthrow his mic like a javelin Then I explain versesthat remain on the surface At times it get deepbut I never defeat the purpose Never go outto go the dough routeforever hold out I never sold outfor any amountno doubt Chorus: rakim (repeat 2x) That's how I get downso tell me how you like that I hit the townhold it down on a tight track I start a party now - everybody like rap Haters are mad cause they gave the r the mic back [rakim] I like to hang where e'rythang seem to happen at (y'know? ) It's ra's habitatI'm like that czar arafat And yes I have a gatsnap like a israeli A terrorist I never miss blowin up kids daily I step to writersand let my virus hurt the closest I'm sick as hepatitis and worse than tuberculosis Pull out a penlike a grenadeand drop it quick I strike again and i'ma get paidexotic shit You know the God ra behot as the mojave Swing like king usabimy posse be kamikaze On the corners like I'm homeless and idon't know where home is The bonusis where the next open microphone is Me and my teamvision like a radar screen Intervene and yocut the mic offcause ra fiend To show the whole world some of the things I seen Then blow it uplike edi aminyaknahmean? Chorus [rakim] I do a thang thangI write the songs they sing Make sure that they swingfrom new york to beijing Put your thoughts in the sling and your brain is gangrene Pull in the ringrepeatin and sayin the same thing Xeroxzerono matchyou ditto Copy machinecouldn't reprint my ? ? My new stylethat I produce now's beyond two-thou' I knew howsince a juvenileto make a ka-pow When the night's fallinI can hear the mic callin I like ballinI cut back like mic jordan This is for y'all while I'm spittin literatures Lyrics'll ball like allen iverson dribble the ball They hopeless - whoever approaches my high explosives My vision sadiciousand freestyle's ferocious I wrote thiswords flew over my head like a locust I turned the beat upsat backand stayed focused Chorus
