Common - Making A Name For Ourselves lyrics

Your rating:

Yeah, yeah
 Me and my man Com Sense
 Rallyin troops like Joseph Stalin
 Where you at yo?

 Common:
 I'm bout to make the name Com Sense a name you fear
 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared

 Canibus:
 And I'ma make the name Canibus a name you fear
 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared

 Canibus and Common:
 That's double for niggaz who ain't mathematically aware
 (Rakim from "My Melody"(To catch another sucka duck MC out there)

 Common:
 I can tell by how you write, you the type to run in a fight
 I hold mics while you hold Sprite
 Like a broken hearted bitch
 Don't give no fuck who yo team or who you startin with
 Cameoed or charted with, I house niggaz like apartments with
 Mic mechanisms, I dissect a rhythm
 Move crowds with kinetic wisdom
 It's like a Malcolm X-orcisim, fuck the rhythm, I hit him
 I want him got not get him, auction his wack ass off, then bid him

 Canibus:
 I'm creatin the ultimate verses with perfect lines
 Puttin together them whether my rhyme one threat at a time
 So you niggaz need to stop testin me
 Cuz you know you can't "F" with me
 Steppin to me with insuperior weaponry
 Exposin yourself to the verbal radiations
 Sayin you can defeat me is nothin but speculation
 Lyrics unravel, faster than bullets travel through barrels
 Niggaz be diggin my styles like fossils and pterodactyls
 Who wanna battle?
 I'm bad to the bone marrow
 The Earth got one sun but I walk with three shadows
 With Allah, my supernatural bodyguard
 Niggaz couldn't touch me if they gave me a massage
 MCs will compete with lyrics and beats get crushed
 I'll hit you in your chest so hard, your shoulders will touch
 What!

 (scratching)
 Common, steppin to me is like going to the county being a neutron
 Common, I ain't scared of no nigga

 Common:
 I persue sound fairs, relaxed like Dru Down's hair
 Other nigga's rhymes are like gang signs, I throw down theirs
 On knots, I landed, players get played like Hamlet
 Supposedly nice, taken for granted like life
 I write twice and drop singles in record pools
 Niggaz I'm dunkin like when cops mingle
 Fuck hip hop jingles, rhymin big words and not sayin shit
 The click that you came in with accent your flavor wit
 Like moose, I go to the caves and get niggaz off all fours
 I'm the shit that's uncalled for, the shit that you fall for
 Far more advanced than a rapper who's career
 You could only take a glance, couldn't make the transition
 >From B-boy to C-note stance
 I stand in a circumference, the humbleness
 But in the Chi, bumbleless
 Was thinkin as a weakness were poetrys in motion
 Like a bitch, I'm the main feature
 Amongst hard working teachers and corrupt preachers
 I make my living off of singles like Latifah
 In between sheets like reefer with blunted senses
 You couldn't make a statement if you was from a sentence
 I'm cold with numb intentions

 (scratching)Fuck with Canibus(x4)

 Canibus:
 Yo, the Canibus is an animal with a mechanical mandible
 Comin to damage you, spittin understandable slang at you
 I be the all seeing lyrical, hammerhead sharp peripheral
 With 360 degree visual
 When the signal was given, MCs get biten with venom
 >From a poisonous algorithm liable to kill 'em
 My style will get in 'em, way up in 'em
 My face don't belong in The Source
 It belongs on the shroud of turan, for certain
 I grab mics and murder shit
 It's wickeder than Satan worshippers going to Catholic church services
 You heard of this
 The lyrical verbalist, trash herbalist
 The wrath of my cold-blooded verses is merciless
 Rap snap, get your ass cracked like bear traps
 Contaminate your air sacs like tear gas
 And I swear black, try to battle me, you won't last
 I'll turn your ass into the artist formerly known as, you gay ass fag
 I'll blow you to ashes with tactics
 Strip you naked, then make you hug a cactus, you bastard
 So phat to be a rap star, takin pictures at music seminars
 People know who you are
 Now I got mad shorties that wanna call me
 Because they saw me, up in The Source chillin on page 40
 Put this in your CD-ROM
 www dot Canibus dot com
 You can find me on the internet talkin to chicks
 That was sweatin me off the Music Makes Me High remix
 I be talkin mad trash tryin to get 'em to laugh
 See, if I click and drag long enough, I'll get the ass
 Bring it bag to the lab on Mount Prospect Ave.
 Let your chicken suck me off and send her home in a cab
 You know how we do, liquid aluminum like the T2
 Beast from the East part 2, comin to see you

 Common:
 It's time I made the name Com Sense a name y'all fear
 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared

 Canibus:
 Now that I made the name Canibus a name you fear
 You still scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared

 Common and Canibus:
 That's double for niggaz who ain't mathematically aware
 (To catch another sucka duck MC out there)

 Common:
 Since I made the name Com Sense a name y'all fear
 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared

 Canibus:
 And since I made the name Canibus a name you fear
 You stay scared, I'm still your worst nightmare squared

 Common and Canibus:
 That's double for niggaz who ain't mathematically aware
 (To catch another sucka duck MC out there
