1/2

[Chorus: GZA]This is hip-hop, M.C.'s get busyIt's not pop, you'll front and you'll get droppedYou're listening to slanged out goodies, and Timberlands and hoodiesWith the rhythm that came from the streets

[GZA]I was a young one at the time, but started Mic Trippin'Had rhythm like Ali, when he was rope skippingI got crazy, when I heard the break beatI used to lose it on niggaz on 4th and Main StreetThey couldn't stop the attack, once I moved forwardMany was drawn back, assault was seen awkwardOnly armed with the bow, and a mad flowPoisonous arrows on a mark, that was set to goTraveling at high speeds, towards a targetI never hit bystanders in crowded marketsDocumenters catch this most intimate footageIn the center they come close, label it the hooded

Remarkable clips, of an uncut episodeThey was given the safe, but never was left the codeClose up of those, who have paved the roadInvincible armor like that nigga we call The Toad

[Chorus 2X]

[Prodigal Sunn]Havoc on the block, shots from the ratchet, sizzle popSlugs spinning outta control, body's dropYou know the saying in the hood, fuck the copsCertified on the clock, them ducks with metal glocksIt takes place on the planet in rocksTake nothing for granted, raised by these thieves and banditsThe enchanted, sticky green keeps my eyes slantedHard times coming up in the ghetto, but the Sunn manageWatch me take advantage, get it, split it, panoramicThe notes I quote, water like the great AtlanticNever catch me frantic, swift with the anticsBitch niggaz vanish, niggaz, they run rapidSun of a Man, son of the sun, son of a gunBreaded from the slums of each one and teach oneWhat's done is done, son, the game is madeStay sharp like switchblades, continue to get paid

[Chorus][Masta Killa]You know a muthafuckin' hit when it split ya wig backYoung Gatling, strapping a .38 revolverIt's going down, wait for the sound, my soldiers rally roundNinja men, blending in, with the surrounding'Nuff gunmen, 'nuff Flatbush yardmen strapped with the vestNo pussy test the God, the grounds is well heldIllegal desert eagle, cadaver dogSearch for the body that's lost, of course, it's BKYou heard niggaz got killed for sheik coats and big ropesLegendary students that sold coke, some blocks that's still hot

From shots popped back in '88The black gate where son lay, never made the paperJust another caper pulled by a masked killer, broad day light

Crown Heights, some are Fahrenheit, heat blazingCops on the beat, stop the money flow of the streetMy dough is whole wheat, the fam gotta eat

[Chorus 2X]
