Long Awaited |
The long awaited, most accommodated |
Could never fade it cuz it’s always hip hop related |
Wack MC’s please or you’ll get annihilated |
The LP’s and the Peoples called the Dilated |
Long Awaited |
Freeze, this shit is outta control |
For example, an actor who never snapped out of his role |
So many try to hold me back, in the end, yo I prevail |
Watch for subliminals cuz devils in the detail |
2020, no doubt will be confusing |
Catch the story of my life on VH1 Behind The Music |
(Ladies & Gentlemen), The starting line ups at home |
We got four emcees and that’s five with DJ Romes |
B-boy mission in life is to add creativity to the battle scene |
Got Dilated to detonate mic weapons for mic check fiends |
Yo, Evidence (What's Up?) What’s that in your hand, is it a guidance |
Missile? |
(Yes it is) Call up ya man Rokka tell 'em it’s time to blow da spot up |
With metaphors, lyrically I slap MC’s up with my ten inch |
Pull rhymes right out my chest like Popeye does spinach |
Because my song must stay strong with each bomb that we deploy |
Destroy fake decoy B-boys for those who can’t avoid |
Yo if my peeps' are in the trenches then I’m where the battle is |
Rakaa Iriscience A.K.A. |
the Catalyst |
The weight of the world’s on my shoulder like I’m atlas |
Dealing with the villainous tactics of the facists |
Real heads gotta rock the Lootpack shit |
Defiant Dilated, yo I’ll shoot back quick |
Vocab like refugees but I call it vocap |
Spit it, ventilate 'em, leave 'em laying on their back |
It’s mostly snakes handing out contracts |
Trying to see where I at |
Innovations on the Dilated, Lootpack format |
We freak the physics, break emcees on contact |
Madlib don’t lack, we’ll be waiting for that payback |
You better get hittin, your soul when I drop my compound on contact |
All that played out shit will have you knocked out in the first round |
Cuz too many frauds walking around |
If you’re not making ends meet than it’s not healthy |
To be representin' like the wealthy |
If you’re not knowing that my name is Rokka |
Dilated platform representin' with the LP |
Yo, I take control grab the horse by the mane |
I’m that New York type of driver on this L.A. terrain |
Make it rain, when it pours we flood, cover your system |
Intuitive, straight up, avoided you by instinct |
You could take cover, dodge radar detection |
But try to dodge weeded out by natural selection |
It’s finally here, the moment of the long awaited |
We represent the West, Lootpack and Dilated |
So, better back up cuz DJ Romes is gonna go off and |
Bringing his Technics turntable style straight out of his coffin |
I’ll continue to pull out my menu of styles and bend you |
In half then laugh on behalf of my whole Lootpack staff |
Brothers be like «I wanna hear y’all ish», at least you’ve waited |
First heard it hear, negative criticism is mad appreciated |
My direction takes course of a fraudulent, fake endorserer |
Thinking he’s a dope rhyme style enforcerer (to the world of hip hop) |
If you don’t support, you’re amongst those who’s gonna get dissed |
And dismissed when we come back with 10 times the force of a |
Earthquake, we laugh in Cali wild so watch the earth shake |
From the first take, pop in your box, the Long Await |
We rollin' like Jugganauts, plug in spots |
Not talkin' bout runnin' Glocks preparing for incoming stocks |
Yo it’s the Pack with them Triple Optic kids |
While we keep this art real, y’all worry bout your pocket lids |
Hey yo, some are goin' Platinum, skills are still lackin' |
I meditate and coach, action like Phil Jackson |
Space invaders faded, undisputed Dilated |
Highly anticipated, Lootpack the long awaited |
