What It Is |
As we move forward towards the new millennium |
We will no longer communicate with vocal inflections |
It will be necessary to communicate through telekinesis |
We will open your mind and concentrate harder |
Focus, focus, focus, focus |
Hey brother, what it is Raps like Star Wars |
Only the stars die, it’s no sequels |
B-3 cases, C3P0's |
Before Morpheus and Neo was killing 'em |
We was duckin’roulettes in the hood like Remo Williams |
Understand an underground bomb-cipritate |
Get serious or die laughing like John Ritter |
Young Eastwood, just tryin’to eat good |
Breathe easy, relax |
Mac like Fleetwood |
Keep snoring |
Keep sleeping, I’ll keep touring |
Come back, lay in the cut like Neosporin |
Came out of the fallopian blastin' |
Pharoahe hungrier than Ethiopians fastin' |
Flies all in my teeth, stomach stickin’out |
Niggas want dibs on the weed but ain’t kickin’out |
See this is not American Idol |
This is me tryin’to eat, human survival |
Spit at your favorite rapper, take his title |
Stick needles in his eyeballs 'til his signs are no longer vital |
This ain’t that |
I’m not them |
These ain’t those rhymes, I’m not him |
This is more like cocaine all night |
Shine like the new five halogen fog-lights |
No More like sunshine |
One line in your mind to remind you of when you were nine |
Before you were bustin’cherries it wasn’t necessary to grind them |
Now we all on our grizzly |
And you got the nerve to press Frisbees |
What it is |
«What it is» |
If I’m not home on the range |
Catch me at the range, practicing my aim |
Gat you in your brain, shame |
They thought I was backpacks |
Slept, didn’t know that he kept inside the knapsack |
Today’s niggas do skate-by-hits |
Run in your crib on some Queer Eye for the Straight Guy shit |
But not homosexuals they master in gunplay |
Rearrange your furniture, fix your feng shui |
They be swearin’it’s cute |
But a B up in the glovebox, cutter in the boot |
With the sex appeal, and no ice either |
To fight the bear arms, I’m not talkin’wifebeaters either |
When they see me they say «That's that nigga» |
My last name should be «That's that nigga» |
Sounds kinda nice, «Pharoahe that’s that…» |
Never catch me with them plastic cat fast niggas |
With the flow that’s so influential |
Niggas fucked up they get no instrumentals now |
Next time you spittin’on mine |
Bet your bottom dollar you be spittin’over rhymes |
What it is |
«What it is» |
