| And he’s one of the greatest
|
| His knowledge of a lot of shit is crazy
|
| This is legendary (well, you know, I—)
|
| Without further ado I’d like to introduce to the Combat Jack Show: R.A.
|
| The Rugged Man! |
| Yeah!
|
| I’m back, 500 shows and two babies later
|
| Another classic album, the game-changer savior
|
| For every fan who said my music saved their life, this is for you
|
| Without the love from fans, I’d be dead, you saved my life, too
|
| 'Cause I didn’t release an album, some thought that I maybe quit
|
| But I was tourin' cities, payin' bills and wipin' baby shit
|
| From the rotten core, pop imposters lock your door
|
| Knock-knock, it’s hip-hop's most shockin' provocateur
|
| Society despiser, grind of a violent viking fighter
|
| Vibin' to the violence inside ya, the suicide survivor
|
| Civilize a 85'er, mind of Malcolm and Elijah
|
| Tiger-manimal hybrid, island of Dr. Frankenheimer
|
| My umbilical cord was a bullet belt of ammunition
|
| Rap master mission, battle system, savage tactician
|
| But I been ban-barred, been scarred, lived hard
|
| Why try? |
| Die hard, but I fight on and my pipe bomb
|
| Was a icon in your iPod and your tape decks
|
| Rape trainwrecks, and I break necks, I’m a rhyme god
|
| Whether rappin' slow or rappin' fast
|
| I’m back at last with a masterclass
|
| From double time to boom-bap, I gotta switch the form
|
| Go from battle raps to club records, to politics, to porn
|
| Not the snitchin' gossipin' blog era of TMZ
|
| I’m from the olden golden era, home of EPMD
|
| We run planets, you cunt maggots smoke dust and puff xanax
|
| Pussy pink hair snitchin' mumble-mouth drug addicts
|
| You fiddlesticks checker-playin, amateur spectator
|
| I’m a Garry Kasparov grandmaster chess player (go go go go go)
|
| Need to get ahead, get a record in demand
|
| Rugged never ran, get a better plan, better dead a man
|
| Schizophrenia, mind in prison, the existentialist nihilism
|
| When I flow and go in and I’m rope on the men
|
| You see Mussolini body blow in the wind
|
| With the Damien devil, the omen of sin
|
| Is Mao Tse Tung, Ho Chi Minh, murdering holy men
|
| Rippin' the mic 'til I’m dead in the grave
|
| I’m the best in the world, I get better with age
|
| And I dedicate it to my son and my daughter
|
| Recorded this album for every supporter
|
| This for those that admire fire flows and bars
|
| This not a fashion show, clothes, money, hoes and cars
|
| When my pen touch paper, pages feel violated, shook
|
| I #metoo'd my notebook, the speech creep, the known crook
|
| I’m from the murder era when O.J. |
| was acquitted
|
| Before oversensitive triggered little bitches existed
|
| The bloody ape, lowlife, die-rugged legend never died
|
| Welcome back to R.A. |
| The Rugged Man, Part Five
|
| …but here you are, you’re this golden child, dude
|
| You got this crazy deal, y-you're crazy talented
|
| I have mental problems, man. |
| I was mentally ill in the 90s, man
|
| It was true, you know? |
| And I cleaned up my act |
