The Saga Begins |
Yo, the saga begins, my eyes is the photography lens |
Properly push pens, and show quality gems |
The horrors be grim, but yo maybe tomorrow we win |
If we follow the trends and keep count of the dollars we spend |
I want a mahogany Benz, I want lottery ends |
I want property, friends, plus my hobby is skins |
If I decide we in sin, then my prophesy ends |
But the God’ll begin, watchin my odyssey spin |
in the place where war be, based on a true story |
Territory was made for me to pursue glory |
Blast alone masses in zones have to be sewn |
Every capacity blown, I’m internationally known, yo So all hail the honorable, microphone phenomenal |
Persona is unbombable?, trust me son |
I continue like a saga do, bringin you the drama to allow you that the chronicle has just begun |
«The saga begins"-→ Mobb Deep |
«The soul controller, Rakim"-→ Rakim |
«Set it off… yo, the saga begins"-→ Mobb Deep |
«Still say a rhyme after the next one"-→ Rakim |
(repeat 2X except 8th line is «You know that I’m the soloist"-→ Rakim) |
Yo, my never-ending epic, got the world spinning hectic |
I quickly spread it, till the whole city’s infected |
Suspense that I supply intensify |
Then commence as my daily events go by You get involved in this, paragraphologist |
Narratin novelist, market this, sound marvelous |
I’m the star in this, which means the author’s authentic |
Most definite, every episode’s a epidemic |
So when you research, check it, here go the evidence |
They represent with lyrical negligence for presidents |
My science existed, without the fiction |
Every inscription is a special edition |
Yo, the legacy lives, let em see what the pedigree is Mega-thesis, blessin these kids with extra features |
The depth’s deep as, the deepest sea is Telepathy increases melody gets speakers, telekinesis |
Ideas appear as clear as, pictures in movie theaters |
Lyrics you hear it, devestating the way you ear it So stay tuned for sequels, part two’s and more |
So soon you and your peoples can bumrush the store |
The names have changed the game remain the same |
How one came to reign on his claim to fame |
No stoppin this I’m droppin this with hip-hop in this |
And when the topic is topicless, then I’m writing the apocalypse |
