Survival Tactics |
Point missed, lesson learned by way the table tops turned |
To my concern, you failed to practice, survival tactics & got burned |
In one ear & out the back of my impact year |
To boost your self-esteem & camoflauge your wack career |
Got yourself the flops & flossin but you forget |
That your one hit aint feedin them 5 babies n' shit |
Keep the fat rat rich & he’ll backflip |
Bending over wack words, like you expect, I got you facin backwards |
Right back where you started, cold, gettin retarded |
Thinkin back, bustin' for nothin but table scraps |
Fish all that, we’re on a fully loaded expedition |
For suckers actin shifty like a manual transmission |
Ammunition comes in a black cloak |
Sneak up on em, let the suckers fly once, then I snap his throat |
The infamous, Los Angeles, lyricist |
San Fernando Val, Southern Cal when they experience it |
Here it comes, some survival tactics |
We keep it movin in the place, aint no time for practice |
That’s how we do make the crowd shout is all that counts |
And all amounts, gettin love, makin heads bounce |
Survival Tactics |
Now, whether you like it or not, we still arrive |
Bright and early up in yo' face with somethin live |
Spinnin on the kerosil but fail to realize |
I’m the supreme energizer no (yeah) rhyme state |
Nothin but a circus with a flying trapeze of emcees |
Not to talk shit but man please |
Headquarters units alarm, Styles of Beyond |
Comin through military troops to bring battles call |
A roadmap to the island of survival |
Wallow at the kids that love to do what I do |
Bleach’ll make you jump & get rediculous |
Prepain for the ride, grab my popcorn & licorice |
Chill, have a seat, get a drink, maybe watch |
But if it ain’t the real, second thought maybe not |
This’ll make the time for when it’s really time to drop |
Collect the Navy Seals, scuba dive for hip hop (hip hop) |
Here it comes, some survival tactics |
We keep it movin in the place, aint no time for practice |
That’s how we do make the crowd shout is all that counts |
And all amounts, gettin love, makin heads bounce |
Survival Tactics |
What goes up must come down, gravity kills |
But tragically emcees got more egos than skills |
Watch your back whip the carseat with a closed fist |
Cause it’s survival of the fit man, even the strong get dissed |
So now we drop down, parachutes, backtrack it slow |
Through the roof, survival tactics on the loose |
Secret agent combination, junkyard, daily route |
Sell the star ranks, snatchin piggy banks that escape |
Load the armored tank with the ammo & the ratchets |
Man, you know the time (what's the time?), time for action |
What’s the reaction, keep a close caption |
Collapsin emcees, wanna be stuck on something like Michael Jackson |
Within a split second of a fraction, Ryu’s attackin |
With the first of a strapped regiment assassin |
Here it comes, some survival tactics |
We keep it movin in the place, aint no time for practice |
That’s how we do make the crowd shout is all that counts |
And all amounts, gettin love, makin heads bounce |
