Swept Away |
The rhythm just sways, and like a sorceress I slays |
foes, and ri-vals, who wanna come |
this way, they, better pay attention |
or a penchant not to mention suspension |
from the microphone, plus the tension |
Trey-eight oh’s will vacate those |
if there’s drama with my henchmen |
So lamp to my man Mussolini |
Go get your whole staff, call the calf |
cause half-and-half's couldn’t cream me The lyrics make your head knock |
Malik B and BlackThought, the dreadlock |
Mannn, transss-gressin |
you’ll catch lead I, crushin |
poundin on the drums like King Kong |
We can ring your bellll, ding-dong! |
I styles with my vocab-ulary |
The Roots the one to call your ultra adversary |
Now you’re all desert cause I’ma serv ya like a tray |
to meet your doom Malik’s the boom so you get swept away |
MC’s who slept for days, must be swept away (4X) |
Yo, hello everybody do I need introduct' |
I be the mic mercenary very un. |
clear |
to your ear the exquisite pattern that you hear |
It’s known to be Black Butta Baby |
Crazy cardiac my attack on any fat rhythm |
that I capture kid I snatch the mic from tykes |
while I proceed. |
and continue. |
to tend to business, cause this is, how I do |
I’m insane, and go against the grain like freight |
Never on no nigga dick, cause I’m just too hip |
Plus I rest where niggaz pack and never act |
other than ill, shit is real in Phy-double |
So if you want trouble let’s stomp |
My mission is to flip on comp |
You might aspire to be flyer than I, you must pay |
your dues while I bruise niggaz new for the day |
shall be swept away |
MC’s who slept for days, must be swept away (3X) |
MC’s who slept for days, must be… I’m on a mission |
…: There’s somethin goin on :… (refrain repeats) |
