*singing* Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh...
|
*whistle*
|
"Ghetto Music" --> KRS-One
|
(here we go...)
|
|
"Yo" --> Mobb Deep
|
"And my name is Rakim..." --> The R
|
(repeat 5X)
|
|
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
|
|
*Chorus A*
|
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
|
|
*Chorus B*
|
"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
|
|
*Chorus A*, *Chorus B*
|
|
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
|
|
*Chorus A*, *Chorus B*
|
|
*variations of Chorus B to fade*
