[Intro: RZA]
|
Round up, round up, round up, round up
|
Round up, round up, round up, round up...
|
|
[Chorus: The Whatnauts "Message from a Black Man" sample w/ ODB sample]
|
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop me now
|
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop me now
|

[RZA]
|
The greatest B-Boy of all time, started from small crimes
|
While others had big tops I was slingin' small dimes
|
Tryin' to make the come up, the blow used to numb up
|
A few G's a week, my clique used to sum up
|
Till my brother got locked up, my girl got knocked up
|
My closest homies each, got popped up and shot up
|
And cops flood the block, no way to eat
|
So I dropped a half a G on a rented SP
|
1200 Sampler, and a Yamaha Four-Track
|
The bass from the lab used to blow the fuckin' door back
|
While Ghost was doin' stick-ups, tryin' to make a vic' up
|
Waitin' outside for the Brinks truck to pick up
|
Nothing would work, so we're back to choppin' nicks up
|
Givin' grown ass women two vials for a dick suck
|
When I was stressed I would head to the rest
|
Then the pads on the SP-12 got pressed
|
Makin' beats for the streets, so the family could eat
|
In '93, Wu-Tang Clan dropped their first LP
|
We went platinum, *whoo-peesh*, yeah we flatten 'em
|
Pockets got fat and um, went and got Cap and 'em
|
Staten's on the map and um, Brooklyn Zu is bombin' 'em
|
All around the world, Killa Beez start swarmin' 'em
|
You can't stop us, you can't block us
|
Rock us or mock us, knock us or top us
|
Better sit back and watch us...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Inspectah Deck]
|
Can't stop me man...
|
No matter how hard, you better go hard
|
So hard, if you gonna try and stop me now
|
I be ruckus to rhythm like the blocks be wild
|
Bad enough I got the cops tryin' to lock me down
|
Can't nobody break my stride or shake my pride
|
Without a homicide, case and trial
|
It's a long time comin', long nines bustin'
|
Cradle to the grave I be on my grind hustlin'
|
Sometimes when I think about it, have my mind buggin'
|
The shit that I been through, things that I've seen
|
The chicks that I ran through, places I've been
|
I'm a victim of the very song I sing
|
That's how it is in the heart of it, most want no part of it
|
Some will soothe the pain through booze and narcotics
|
I'mma hold my head, stay true to where my heart is
|
Either you pay with your life, or you pay dues and homage
|
|
[Chorus 2X]
|
