[Wyclef]
|
(Come on)
|
Root to the fruit
|
More bass than Bootsy Collins
|
You verses me
|
Thats like Ali verses Foreman (a-ha)
|
God's act, stand back and watch
|
Devil's time out
|
Can't be timed with no swatch watch
|
Who I am, the black Abraham
|
Zunga zunga zang, yellow man, Vietnam
|
Add an extra bar as I spar with literature
|
Taking kingdoms from tsars
|
Winning more wars than the Moors
|
|
[Forte]
|
Hey, what's the deal?
|
I seen the Devil spar with Allah
|
Mathematics was the key to set my whole race free
|
You might debate we, a refugee
|
No harm hurt me
|
Dying, thirsty from the struggle
|
To my own hustle bubble
|
On the low, woe is me
|
To show the Free Bob right
|
The righteous Asiatic thinker
|
While Satan rob light
|
Civilised like the Molly
|
Burgundy, wildy rocking
|
Seen the fifth when Ali clocked him
|
John Forte will keep you locked in
|
|
|
[Q-Tip]
|
People all around
|
You got to recognise and witness
|
The Mister who swift enough to knock you out with Mic fitness
|
Hands blistered from holding the mics tight
|
Some say it's fright night
|
Well throw the R after the F 'Cause I'm gonna take away your breath
|
The bell rings and now it's just a daily operation
|
Yo, you saw my lubrication
|
You can see this occupation (The winner)
|
Eh, you know we're from Q-Borough
|
L-Booie and Clef the trainers, Prazwell promote the throw
|
|
[Lauryn Hill]
|
We used to bite bullets with the pig-skin casing
|
Now we perfect slang like a gang of street masons (uh)
|
Scribe check make connects
|
True pyramid architects (yeah)
|
Replace the last name with the X (X)
|
The man's got a God complex
|
But take the text and change the picture
|
Watch Muhammad play the messenger like Holy Muslim scriptures
|
Take orders from only God
|
Only war when it's Jihad
|
See Ali appears in Zaire to reconnect 400 years
|
But we the people dark but equal give love to such things
|
To the man who made the fam' remember when we were kings
|
|
Blocks on fire (Block's on fire tonight)
|
Fiends getting higher (uh-huh)
|
Robbing blue collar
|
(Hey yo we rob them blue collars)
|
Killing for a dollar (Stick 'em up)
|
Youths get tired (Ali ah yeah)
|
We're dealing with them liars (Ali ah yeah)
|
(We're dealing with too many liars)
|
From Brooklyn to Zaire (uh-huh ah yeah)
|
We need a ghetto Messiah (ah yeah come on)
|
|
Send me an angel in the morning, baby
|
Send me an angel in the morning, darling
|
Send me Muhammad in the morning, baby
|
Send me an angel in the morning, darling
|
|
[Phife Dawg]
|
Once the pen hits the pad it's danger
|
To this I be no stranger
|
Step inside the ring and I'll derange you (Come on)
|
I'm hearing no comments
|
Everyone looks dispondent
|
Dejected, rejected similiar to Liston
|
Catching lists
|
Beat it, sonny
|
My man is still the greatest in this
|
To hell with Frazier yappin' about that negative shit
|
Now listen, you can try and escape if you want to
|
But ask yourself, who the hell you gonna run to
|
Like Sade Abu you got a punch that I can sleep to
|
Fugees, Tribe, Busta Rhymes forever coming through
|
|
[Prazwell]
|
We sing Amazing Grace over two dollar plate
|
One roll snake eyes like Jake The Snake
|
Many lies put up for stakes
|
Wash our sins at the Great Lakes
|
You and I cannot see eye to eye
|
So therefore we cannot relate
|
I'm here when I make myself crystal clear
|
You fled to Cape Fear when I laced you in Zaire
|
Tussle with a lasso in the Royal Rumble
|
Seperate boys from men in the concrete jungle
|
|
[Busta Rhymes]
|
I remember when Cassius Clay flipped the script
|
Taking trips to Zimbabwe
|
Africans started calling the God Ali Bumbaye (so bwoy)
|
It be the God stricken, God nutrition, lightly stricken (ha)
|
Blow that make you feel like you was poison bitten
|
Ha yo I'm 'bout to blister you and your sister
|
Predicting every ass whipping before my fights my nigga
|
This be your last warning once you walk past the doorman
|
Ali and Foreman gonna lock ass until the morning
|
Marvellous finances provided by Joseph Mobutu
|
Special guests of honour like the Archbishop Desmond Tutu
|
We watched the Rumble In The Jungle
|
To see who be the targeted uncle to be the first to fall and fumble
|
Nuff blows th |
