[Chorus: x2]
|
One behind the next in line
|
It's inspection time let me check your design
|
Your pedigree don't hold up next to mine
|
I'm a thouroughbred of the most excellent kind
|
|
[Verse 1:]
|
Brother Ali and who's asking
|
The text book definition of brute passion
|
The future, the past, a true champion is born
|
never made and that's a label you can't pretend
|
I think better outside of the box
|
I rhyme better outside of the booth
|
There's no hiding the truth, I'm the genuine positive proof
|
I buck shots through the roof set the hostages loose, shoo
|
One might got to give real a minute
|
But it will recognise A alike once the beat finish
|
Bleak grimacing winters led him to seek vengeance
|
With every bit the mistique of a street menace
|
Self appointed judge with power vested
|
to hand down sentances from bus stop benches
|
He's relentless with his it's just in his spirit
|
You don't want to read about it fool you want to feel it
|
Shit happens but I'm calm in a shit storm
|
Its just normal, what you think I balled up a fist for?
|
They probably thought I was born yesterday right
|
Well mother fucker I stayed up all night
|
Hit me hard like huh
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
Oh the flow gon' cold cock you
|
You a born bitch local showboating imposter
|
I'm a known credited stone ghetto philosopher
|
I think very deeply, I aspire to be free
|
Read through these credentials of mine
|
I'm exquisite and only get better with time
|
And not yet in my prime
|
I age like wine and got a good goddamn head at the end of my spine
|
Plus I live outside of those confines
|
Meaning my expression is yet to be defined
|
Ya'll will never try putting ribbons in the sky
|
you would hit your head on that rooty-poot box you live inside
|
What you gon' do when the well runs dry
|
Human beings grown images just get old
|
So when we get old you gon' be out in the cold
|
and I'ma still keep chasing what I'm owed
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Take a breath to check the Pedigree
|
Check the Pedigree
|
To check the Pedigree...
