[Chorus:] First the gun draws and you know, that something's happening Then darkness falls and oh, your heart beats rapidly Be prepared because, war is coming You can't be scared now, when the streets is calling you
[Verse 1:] Good evening, My name's Mr. Bullet I respond to the index when you pull it, the trigger So make a note, take a vote Quick man, nickname's Quaker Oates 'cause Whether domestic violence or coke deals See how less has changed brain matter to oatmeal And when I kill kids they say shame on me Who the fuck told you to put they names on me? White man made me venom to eliminate Especially when I'm in the hood, I never discriminate Just get in 'em, then I renovate Flesh, bone, ain't nothing for me to penetrate And it can happen so swiftly One false move might just shift me If I'm in-lodged and your soul's not claimed I'll remind that ass when it's about to rain like
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:] Would the new method of murder be arson or firebombs? If the cost of a single bullet was more than the firearm Strange that is, when all exits are final Point blank range that is My attitude is cold and callous Killed Kings in Tennessee Presidents in Dallas And if the past be known, at last we know What happened that afternoon on the Grassy Knoll It's what made a widow of Jackie O. The government hired Lee Harvey to blast me though Fatality shot entered from the right temple Was not fired from a six-story window Can it be that it was all so simple, But yet remains so painful to rekindle I come through your city I'm hot Whether you're jiggy or not Whether your Biggie or 'Pac "When the Gun Draws"

Grab the master's plans with ease. Those seeds can't see past me.
No patch in the plan, the raps are not flash . Free at last- We never recycle the same songs from last week.
Thank God almighty , we are free at last. We went back to ash, before raps harassed me. No relax. Do not pass. Do not ask me. But you can get backstage where you can see ass free.
Elope- The Goat. Nigga vote for ya boy. I hope ya lied to the rope and the board. Smokin the dope. Relate to the gate. To the words you wrote, with the moving the scales ya say:

1st verse (pharoahe monch)
he pushed her down and called her black and ugly she asked why must you tease me, he laughed at her said your from africa your hair is peasey your skin is dark and greasy and plus you are so beneath me please trust me it wasnt easy for diamond it scarred her deeply plays like a ??offender bass?? to my self thought how much does gender play rememberin' such hatred at this tender age if i could send a mental page my thoughts would end the rage reminiscin' of the looks to her in class i gave my eyes would say
hook (erykah)

2nd verse
please be willing to fight for your will to spite writings from Will-i-am lynch mill-i-ons tried to rise like helium but died in the fields and the trenches cries from the killing is senseless eyes to the ceiling it quinches a thirst in the feeling thats endless the prize like a rain that rinses the soul and cleanses ya mind from white picketed fences heads up ya ass, splinters and face meant to they ride and ?bench us? the masters pastored disaster them fascious bastards they crafted this hazardous plan and still has us broken ??advanted?? we shoulder the struggle with the wieght of a boulder that muffles the sound of provocative ????? the pieces of puzzles incompleted, only deleted to be push to the back of ya mind like a hairline that has receded now we repeated, the process but never weeded the problem out heeded the warnings but never proceeded to solve it no forward progress, its obvious the soul is gone, i meditate and pray that these words will somehow allow you to...
3rd verse
see now diamond is priceless, timeless how she maneuvers like Heimlich in this new world it reminds me of isis she knows now that her complexion is a holy device a protection from UV rays in this negative time of crisis like a knife that butter slices easily to anger she reacts pious like a cell protectin itself from a virus twice as strong as her demeanor now she is Raekus God is what you see now when you peer inside her iris
erykah
diamond your so beautiful you can change this world if you want to girl oh ooooo cmon grow strong
[Verse 1:] Liquor-way your fears Don't run and hide Just open up Let me come inside Earth is what heaven is Once we get into it It's no need to speak Just want to do it You feelin' depressed Give it to me Your stress Give it to me Uhh Give it to me
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:] Very provocative, plus a little deeper You mind if I get a little deeper Got something to share with you I got wisdom to teach you Sexiest spot, something to reach you In the clothes you were born in Late in to night, again in the morning Say, schboo, your face, your taste, your skin, space, I'm in
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:] Seventies black zodiac poster positions Venus and Mars is the god kiss the star system Recepshirage dick is hard with the bard's rhythm Stay up the paws, lick at guitars with the god's wisdom It's starting to rain (yes) Such a beautiful pain (give it to me) Undisputable claims (give it to me) For a suitable
I now pronounce you husband and wife You may kiss the bride
Cops comin', shots fired, babies cry, I cry Wishin' I could change but this is just my life Cops comin', shots fired, babies cry, I cry Wishin' I could change but this is just my life
God, why is my wife bleedin?? Sheet covers her face, paramedics are leavin? Her eyes are closed, it's apparent she's not breathin? I'm a little confused about what it is I'm seein?
Plus, there's a naked man on my lawn Police in the livin? room with all of they guns drawn Out and the last thing I remember is Uh, last thing I remember is
I received a text page from Julio Who expressed that I left my cell phone in the studio Right underneath the disc with the Pro Tools Next to a six pack of O'Douls and some soul food
Yeah, and I was on my way home Exit the expressway to use the payphone But fuck it, 'cause my wife isn't back from her trip I sneak [Incomprehensible] into the house And she'll never expect it, except that
Cops comin', shots fired, babies cry, I cry Wishin' I could change but this is just my life Cops comin', shots fired, babies cry, I cry Wishin' I could change but this is just my life
He put the gun in my hand Told me go take my revenge Killin? him won't make it go away It's only gon? bring more pain
I tied his hands behind his back to the night stand, fast Ropes made bruises on his light skinned ass See, I can play games too Yeah, that's what I told him when he came to
Now look, see what the game and the fame do? Made a deranged mind out of someone in your same crew Fuck man, we grew up together Run DMC, tougher than leather
With the same outfits, forty deuce Takin' flicks like what, shit Why did you fuck my wife, man? You should?ve took my life, man
I switched the gun into my right hand The sweat accumulated on his forehead, I saw red, he said Now was it worth it, man? Was it everythin? you imagined? Was it perfect?
He put the gun in my hand Told me go take my revenge Killin? him won't make it go away It's only gon' bring more pain
He put the gun in my hand and told Told me to go take my revenge Killin? him won't make it go away, no It's only gon' bring more pain
Took you to be my lawfully wedded wife To have, to hold, to love and cherish but Death did us apart, what a coincidence Now, perhaps the police will be convinced
That it was an accident If I'm accurate and careful with the evidence This motherfucker trespassin? up my residence And to believe those vile set a precedence From the start I should have been obvious, I never did
Prevalent, the wicked debauchery and decadence Was carried out with such masterful excellence And this is the stick where you rip my heart It was natural to transform murder into art
And the weight of my conscience would knowingly carry 365 days to the date that we was married Thoughts of how would achieve the murder would vary We're closer than ever, together we'll be buried 'cause
Evil eyes that bide, how they go You [Incomprehensible] lied to me, what did they see? I just lost control, had to let you go I cry but slowly you try, so slowly you die
Buried alive in the grave, too exhausted to climb out Before dirt was tossed on me, come to find out Old friend of mine she sleepin? with committed the crime In the past three years, switched identities six times
And all the while I'm devoted to love and loyalty They plotted on my publishin? checks and royalties She's thinkin? it?s true love, he's scammin? her for the quop [Incomprehensible] to devise my own intuitive plot
Put the pros on him, launched the probe on him Now harm him, pen him, get him exactly where I wanted him Cornered him, now his mission is aborted You are about to be professionally extorted
Guess who you're 'bout to murder tonight? Miss pretty brown eyes while she sleeps under the moonlight Do it and bounce, the keys to the crib, you'll find under the mat In the front of the house, just do it, word out
Evil eyes that bide, how they go You [Incomprehensible] lied to me, what did they see? I just lost control, had to let you go I cry but slowly you try, so slowly you die
(Kweli talking) Yeah... Yeah! That's what I'm talkin about! Let's do it... Kanye West, c'mon turn me up and Black Thought, c'mon turn me up and Pharoahe Monch, c'mon turn me up and Talib Kweli in the house with

Slash Chi-Town, slash Philly Check the blast from Geneva, you can get slapped silly
(Hook)
(Black Thought) Okay... my sound drenches, each of the five senses And hold the shock value of electrified fences It's truth or consequences, ride wit us or against us Is you a dedicated soldier, or you a princess, dog? I'm in it to win it and not for the wealth Got a crib with a Grammy and a gat on the shelf Nan nigga competition, gotta battle myself And me and Kweli on a mission, hittin' Pharoahe for help
(Talib Kweli) From natives walkin in trail of tears to players sippin Belvedere We always comin well prepared, and all my dogs' smellin fear PLUS, even my niggaz from the Bay they say you hella-scared Truth or consequences, and all senses be well-aware Your style - under-developed there, hell if I care What hardship you claim to see, but I can tell by your stare Nigga you fool gazin, sayin ya crew blazin like sayin Miss Cleo is a true Jamaican, we makin...

[Pharoahe Monch:] Dear Mom, Alana's in her second trimester Stressed out 'Cause I'm gone, she acting all extra We're happy cause she knows it's a girl But we doubtful if we should bring another one in the world An' the pic you sent with you and the kids is da bomb; I'm keepin all my photos in my 23rd Psalm My best friend Armani lost her arm at the border Just tryin to restore a little peace and order, an' It's strange cause she reads the koran Torn between what side she needs to be on Haven't slept for days I squeeze Visine Cause no man's eyes should see what I've seen Soldiers lost their mind Robbin, pillagin Tomahawk missiles into civilian villages And they ease the pain with narcotics I'm scared but I'm tryin to remain patriotic
[Justin Timberlake:] My father Forgive us cause we know not what we doin And my brothers How we gonna tie up all these loose ends? And my mother Tryin to use ev'rything you taught me to keep it movin' And my brothers & sisters How we gonna tie up all these loose ends? [Pharoahe Monch] New message from mom, at Bringbackthetroopsdot-com:At Home they 'Nam So sad you had to miss Shavonne's prom Just some songs off the Marvin Gaye Whats going on album And her smile lit up the room She asks me If at night when she stares at the moon Is it possible at the same moment of time You're starin' as well? 'cause you two were in tune Your dad's Purple Heart now hangs over his ashes, An' Trini's alive and wake up with hot flashes They say the disease's gastric -- Have yet to explain the migraines and rashes And have you seen what the price of gas is? We can't afford the property taxes We just want you back at home Where you belong with your family You're the backbone

As we move forward towards the new millennium We will no longer communicate with vocal inflections It will be necessary to communicate through telekinesis We will open your mind and concentrate harder Focus, focus, focus, focus Hey brother, what it is
[Verse 1:] Raps like Star Wars Only the stars die, it's no sequels B-3 cases, C3P0's Before Morpheus and Neo was killing 'em We was duckin' roulettes in the hood like Remo Williams Understand an underground bomb-cipritate Get serious or die laughing like John Ritter Young Eastwood, just tryin' to eat good Breathe easy, relax Mac like Fleetwood Keep snoring Keep sleeping, I'll keep touring Come back, lay in the cut like Neosporin Came out of the fallopian blastin' Pharoahe hungrier than Ethiopians fastin' Flies all in my teeth, stomach stickin' out Niggas want dibs on the weed but ain't kickin' out See this is not American Idol This is me tryin' to eat, human survival Spit at your favorite rapper, take his title Stick needles in his eyeballs 'til his signs are no longer vital This ain't that I'm not them These ain't those rhymes, I'm not him This is more like cocaine all night Shine like the new five halogen fog-lights No More like sunshine One line in your mind to remind you of when you were nine Before you were bustin' cherries it wasn't necessary to grind them Now we all on our grizzly And you got the nerve to press Frisbees What it is
"What it is"
[Verse 2:] If I'm not home on the range Catch me at the range, practicing my aim Gat you in your brain, shame They thought I was backpacks Slept, didn't know that he kept inside the knapsack Today's niggas do skate-by-hits Run in your crib on some Queer Eye for the Straight Guy shit But not homosexuals they master in gunplay Rearrange your furniture, fix your feng shui They be swearin' it's cute But a B up in the glovebox, cutter in the boot With the sex appeal, and no ice either To fight the bear arms, I'm not talkin' wifebeaters either When they see me they say "That's that nigga" My last name should be "That's that nigga" Sounds kinda nice, "Pharoahe that's that..." Never catch me with them plastic cat fast niggas With the flow that's so influential Niggas fucked up they get no instrumentals now Next time you spittin' on mine Bet your bottom dollar you be spittin' over rhymes What it is
