[Intro: Sway, continued from the end of the previous track]
Just like that...
[Snupe]
Whooh! Yeah
It's the ones you know about
The famous, magnificent Hieroglyphics, mega
Always on the mic for MC's who really don't know what we doin
It's time to do it up
We got Cas, we got Del, we got Tajai, we got A-Plus
C'mon y'all, PLEASE – can we get busy??
[Verse 1: Casual]
I put my pencil to the paper and watch lighting strike
Casual, the innovator, in a state of advancement
MC scolder, breakdancin' on the lake when it freeze over
So much game, I told her I'm a disease holder
And I still hit it
Bust a nut in her eye and made her deal with it
The straight bump, y'all! Yeah, you best agree
Whatever that sess do don't let you come next to me
Mentally, I'm compatible with Macintosh
And I can get a n***a's bitch in the sack with floss
Hop on the microphone, actin' lost
Unaware, unprepared
Then I bust off the top, and n***as get scared
[Interlude 1: Snupe]
Uhh, now I told y'all I wasn't playin'!
It's Hieroglyphics in here
Now that's Cas, now you know "That's how it was, That's How It Is"
We 'bout to do it with my next man, A-Plee!
[Verse 2: A-Plus]
A to the, Plus must do ya, bust through ya
Defenses with lyrics mentally muscular
Holdin' down like cement shoes, to make you drown right
This is what we do if we the crew you sound like
I can't stand a person bitin' someone's creativity
I have so many styles that you can take one as a gift from me
It's like deja vu whenever you pop they tape in
Lyin more than Satan, fallin off like they was ice skatin'
Trying to get they mic taken
You get scolded and chastized
My holy mic, is baptized
Giving flatlines to you rap guys
And still send you back with black eyes
On the mic, you telling fat lies
[Interlude 2: Snupe]
Now if I'm the teacher
I gotta give that a A-Plus, youknowhatI'msayin?
Now let's make room for the man, the myth
The great-great-granddaddy of Hieroglyphics, Del
[Verse 3: Del the Funky Homosapien]
Hold up! Stop the presses, this just came in
Del's done it again, you gotta get his name in
He's infallible in battle flows and battle royals
Collects all the spoils of soiled celebrities
Shape my fantasies to form lyrical odysseys
Not modestly, I show my ass for all to see
Polishin' wax with facts sharp like tacks
To stop your heart like cracks
Rip, apart the tracks, ahhh...
[Interlude 3: Snupe]
Na-na-na-na-now you know that's self explanatory
Now we 'bout to get busy with my man Tajai
Break out your notebooks and your pads
Listen real closely to what this brother has to say
[Verse 4: Tajai]
I kick the, Acura-like dialect
It's sacrilege, steppin' in the sanctuary of the sacrosanct
Do not desecrate, acquiesce
Before I dessicate all your flows
And leave you dry as bones
It's awful how I decimate
But also awesome
People say that they saw something
They cherish they lives long
When I expectorate upon a song
To be honest, number one's what I expect to rank
Not for just the crown jewels or scepter
Out for justice, and exposition of the rest as jesters
With they lackluster compositions
Suckers in estrous, thinkin' that Heiroglyphics won't fuck ya?
[Interlude 4: Snupe]
Oh my goodness, I told ya
Once again, it's Hieroglyphics
We got the smooth line-up
Tajai, A-Plus, Del, Casual
They just to' it up, forget about it, leave it alone!
It's Hieroglyphics from here on out
You don't know what you're doin
And me, I'm the Extra Prolific wizzz kid
Y'all can't mess with this, leave it alone
Drop ya pen, it's time that we go on
Let us alone y'all, can't fade this!
You know how we do
