The Alchemist
The Main Event
[Evidence] (Defari)
Uh-hum (Ah yeah)
(Killin n***as, what)
Dilated, we rock, c'mon
"Hurry hurry and step right up" [Erick Sermon]
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
"And I'mma tear shit up" [Rakim]
[Defari] The greatest show on earth...
[Verse 1: Evidence]
You better step up, you lookin' kinda lost
Claimin two ghetto streets that don't even cross
If you didn't know, I'm a true artiste
Who drops gems like on the run from police
Alias Evidence, intensified when live
I understand pace (what up), I understand strive
The only thing worse than lose your title, have it stolen
I treat beats like video games that I'm controllin'
My knots get blown at vinyl spots
Wise investment, create tracks that triple my stacks
Most kids got wack songs but hi-tech videos (Fresh!)
They know that ain't right, that's why the screens turn left
Flow goes backward please, Evidence here to seize
All assets, bout to bounce from BMI to ASCAP
And ask them cats if them checks ain't paid
Fuck the rain, Evidence, I spray Raid on your parade
[Chorus]
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
"And I'mma tear shit up"
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
The greatest show on earth is Evidence
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
"And I'mma tear shit up"
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
The greatest show on earth is Evidence
[Verse 2: Evidence]
Ev's solution will mold to different forms
I be a double-edged sword, I be thorns
Or I transform to horns on the cattlefield
I'm always open like Norm's, equipped wit battle skills
Two times I mold to the shape of a pentagon
Dilated times five is ill, ring the intercom
Evidence or Iristyle, got your file, run
Global detonation is my shape of drums
Under the sun nothin changes, dedicated beats
And lyric pages, Dilated Peoples, all ages
Suckas dressin flashy, thinkin then can you defeat us
Nah, take em out, wash your Nike wit Adidas
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
We got Defari in the house "No doubt" [KRS-One]
My mind is like a Nikon, focusin on shows that I've wrecked
My fast shudder speeds will freeze the moving objects
[Chorus]
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
"And I'mma tear shit up"
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
The greatest show on earth is Evidence
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
"And I'mma tear shit up"
"Hurry hurry and step right up"
"Pull up a chair" "Word up"
