Benefit
Word of Mouth
[Hook 1]
The truth spreads by word of mouth, let 'em know
Tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a foe
The truth spreads by word of mouth, let 'em know
Tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a foe
The truth spreads by word of mouth, let 'em know
Tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a foe
The truth spreads by word of mouth (echoes) ... yo

[Verse: Benefit]
I make the dirty beat on Tape with the warble and the flutter
And spit it for the poor kid starving in the gutter
Who never had love from his father nor his mother
So he’s probably going to grow up robbing from his brother
Never taught to respect the truth
Now he’s home by himself just a neglected youth
And he’s turning on the radio to bump it alone
And listen to the music these companies pump in his home
Now he’s sunk in the zone, absorbing every single word that sunk in his dome
His dad’s drunk and he’s gone
So how is he supposed to know what’s right from wrong
And know that these guys lie when they’re writing their song
And know that the rich use it dividing the strong?
He won’t know it, he’s just bobbing his head riding along
Just then, he hears a knock on his door
His friend’s coming to pick him up to stop at the store
Now this bigger fellow’s going to pick up some cigarillos
Pressing the gas with his velcro shell toes
In the car, he notices a track playing
And he starts paying attention to what the rap's saying
“Hey yo man this is ill, who is this?”
“it’s Benefit” “Benefit? Who’s Benefit?”
“Benefit’s the dopest in the history of music on earth
Kicking rappers out the game for abusing the turf
And you should listen again if it’s confusing at first
You’re not used to the fusion of flow with the views interspersed
So many dead emcees after he’s using his verse
He should get a side hustle and just cruise in a hearse
Music’s a drug, he’s got them abusing it worse
Than the fiend at the shop pawning her shoes and her purse
His style’s explosive like a missile dropped bomb

[Hook 2]
The truth spreads by word of mouth... (4x)
Benefit's back, tell 'em all, let 'em know
Tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a foe
Benefit's back, you can tell by the flow
Tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a foe

[Outro]
The spectacular rap vernacular's back!
