'Cause when I put rhymes in they minds yo
2
For all y'all folks who were hopin' and wishin'

And I can assault, tryin'a take my position

Stop wishin', and sit yourself back and listen to
5
A'yo, cause when I put rhymes in they minds yo
6
For all y'all folks who were hopin and wishin'

And I can assault, tryin'a take my position

Stop wishin', and sit your ass back

21
A'yo everybody on they jawns
22
Cartoons is hardcore porn
23
It ain't no after school paper routes and mowin' lawns
24
Kids got backpacks full of yayo and heron
25
Coming to school shootin' up the auditorium
26
Yo its anthrax maniacs on the TV
27
The least of y'all worries should be Thought's CD
28
The chairman of the board coppin' twice weekly
29
They done caught the minister with a pork b.l.t.
30
If my shit ain't hot, it probably try to drive me
31
Psyhce, its somethin' I can never let myself see
32
Can't see, I'm thorough-bread, nothin' fancy
33
The maker, no matter what the circumstance be
34
Its the principle, pillowcase full of nickel
35
Smacked like I'm ? leave him crippled
36
Keep talkin' greasey I'm a big lip you
37
A'yo your man'll can get slid with you
38
You and the squad takin to galoshes
39
I hold the engineer for hostage
40
And spit from a dirty cartridge
41
Its L for whoever try to front on Thought's shit
42
I'm sendin' them goons to your mom's apartment

55
A'yo I'm dancin', on the edge of insanity
56
And rhymin' like its the end of humanity
57
Still people from the old neighborhood can't stand to see me
58
Turn around and tell girls we like family
59
What up with all that, jokin', and collamity
60
Behind the laughter they thinkin' about jammin' me
61
But they don't know, I got somethin' for them
62
But I ain't with that negative vibe, so fuck all that
63
I've earned a lot from this game, and sacrificed more
64
Stand here a new man, but I'm still the old boy
65
They claimin' they sell but I'm still the old boss
66
Sometimes wings get clipped, we all hit the floor
67
But today though, its Black Thought, Kweli and Raw
68
You can be sure that we got our eyes on y'all
69
Watchin' different artists rise and fall
70
Mother fuckers jumpin' ship like we came to rob at y'all
71

Pump that! (Shit up)

83
Kweli, sittin' back in the cut like Reese
84
In a constant peace, call me fantastic like I cut the grease
85
Baracudas movin' and canoein sippin' amaretto
86
I'm a ruler of my temple, what I do to instrumentals
87
Instrumentals is the development of these niggas mentals
88
Tears in your eyes like this moment is sentimental
89
Your fundamentally floored, philosophically bored
90
Disturbed like the eighth floor of your hospital ward
91
You've GOT to appoint niggas to raise the bar
92
Muslims praise Allah, Christians praise the God
93
Rastas, they say Jah
94
They find a way to rhyme with the pallet like fine wine
95
And make you say ah
96
Guess who's back?
97
The game needed improvement
98
Can't fit the bullshit no more, you sound stupid
99
I'm a shark in the water with constant movement
100
Influenced by music since a truant yo
101
This is how we do it yo
102
A'yo when I say pump that, y'all say shit up
