Yo I'm in the eye of the storm, where the pressure's on

Ever since I was a pup I was designed to errupt
35
You get to know me, you poke me slowly, when caught puzzin
36
Some niggas thought they was, when of course they wasn't
37
Punked em wit a dozen of pellets all in they skelet
38
Transform, from the norm, start to brainstorm
39
Yeah Malik B from The Roots, he ain't gone
40
I took the wrong exit, the sign said Langhorne
41
I'm trapped up in about five worlds wit live pearls
42
Shouts to Armour Akquan who's name is Jalil
43
The moat is deep water so let your hand expand it
44
Demandin, takin you back like Knotts Landing

Pivot on this concrete earth until I rot

Didn't figure how to conquer it yet but still I plot, once again

Chorus

[Dice Raw]
51
Beans passed the mack and we held em, like hostages

Rappers see me, hide they face like ostriches
53
Dice'll grind your brain into little sausages
54
Underwater rap, you know who the bosses is

North Philly baby, that's where that Raw shit is
56
You'll get blown out the sky once you get talkative
57
A-D devise rise, I fathered it
58
So when you see me on the street, don't bother kid
59
Just be on your merry way, or you might get slit
60
Ask around, wonderin what Dice Raw did
61
Lay you on floors like ya gettin carpeted
62
You need a special kind of mic for retarded kids
63
Me against you's like Kane verse the Partridges
64
You wanna battle, change your name to The Forfeiters

Cuz that's what you do, face to face wit raw niggas
66
I give you a bad case of the fucked-up jitters, once again
67
