1
Watch it
2
Relax, pump the brakes
3
You're speeding money
4
Watch it
5
You'll smash your whole shit up
6
Lights be changing fast on these streets money, slow down
7
Watch it
8
Sleeping on the wrong cats
9
Clear like a megaphone
10
Pretty nigga heart skipped the metronome
11
Rocked the trump tower to the terror dome
12
Poor house to pleasure domes
13
Soprano, alto, tenor to baritone
14
Mos Def one of the illest that you ever known
15
Rock steady baby, you a stepping stone
16
Smash your foundation into pebbles
17
My words leave your nerves unsettled
18
You take it to the next level down
19
Looking like a circus clown
20
Cats like you can't even get a pound
21
Worldwide from the river to lakeside
22
My stage show stay live
23
Make the sound man stage dive
24
I cut fat cats to eight lives
25
With my eight ball lines
26
I'm home 'fore I'm done with all nine
27
Got you shook like a fault line
28
Come all shine and get tarnished
29
Brooklyn got your pay roll garnished
30
They form a huddle
31
Whisper like they want trouble
32
I melt the ice grills into rainwater puddles
33
Make the proud hearted leave on the humble
34
Black steel in the hour
35
Assemble my skill form my power
36
My poems crush bones into powder
37
You mumble like a coward
38
I'm Mos Def, you need to speak louder
39
Super heroes
40
Get your power, your masks and capes snatched
41
Brooklyn take what you can't take back
42
I know a lot of cats hate that
43
All I can say black
44
There's a city full of walls
45
You can post complaints at
46
All the doubters and believers
47
Adjust your receivers
48
I feel it, you can taste it through the speakers
49
The three six original sketch lyrics so visual
50
They rent my rhyme books
51
At your nearest home video
52
Tell them cats they need to sit back and observe where they at
53
Brook-nahm Vietnam
54
The heat is on
55
Put your joint on cruise
56
Try to rush you scuff your brake shoes, just cool and relax
57
Take a breath, take ten paces back
58
Stay on time like Omegas
59
Brooklyn patrol like interstates
60
Take their license and their registration papers
61
My joint's so passionate
62
Make you peal out and mash your shit
63
Get wild cold crash your whip
64
Front chassis wrecked
65
But ock you can't be too upset
66
Tow truck got my tape in the deck
67
I'm permanent like tattoos and birth marks
68
Third degree burn marks
69
Driving on tracks like Dale Earnheart
70
Stay on the low like the earth spot
71
Put a big loss on your earn chart
72
Nice since the nurse signed my birth chart
73
Seldom seen but often heard
74
While your jams is barely heard
75
Just my name is a daily word
76
From avenues to streets, terraces and park places
77
Stair wells, jail cells
78
Penthouse to basements
79
Arrangement basic
80
But still fans chase it
81
Y2K can't delete the true ancient
82
Apache war drum on the ranges
83
Skill level dangerous
84
Arrow head that killed all the cavemen
85
They cry John Blazing
86
But step on the pavement
87
And get violated like a plaintiff
88
I ain't shit to play with
89
I give a goddamn what your name is
90
Delete it and make it so it never get repeated
91
Believe it
92
Tell the feds, tell your girl, tell your mother
93
Conference call you wack
94
Crew and tell each other
95
That they just ain't holding me
96
I'm Mos Def, your hopefully
97
Mush off or you get bust off like a ovary
98
Tell them cats they need to ease back and observe where they at
99
Brook-nahm Vietnam
100
The heat is on
101
Put your joint on cruise
102
In a rush you scuff your brake shoes, just cool and relax
103
Take a breath, take ten paces back
104
Brook-nahm Vietnam
105
The heat is on, no off-ramp or detour
106
Make these gassed up jokers observe the speed law
107
Make these gassed up clowns observe the speed law
108
Make these gassed up clowns observe the speed law
109
'Cause they speedin', speedin', speedin', speedin', speedin'
110
Speedin', speedin', speedin', speedin', speedin'
111
Speedin', speedin', speedin', speedin', speedin'
112
Relax
113
Slow down, you better chill money
114
Lights be changing fast on these streets dude
115
Smash your whole shit up
116
You better cool out money
117
It ain't like that out here
118
Look at these cats man
119

120
He probably just got that car
121
About to fuck your whole shit up
122
Speed laws out here money
123
Knight riding cats
124
In control like interstates, state-ahs, state-ahs
125
State-ahs, state-ahs, state-ahs, state-ahs, state-ahs
126
State-ahs, state-ahs, state-ahs, state-ahs, state-ahs
127
Stay the
128
