1
[GZA]
2
I was born, with the mic in my hand
3
Then I took it from Medina, to the S.I. land
4
I pulled up on the block, go out the truck, tt was the first of pit stops
5
The era of the spinnin' tops, the birth of hip hop
6
That was somethin', I had identified with
7
So I, made it my point to exploit this fly gift then
8
Myself and RZA, made trips to the B.X.
9
A mass of ferocious M.C.'s and talent T-Rex
10
Giants in every ways, rap flows for every day
11
We knew we would get a reward for the price we'll pay
12
The basic training was beyond entertainment
13
Just the caters of the verbal expressions, self explainin'
14
Were my boots out in constant walks across the borough
15
Tore the troops out the frame when they challenge the most thorough
16
From well concealed firing positions we let off the most
17
Dangerous with that, slang that just shatter the coast
18
They say I rhyme like the bank that stop
19
Cause M.C.'s be more shook then the dice that drop
20
Especially if I'm rollin', then the point is definitely proven
21
Cause with the GZA holdin', that keep a nigga movin'
22
I walk Broadway, from Quincy to Myrtle
23
Back to Quincy, cut careers whatever the expense be
24
They heard the Legend, run to the reverend
25
With headaches and blackouts, worse then severe seven
26
[Chorus: GZA]
27
And when my job is done
28
And it's time to get those that's comin' up some runs
29
So you can see where they from, from, from...
30
They say the product is good
31
We gonna sling it from the slums of the hills of the hood
32
'Til it's understood
33
[GZA]
34
We still search through the crates of songs that just breaks
35
At times we play legendary battles on tapes
36
Unlikely confrontation with a clash of swords
37
In a G that was stored, be rain that just poured
38
On cats and dogs, water that, flooded the stance
39
The violence and nature had trigged the violence of man
40
That was bloodshed, from which said, audible threats
41
Publicize regrets, wanted alive or dead
42
A hand full recovered from the dramatic plunge
43
While the rest kept babblin' and speakin' in tongues
44
Since the competition already slaked them in a scrimmage
45
He continued tarnish that, already faded image
46
Any sport, when they come short, majors don't need 'em
47
Then they broke, lose they homes, lively hood and freedom
48
The rhyme could be a blunt object that make you choke
49
Like too many tokes, that'll recharge in growth
50
This Witty Unpredictable Talent or Natural Game
51
With non added of slang, it's all actual fact
52
The high roller knock the chip off the shoulder
53
Strike like the perfect bowler, with catastrophic damage
54
My other's hard to vanish, punishment, swift to sudden
55
Unparalleled advantage, brought to a level where you froze and can't speak
56
Trapped in the frigid temperatures of that peak
57
[Chorus]
The Assassination Of Abraham Lincoln 😨
