Hook (Rakim)
6
This is what it is, it's nothing, (ugh)
7
You thought it was a wrap, it's nothing (ghetto's across the world)
8
They got my phone tapped, it's nothing (Yo', this what they want)
9
Because the God is back, that's something (New York City)
10
This is what it is, it's nothing, (It's what they need)
11
You thought it was a wrap, it's nothing (East Coast to West coast)
12
They got my phone tapped, it's nothing (It's what it is)
13
Because the God is back, that's something (Across sea's, world-wide, baby)
14
[Verse 1:]
15
Ayo, we..
16
Stuck in a time of drought, nothing to rhyme about
17
Ghetto and crime, on the grind, pulling iron out
18
Industry crying out, major labels buying out
19
Who put the fire out? Real Hip-Hop is dying out
20
Sounds like the perfect time for Ra, set off
21
A new beginning, let me finish where Nas left off
22
I went to LA to get with Dre, we tried to bridge the gap in
23
Take night, mix it with day, I guess it wasn't meant to happen
24
I move, lotta dudes hope I lose but its cool, baby
25
I'm like Ray, I make it do what it do, baby
26
Bounce like medallions 'til it's off the chain
27
And I remain up in the lab 'til it's engulfed in flames
28
Just call me too hot, same ol' hood look like a new spot
29
A new block, like Time Square 'fore the doo-wop
30
Without the gun on my Hip I bring the new Hop
31
For Scott La Rock, Freaky Ty, L, Biggie Smalls and Tupac, I'm back
32
[Hook]
33
This is what it is, it's nothing
34
You thought it was a wrap, it's nothing
35
They got my phone tapped, it's nothing
36
Because the God is back, that's something
37
This is what it is, it's nothing,
38
You thought it was a wrap, it's nothing
39
They got my phone tapped, it's nothing
40
Because the God is back, that's something
41
[Verse 2:]
42
This is hell and hell is where the storm is, drug sellers kill for corners
43
Death is here to haunt us, the president's still in office
44
The heaven's hear the horrors, and letters fill with warriors
45
Deadly weapons fell before us, the Seventh Seal's upon us
46
Rakim won't fear, begin to fear, the end is here, you goners
47
Stiff as ricka??orders, now let 'em feel the chorus
48
When the God spit, I'm still a yards stick of real performance
49
Record deals and touring, my repp is still enormous
50
I hit the block or party and mami's be watching papi
51
A show be smashed, photographed by the paparazzi
52
My army's armed and highly, don't bring no drama by me
53
It's deadly, fill your boy with blanks, slash, kamikaze
54
The alpha and omega, no doubted innovator
55
In front of your bodega, it's the style-originator
56
You doubters and you haters, Ra 'bout to end your data
57
With Writer's Block, I'm off the top, without the pen, no paper
58
The archeologist that y'all acknowledging
59
Then I start the apocalypse then watch the God demolish it
60
I heard the news, this the dude they wanna hear from
61
Take it from square one, lace up them Air One's
62
Then bring the new commandments to the planets
63
For living life in the hood and for the music fanatics
64
It's for the time's beyond and my love for writing songs
65
When the club mic is on, I'm on my just to cipher, bomb, I'm back
66
[Hook]
67
This is what it is, it's nothing
68
You thought it was a wrap, it's nothing
69
They got my phone tapped, it's nothing
70
Because the God is back, that's something
71
This is what it is, it's nothing,
72
You thought it was a wrap, it's nothing
73
They got my phone tapped, it's nothing
74
Because the God is back, that's something
75
I'm Back..
