| [00:07.03] | Intro: King Tech |
| [00:07.63] | One two, one two |
| [00:10.26] | We dedicate this one to the Hip-Hop culture, y'all |
| [00:16.52] | Brought to you by the world-famous Wake Up Show |
| [00:23.06] | Verse 1: RZA |
| [00:23.28] | Bobby Steels, Staple' tales, MC's get your lips stapled |
| [00:26.54] | Project Killa Hill is stamped on the map like the compass |
| [00:30.11] | Sacred sword-play, tongue-twist piercin' holes in you |
| [00:33.21] | You can't escape 70,000 kilowatts blast through your box |
| [00:36.35] | Walk with alarm clocks, cars drivin' slow down the block |
| [00:39.59] | One stopped, parks, pops the trunk |
| [00:41.73] | Snare pops loud as Glock shots |
| [00:43.82] | Bass like an M-80 in your face cops stop, give us citation |
| [00:47.50] | We pause for radio station identification |
| [00:49.40] | Interlude |
| [00:49.61] | Wake up, wake up, wake up! |
| [00:51.30] | Tech is on |
| [00:51.57] | Verse 2: Tech N9ne |
| [00:51.76] | When I woke up, |
| [00:52.82] | I grabbed the mic and never choked up |
| [00:54.56] | Busted a verse and all the G's in Cali loc'ed up |
| [00:56.54] | When I was summoned |
| [00:57.70] | Styles were mixed like the Drummonds |
| [00:59.29] | Killer clown is comin', |
| [01:00.39] | look around, your town is crumblin' |
| [01:01.93] | This Big Tech from the Midwest |
| [01:03.22] | Leavin' MC's listless on the Wake Up Show |
| [01:05.21] | Make up no stories about my shake-up flow |
| [01:07.65] | Put me off in a cypher |
| [01:09.04] | Partner, you can't fuck with the sniper |
| [01:10.94] | Your flow's premature, clean your dirty diaper |
| [01:13.00] | Mic heister, psycho alpha-schizo |
| [01:15.32] | Hypno, cryo gat flow, guru and ain't nobody tighter |
| [01:18.28] | Sway and Tech heard me flow and it's sealed |
| [01:20.37] | Now I got Swedish women yelling "Tech N9ne's vild!" |
| [01:22.86] | Verse 3: Eminem |
| [01:23.15] | This place is my house |
| [01:24.55] | I might as well erase my face with Wite-Out |
| [01:26.55] | ‘Cause y'all can't see me like Ma$e's eyebrows |
| [01:28.99] | Climbed out of a nice house |
| [01:30.50] | Through the front window, and heard this guy shout |
| [01:32.63] | "Hey that's my couch!" |
| [01:34.18] | Pull a 9 out during a rhyme bout |
| [01:36.00] | While I'm rippin' this shit, |
| [01:36.96] | put a clip in and spit five rounds |
| [01:38.76] | And murder you hoes worse |
| [01:40.00] | than a convertible flippin' vertical |
| [01:41.59] | Nose-first with the top off landing upside down |
| [01:44.18] | Get tied down and duct-taped—fuck rape! |
| [01:46.77] | I'd rather just hump a slut's leg with my nuts shaved |
| [01:49.46] | It's Sway and Tech, two disk jockeys |
| [01:51.56] | Breakin' so many freakin' needles |
| [01:53.09] | I wonder if they inject |
| [01:54.07] | Verse 4: Xzibit |
| [01:54.20] | Lo and behold, better than platinum and gold |
| [01:56.58] | Yes, God bless success, never forsake the soul |
| [01:59.28] | Xzibit take control—locked, |
| [02:00.82] | loaded, and ready to roll |
| [02:02.12] | Play the upper hand, |
| [02:03.26] | a man that's never gon' fold |
| [02:04.51] | ‘Cause your tape sucks, |
| [02:05.58] | find a new hobby that you can take up |
| [02:07.40] | Or listen to my niggas |
| [02:08.57] | Tech and Sway so you can wake up |
| [02:09.99] | The X-Man, catch me doin' drills in the Danger Room |
| [02:12.68] | Big game huntin' from high noon to the full moon |
| [02:15.00] | Verse 5: Pharoahe Monch |
| [02:15.01] | With synonyms, I get an adrenaline rush |
| [02:17.37] | From minimum thrusts |
| [02:18.37] | Bust multiple assaults in small interims |
| [02:20.45] | As horrid as Boris Karloff was |
| [02:22.35] | When I cut your neck, |
| [02:23.80] | leave a little piece of skin |
| [02:24.83] | So the head won't fall off |
| [02:26.14] | Hauled-off, sawed off shotgun blast |
| [02:27.88] | He asked: "Why did he have to die like cast metal?" |
| [02:30.72] | Oh, see, now like Omar Credle |
| [02:33.62] | We pone pedal at a high resolution |
| [02:35.77] | On the Wake Up Show with Sway, |
| [02:37.04] | Tech and DJ Revolution |
| [02:43.38] | Verse 6: Kool G Rap |
| [02:43.62] | I sway the TEC with the Tech and Sway |
| [02:45.46] | Step away, weapon spray, rep today |
| [02:47.05] | Who over debt to pay get swept away |
| [02:48.91] | Across the whole board, like checker play |
| [02:50.85] | When I blaze, your whole sect' arrays |
| [02:52.54] | Wake Up Show for those who slept away |
| [02:54.49] | Niggas that met the tre, hit the deck and pray |
| [02:56.72] | DJ Revolution, spinnin' like |
| [02:58.20] | lead from out the Heck and K |
| [02:59.66] | Tearin' your neck away, |
| [03:01.13] | flood up the street with blood redecorate |
| [03:02.93] | until the head of Jakes investigate |
| [03:04.70] | Interlude: Jayo Felony |
| [03:04.80] | Sway can give it to, |
| [03:05.70] | but what you gon' do with it? |
| [03:07.27] | Tech can give it to you, but what you gon' do? |
| [03:09.81] | Rev can give it to you, but what you gon' do with it? |
| [03:12.41] | I can give it to you, wha-wha-wha-what-what! |
| [03:14.84] | Verse 7: Chino XL |
| [03:15.05] | Chino make the world go 'round |
| [03:16.84] | Fuckin' up entire record companies |
| [03:18.78] | like Harrell did to Motown |
| [03:20.32] | Vominous talk, poison pen, ominous walk |
| [03:22.80] | Which flow will I destroy you with this time |
| [03:24.48] | The most commonest thought |
| [03:25.68] | The drama that's brought caught us |
| [03:26.52] | In the midst of a sibling rivalry |
| [03:28.03] | For instance, there is nothing born in |
| [03:29.21] | existence that can survive with me |
| [03:30.71] | Clone me like sheep, |
| [03:31.76] | I clean house like Tony Randall |
| [03:33.15] | My style filed sexual harassment, like Tisha Campbell |

| [03:46.27] | I'm Wake Up Show reppin' with Sway and Tech |
| [03:47.77] | My TEC's like Tekken, the industry weapon |
| [03:49.66] | I'm Chino X—bring KRS in! |
| [03:51.55] | Verse 8: KRS-One |
| [03:51.80] | De-de-de-da-de-de-de-da-di-day |
| [03:54.18] | KRS-One comin' with the Tech and Sway |
| [03:56.33] | Yo, I rock up on the littlest |
| [03:57.97] | set and up on the biggest set |
| [03:59.07] | As ill as it gets I still manage |
| [04:00.56] | to wiggle your neck with sweat |
| [04:01.92] | Never forget: the bigger the budget, the bigger the debt |
| [04:04.25] | You gotta be, willin' to rock in the middle of dry |
| [04:06.20] | And in the middle of wet |
| [04:07.10] | But I'm willin' to bet, |
