[00:01.77] Ra! Ra! Ra! Ra! Ra! Ra! Ra!
[00:10.63] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[00:13.33] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[00:15.78] K: Keep it moving,
[00:17.07] I: Stand alone
[00:18.32] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[00:20.92] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[00:23.47] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[00:26.02] K: Keep it moving,
[00:27.17] I: Stand alone
[00:28.47] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[00:30.92] Aiyyo when Rakim Allah attack, it's a wrap y'all relax
[00:33.57] The arm in that, you show me where the party's at
[00:36.03] Seminars and tracks, hors, comas, and cardiacs
[00:38.68] Broads and cats screaming "Oh my God he's back"
[00:41.13] Just imagine, I hit the lab and get it crackin'
[00:43.63] A thousand styles in one verse, rhythms will switch patterns
[00:46.43] Chicks get stabbed in the back, till they get spasms
[00:48.93] Known to spit a magnum, or split an atom
[00:51.28] Who woulda known that Jesus would come back to the ghetto
[00:53.77] On that level, and that thorough, like a black hero
[00:56.29] And pack metal, so rap rebels, will back pedal
[00:58.79] The pharaoh of five boroughs, and take over the rap world
[01:01.67] Gettin' bizarre, hardcore, this is for y'all
[01:04.18] The crib or the park, play it when you get in the car
[01:06.73] Chill at the bar, sip somethin' or split a cigar
[01:09.18] Get with your dogs, don't be alarmed, this kid is the bomb
[01:11.79] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[01:14.39] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[01:17.04] K: Keep it moving,
[01:18.24] I: Stand alone
[01:19.54] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[01:22.14] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[01:24.79] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[01:27.24] K: Keep it moving,
[01:28.44] I: Stand alone
[01:29.74] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[01:30.47] Uh, yeah yo, I used to paint this flow, on ancient scrolls
[01:34.63] And learn ta, make this dough, where gangstas roll
[01:37.08] Think like the late great Capone when the bank is closed
[01:39.84] It's cats that claim they bold, but they ain't this cold
[01:42.24] I'm from New York City even pretty chicks act up
[01:44.79] Niggas get clapped up, you stack up, they stick that up
[01:47.39] Put the strap up, you think my name was "Kid back up"
[01:49.98] Big niggas pick that up, or lift that up
[01:52.76] Raised by gangstas and gamblers, hustlers, con artists
[01:56.07] And convicts, killers and dons
[01:57.87] Drug dealers, playas and pimps, smooth talkers
[02:00.34] Stick up kids, thugs, real niggas and gods
[02:02.94] Haunted by every soul that lay dead in the turf
[02:05.34] Close by every spirit, that never made it to birth
[02:07.99] Since the Moon separated from Earth
[02:09.89] That's why they say I'm the greatest that ever orchestrated a verse
[02:13.14] It's the
[02:13.39] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[02:15.74] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[02:18.34] K: Keep it moving,
[02:19.54] I: Stand alone
[02:20.80] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[02:23.40] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[02:26.00] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[02:28.50] K: Keep it moving,
[02:29.75] I: Stand alone
[02:31.05] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[02:32.86] Ay yo, we toast to that, it's the cat that broke backs
[02:35.88] To a soul slap, a smoke a track, how dope is that
[02:38.83] Poet for rap, wrote backs that most slack,
[02:41.14] That know rap before they turned coke to crack
[02:43.64] To my dogs hearin' sirens on and firearms
[02:46.39] Outcome die in wars or behind iron bars
[02:48.94] The boulevard, tire frauds when I evolve
[02:51.44] Try and rob, my dialogue, I am God
[02:54.19] Chicks moan just to get next to my throne
[02:56.54] And sniff my cologne and get Ra alone
[02:59.14] Sex spot's at home, I'm testosterone
[03:01.65] Caress spots, stress drops, bedrock's the bone
[03:04.20] Hit the floor, it's hot for 2003
[03:06.50] Hit's galore, who rock a style as wild as me
[03:09.20] Rest assure, when I rock dance crowds and scream
[03:11.76] Bis-Mi-Allah A-Rahman A-Rahim it's the
[03:14.76] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[03:16.96] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[03:19.56] K: Keep it moving,
[03:20.76] I: Stand alone
[03:22.26] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[03:24.62] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[03:27.27] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[03:29.77] K: Keep it moving,
[03:31.02] I: Stand alone
[03:32.27] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[03:34.87] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[03:37.57] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[03:40.02] K: Keep it moving,
[03:41.27] I: Stand alone
[03:42.57] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
[03:45.06] R: Rugged and rough that's how I do it
[03:47.71] A: Allah who I praise to the fullest
[03:50.26] K: Keep it moving,
[03:51.51] I: Stand alone
[03:52.81] M: It's my crown, my world, my throne
