The mic is contacted I attract clientele |
| [00:32.16] |
My mic check is life or death breathin a sniper's breath |
| [00:35.75] |
I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps |
| [00:38.90] |
Deep like The Shinin' sparkle like a diamond |
| [00:40.72] |
Sneak a uzi on the island in my army jacket linin |

I drank Moet with Medusa give her shotguns in hell |
| [00:55.40] |
From the spliff that I lift and inhale it ain't hard to tell |
| [00:59.16] |
|
| [01:19.29] |
The buddha monk's in your trunk turn the bass up |
| [01:21.99] |
Not stories by Aesop place your loot up parties I shoot up |
| [01:25.53] |
Nas I analyze drop a jew-el inhale from the L |
| [01:28.43] |
School a fool well you feel it like braille |
| [01:30.85] |

| [01:38.13] |
Jam like a tech with correct techniques |
| [01:39.55] |
So analyze me surprise me but can't magmatize me |
| [01:43.19] |
Scannin while you're plannin ways to sabotage me |
| [01:45.32] |

| [02:30.00] |
And groovy but smoother than moves by Villanova |
| [02:32.76] |
You're still a soldier I'm like Sly Stone in Cobra |
| [02:35.58] |
Packin like a rasta in the weed spot |
| [02:37.78] |
Vocals'll squeeze glocks MC's eavesdrop |
| [02:39.42] |
Though they need not to sneak |
| [02:41.09] |
My poetry's deep I never fell |
| [02:43.12] |
Nas's raps should be locked in a cell |
| [02:45.50] |
