Run for cover.[00:00:20]
Here I go again, ready to flow again.[00:00:29]
Better hope my mic don't blow again.[00:00:31]
Warned by alarms when the mic gets warm.[00:00:33]
Crowdll get critical, can't keep calm.[00:00:35]
Jet for the exit, why hang around?[00:00:37]
Words that I found make the mic melt down.[00:00:40]
If you stay, better cooperate, cuz I amputate,[00:00:42]
And whoever don't break, im-a suffocate.[00:00:44]
Leave em with asthma, you better pass the[00:00:47]
Mic to the massacre master who has the[00:00:49]
Power to build and destoy at the same time,[00:00:50]
So track the wack at the right, and exact could[00:00:53]
Shine.[00:00:56]
Meant to beat overheat, but I won't stop,[00:00:56]
So evacuate the spot when the mics hot.[00:00:58]
Switch it from one hand to another,[00:01:00]
And thats a hint, my brother, run for cover.[00:01:02]
Cuz I'm armed, my brain contains a bomb,[00:01:05]
As if I escaped from vietnam.[00:01:07]
Some people label me lethal, lyrics I made then put[00:01:08]
Beats to.[00:01:11]
Format, collapse your lungs twist your tongues,[00:01:11]
You can't bump your gums off of none of the drums.[00:01:13]
Words that I madell create an iller scene,[00:01:18]
Eric b. is the fly human being on the guillotine.[00:01:20]
Hook em up to a respirator, cuz its the mista[00:01:23]
Suffocator.[00:01:25]
What I write is like shovin a mic down your[00:01:25]
Windpipe.[00:01:28]
Don't let him bite rhymes rakim write.[00:01:29]
No mic-to-mouth resuscitation is neccessary;[00:01:31]
No obituary, and nothing left to bury.[00:01:32]
As it strikes on the same mic twice and then,[00:01:36]
Cut it on, and im-a strike again.[00:01:38]
I meditate off the breaks, till the place shakes,[00:01:40]
Then I make rain, hail, snow and earthquakes.[00:01:42]
Speak the truth, tear the roof off the mother.[00:01:44]
The stage is stompin grounds -- run for cover.[00:01:46]
Evacuate the building, danger, cuz I came to[00:01:49]
Explain the[00:02:01]
Strategy thatll be tragic automatically,[00:02:02]
Havin me to cause another catastrophe.[00:02:03]
All you gotta do is give rakim the[00:02:07]
Microphone and the crowdll yell timber.[00:02:09]
Buildings collapsin, rappers gettin trapped in,[00:02:10]
Areas closed off, no one gets back in.[00:02:13]
So set up roadblocks, barricade the doors,[00:02:16]
Fade, put a detour sign on the stage.[00:02:18]
Hold my microphone as evidence, the weapon I use[00:02:20]
And been usin ever since[00:02:23]
The days in the park when, rap was an art then.[00:02:24]
Plus I was dominant, determined and dark-skinned.[00:02:27]
Makin it hard to walk the streets at night[00:02:29]
For those who talk the weak beats on the mic.[00:02:31]
Whoevers livin large better wear camouflage.[00:02:34]
Prepare to be bumrushed when I yell charge.[00:02:35]
Surround by sound of the beat-down another brother,[00:02:37]
This is stompin grounds, run for cover.[00:02:40]
Wheels or foot, better not stay put.[00:02:42]
Whole place shook till the mics unhooked.[00:02:44]
Then youve got seven minutes to vacate the[00:02:46]
Premises.[00:02:49]
Lyricsll echo soon as the break finishes.[00:02:49]
Don't act wild, single file to the door.[00:02:51]
No need for an encore, just clear the floor.[00:02:52]
Cuz my mics about to self destruct,[00:02:56]
The stagell blow up when my rhymes erupt.[00:02:57]
So make sure the place is cleared out and abandoned,[00:03:00]
Cuz minutes from now it won't be standin.[00:03:03]
Then send out and a.p.b.: all poets beware of a[00:03:04]
Brother like me.[00:03:08]
Now how many rhymes could your man manufacture?[00:03:09]
How many bitin mcs can I capture?[00:03:11]
Trap rappers who try to run off at the mouth;[00:03:13]
Take over their route, play em out like a cub[00:03:16]
Scout.[00:03:18]
So leave troopin for mcs at war,[00:03:18]
And if its a battle let the crowd keep score.[00:03:20]
Cuz me and the drummer make drama, and thats word[00:03:22]
To mother...run for cover.[00:03:25]
