[Intro: Busta Rhymes]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
This shit feel like we flowing down the Milky Way, nigga!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1: Busta Rhymes]
And smash the beat one time
See a résumé like this, the shit be hard to find
I do have a tendency to do what's great and leave
A legacy that's hard to duplicate, see
Lyrically, I'm undefeatable, respect the logo
Stupid if you think you can test me, that's a no-no
Effective with the hits, especially when I went solo
And aggressive with thе spit, I think you niggas know the caper, na-na
Let's takе this shit back to the real side
The shit that you could really feel, right?
See, I do this for the people, all my ladies and gents
Had 'em breaking down a barricade and jumping the fence
Leader of the newest shit, that let 'em see who the best
Hard to define, and so let it manifest in the flesh
Every time I touch a microphone, you know I'ma bless
Niggas with the shit that you feel in your gut and your chest
Now I'm bouncin' out the building, leave the shit in a mess
I'm finished fuckin' up the spot, so now it's back to the rest (Rest)

[Chorus: Busta Rhymes]
See how we kill 'em with the slow flow
And we got the game in a chokehold
And where I'm going, you won't go
I'm leaving the game, they begging a nigga, "Don't go"
See how we hit these niggas this time
La-la, mm, da-da-da, mm, da-da-da

[Verse 2: Q-Tip]
Try to explain to you, Bus', this shit is circumstantial
I am your friend as sure as you have plaques up on your mantle
So never doubt your man, come on with the extended hand
The only thing I ask of you is just to understand
We are day ones, your fam
So keep the cool, king, and worry not
I'm with you, nigga, let's get chicken rocks
We'll split the chicken in the kitchen like the coco rocks
I figure that I, my fellow Jedi
Have a moment of clarity, with courtesy, I spit candidly
I am your brother, my brother, so don't move angrily
Let the music grab you, why don't you take it back to
The times that Busta Rhymes used to engage in battle?
Niggas used to shake like dice
Catch an L and pick a fight
The cypher used to get the destroyed
The opponent was rendered void
The cheering section was employed
So girls and boys say, "He's nice!"
I know, my nigga, I'm just stompin' 'round in memory hall
Let's channel all that good energy into now, that's all
The Rollie hands are moving rapidly around the stones
The Abstract and the Dragon in the Game of Thrones
The seven kingdoms are connected by the microphones
We got the glow, bro, ain't no time for beef, bro
If your time came before mine, I'd be like, "Don't go"
If your time came before mine, I'd be like, "Don't go"

[Chorus: Busta Rhymes]
See how we kill 'em with the slow flow
And we got the game in a chokehold
And where I'm going, you won't go
I'm leaving the game, they begging a nigga, "Don't go"
See how we hit these niggas this time
La-la, mm, da-da-da, mm, da-da-da
And where I'm going, you won't go
I'm leaving the game, they begging a nigga, "Don't go"
See how we hit these niggas this time
La-la, mm, da-da-da, mm, da-da-da

[Outro: Chris Rock]
Hehehehehahaha
And if you are just joining us, welcome to the moment of truth
Extinction Level Event 2
Do you understand what I'm talking about?
It's the end of the world!
Take notes from a real emcee
It's about how the record feel
The nigga's like Bartles & Jaymes
Like McDonalds, like Popeyes, like KFC
You been knowing this motherfucker for a long-ass time
Yes, there's niggas out there that— that can say they've done a little this, a little that
But do any of those niggas wanna follow Busta Rhymes?
Hell motherfucking no! (No!)

Busta’s popularity began to rise with his appearances on A Tribe Called Quest’s “Scenario” in 1991 and its remix in 1992, as well as the remix to Craig Mack’s “Flava in Ya Ear” in 1994.

This led to Busta releasing his platinum debut album The Coming in 1996, featuring the platinum single “Woo Hah!! Got You All in Check.” Busta’s subsequent four albums all went platinum, while It Ain’t Safe No More… and The Big Bang achieved gold status. He also released several international hits, including “Dangerous,” “What’s It Gonna Be?” with Janet Jackson, and “I Know What You Want” with Mariah Carey, as well as being featured on the #1 hits “Don’t Cha” with the Pussycat Dolls and “Look At Me Now” with Chris Brown and Lil Wayne.
