[Zev Love X-Talking]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'mma set it off, I'mma set it off soft
And smooth, and smooth, yo, yo, this shit is groovy
And it's like, I think it's about to move me, yeah, huh, yo
That's the 16th two more bars be quiet on these two more y'all

[Zev Love X]
I start it off with an answer, love smokes no cancer stick
But on a dancers dick, there's a romancer of a rhyme text
Time check timex, timeout, I'm X, for silence it's sonics
? one what one did lesser one hundred
Since duckets is under it, the cause stays funded
Time says disperse is necessary to trigger release
More verses and speeches from X this figure of speech

(You are nuthin but a) figure of speech

[Zev Love X]
Yeah..
Verse two is picked up freeze stay frozen
Reaches a stick up, while exhale blows in
Peoples get sick up said as vapor goes in
Suggested is hiccough, while I hold a rows in my fronts
Once in go, see Sub for info
Fee is the lingo, sixteen gets in though
Dance til toenails ingrown
Skeezin props, I send note for jimbo is bricko
Every wind blown
Sounds are boomin, emcees shouts "Doom is
In the house!" after one, two'in
ZL needs a nuprin
Driftin like driftwood I ask if could
Stay away from stiff hood
So does R.I.F. Productions write up songs quite clever
But light up a torch pipe R.I.F. will never
I'm no snuff head I prefer headsets
Decided nuff said for head sweats
X, this figure of speech

(You are nuthin but a) figure of speech
(You are) figure of speech
(You are X)
(You are nuthin)

[Zev Love X]
Remain in a frenzy
Stay craze as I pause in ya Benzy
Then reach in haste to taste
A sip of this throttle in a bottle
Then shake ya hip but don't slip into follow
The motto goes: sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll
I prefer: love, hugs and hip hop soul
And that's final, down to the sto'
Cause is on vinyl
So be sure to dub these sounds of a b-boy
But X ain't no also ain't no decoy
For KMD paints no
Pigeoned as I talk drink free from a ?
Image of a walking stick from a Mack Dad
Wouldn't you rather dwell among those liable
To rock well with tongues and stay tribal?
Well in 80 dekka I'm extra hard to reach
But I'll be expectin ya, says X, this figure of speech

(You are nuthin but a) figure of speech

[Zev Love X]
Have a crooked letter humpback each
Let the panter peach style screech
Then skid through the sounds of earth tones
We've grown
(The Barber Subroc and The Birthstone Kid Onyx)
Place of rest is Doom's room where we loot the tune
And add a sonic kick Boom
A dash of this then up next, last but not least
Is Zev Love X, this figure of speech..haha

[Zev Love X]
(..You are) figure of speech
(You are nuthin but a) figure of speech
(You are X..)
(You are nuthin but a X...)
(...You are X)
(..You are nuthin but a X)
(...You are X)
(..You are nuthin but a X)
(..You are nuthin)

KMD (Kausing Much Damage, or A positive Kause in a Much Damaged society) was an American hip hop trio active in the early 1990s. The group is best known for launching the career of rapper and producer Daniel Dumille, under the pseudonym Zev Love X in KMD, who later became MF DOOM.

Zev Love X and his younger brother DJ Subroc formed the core of KMD. The group’s original third member, Rodan, left before the group signed to Elektra Records; he was replaced with Onyx the Birthstone Kid.

The group was eventually disbanded when DJ Subroc died, this took a toll on Daniel as it took him 6 more years to finally make his return to music.
