[Intro]
(10) Ten let the countdown begin
(9) I was born in the mind
(8) Take the head of a snake
(7) Behold Armageddon
(6) Ain't no love for the rich
(5) Only strong will survive
(4) 'Cause we live by the sword
(3) For the black and the blue
(2) For the Sun
(1)

(10) Ten let the countdown begin
(9) I was born in the mind
(8) Take the head of a snake
(7) Behold Armageddon
(6) Ain't no love for the rich
(5) Only strong will survive
(4) 'Cause we live by the sword
(3) For the black and the bluе
(2) For the Sun
(1) Step into millennium

To boldly go whеre no man has gone before

[Verse 1]
As I walk in the shadow of death
Sixteen men on a dead man's chest
Your host this E, Mr. H-O-T
N-I-X, you get splashed with the Tec
Nobody go 'til the God say so
You got a second or more to run for the door
Before I blow back off the map, contact
You didn't know Stat' could get down like that
Who want come test rocket launcher, yes
Mr. Meth, hold the fort, most def
Cats is dead wrong, song's too long
Get swung on, can't we all get along?
See my pinkie, see my thumb
See that kid with the pump shotgun?
Bust your gums, leave your whole shit numb
Hmm, now what's this? Smell like fish
Mr. Big Mouth, the gat be trout
You need to douche out your style no doubt
Johnny struck through the Shaolin slum
Prum-prum-prum on my Shaolin drum
Niggas don't dare step in the square
Kids ain't playing over here, playa
Only one way, and that's my way
Grim Reaper calling, Judgement Day

[Chorus]
(10) Ten let the countdown begin
(9) I was born in the mind
(8) Take the head of a snake
(7) Behold Armageddon
(6) Ain't no love for the rich
(5) Only strong will survive
(4) 'Cause we live by the sword
(3) Plus sixty degrees
(2) For the black and the blue
(1) For the Sun, step into millennium

[Verse 2]
The name of this one is Judgement Day
No more B.S., can't come out and play
Don't blame me, blame society
Type of chemistry for a live MC
Hands in the air like you just don't care
You all get a share, there's a party over here
Year 2000, keep bouncin'
T-Minus, thirty seconds and countin'
New York's finest, still wildin', Shaolin
At the full moon howlin'
Get 'til it's gone, Killa Bee kills
Only time will reveal like the words in the song
'Cause love's what I feel for my crew, bust steel
Niggas don't got to pay my bills
P.L.O. pack the slingshot flow
Plant the seed, let the garden grow
And stick that rhyme where the sun don't shine
Darts pierce your heart like a Valentine
This my Tale From the Crypt that's sick
Bloodbath, body bags and shit
UFC fighting championships
G.I. Joes with the Kung-Fu Grip
Now you don't dare step in the square
Kids ain't playing over here, playa
Only one way, and that's my way
Grim Reaper calling, Judgement Day

Come on, I said come on

[Chorus]
(10) Ten let the countdown begin
(9) I was born in the mind
(8) Take the head of a snake
(7) Behold Armageddon
(6) Ain't no love for the rich
(5) Only strong will survive
(4) 'Cause we live by the sword
(3) For the black and the blue
(2) For the Sun
(1) For the Sun, for the sun, for the sun, for the sun
For the sun, for the sun, for the sun, for the sun
For the sun, for the sun, for the sun, for the sun
Step into millennium

[Bridge]
Come on, I said come on
Come on, I said come on

[Chorus]
(10) Ten let the countdown begin
(9) I was born in the mind
(8) Take the head of a snake
(7) Behold Armageddon
(6) Ain't no love for the rich
(5) Only strong will survive
(4) 'Cause we live by the sword
(3) For the black and the blue
(2) For the Sun
(1) For the Sun, for the sun, for the sun, for the sun
For the sun, for the sun, for the sun, for the sun
For the sun, for the sun, for the sun, for the sun
Step into millennium

Method Man

Method Man (born Clifford Smith on March 2, 1971) is a Grammy-winning rapper and actor who is one of the breakout members of Staten Island’s Wu-Tang Clan. On their seminal 1993 debut album Enter the 36 Chambers, Mr. Mef made his name known with his namesake solo track among other standout appearances throughout the album. He was also the first member of the group to release a solo album when he put out Tical in 1994.

In 1996, Method Man won a Grammy with Mary J. Blige in the Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group category for their collaboration “I’ll Be There for You/You’re All I Need.” Meth has gone on to release several solo albums while continuing to contribute to Wu-Tang projects, and he also released two collaborative albums with his partner-in-rhyme Redman in 1999 (Blackout!) and 2009 (Blackout! 2).

He parlayed his success in the music business into television and film roles. He has appeared in The Wire, Belly, The Breaks, The Deuce, Luke Cage, and he’s the host of the rap battle TV show Drop the Mic. He also starred alongside Redman in their short-lived FOX sitcom Method & Red and the movie How High, which is named after their 1995 collaboration. He has also been featured in multiple Def Jam fighting video games, including Def Jam Vendetta and Def Jam Fight For NY.
