[Intro/Chorus]
We all come united as one, revel in
The brethren, the medicine men
Lock a big piece down straight severin
Never settlin' for less like a veteran
Then react to our built format
'Til death play its part and we transform back
To the essence until then our presence is all that
We seizin 40 acres right the fuck off the map
[Verse 1]
(Now who's the first incision it's an interlocked position) Indeed!
Flexin' a lie, spittin' and switchin' on positions
Coverin' the strong safety, bubblin' in Macy's
Lacin' tracks by Niq, the antidote is complete
The bass like the chisel, crash the walls of the Jeep
Delight in personnel as they romp in the street
Intent is to bend, non-understandin' in those that peep
Automatic is static across the beat
[Verse 2: Pharoahe Monch]
With vintage fortified material antiques for lyrical
Shit I can feel the vibe inside my soul like a spiritual sermon
Never difficult to determine, examine
My verbal prognosis easily equals that of a blast from a cannon
(BLAOW!) So fuck chronic
[Verse 3]
It's the deadly demonic, I'm playin hydroponic
That make a nigga and his man react, like they supersonic
It's the lyrical program murder assault area
Shake crack, shatters down barriers
[Verse Four: Prince Poetry]
Ghetto life in the form of a SCUD missile (hittin ya area)
Heat-seakin' where are ya, infrared rays are starin ya
Down to wear out your movements in spirit and sound
True and living
[Chorus]
[Verse 5: Prince Poetry]
We still remain rough rugged still strugglin' jugglin' bombs
Shovin' in Tommy riddle times are troublin' we still bubblin'
The black magic without, magic wands, the bonds we on
Droppin mega jewels on third eyes like smart bombs
[Verse 6]
Now most kids can't figure the fudge, they can't deal with
My vertical liftoff, or poison progress
Attack future fighters laser light point dot is
Hostile radar (and move on any invader)
[Verse 7]
They're merkin', awkward shadows are clerkin'
Lurkin' from resistin' in arrest, put in my 10, I'm workin'
For the ultimate hurtin', my steel curtain
Will block your entourage, sincerely, for certain
[Verse 8]
So how you prove who you are? (Who you are?)
We got individuals, mentals mixed with visuals, subliminals
Attributed to, love and understanding for my group
Bassline tragedies over mackadocious loops
Lackin the notions, motions granted we hopin
(And just copin' to exist with lyrics that's like mist)
[Verse 9: Pharoahe Monch]
Estabalition, cinco, seperate accounts, Swiss
Five individual rolos, ex..quisite isn't it
Type riveting visiting us at the OK Corral
Pivoting on the axis of earth, we givin' birth
To all new types of angles (all new types of angles)
Stranglin' the President and burnin the star spangled
[Chorus]
We all come united as one, revel in
The brethren, the medicine men
Lock a big piece down straight severin
Never settlin' for less like a veteran
Then react to our built format
'Til death play its part and we transform back
To the essence until then our presence is all that
We seizin 40 acres right the fuck off the map
