[Intro]
Yeah, hmm
Alright now
Yeah
After the ultimate world blast that ended all things
This is how we rebuilt shit from the underground up

[Verse 1]
Bounce nigga bounce bounce bounce nigga bounce bounce
When I come through, hit y'all with the one, two
Break y'all niggas that y'all niggas won't even know what to do
Break fool, make all y'all people wanna come to
Feel the force of my shit kickin' like it was Kung Fu
Blast through, don't these corny niggas harass you
Set a tone in the streets where even the fans blast you
Ask you niggas, do y'all really want the brand new?
Corny niggas just finish your time and over, passed due
Hee, ha, what ho, think it's way passed your curfew
Hit you with some shit that make doctors come have to nurse you, you, you, you
I'm rollin' with my whole crew
Bounce through you niggas whenever we surround you
Flipmode roll thick, and you know we don't wait
Hit you with some more hits that make y'all wanna go shit, shit, shit
Yo, make y'all niggas jump back
Hit that, hurry and pass the rest of the weed black

[Chorus]
Rep my crew yo, Flipmode hit you off
Yo, y'all know what to do okay, tear the roof off
Off, off, off, tear the roof off, yo
Y'all know what do I'm sayin', tear the roof off
Rep my crew yo, Flipmode hit you off
Yo, y'all know what to do okay, tear the roof off
Off, off, off, tear the roof off, yo
Y'all know what do I'm sayin', tear the roof off

[Verse 2]
One more time I hit y'all with a crime
While I be in my rhyme I hear that a drop of a dime
Wildin' all in my Tim boots
Now we stackin' mad loot
Everybody holdin' and 21 gun, salute
Anyway any how, I'ma give it to you now
You ain't wildin' my nigga, that is something I won't allow
One two three four, I be knockin' at your door
Hit y'all niggas with an effect that y'all never felt before
Or leave you with somemore freaky dicky metaphor
Rep for all my niggas who stay reppin' the hardcore
Slug it out, bugging out, all off my niggas thug it out
Tired of all these weak niggas now I'ma rub you out
Yo, what you talkin' 'bout, make y'all niggas scream and shout
Yo, we bout to blast you out the spot my nigga no doubt, doubt, doubt, doubt
Yo, you know we always stay on
Keep wildin' before you know it the entire day is gone
Left, right, left, yo, no need to hold your breath
Yo, better chill your body up while we beat you to death, death, death, death, death
Blast you right through your chest
Yo, you know we runnin' shit and we never settle for less, yo

[Chorus]
Rep my crew yo, Flipmode hit you off
Yo, y'all know what to do okay, tear the roof off
Off, off, off, tear the roof off, yo
Y'all know what do I'm sayin', tear the roof off
Rep my crew yo, Flipmode hit you off
Yo, y'all know what to do okay, tear the roof off
Off, off, off, tear the roof off, yo
Y'all know what do I'm sayin', tear the roof off
Rep my crew yo, Flipmode hit you off
Yo, y'all know what to do okay, tear the roof off
Off, off, off, tear the roof off, yo
Y'all know what do I'm sayin', tear the roof off
Rep my crew yo, Flipmode hit you off
Yo, y'all know what to do okay, tear the roof off
Off, off, off, tear the roof off, yo
Y'all know what do I'm sayin', tear the roof off

[Outro]
Yeah, motherfuckers
Flipmode Squad eternally imperial, powerful, universal
Flipmode Squad, from the underground up motherfuckers
Always remember that
From the underground up
We gonna rebuild this whole shit

Busta Rhymes is a Grammy-nominated rapper, producer, and actor. Born Trevor George Smith, Jr. on May 20, 1972 in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, New York City, he would later move to Uniondale, Long Island but attended high school in Brooklyn with the likes of JAY-Z, The Notorious B.I.G., and Special Ed. Prior to his graduation from Uniondale High School in 1990, Busta joined Dinco D, Charlie Brown, and Cut Monitor Milo to from Leaders of the New School. The group opened for Public Enemy and their frontman Chuck D gave Chill-O-Ski the name Busta Rhymes after NFL wide receiver George “Buster” Rhymes.

Leaders of the New School released two albums, A Future Without a Past… (1991) and T.I.M.E. (The Inner Mind’s Eye) (1993), before splitting after an intense interview with Yo! MTV Raps. 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.
