All the way live, from two-one-five (3x)
kid, two-one-five, two-one-five
What? Black Thought in the house
Representin the Roots, y`all know how we do
Proceed Beatminerz remix one time for your mind
It`s on
Verse One: Black Thought
Yo, I never sweat it, it`s all copacetic
In this lyrical profession rappers I discredit
It`s fact that a fraction of the rap population
is pathetic not thorough
Here come the kid that`s got it like Al Jarreau
I restin in the wild burough where it`s
all realism never fiction
And ghettoes is forever friction
Clash for cash gettin status and crabs is froze
caught up in the mixing
The mic`s my only apparatus
And with it I got rappers paranoid
Lyrical freakazoid, leapin out the terror void
Guard your era it`s the Black Thought ain`t nothing lesser
than the MC oppressor, poetry professor
I pound this MC on my dresser got my mind on trauma
So my persona`s marijuana most melodic with the melodrama
The Ben Frank folder, the mic holder
Command it with a planet on my shoulder till the sound`s over
Keep it underground my style subterranean
Ill Philadelph Pennsylvanian
Back on the tour to entertrain again, whoops
I meant to say to entertain I`m in a planetary mode
Watch as I explode through your area code with dialect
Y`all niggaz know the time when the Thought catch wreck
Y`all niggaz know the science on the Dice Raw and Malik B
Kid I`m nice y`all searchin for a beat
It`s the master of literature that`s pure
you`re checkin for
Coming down I keep it real and hardcore
y`all know the score
Four four that`s the major, Black Thought I got
the flavor you need
And I shall proceed
Chorus:
*Beatminerz cut and scratch the chorus of Proceed*
Verse Two: Malik B
I can make you dance, I can make you shout
The scripts in the scroll turned the whole party out
Inject my lyrics in a sec with dialect
Why accept, because it`s from the highest eye and depth
Rap extrordinaire share me never ever
See through because I be true, Malik`s together
Intox your cells till your brain vein swells
Niggaz`ll claim terror when their never parellel
Once I have a hunch that there`s MC`s that front
I just crunched a whole bunch, in one big munch
I always stand firm, under any term
My actions never squirm cuz my tracks is perm
I have a tendency to defend this MC
My residency is simply in sensei
I makes it vivid, on different continents of Earth I pivot
It seems extreme and exquisite but ask it is it
My style is like a cat from a seventies flick
Talkin jive as he strut with his afro pick
Or a predator, just before he stalks his pray
When I talk this way, I do dismay
See you`re puzzled, now how I think you`re trying to juggle
My mind is like a nine M double, now there`s trouble
The Roots bring you styles and all types of creed
I sign off but I shall proceed
Chorus
