If somebody got beef come on down let's settle this
Cuz we can tear the wall down
Together we can run the town
So what iz up, who iz down, what's a thug, who's a clown?
Whatzitreallyallabout?  What's going on?
I dunno, I puffed too much bomb
Now my fundz are gone and my lungz are done
Wonder if I'll ever really love someone or am I far too callus now?
The way I just pull my phallus out and
Rap the cutz as I grab my nutz
Although this ain't cock-rock it ain't glamorous
It's scandalous from here to Los Angeles
I keep preachin' the message like a tele-evangelist
Who ain't out for the bread
Yo I'm all about peace but I'll take your head
Bring it straight to the shed where I reanimate the living dead
Then I make you forget what I did but the message is still in your head
This is the Catalyst
I will un-shackle you from your baggage

For my whole life I been
Hopin' chokin' barely floatin'
Tryin' to be the Catalyst so I can battle this

If somebody got beef
Come on down let's settle this
But I ain't talkin' bout evilness
Even though you actin' devilish


My whole life is a story full of misplaced pagez
I'm chasing something, sometimez...
But it never amountz to nuthin'
So I'm tryin' to be the Catalayst cuz I'm dying to get outta this
Tragic cycle, It's trifle
Like tryin' to change the world
That's the way that they changed the bible but we ain't the wack
We takin' it back
To dispelling them mythz
Like you gotta be black to rap
Man you must be handicapped to even think that you the mack
Just cuz you're packaged up in shrink-wrap
And stankin' from drinkin' Yak


For my whole life I been
Hopin' chokin' barely floatin'
Tryin' to be the Catalyst so I can battle this

If somebody got beef
Come on down let's settle this
But I ain't talkin' bout evilness
Even though you actin' devilish

For my whole life I been
Hopin' chokin' barely floatin'
Tryin' to be the Catalyst so I can battle this

If somebody got beef
Come on down let's settle this
But I ain't talkin' bout evilness...
Necessarily


Why do you alwayz think you're better than me?
It's because of that fact, that you'll never be
I just live my life tryin' to give a little back
But first I gotta start by killing the wack
I'm tired of the slutz and the cigarette buttz
And the corny-ass shitty little clubz
So I'm takin' it back to South Bronx mixed with the Jamaican Dub
I'm takin' it back to the shanty-townz
And the thousandz of buildingz burned to the ground
In the summer of '77 where Hip-Hop began
From outta the flamez of the ghetto I came to change the flow
From clothez and hoez to the dopest flowz
While the haterz try to act like they don't even know
That's my whole life!
