[Chorus] 
Rhyme for rhyme and line for line 
The lyrics from the mind that's prime, arrive on time 
and rip into you fine as wine, sublime the kind 
of spitters who would shine divine 
with rhymes and life, is what you make it 
Rhyme for rhyme and line for line 
The lyrics from the mind that's prime, arrive on time 
They rip into ya night to night, recite the type, of written 
Come inside the light, tonight's the night, we give it to ya 

Comin' back to stay, when I rap this way 
Blowin' minds wit' these lyrics out my fact-oray 
That are practic-ally, on some maste-ray 
Show you all how a funky record has to be 
Not to toot my horn, I'm from Californ 
It's the +cheese+, not the kind that's grown from cows in barns 
But the kind that meets your needs in like a thousand forms 
As we dance to the ever flowin' masquerade 
Homey, pass the J, homies pass away 
Over pride when another nigga blast a K 
Evil thought hearts chilly, Dickie Dastard-lay 
All his people mourned deeply as the pastor prayed 
Come though from out of town, you wouldn't last a day 
All they know is long money and assassination 
Get it now, not tomorrow, don't procrastinate 
This is my grind, verbal slangin', I'm a master fate 
In a drastic way, this is class so pay 
Close attention, write all night 'til I gasp and faint 
Get my people out this struggle of that Section 8 
If you want it, hey we got it, you don't have to wait because... 

[Chorus] 

Golden voice wit' style, spirit poised for power 
Definition of a goddess, I'm a poster child 
As I boast about, here's a dose fo' trail 
Evil spirits don't concern me, tell the ghost be out! 
Shine my light to dim, all the spite within 
Competition, 'cause at times, I know we frighten them 
All we really wanna do is give some sight to them 
All my people, New York City to the coast of Cal 
I'm the toast of towns, I'm the cat's meow 
Movin' faster than your mind, come and catch me now 
Niggaz see me on stage and wanna ask me out 
I'm the true original never a hand-me-down 
When I flash no doubt, know that ass is out 
Nefertiti, Mama Zulu, try and pass the Nile 
Take your breath away it's like you're catchin' asthma now 
In this verbal marathon, you couldn't last a mile because... 

[Chorus] 

Lyrics Born to rap, I put it all on that 
Twelve years deep, my foot ain't comin' off the gas 
We walk the chosen path, close the culture gap 
O.G. like the Figure-Four the Boston Crab 
All across the map, beyond the almanac 
You see the backstage posted lookin' so relaxed 
Lady wit' me, open toe, lil' shoulder bag 
Hat tipped just a bit, ooh she cold like that 
Where my ballers at? If you can call it that 
Potna' both you and me know that shit is boulderdash 
We see right through yo phony ass like youse a holograph 
We so real, when they see us, it's like they pause and gasp 
Cat's lookin' like they see a flyin' saucer pass 
Cross they arms, turn they heads like they was Ultraman 
We gotcha whole clique surrounded in a cul-de-sac 
So baby get ta jump-ropin' over a broken glass because... 

[Chorus]
