Featuring Royce Da 5'9"
lyrics
(Verse 1 - The Mask of God)
When D2M merged, we turned philosophical
Learned reason and morals, skill earned from droppin' school
Now I'm droppin' knowledge, that's what you hoppin' too
Hot rhymes wrote in college, a portrait of a prophet's youth
Now I got the opportune moment to dispose of all opponents
With Royce 5'9" and Sagacious at my shoulder
With the patience of a soldier and the face of someone older
I'll appertain my whole into rap's Horatio Alger
Yeah man, the Ragged Dick of this rap game
From rags to riches, mere fans to victims
This the blueprint - just plans for building
A new world order based on The Scripture
Matching the description of your worst nightmare
Laws biased against you, man, we don't fight fair
And there ain't no light here; we livin' in darkness
And if die, don't believe it, like Andy Kaufman
(Hook)
Lights out! Get down, everybody out!
Right now! It's lights out!
Lights out! Get down, everybody out!
Right now! It's lights out!
(Verse 2 - Sagacious)
I just know the world would, hate me dead
Cuz they’d miss my rhymes from my, HB lead
Be wise, cuz it’s important to think
Or life'll ruin you like red turns white to pink
It's all in your head, and in the samples of what I spoke
If we were all eggs, you’d be scrambled I’d be poached
The world couldn’t wait to see me, I was two months premature
And when I created a CD, I wasn’t the same as you were
Cuz I grind like a mortar and pestle to be successful
Fools will test you, but don’t let em’ stress you
Yea you got skills, but you ain’t nothing special
I got the looks the style, plus I’m intellectual
The hooks are wild, and the verses technical
I keep em shook for a while, but my words are perpetual
Talk about my successes, I could claim about hundred
My brain is a conundrum, that still can’t harness it’s hunger
(Verse 3 - Royce Da 5'9")
Yes, yes, nigga wait your turn
Enter impatient, ashes after they burn
We put'em in anxious urns
Let me give it to you in laymens terms
Me? I'm what you would call a man
Be nice or you get the palm of my hand
The same hand I can ball, I can swing with
And leave you with a image your boys can't distinguish
The same hand with the ring, with the thing
And the flame and they're going blang blang that I came with
The same hand, I call up the boys on my team
With the bring noise and the plan is to end this
The same hand that's digging the ditch in your lawn
Belongs to the same trigger finger that itches
The same hand painting the picture
Of the rise and the fall of all who diss this
God, it's all part of the scripture
