Tokyo, are ya'll ready?
Put your hands in the air if you're ready
Are ya'll ready up there?
Are ya'll ready up there?
Are ya'll ready in the middle?
Are ya'll ready up there?
Ready or not, here I come, you can't hide
Gonna find you and take it slowly
Ready or not, here I come, you can't hide
Gonna find you and make you want me
I play my enemies like a game of chess
Where I rest, Nostress
If you don't smoke sess, lest
I must confess, my destiny's manifest
In some Goretex and sweats
I make treks like I'm homeless
Rap orgies with Porgy and Bess
Capture your bounty like Elliot Ness, yes, uh
Bless you if you represent the Fu
But I'll hex you with some witch's brew if you're Doo Doo
VooDoo, I can do what you do, easy, believe me
Frontin' Joe give me hee-bee-gee-bees
So while you're imitating Al Capone, I'll be Nina Simone
And defacating on your microphone
You can't run away
From these styles I got
Oh baby, hey baby
'Cause I got a lot, oh yeah
Anywhere you go
My whole crew's gonna know
Oh baby, oh baby
You can't hide from the block, oh no
Ready or not, here I come, you can't hide
Gonna find you and take it slowly
Ready or not, here I come, you can't hide
Gonna find you and make you want me
