Chorus: repeat 4x

Step into the realm, you're bound to get caught

And from this worldly life, you'll soon depart

[Malik b]

Yo, I walk a-cross this, world that's deceptive

Beats are perfected, the ghetto's infested

With more destruction, my vocal eruption

Was speakin bout corruption with no introduction

Approach me with caution cause I spark losses

M-illitant the rap arson, marchin

Leavin niggaz stiff like I'm starchin, departin

Hollywood sambos and jokes just like martin

I'm the type of nigga that belongs in a ward

With a mic and a cord, to hold your head with a sword

Some proclaim lames, callin theyselves bold

They shall be flawed, when the claps applaud

If this a point of life, one I can't afford

Then I have to get sheist and I deal in fraud

Now back to the topic of, the rap philosopher

With more drama than a soap opera

Who stops the propoganda, the hot block commander

Puttin a halt to all the backtalk and slander

Warn every challenger, about the silencer

Muzzle in your mouth for the days that's on the calendar

Chorus

[Black thought]

I'm from the valley of the heavyheads, watch the ghetto pre-medical

Undergrads, and steady red faces of stone

Eyes are crevices, life like a double negative

Philly crimin-al, I rhyme my, dirt tariq already did

Buildin this, fifth foundation in the wilderness

Thought-less, trespass and enter thought's fortress

Limitless entrance, paid, to the order of the

Cypher slaughterer, my mic slappin you senseless

Defenseless, niggaz never movin me inches

The beat fifth, invisi-ble in the trenches

Afficiando, awesome hip-hop drug problem

Fuck stardom, and chickens up in gotham

Poltergeist, slit or choke the mic, til it scream to me

Stop that, cash we conveniently got that

I stroll through your scenery cocked back

Me and hot mack, the nine-eight, el dorado cadillac jacks

Chorus
