| Intro:guru | |
| Word is bond, these cats been on the mic fantasizing a lot | |
| So called mc's, wannabe rappers and all that, whatever | |
| You get your knot rocked kid, yo | |
| Chorus: guru | |
| You thought you brought your best lines, but they couldn't touch mine | |
| I rocked you in your knot hope you have better luck next time | |
| (repeat 2x) | |
| Verse one: guru | |
| So just perhaps, you wanna challenge my style of rap | |
| Talkin bout you bust caps, we know that's just a pile of crap | |
| The underground is where i dwell at | |
| It's where i find my heaven, and where you find your hell at | |
| You're in my clutches now, you get slit up and lit up | |
| Just like some dutches now, see i'm hard to define | |
| My mind travels far, from ghettoes to galaxies | |
| Representin gangstarr -- the street life | |
| The reason why my mic ignites, i bring more ruckus | |
| Than a nightclub fight, or bar brawl | |
| I'm swingin lyrics like broken glass palm to skull y'all | |
| Hold your head, cause all that weak shit is dead | |
| See the times are changin, and me and my peeps is gettin crazy fed | |
| So remember when you writing your rhymes | |
| Stop fantasizing, and bring some real shit next time | |
| Yeah, bring some real shit, yo | |
| Chorus | |
| Verse two: guru | |
| Yo, i do what i have to do to master you and capture you | |
| Until you recognize, what my rapture can do | |
| You thought i wouldn't step up, to keep my rep up | |
| I ain't them other kids, i don't need to play no catchup | |
| I got too much pride for this, i know some niggaz | |
| That'll ride for this, with me it's do or die for this | |
| Street knowledge, intellect and spirituality | |
| My survival package, as i deal with reality | |
| I'm like fishburne in hoodlum when i come to do em | |
| Chew em up, spit em out, the most respected no doubt | |
| You seen me in action so act you been knowin | |
| The g-u-r-u, of the gang, i've been flowing | |
| Just like the river niger all the way to the hudson | |
| Had so many lyrics stashed, and i couldn't wait to bust some | |
| Lately, i've watched this game evolve and elevate | |
| So now i push my music like drug dealers push weight | |
| Straight like that, straight out the gate | |
| Cause it's never too late, to set this ****in record straight | |
| But it is too late, for you and your crew son | |
| You had the audacity to come against me, the gifted one? | |
| And primo with the tracks, to inspire my next line | |
| You've got no wins here, so better luck next time | |
| Chorus (cut short in 2nd repeat at "i rocked you in your knot...") | |
| Yeah yeah | |
| Better luck next time | |
| ("not this time but next time" -- ll cool j) |
