(Intro, imitating the owl from the "Tootsie Pop" commercials) |
|
One ... two ... three... |
|
(Chomping sound) ... three!! |
|
(Canibus) |
|
Yo, in linear terms, my thirty-three degree, and a third |
|
Words will give you thirty-third degree burns |
|
First I write thirty-three lines to a verse |
|
About how I created the Earth out of thirty-three quirks |
|
Thirty-three of my peers never thought it would work |
|
For thirty-three days, I started my relentless research |
|
And I figured, if Jigga could do, '22 2's' |
|
As an mc, then I could do, thirty-three three's |
|
Suddenly it occurred, at three-thirty, on March third |
|
It came to me like God's word |
|
I started to load my thirty-three caliber Mossberg |
|
Went to the top of the Empire State, on thirty-third |
|
Thirty-three gunshots was heard |
|
Thirty-three pedestrians lay wounded or dead, on the curb |
|
Thirty-three squad cars rushed to the scene |
|
As soon as they heard some mad-man had gone berserk |
|
I demanded thirty-three million |
|
Or I was going to kill thirty-three of the women and children in the building |
|
I gave them thirty-three minutes to respond |
|
Then I proceeded to arm, a backpack nuclear bomb |
|
I set the timer for three hours, and three minutes long |
|
Told them not to try nothing funny or I'd kill them all |
|
They still never responded |
|
Until I saw thirty-three of the S.W.A.T. team jump out of three helicopters |
|
I told them for the third and final time |
|
If they crossed the line again, I'd take, thirty-three lives |
|
Three of the hostages started crying |
|
Three of them started wilding, and convinced, three more to start an uprising |
|
Three of them stood to their feet and started freestyling |
|
I didn't know what to do, so I started rhyming |
|
I tried to kick three-hundred bars |
|
But I got picked off by a sniper from thirty-three yards |
|
The bullet hit me but it got lodged, and ricocheted off |
|
Three organs three inches away from my heart |
|
My name went down in history, as the illest MC |
|
Rewind it and count it, thirty-three threes |
