Lyrics

[00:02.89] Choose the sword, and you will join me
[00:07.99] Choose the ball, and you join your mother... in death
[00:14.41] You don't understand my words, but you must choose
[00:20.21] {*baby gurgling*}
[00:28.32] So... come boy, choose life or death
[00:32.65]
[00:56.76] The only man a ho wait for
[00:59.03] Is the sky-blue Bally kid, in '83 rocked Tale Lords
[01:02.40] My Memorex performed tape decks, my own Fostex
[01:05.17] Watch out for Haiti bitches, I heard they throw hex
[01:07.70] Yo, Wu whole platoon is filled with raccoons
[01:09.92] Corner-sitting wine niggas sipping Apple Boone
[01:12.38] This ain't no white cartoon
[01:13.32] Cause I be ducking crazy spades
[01:15.02] The kid hold white shit like blacks rock ashy legs
[01:18.13] Why is the sky blue? Why is water wet?
[01:20.69] Why did Judas rat to Romans while Jesus slept?
[01:23.30] Stand up, you're out of luck like two dogs stuck
[01:26.02] Ironman be sipping rum, out of Stanley Cups, unflammable
[01:29.26] Noriega, aiming nozzles stay windy in Chicago
[01:32.44] Spine-tingle, mind boggles
[01:33.88] Kangols in rainbow colors, promoters try to hold dough
[01:36.67] Give me mine before Po wrap you up in so-and-so
[01:39.29] I ran the Dark Ages, Constantine the Great, Henry the 8th
[01:42.42] Built with Genghis Khan, the red suede Wally Don
[01:45.19]
[01:45.56] I judge wisely as if nothing ever surprise me
[01:48.27] Lounging between two pillars of ivory
[01:50.81] I'm lively, my dome piece is like building stones in Greece
[01:54.28] Our poems are deep, from ancient tomes I speak
[01:56.32] I'm overwhelmed as my mind roams the realm
[01:58.98] My eye's the visions, memory is the film
[02:01.12] Others act sub-tile, but they fragile above cloud
[02:04.89] They act wild and couldn't budge a crowd
[02:07.05] No matter how loud they get, though they growl and spit
[02:10.35] Clutch they fists and throw up signs like a Crip
[02:12.44] And throw all types of fit
[02:14.50] I leave them split like ass cheeks and ragged pussy lips
[02:17.79]
[02:18.05] Aiyo, camouflage chameleon, ninjas scaling your building
[02:20.14] No time to grab the gun, they already got your wife and children
[02:22.78] A hit was sent from the President to raid your residence
[02:25.37] Because you had secret evidence and documents
[02:27.90] On how they raped the continents and lynched the prominent
[02:30.72] Dominant Islamic, Asiatic black Hebrew
[02:33.54] The year 2002 the battle's filled with the Wu
[02:35.95] Six million devils just died from the Bubonic Flu
[02:38.53] Or the Ebola virus, under the reign of King Cyrus
[02:41.35] You can see the weakness of a man right through his iris
[02:44.17] Unloyal snakes get thrown in boiling lakes of hot oil
[02:46.94] Up boils your skin, chickenheads getting slim like Olive Oyl
[02:50.94] Only plant the seed deep inside fertile soil
[02:53.55] Fortified with essential vitamin and minerals
[02:56.19] Use the sky for a blanket, stuffing clouds inside my pillow
[02:58.83] Rolling with the Lamb, Twelve Tribes a 144, 000 chosen
[03:02.62] Protons Electrons Always Cause Explosions
[03:05.18]
[03:06.64] The banks a G, all CREAM downs a bet
[03:08.29] Money feed good, opposites off the set
[03:10.77] It ain't hard to see my seeds need God-degree
[03:13.38] I got mouths to feed, unnecessary beef is more cows to breed
[03:16.57] I'm on some tax-free shit by any means
[03:19.18] Whether bounty-hit scheme or some counterfeit CREAM
[03:21.74] I learned much from such swift cons who run scams
[03:24.30] Veterans got the game spiced like ham
[03:26.83] And from that, sons are born and guns are drawn
[03:29.55] Clips are fully loaded and then blood floods the lawn
[03:32.29] Disciplinary action was a fraction of strength
[03:36.03] That made me truncate the length one-tenth
[03:37.75] Woofers thump, tweeters hiss like air pumps
[03:40.31] RZA shaved the track, niggas caught razor bumps
[03:43.00] Scarred trying to figure who invented
[03:45.41] This unprecedented, opium-scented, dark-tinted
[03:48.64] Now watch me blow him out his shoes without clues
[03:51.28] Cause I won't hesitate to detonate, I'm short fused
