Lyric

Prepare yourself to catch a verse from the big purse

Rotate the megahertz, where you heard it first

The perpendicular, said none similar

Quadruple any figure, quick on the trigger

Helter skelter, wig out by the goodfella

Not Lou Pinella cuz I'm black and mo' betta

Bust a phenomenum, we come to get busy

Deep in roots, but my name ain't Kizzie

Many many march cuz I'm heavy on the starch

Never tell a farce when I scale on a arch

Jammin' on the radio, brothers say, "way to go"

Shape it like Play-Do, soprano at the Chateau

My theory periodically flows a odyssey

Bigger than modern technology

So save all the chit-chat when I kick a format fat

It's like that...

C.L. is the attribute you salute

Cuz I gotta make loot, can't afford to be cute

Enter the equilibrium in a medium

Breaking your cranium with no ultimatum

Drop a psalm like a bomb, never land in your palm

And now I'm so cool and calm

Pure unadulterated, premeditated

Lyrical form, Pete Rock is the storm

Sophistication I kick to a nation

I rare compilation I call recreation

The prognosis, so mackadocious

Straight up ferocious for those who can focus

Large like the Beatles, ask all my peoples

Never make movies, so don't talk sequels

So, hon, save the chit-chat when I kick a format fat (it's fat)

It's like that...

I'm all sold out, no doubt, without a question

The blessing your guests in a suprucated session

Anyway your honor, heresay the melee

Is here for the payday, so A to the K

Or should I say Deda, original baby par

Smooth like a reservoir, the funky Shang-Ri-La

No shame in my game, I'm set to entertain

And if it wasn't for the fame, skinz would never know my name

So back off a tad bit, that's a bad habit

Cuz I write the raw... for sure

Now I'm a flip a style and get crazy versatile

Never fragile cuz I'm flowin' like the Nile

Swing a jewel or a gem, notice how I say them

With my approach, smoke a rhyme to a roach

A four-season lover, light-skinned and bigger

But what I deliver come before the cotton picker

So here's to another hit, perfectly legitimate

When I hit the skinz, guaranteed to keep the candle lit

So save all the chit-chat when I kick a format fat

It's like that...
