Here a track I found underneath
        Findin' beats is a treat
        An' I don't care if it top pop
        Abracadabra can't keep a tab a
        This stickin' around like D an' it stuck Chuck
        Into a mode, unloadin' pop, pop, pop
        Go the weasels that dropped from the hip hop
        Kissin' the good bye
        Goin' goin' gone
        Keep it flowin' on
        Like a lemon I ain't livin'
        Like a lime here's a line
        To those here's a rose keep the casket closed
        Gone and in check
        The next is from the X
        Wrecked and affected by the rest huh
        How I'm gonna go I gotta flow
        'Cause they figure I'm a gonna...
        Tie goes to the runner

        Politikin' I be wreckin'
        I reckon he's the electrician
        Pullin' the switches on brothers
        Who be in disposition
        I never got along wit' the long
        Arm of the law
        I saw where they place the hardcore
        To them it doesn't matter
        Where it splatter
        Our blood from the bullet
        Not ballot I vote for Jim Brown
        I know it don't rhyme
        Does it matter that he
        In fact he won't find
        Excuses inside of Murphy Brown
        I'm on a level livin' low
        Here we go I know
        If this was Africa I'd try to give a necktie
        To those runnin' & lyin' disguisin'
        Three guys (surprise)
        Tie goes to the runner

        Not surprised at all
        About the riot zone
        And I moan
        I wish they leave me alone yo
        This was predicted not self-inflicted
        By the rapp outta the 'hood
        They picked it good
        Hittin' heavy critical aim at all the phony names
        Prez rembezzlers
        Who gettin' voted mayor
        Lookin' at 'em wit' an
        Evil eye (why lie)
        I don't buy the fly look
        As the fall guy
        I'm livin' low across the tracks
        Politikin' who stickin' had better
        Watch their backs
        In another long hot summer
        Tie goes to the runner

        An' I quote
        I freak da notes
        I double the dose
        All she wrote
        Devour got the power of a double man
        Get excited just don't bite it or you're in trouble man
        Got a rhythm to ride
        A thought provoke
        'Cause I don't joke
        Here's a brother wit' an attitude
        Don't get me rude
        Chew it up was up it's like food
