Blaze one for the Brooklyn crew what 
Blaze one for the Cincinnati crew yes 
And for the whole world and for the whole world 

[Chorus]
Yo Hi Tek they still sleepin' 
As a right we still peakin' 
They still weakin' we adventurous thrill seekin' 
We will begin new ways of freakin' it 
It's the dawn of the MC who think before he spit 
On Mission we intercept your transmission 
Bringin exactly what the fans missin' 
You, bare witness to, the transition like 
Give me that microphone, man listen 

Yo, I literally 
Obliterate MC's who rhymin' pitifully 
Let's get it straight like degrees of longitude and latitude 
Adjust your position like your attitude 
Even cats frontin' had to move 
Now let's begin, while you testin' these better men 
You get fucked up like it's your first Friday as freshman 
Letter man on the varsity team, I pipe dream 
Make they cream freeze like reindeer caught up in high beams 
Yo it seems that they sedative like open wounds and I'm lyrically salty 
All your shit is faulty, watch me turn jams into revolutionary parties 
Stoppin' your heart piece, while we write soliloquies wit Sharpies 
We stay in the air like aerosol to carry y'all 
?Over crept in? MC's like Jerotol 
We men in the mirror y'all, your career is like a metaphor for suffering 
When we rush in, beat these niggas like percussion 
You ain't touchin' nuttin' 
I give instructions and move on your weak production 
Drop that African king shit and the royal flushing 
Respect the queen, from straight from BK 
Stick like girls' legs when they run the Penn Relay 

[Chorus]
 
"Talib Kweli it's the Reflection" "Hi-Tek" 
"When we livin this shit" "Out of the 7-18 we meet the 51-3" 

I blast through your illusions 
Shatterin' your shadow as I snatch the light from you 
When I want to, confusion is the conclusion you come to 
That's the best you could come up wit 
When your brain pattern is scattered and that's why you dropped that dumb shit 
Click first when we hit next when I'm dispersing 
Cursing me like ham 'cause I'm original when you're like the King James version 
You need a surgeon to put you back together 
When your parts is missin' like aquarian gospels 
We can get more hostile without peace 
Believe we balance positivity wit negative 
Legal and illegal 'cause it's relative 
If the law prevent me from being a man, then what's the deal? 
In the Hour of Chaos, my microphone's my Black Steel 
I grip it wit that sure shot feel 
Drivin' through your mind, Hi-Tek be on the wheels 
We ride up on your heels, talkin' back now 
You pop more junk than a thane or bird? 
Fallin' flat on your face, you got caught trippin' off your words 
Explain that simunicy? 
You oxy-moron, pimpled faced dummy goin' through puberty 
Flippin' late night through cable channels lookin' for nudity 
You're junior-high, what could you do to me 
Nuttin' is new to me but I'm still learnin', what 

Hip-hop is in our hearts and we On Mission from the start 
To leave our mark up on this rock 
Too many people is just livin' 
Hip-hop is in our hearts and we On Mission from the start 
To leave our mark up on this rock 
Too many people is just livin' 

[Chorus]

Listen listen, huh man listen 
We intercept the transmission 
Bringin' exactly what you fans missin' 
Hi-Tek 
Uh uh, Talib Kweli yo 
Exactly what it's supposed to be yo 
None of y'all niggas is close to me, yo 
Step back before you get your head cracked 
Yo steppin' in through set back, I never sweat that 
Aiyyo my man see Smith is jet-black 
That's okay though, aiyyo 
I build these niggas up and then I smash em to the ground like Play-Dough 
And then I lay low
