Ashes to Ashes
[Gab: "Dude, when you want me to come in?"]
[Chief Xcel: "Four bars."]
[Gab: "K. Check it."]
[Verse 1]
The ink flows as if I'm not here
Styles fall from the mentally odd and quite weird
Might y'all want to enter my yard my light-year
Flow strikes with precision for all I'm right here
With raw innervision beyond your sight hearin' it
Beyond all your senses I draw the light near
You're a flawed individual dog, I write shear
Elegance I'm a bottle of don you're light beer
So now I'm perfectin' this style it's like lairs
Of a foul dragon send MCs ridden with nightmares
Better pause before you spittin' that garbage you write
Yea Imma cause hellin' niggas to quit on the mic period
Because I've been given this right tonight
We're gonna floor you with lyrics
These suckas are not near
They are far from abilities I ignite
Dare you to start something with me
I don't ever fight fair
[Chorus]
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
We are the crew called Blackalicious
We came to rock for you and yours
Put your arms in the air, your feet on the floor. (x3)
Guaranteed to give you what you paid your money for
'cause the Blackalicious Crew got rhymes galore
Rhymes galore (x19)
[Verse 2]
I got talent these critics do not have
Still they write like some type of authority on rap
Really like they opinion is worthy
I'm like after you make worthy music
Then come and be that cat jack
*UHNGH!*
Plummeting raps at you that's that?
*UHNGH!*
Period done then get checks from ASCAP
Just gimme a drum Imma spark the last match
Y'all hit me with one rhythm do it I'll smash that
My meridians hum I'm so lyrically advance
I deliver it from within leaving you ladsback
In millenniums done because really I'm passed that
I'm a million and one styles further now catch that
(Catch that!)
I was born to murder your rap black alerted to that fact
You're certain to have crap to say
Then get slained and hurt as I lash back
And verbally ransack your turf and leave cats flat
AAH!
[Chorus]
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
We are the crew called Blackalicious
We came to rock for you and yours
Put your arms in the air, your feet on the floor. (x3)
Guaranteed to give you what you paid your money for
'cause the Blackalicious Crew got rhymes galore
Rhymes galore (x19)
