Yeah, word, I heard about it, man
Yeah, word, similar story, you know?
[Raekwon:]
Regardless, we all ninjas, and got money,
But the theme of the story
Is yo, checking how they came for me
(This is it, B)
Kinda brief from the gold teeth era,
Bro dreaming on C.R.E.A.M.
Complimentaries and beef
I'm from the wild side, a militant was made by the foremost elite
It sound good, brung my rifle shit, clean
Met the others, lit a blunt, begin
I'm like Nicole Kidman in the wind, niggas is wild, niggas is eat
Then I chanced it, blood can always beat mud
Mud is part of being thug, I guess it's advance, we from the street
This is me, I'm ready to beat, whatever, we gon' off' it
One time alone, yo, they pricked up Unique
Meth standing there, rare hustler hair, right in front of the building
Them niggas do them killings out there
This is deep, me, Rebel, U-G, he walked in the room
Scarf rap, pair of Timberlands, beat
This the potion, roll the scroll out, speaked and another walked in
Knowing now this is a thief
We from the same voc's, this is like a pot roast
Hottest niggas who rhyme, I know them from the time,
This is not 'posed to happen
Peace Black, we wasn't cool
Threw the piece back, everything good, I lit the leaf, captain
Got a mission, to make sure the world recognize our position
I'm standing near the kitchen
Shit just might work, I lit the stink, this could be the realest shit
This could be the realest flip quick
Everybody stand up in militant, army jackets down
I said to myself, this the realest clique
True champ, we gon' rep it through, keep it cool
No boot camp, no hard work, just some loot, family
All in, ball til you fall, loyal as ever
I grab my leather, I'm a lay til you call
[Chorus x3: Raekwon]
Generals, demons, nighttime, vultures
Caught up on the ropes, let's team it
Everybody seen it, Zenith, what you mean?

Easy now
Don’t give yourself away
Don’t let them know you’re breaking
These are wolves and they carry no sympathies
Don’t look down
These are but minor details
Hopefully they’ll keep you alive
Don’t let them see you’re breaking
Achieve to justify
Pearls before swine
No more hesitation
No more slipping away
No more waiting for a loving grace
You will crawl
Let’s not get personal
You will serve an example to others
A skull at the gates to mark who’s the king
We learn from falling down
A willingness grows from defeat
To mock the ordinary punk
And see if you still got it in you
Did you cry? I wept like a child
In final acceptance to my own mortality
Fuck your pride, it will be your downfall
Easy now
Go lightly these are tricky times
We don’t need much fuel to feed the fire
No more hesitation
No more slipping away
No more waiting for a loving grace
Easy now
Go lightly these are tricky times

This is my body
my sacrifice to you
this is my blood
which shall be shed for your sins
i have come to be the light of the world
not to judge but to save all of you
As darkness sets,
the agony begins
one of you will betray me with a kiss of death
pray that you may not enter into temptation
God gives me strength, I`m going to be crucified
A crown of thorns
and disgraced by scourge
I took up my cross
had to carry it to the skull
do not weep for me, but for you
and your children
Father forgive them for they know not what they do.
Why did we turn our backs on him
how could we let it happen
just stood and stared at the man on the cross
the time will come when we must face life alone.
You got to make up your mind
for what you know is right
let`s not be another face in the crowd
we can do it together
Let us pray
for those who crucify - christ have mercy
for fools who follow fools - christ have mercy
for those who walk in darkness - christ have mercy

Well I often walk down to the pub in springtime
To take the summer breeze and drink with friends
But on the 12th day of September I went down there
To the derision of all muslims and Afghans
Being assaulted here in neighborhoods around me
Personally and in their jobs and schools and homes
And the barfly's said we should send 'em all back overseas
Well will you be the one to pay for their plane fare home
Well their women must come over here for sanctuary's sake
Being the victims of honor killings still permissable in numerous states
By fanatical law a shamed husband can gun 'em down you see
When it's affirmed by family and state then they have no where to flee
Well we should wipe 'em off the fuckin' map they tell me
Cause we don't know when or where they will strike next
But I say we don't know their custom or what's happened there
Being American we've been veiled from that text
Well it's easier to manipulate a leader who needs food and guns
So we've promoted chaos over there all along
To not have to deal with an independent stable oil power
Who don't need us or could tell us so long
And every time there's a faction with potential to out sell
We profiteer 'em full of guns and missiles and so go out and kill
We supported Iran and Iraq and Afghanistan oh dread
Kids with guns starving to death if they get near you you're dead
Oh take me away o'er the country side
With no natural resource or bombs or peering eyes
Away from the double standards practiced on both sides
Oh please my noble statesmen make this over
We've empowered leaders who've industrialized and overpopulated the towns
Who steal their tax money as most jobs are taken now run by machines
Our sale of food and aid get sanctioned if they don't sell oil cheap
We starve 'em for their resource yeah we have 'em on their knees
Well Israel's a source that does keep Arabs fighting
So we've consistently vetoed their division in U.N. plans
And we never sanction or exclude Israel outright
Despite atrocities performed by their own hands
And S.U.V.'s keep C.E.O.'s happy 'cause they're a status symbol and every one buys
And they burn a lot more fuel so the oil industry's happy as flies
On a shit that pollutes the air much worse then regular auto's will
And they'll keep this industry funded no matter who must be killed
We sent soldiers and weapons to the Afghanis to fight the occupying Russians
To insure an alliance and insure their trade for oil
And the communists fell anyway and we split breaking promises
Of aid and rebuilding and governance and left them fighting off warlords in turmoil
And they watched as we incinerated their brothers and sisters
In Iraq now they think our policies unfair
And that we condescend and meddle in their governments and destroy them
They think oil's the only reason why we're there
Instead of having a foreign policy for policing others and in defence
We should define it by what we're for rather than what we're against
What the perpetrators did is punishable and clearly shows to us
That you can't subjugate others to your will by violence and mistrust

Seal the chapters of your life, but they'll be immortal
Feel the scares you'll never seen on your skin
Try to remember who you are, you'll never realize
All the failures in the past come again
Dreams are shattered
Life has won again
The endless cycle

You're riding up the elevator
Shirt tucked in right
No space
Head case
Up against the street lights
This is your world walking high and mighty
I got news for you and you ain't gonna like it
A five second replay
Yeah, this is what you look like
You're so predictable
Yeah, yeah...
You're so typical
You're so predictable
Yeah, yeah...
Dah dah dahdah dah dah dahdah dah
Heavy breath
Crooked heart
Shoes tied
Up straight
Same old push and pull
You got no time
You can't be late
This is your life
Breaking teeth for smiles
One for the game
One just for the cycle
Well, all those hours in the mirror
The more you say
I hope you hear
You're so predictable
Yeah, yeah...
You're so typical
You're so predictable
Yeah, yeah...
Dah dah dahdah dah dah dahdah dah
(Dah dah dahdah)
(Yeah...)
It's me looking back at you now
You think you've got it figured it out
But you're so predictable
Yeah...
You're so predictable
Yeah, yeah...
You're so typical
You're so predictable
Yeah, yeah...
Dah dah dahdah dah dah dahdah dah
Yeah, yeah...
You're so typical
You're so predictable
Yeah, Yeah...

We'll end this all tonight
Wanna turn your back to me
When it's my turn to insert the knife
Well, shame on you, coward
You can't bleed enough to please my eyes
Please my eyes
Please my eyes
Welcome the cycle, it's turning, It patiently waits for revenge out of rage
Transition eludes the eye
When the first sight seen was the last of me
Wanted to know
Now it tears you up inside
The feelings went long ago and myself
I pray one last time
The ending is what I'm waiting for
As I've tried and lied to well.
But it's never enough to please
Yet my tounge stayed tied
And these eyes never looked down on you
But you turned your back when I needed a friend
This will end
I'm bringing the house down
And I'm taking my memories with me
When you fall your reign will shatter
And now I'm prepared for
The ending is what I'm waiting for
As I've tried and loved you well!
We'll end this all tonight
Wanna turn your back to me
When it's my turn to insert the knife
Well, shame on you, coward
You cant bleed enough to please my eyes
Please my eyes
Welcome the cycle
It surely anticipates your company
This day was your last to wake to the sight of this
