[Intro: Big Kwam]

Yo, cop the lye with Aquasky

Big Kwam, when I drop, it’s fly, nah’mean?

Dop the lye with Aquasky

Big Kwam, when I drop, know’m saying?

Check it out, uh huh.  Check it out, uh huh

Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh


[Verse 1: Big Kwam]

Life

Stinks—that’s why I get dough and skate like ice rinks

Prey on weak rappers like slipping virgins spiked drinks (What?)

Your whole team get blown clean like Afro seen

Dope like codeine, feed your mind with spoken proteins

Beside that, collide tracks from hi-hats

To bass kicks, shit is laced with abrasive, fly raps

I’m all that plus condiments, prevail dominant

Fully competent, turn the tides against the oxygen

Put it on like moccasins and sweatshirts, network

With my peeps. You geeks sign deals and get jerked

Eloquent execution expert (Come on!), fiber optics

They hit your brain with more hot shit than a TEC squirt

Guess who drop the blessed jewel, replenish the cesspool

On some shit like, “If you don’t like my style, then F you”

Throw lines like fishing poles—catch submission holds

My mission to hold the gold—for real

Mad emcees make ass-bets, they’re wack in all aspects

No direction like piss after you had sex

The phonographic drug traffic, y’all niggas have hit

My tablet inflicting fatter gammas like torn fabric

Collab with written talents and weed habits

Fulfill the prophecy my man Twan told elaborate

Milk like magnesia, you collapse in seizures

My rap releases, contact, gat squeezes on rap preachers

Yeah!

[Verse 2: Big Kwam]

The hono-

-rary up-top affiliate drop deliberate

Math like pyramids, legacy of advanced immigrants (Come on!)

Kwam be killing shit, exotic profit to infinite (Uh huh!)

And if you slept on people, my shit, then consider it

Like an automatic blow, sporadic holes

Italic scrolls fold to manifest these erratic flows

Batter foes who came inadequate, trying to battle with

These immaculate tablet prisms elaborate

The man who wrote paragraphs of poison snatched your antidote

Split your cantaloupe with speed of an antelope

Now who’s testing (What?) the true essence of crew dismemberance?

(Come on!) Prepubescent freshmens get split into two sections

The split’s made. The script lay sharp like switchblades

On this stage, niggas get schooled like 5th grade

Rugrats herbed to resort to pacifiers

The last messiah of rapid-fire mics blessed for hire

Yeah!

[Outro (Overlapped with Hook): Big Kwam]

Word is bond

Big Kwam, young and reckless, what

The deal?

Lucky Juliano, my man

Big Si twisting chocolate thai, my man

D. Rikers Island, stay strong

Word is bond. Big Kwam

‘97 shit

And I’m out
