[Chorus: Nas sample]

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"


[Verse 1: Taha Khaliq]

You are now feelin' the sounds of fellas from Midwest

These brothers blow the spot while you're phonin' in bomb threats

Them Basement Khemists, top notch vocal supremists

Punish the gimmick-ass artists that sound timid with their rap shit

While real emcees run lyrics

And strike through your physical frame and hurt your spirit

I'm tryna hit them hard like the Royals in '85

The only year them weak motherfuckers could swing it live

You see, what we bring is bottom line straight facts

Rhymin' over tracks to unsnatch snippets on wax

And I'ma end this with my name, Kaliq

Khemists keep the crowd open like the legs of the neighborhood freak


[Chorus: Nas sample]

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"


[Verse 2: J Lee]

Now if I decide to release this masterpiece, you're best to ban it

Because I possess mad flows that'll explode the whole planet

Leavin' Hip-Hop fiends open and freestylers frantic

Whole cities fallin' into the Pacific or Atlantic

Split the equator like this shit was perforated

You can dig in every crate in the world and can't duplicate it

Underrated last year, but this year we're bringin' fear

Wack MC's get upset, like I just took the last beer

And shook it up and bust it all over your crew

Got niggas obtainin' Triple A from damage that I do

Basements Khemists, represent 365, untouchable

So scrape up five-hundred, son and pay your deductible

'Cause you're free

[Chorus: Nas sample & Joc Max]

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique" (Everybody, come on)

(Haha, yo, yo)


[Verse 3: Joc Max]

You shoot your shot and Mr. Maximum will block it

I'm known across the globe from the South to the tropics

I kick like clubfoot, your knees out the socket

Oh, now you see I flip with no main topic

You can't knock it, the Khemical is where we rock it

Mass produce the sound and raise the price for a profit

A tip trife truce two-timer, terminate and torch it

You flake like you forced to face the facts, fake, and forfeit

You backwards, baffled, brained, broken, black-ass buster

You lost like weight, lame lyrics, lack and luster, shit

Trash poppin', not knowin' what you hoppin' in

I keep the whole world gossipin', dun


[Chorus: Nas sample]

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"


[Outro: Nas sample]

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak—" "with correct—"

"I freak—" "with correct—"

"With correct tech—"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"

"With correct technique"

"I freak beats with correct technique"
