Critical Condition

[Verse 1]

S-P-E-L-L B-O-U-N-D belongs to me

But it was bitten by another MC

Thought he knew me and could do me

But that would never be, wanna see me, wannabe me

Couldn't see me or catch me

You're just a tiny-weeny Pee-wee, that couldn't match me

X-terminator, terminator X

And in reverse I'm the top that'll rock the first

Hype rhyme, of my time, every time is rhyme time

And even on the radio, rhyme time is prime time

Nickel and dime rhyme, committing a crime rhyme

An emcee would want to be like my rhyme

A rapper that's smart is the one that learns

Dumb ones die from third degree burns

Lit em up, torch em, scorch the Bentley

I'm killing them softly, but doing it sadly

It would've been all right if he just walked past

But the brother wanted wreck so I wrecked that ass

I'm doing demo, not demonstration but demolition

Leaving competition in critical condition

Whether a jam in-doors or parties outdoors

Hangin' emcees like western outlaws

Next time you hear the X rhyme won't you

Mind your own business, I know you won't do

The same that he did, you get what he got

Blindfold, cigarette, one-two-three shot

To the head, left you dead and stinkin

But at least it'll keep the next man thinkin

About what will happen to him while I'm rappin

Snatching up by the neck and bitch slap him

So next time you're feelin bold

Keep on Movin' like Soul II Soul

"Critical Condition

You're in critical condition" 4x

[Verse 2]

Your condition is critical, competition is pitiful

Oughta put it in the words of Daffy Duck, you're despcicable

Dope, if I was a drug I'd be a Kilo

Trips of 4,5,6 if I was playing Cee-lo

A roulette, a black jack like in a casino

And I still kick a slow jam better than Lillo

Rhymes is what I'm dope with, you better get hope with

Soap with rope with if you think you can cope with

Me, the D, cause that's who I am

Got more bodies than the Son of Sam

Love to eat a sandwich, peanut butter and jam

But I do not like Green Eggs and Ham

Won't slip, trip or stutter

Easily cut a, rapper like butter, make you say what a

Hell of an emcee, drink Coke not Pepsi

Knock ya out like the late Jack Dempsey

You're weak and lack style no need to act wild

Slay another rapper worse than a crack vile

I caught ya choking, no smokin' coke and

No time for jokin, cause I'm provokin'

It's just a token, chump rappers I'm yokin'

And I'll break ya down and leave ya broken

Catch ya like Batman, eat ya like Pac-Man

Stopping crime like Jake and the Fatman

I'm more aggressive than Lawrence Taylor

But I'ma good guy like Popeye the Sailor

So next time you think of battling quit

You got the nerve to call yourself an emcee? Bullshit

[Scratch]

"Critical Condition

You're in critical condition" 4x

[Verse 3]

I'm in the limelight, you're wrong and I'm right

And if you plan to bite a rhyme of mine bite the rhyme right

I'll stop you like a stop sign or better yet a stop light

And then bag you like groceries in ShopRite

Oh, boy ya, I don't eat Goya

My name is DMX but I didn't make "Latoya"

It's me the great one, rappin Pitbull

I already eat one so I'm kinda full

But I can always make room for another

Father, mother, sister, brother or whatever other

That wants to try me, they're grimy, slimey

Looking like BuckWheat or better yet Stymie

Can't deny me, take me or buy me

Wet me or dry me, bake me or fry me

I start to switch up and change the pitch up

Back smack the wack crap, you start to bitch up

No need for beefin, so keep your teeth in

Your mouth out the rhyme I caught you thievin'

Your rhymes are stolen, and you won't be holdin

A mic for much longer cause I be rollin'

Just like a bowling ball, knock ya down

Find yourself swollen and on the ground

There's no way to describe the rhymes I've written

So cold, I could leave a rapper frostbitten

So hot, I burn him beyond recognition

When I'm on a mission you're in critical condition
