[Chorus: Blue Raspberry]

When I first stepped on the scene, niggas was petrified

Jet back to the lab like they were being chased by homicide

My rap flow does you right, Tical

And it will never steer you wrong

And all you bitch-ass niggas in the industry

Your careers won't be lasting long

When I first stepped on the scene, niggas was petrified

Jet back to the lab like they were being chased by homicide

My rap flow does you right, Tical

And it will never steer you wrong

And all you bitch-ass niggas in the industry

Your careers won't be lasting long


[Verse 1: Method Man]

Check it! I'm the fuckin' man who they mention

Notice that other niggas' rap styles is bogus

Doodoo compared to this versatile voodoo

Blazin', the stuff that ignites stimulation

Inside ya, 'cause I be that household provider

Providin' the rhyme that be deep as The Poseidon Adventure

Niggas need to test they freakin' tincture

For the sickness that be spreadin' with the quickness

Remedies, cousin, I be doin' on my enemy

Penalty, then I drink 40's to they memories

Emotion, coursin' through your town street vicinity

Blunt smoke in the air reveals my identity


[Break: Method Man]

(Tical.... tical... tical, tical...)

As I keep it movin', we keep it movin', uh

Keep it movin', and keep it movin', uh

Keep it movin', baby, we be movin', uh

Keep it movin', we keep it—huh, rhahhrh!


[Bridge: Method Man]

What's that rhythm? What's that sound?

Party people gettin' down

When it hit no doubt about

Just Release Yo' Delf


[Verse 2: Method Man]

My God, somebody said, it's on — if it is, then I'll be set

To blow a nigga up with my five fingers of death

I bring it to his whole damn fam, understand if you frontin'

On any man down with the Clan, I be comin'

For the headpiece, you can't cope

For my brother, I bring it to the Pope, word to mother

Serial killer style from the Isles of Stat'

My peoples — are you with me? Where you at?!

Shit's gettin' deep in here, I mean like thick

Niggas lookin' all in my face like they want dick

It's about to hit the fan, hit the flo'

That's all I can stands, and I can't stands no mo'

What is it? Niggas think they bigger

Because they got their finger on the trigger of a pistol

They don't know I'm wicked when I start to kick it

Eat they raw sound, wash it down with a Mistic

Better yet a Snapple

Nigga want the juice, but he don't want the hassle

When we try to overthrow the castle

Better yet, the temple, I'm comin' to your town

Black down, the rental car, the pistol

Cocked, if you don't want to burn from the Glock, then beware

I buck shots, meanin' what? The buck stops here

No more dough will be made

Unless it's bein' made by who?


[Bridge: Method Man]

What's that rhythm? What's that sound?

Party people gettin' down

When it hit no doubt about

Just release yo' delf


[Break: Method Man]

(Tical.... tical... tical, tical...)

As I keep it movin', we keep it movin', uh

Keep it movin', and keep it movin', uh

Keep it movin', baby, we be movin', uh

Keep it movin', we keep it—huh, rhahhrh!


[Chorus: Blue Raspberry]

When I first stepped on the scene, niggas was petrified

Jet back to the lab like they were being chased by homicide

My rap flow does you right, Tical

And it will never steer you wrong

And all you bitch-ass niggas in the industry

Your careers won't be lasting long


[Break 2: Method Man]

Throw your hands in the sky

And wave them from side to side

And if you’re ready to spark up the Meth Tical

Let me hear you say "stimuli"


[Chorus: Blue Raspberry]

When I first stepped on the scene, niggas was petrified

Jet back to the lab like they were being chased by homicide

My rap flow does you right, Tical

And it will never steer you wrong

And all you bitch-ass niggas in the industry

Your careers won't be lasting long
