[Intro]

Introducing, the star of the show

Bring it on if you think you can hang

Represent one time, time, time

May I have your attention, please?

What you are about to hear is undoubtedly

The most incredible MC of the year

No-no-no-no, no wait, no please, no wait, no listen, um

All that I wish to do is to display

A brand new rendition of style that I have

It'll only take a moment of your time, four minutes!

Then it will be beneficial when it is replenished

But then again, you might never return

To the shit you're hearing on the radio get burned

I have a dream, one day we will get to the promised land

Then the president will be me

The government will be Shabaam, Mos and Kweli, that's it

All wackness is now banned, obtain access through retina scans

Voice verification enhancement

The man who moves his hand and will motion light detection

For genetic confirmation, DNA verification

Access: Pharaoahe; Codename: 13

Residence: Southside, Queens; Armed and dangerous and [?]


[Verse]

Smack the nigga in the mouth, stabbed his mother in the eyeball

I brawl like Mike Tys' in his prime

My advice, you think twice before you grime

'Cause I'll wink once (one time), your bitch is mine

'Cause she's feeling the flow, best believe I'm drilling the hole

Heads high, kill 'em with the low

Revealing, chilling, filling up position to be killing the show

Stopping 'em on top feeling, plus I'm grilling the dough

For a couple of million or so, I'll be willing to blow

Pharoahe's a chameleon

A million niggas are feeling 'em on the low

Every syllable of mine is an umbilical cord through time

For the sick typical niggas who choose to pick pitiful rhymes

Spit, shit, it's more dimes to get

More higher levels of spirituality to reach

And I'm trying to win


[Outro]

Refuse to lose

Refuse to lose

Refuse to lose

Refuse to lose
