[Verse One]

I got them, no trip, straight line rhymes

Like the Grand Concourse and 1-4-9

But in L.A. the writer's pitch was at Fairfax and Olympic

At [?] on the block where Ethiopians kick it

Salaam

It's like the mic's a part of my arm

I use it to make my mark on the world like Krylon

I give the special ladies a shoulder to cry on

And anyone that sleeps, a Platform to die on

Buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck

Construction begins

But the original structure's within

You gotta keep living

Use all the gifts you've been given

And be precise with your blueprints

But these rookies are too sloppy to work the plan out

I tell 'em "Don't be to greedy to pull your hand out."

Cats that radiate can't help but stand out

We're travelling but air, sea and land route

Mega live, electrify, straight hazardous

Expansion Team sound system is sinking battleships

This is where poetry and pride collide

My advice is to survive y'all...stay alive

[Hook]

Stay alive y'all

Love life and live long

People live and let live, live right or live wrong

Stay alive y'all

Love life and live long

People live and let live, live right or live wrong

Stay alive y'all

Love life and live long

People live and let live, live right or live wrong

Stay alive y'all

"For the rest of life"

People live and let live, live right or live wrong

[Verse Two]

They want the best at work they want the best at play

They call R.A.K.A.A

A good enough reason for your crew to stay away

Aslan to The Bay, C.A. all day

I'ma, master builder, full service contractor

Hard hat cat with dump trucks and tractors

Respect sacred ground where spirits and bones live

Headed to pyramids and I've been to Stonehenge

So I, know the ingenuity of men

The original structure lies within

Live you got to live or you die within

If you don't live the truth you live a lie within

We build from the ground up you on deadly ground

I told y'all to take Caution on Unbound

I take flight then I cut through the night

If you clowns get too fly, you get gunned down

I'd rather build than battle

But I battle so we don't build another Tower of Babble

Trying to keep us together so I'm moving it worldwide

I'd advise you survive y'all

Stay alive

[Hook]
