[Verse 1: Ruby Ibarra]

Muthafucka I'm a pandemic, starting a plague

So no more wack after today, these rappers dropping away

I call era (cholera) a time of "measly," we be lacking all the true shit

I influence a (influenza) generation fuck that "yellow fever" bullshit, so

Who be so proper? Using the the bars to

Move and alarm ya, lose it and conquer

You see I brought the Ruby the monsta'

Ruby Ibarra, they'll be screaming that tomorra'

And I promise with this art I gotta break they words like commas

I'm the author and the artist who got it like dalai lama

I'm the guru with the flows, you couldn't boo this, it's too cold

Like a prophet I'm luminous and so it's lucrative you know

I'm stopping the garbage when off the top, I'm just popping the rhymes

Off with the honest, I got the target and dropping the lines

Sorry this artist has gotten godly, my god it's the prime

Got this, I rock it, I'm p-p-pompous, I bodied the lines


[Chorus: Ruby Ibarra]

This is for the fallen raps - may you rest in beats

I plague the emcees, every single time I speak

A moment of silence, I mean I'm silencing the beats

Cuz I plague the emcees, every single time I speak

Falling down down, falling falling down (they... keep)

Falling down down, falling falling down (they... keep)


[Verse 2: Ruby Ibarra]

A massacre if you will, of a savage back with a will

Just harassing, bashing they skill, in a fashion rapping a will

Like Marshall with the language arts, language full of martial arts

No martial language, use this art to question law and start a march

Fuck it, I'm outta my mind, coloring out of the lines

Skill ain't got no color, when I write the lines, you color blind

Part of a breed of emcees that's seasoned to eat this emceeing

I got the reason believing no people seeing the meaning

I mean you either see the demeanor, this Filipina a fiend of

The beat and the verses mean I'm a league of just me

And so Tacloban Pilipinas ha dugo mga ugat

Bisin diin ako, gin papakita pag nagsusurat

Ini nga mga linya nga higlarom para mag hatag hin paglaom

Kay akon na panahon, akon ngaran mga limtanon

At kung ano mang lenguahe, pare, kaya kong tapusin, sabe

Bawat bara lagi ibang classe, kinakain, grabe!


[Chorus: Ruby Ibarra]

This is for the fallen raps - may you rest in beats

I plague the emcees, every single time I speak

A moment of silence, I mean I'm silencing the beats

Cuz I plague the emcees, every single time I speak

Falling down down, falling falling down (they... keep)

Falling down down, falling falling down (they... keep)
