  • See the crowd in an uproar acting unstable
  • Here comes Dark Gable raps remarkable
  • Mic ripper, cash flipper, Cristal sipper
  • Derrie're batalliere that's French for ass whipper
  • Long time putting work in this, to be tremendous
  • If I'm not the best then I'm a damn striking resemblance
  • I roll the dice on the streets that be cold as ice
  • And cause great disturbance just like a poltergeist
  • I come attacking this enrage to disengage the missing page
  • To the newest in age that's hitting stage
  • For I be one that knows the art
  • To get you up and out your seat, if you was Rosa Parks
  • Tell me how much can you take from me the man to make
  • Rhymes that's so butter my breath smell like land o lakes
  • You know the lick, seen me hit em like a brick
  • Plus my posse run thick, not that click from Mario flick
  • Beware of one of the best they be
  • You wanna test the God I hope you mean a SAT
  • Because your poetasterous style it plain bore me
  • Pardon the vainglory, but here's the Kane story
  • [Chorus]
  • Bringing you that uncut pure, knocking at your door
  • About to give you more of the raw
  • Point yo hands up to the sky
  • [Verse 2]
  • Fuck the chorus
  • And let the lyrics sit up in the track like rigamortis
  • I spit a few to listen to when this I do it's as if as you
  • Was invisible it'll make your life miserable
  • Hip-hop icon, keep a grip like a python
  • I be that wrong one to get fly on
  • Boy you got to get that playa hatin' out you
  • That's the other side of the game and I ain't Erykah Badu
  • Black Caesar, don't you even reach my way
  • You'd sooner find a vital point that's on Priest Pai Mae
  • I heat it up to where I pasteurize half the guys
  • A fast demise disaster lies as he dies
  • Confront one of the best at rhyming
  • What I write it be so rough that my ink pen need alignment
  • The untouchable, don't want to tempt me
  • I come kicking through your door, unlawful entry
  • It be me, even though none of y'all want to see me
  • For real, damn I know how Jehovah's witness feel
  • I remember how I formed it up
  • Cause I took what was raw and then I warmed it up
  • Turned the fire down to simmer as I calmed it up
  • But take a look I think the Kane about to overcook
  • Come and get it, but you better come with paramedics
  • Cause you couldn't bring it to me if you worked for Fed Ex
  • I come cutting through split his gut in two
  • I touch em what em do you know the style ain't nothing new
  • [Chorus]
  • Bringing you that uncut pure, knocking at your door
  • About to give you more of the raw
  • Point yo' hands up to the sky, high
  • Get on down baby we keep it live
  • [Repeat]
  • [Verse 3]
  • A good game it lets the plot thicken,
  • but the thing that just ain't clickin'
  • Is the way y'all legalize trickin'
  • You talk about your ride and you don't even got one
  • But I can pull a hot one, when inside of a Datsun
  • The wicked in the bed, plus the wicked in the head
  • When I shoot the game, it's like my tongue got infra red
  • Let the Messiah take you higher as I supply ya' what you require
  • Desire and admire it entire
  • Sudden impact as I'm guttin' em black
  • Closest thing to me would be; nothin' in fact
  • I come with more in skill, to always score and kill
  • Females adore and thrill, sweeter thang than Lauryn Hill
  • As I return with a vengeance, here comes the day of independence
  • Approach them all with some bad intentions
  • In other words I'm making them resign, diminish mine
  • Runnin' through them like a finish line
  • [Chorus]
 
  • This one goes to my man old dirty, one love we be swigging brew
  • Trigger too, even Nas I be digging too
  • Let's see whose left Mobb Deep, oh yeah Meth
  • That brother's hot like curry, one love to Keith Murray

  • At times get pornographic, lord man I gots to have it
  • Then I commit to hit you with this composite that's ultimate
  • Too legit splendid come get wit' it for your comfort
  • But then sloppily, rappers try to copy me
  • Take pieces of my property, and use it all unproperly
  • And probably, been focusing a while to copy my style
  • But child what I'll compile is too versatile

  • Whatever it takes to see your nerve gone, and word born
  • Black Caesar gonna get his swerve on
  • My name should be referred to in medical terms
  • Cause I get way up in the cut and I'm talking way worse than germs
  • You like to chase it playin catch like Tom & Jerry
  • But on the contrary, I'd rather sip the Dom Peri
  • Lay back in harmony, because it's so bizarre to see
  • That all the hard core rappers are slowly turning R&B
  • Well pardon me, you contradict yo'self, I see you not perfect yo'self
  • You like that type music yo'self, stick yo'self
  • What happened to black men of pride ‘nuff men have died
  • Nowadays what's been applied, in hip-hop is genocide
  • That's when the rappers go get the clappers
  • Can't you see they trying to strap us just to trap us, good god it's backwards

  • Effects on MC's are similar to kryptonite
  • Water flows that be hard to distinguish
  • It's best to relinquish, you don't want the God to bring this
  • I'm marvelous at the art of this, even if you got assist

  • to explode and drop on you like flight 800
  • Chorus
  • Keep it moving world renown
  • showing and proving
  • That we can hold it down
  • Verse 2

  • And be another statistic
  • How many more to try, is sure to die
  • Slaughter I, all that playa hating only makes me fortify
  • to get the papers to me is a necessity
  • And I don't want a piece of the pie I want the recipe

  • I'm the reason why the lady sings the blues
  • Don't get it confused
  • Chorus

  • [Kane talking]
  • Here's a little food for thought,
  • as I tell it, cause if it happened to this cat,
  • then it can happen to you,
  • do the knowledge
  • [song starts]
  • I was sittin' outside double parked after dark,
  • I think it was the corner of Nostrand and St. Mark,
  • That's when this stray cat walked up to me,
  • Now I was sure he would be,
  • but you woulda thought he'd know me,
  • tellin' his life story to me,
  • he said 'Yo Kane', since way back in his life,
  • days of Rappers Delight, yo he was after the hype,
  • he rocked the Kangols, Adidas when Run and them had that spot,
  • when I came out, he had a flat-top,
  • and when Naughty came out, a couple years ago,
  • he even tried the braids up in his hair, but they ain't hear him tho,
  • vexed and down, you know next he found,
  • Heavy D was blowing up, so then he tried to gain extra pounds,
  • no thanks to that, they ranked him wack,
  • only thing that's left to do, was to go gangsta rap,
  • so now he rhyme about the keys being sold,
  • the G's being fold, the trees being rolled,
  • now sure he should, he started acting like he from the hood,
  • talking thug game and had his record sales doing good,
  • and so now, you on the road to riches,
  • referring to the womankind as hoes and bitches,
  • yeah, you the man now because you rap is for ?????,
  • but you got your 7 year old daughter listenin',
  • the twist begin,
  • when that the image you projecting,
  • it starts to reflecting on your shorty cause she checking,
  • [Chorus X2]
  • Do you really know,
  • what's the path that you really need to go,
  • and what example you really need to show,
  • the good rep or the hood rep,
  • while she's walking in her father's footsteps
  • It be that excess drama, wonder rhymer,
  • that could make one rapper, convert to, gun clapper,
  • that acting buckwild, boy you know that ain't your style,
  • plus your thug profile is now reflecting on your child,
  • you thinking that it couldn't happen,
  • but then it happen,
  • and now you're rappin, came back to haunt you,
  • because you want to,
  • be in her face puffin' li with your crew,
  • you even let her take a sip or two upon your brew,
  • instead of tryin to shed light, to keep her head right,
  • so that she wouldn't do the things that the next kid might,
  • oh now you never did consider tho,
  • your kid could go,
  • trying to do the things she saw you do up in your video,
  • you went upstairs thinking that she wasn't able,
  • slipping, left your glock sittin' pon the coffee table,
  • so as you hang, with your gang, doin your thang,
  • BLOWE! unexpectedly to your ears the shot rang,
  • came down, never thinking that you'd see what you saw,
  • right there, layin in blood across your livin room floor,
  • so now, as you sit in grief, total disbelief,
  • cause everything that ever mattered,
  • to you is all shattered,
  • instead of concentratin' heavily on what your rep be,
  • you should have been thankful for your child like Cheryl Pepsi,
  • cause if you would have stayed aware,
  • to whose in your care,
  • she wouldn't be no casualty to your career";
  • [Chorus X2]
  • Where did they find you?,
  • you came into this game and let this new trend blind ya,
  • A&R's was wrong to sign ya,
  • you gotta be true to this game to stay in the art,
  • but guys like you get bent apart,
  • because you ain't got it in the heart,
  • representing who? you better not be getting new,
  • how you gonna be guerilla when you never been up in the zoo,
  • your whole persona's theatrical,
  • ain't nothing bout you natural,
  • here, show me now, how many gats you pull,
  • cause when you talk that talk,
  • you gotta walk that walk,
  • or leave it up to the real OG's up North,
  • cause those who dramatize, realize, and be advised,
  • you couldn't handle 3 to 5,
  • cause many seeking fortune and fame,
  • got caught in the game,
  • thinking the thug status was supporting the claim,
  • all you gangsta acts y'all be guerillas on tracks,
  • but relax, cause this is just wax,
  • tell em again,
  • you gangsta acts be guerillas on tracks,
  • but relax, cause this is just wax,
  • one more time,
  • y'all gangsta acts y'all be guerillas on tracks,
  • but relax, this just wax, nigga, damn
  • [Chorus X2]
 
  • There's no myth or fable about the pimpin' at your label
  • What goes on under the table, why you think your deal is so unstable?
  • Now, whose the macaroni, A&R's acting phony
  • Once you make the matrimony, then he start to slackin' don't he
  • Or could it be the president that's being hesitant
  • Playin' his artist like a corner workin' specimen
  • And I ain't kidding you when I say it's political
  • The way they make a ridicule of artists can be pitiful
  • You know damn well there shouldn't be no company CO
  • Trying to show me about rap that's 53 or so
  • But yet and still they want to add advice, trying to keep their status right
  • When they should be working records for Gladys Knight
  • Who shape artists, man they catching rape charges
  • Once you sign on the dotted line, they lead you in the blind
  • Then you find, your state of revenue remains the same
  • Cause you getting less points than Steve Kerr be getting in a game
  • And just because it be too hardcore to judge it
  • They won't even touch it, and get to frontin' on the budget
  • When new artists come out, I can foresee the worst outcome
  • Cause everybody I know got beat their first album
  • So I took my contract to a lawyer so he can check it out (He don't know)
  • Then I took it to Dionne Warwick so she can read my hand (She don't know)
  • Chorus
  • It's a shame, when artists gotta deal with cheats
  • They got game, for every young rapper they see out on the streets
  • You sign your name, they get like Big Red on the Five Heartbeats
  • Now who the blame, when you starvin' and your record label eats
  • Verse 2
  • Preach brother
  • They say the truth will set you free, but I see signs of treachery
  • Go on perpetually, here's how they get you G
  • They use the tricks, just to juice your mix
  • But cross be in their heart like a vampire stabbed with a crucifix
  • I had the enemy in my vicinity with the false identity
  • Of a friend to me to injure me
  • They ride along just to guide you wrong
  • Play like they beside you strong, and start to faking moves like Olajuwon
  • Who side you on, revealing all that low down dirty dealing
  • I can see your skin peeling it changed like a chameleon
  • First you believe in them, but once you disagree with them
  • They try to get Magilla repertoire and that ain't even them
  • And all those who has betrayed, be fast to fade
  • Cause they cast a shade, with the masquerade
  • What's dealt, is low blows below the belt
  • Lord have mercy, I know how Julius Caesar must have felt
  • I start to think back when I was just a youth
  • I should have listened to the words of the God Born Truth
  • He said, ";look out for black snakes they all up in your cypher
  • Black snakes you can't see therefore they sneak up and they bite ya'";
  • They get to flippin' cause they think you slippin'
  • So remember, don't get to slippin' cause they get to flippin'
  • And trippin', what's that you grippin', beside your hippin'
  • You think my heart is skippin', go save that game for Scottie Pippen
  • Chorus
  • It's a shame, to see how far left people be going
  • They got game, to think that all this time you said you know them
  • It ain't the same, Aah, so now you see the way they flowin'
  • Now who they blame, ain't nothing but a wolf in sheep's clothing
  • Verse 3
  • Now, wait a minute, I'm starting to see lotsa, hip-hop imposters
  • Is rap a category at the Oscars?
  • Too much Nino Brown up in your life
  • Cause since then, man I done seen Wesley Snipes playin' a drag queen
  • But yet and still you want to mimic the stars of cinema
  • Pretending huh? So full of it they need an enema
  • Cause see dig, they all like to talk big
  • But then they want to renege, when there's a curling iron in their wig
  • You talking loud and saying nothing, what's the world becoming?
  • The frontin', now pay attention you may learn something
  • Now, I ain't knocking you, but come on let's be logical
  • You know that it's impossible to stop the unstoppable
  • I would suggest that they, go back and check my resume
  • Cause tunes that I made yesterday, can hang out with the best today
  • Peace to Easy Mo, cause he makes the beats to flow
  • And I grab the microphone and flip it like pizza dough
  • Chorus
  • Shame
  • Now who the blame
  • I need to be the Mayor, so I can change the things around here
  • I need to be the Governor, I need to be the Governor
