Line for line, you got to get it but a
Little at a time, Zen approach
Gradually, I'ma get mine
Black Thought from the legendary 5th Don

Yo, yo, you wasn't payin' attention, I'm henchman, hit the entrance
Trenchin', wasn't no means, a intervention
A dollar bill will make a hundred ten yen son
How much you willin' to sacrifice to win, huh?

I personally them paid mines and then some
Climbed up an inch at a time, now who the Zen one?
If not self, whom else could you depend on?
Friends gon' swear it's aight, and probably been wrong

I've got them battlefield dents in my armor
A twitch from the drama, the trees, and bad karma
But yo, I'ma precision, proceed ya performer
We operate every night, and leave in the mornin'

To get you high as a kite is the reason you wanted
It's like, a direct flight from freezing to burning hot ****
The audience fiend for this fix
And Krush come with the guillotine for this mix yo

Line for line, you gotta get it but a
Little at a time, Zen approach
Gradually, I'ma get mine
Black Thought from the legendary 5th Don

Yo, who got they fingers on the carousel, locked in position?
It's got to be my man, the turntable tactician
You all in a hush, silent, tryin' to listen
You wanna feel this realness, that reads spittin'

It got ya head, splits ya eyes, can't stop twitchin'
The only thing that you can do is rock to the rhythm
Thought puttin' down, 'cuz he's the world reknowned
See me lickin' rhymes, rappin' like I'm firing rounds

And um, you now in tune to this infinite sound
And um, the revolution poppin' off right now
I make you raise ya fist, raise an eyebrow
Raise ya fifth, and bust it at the flag like blow

You ***k boy *****s tryin' to keep it on a hush
But Black Thought spit it 'cuz you people want the rush
You feel? That's why the audience fiend for this fix
And Krush come with the guillotine for this mix yo

Line for line, you gotta get it but a

Yo, I got that renaissance, turn of the century choke
And I'ma do the people right if y'all just give me the vote
We finna to ride, hang 'em high, Krush give me a rope
See all them porcelain chase cats gettin' ya broke

One at a time, now lets focus on who the dime
When your blade's sharp as mine and people want you to rhyme
And want you to spill, for me it's not nothin' for real
Me and my man run at your band, yo we tough on the will

He'll blow ya mind like bustin' the steel
I give the crowd somethin' to feel
This sound got the power to heal
It's like The Green Mile, now I need an hour to chill

A quarter a kill, the bird while patrolling the field
I'm puttin' rappers out cold
I done rocked from Tokyo to the North Pole
Whenever my man program the p*** code y'all receive the fist
Aiyo Krush come with the guillotine for this mix yo
