This is poetry in motion Try to catch on, stay close to the host And MC's try to make the road rough but I'm coastin' Ladies hear the rhymes rub 'em on like lotion Hit spots soothin', can't stop movin' Go ahead, bust a sweat and you can bet I'm still coolin' When I detain it's a brainstorm Never the same form, every brain I rained on is warm Takin' a trip through Memory Lane to Melody See if you could tell if these thoughts to fell MC's Could do you justice but you can't touch this Some kid just tried to bust this but he just missed I'm universal and much more merciful So versatile with the style it's reversible I get away even if I say a curse or two First, let me bust another verse for you Your arms too short to box with Ra, so quit You don't want no kind of conflict Or you'll get stripped as the rhyme is ripped Pick up the pieces now ain't that peace, yeah I'm hip Everything I said flows since my intro I plant a thought extend and then grow Holdin' my pen tightly it might be controversy at first When I write the chords of research Don't just take it for granted When I'm gone my mind remains a planet If I keep buildin' and teach the children So when they read in between the lines it's filled in I break to meditate, not a peep, concentrate Till I'm deep awake but not asleep At the same time risin' and advertisin' what is true Keep advised and you can stay wise and I'm untouchable Comin' over the bridge, take a peak at the skyline 'Cause that's how I shine not only when I rhyme My culture's makin' me stronger, mentally Physically I'm powerful poetry now that could be Labeled as art placed in a museum Style'll make scenery, now you see 'em Exhibit a knowledge that's packed and filled with Nothin' illiterate, it's facts I build with My mind's untouchable which means intangible Contents never dense, it's understandable I study life, so I can live it the right way No time to hear what another brother might say Why sell a capsule of crack I don't have to? I rhyme and sign million dollar contracts to Put message on records that's graced with hard bass Smugglin' microphones, this ain't Scarface Whoever talked that talk, I wanna hawk And don't try to 'Escape From New York' Cross a 110th Street lookin' for a problem It's 'Hell Up In Harlem', watch Ra solve 'em I hear the music clear as I get near The hundred and twenty fifth street Apollo Theater Take a step back when I rap I step up to you I'm untouchable Put on my thinking cap pump the track Test your reflex relax but in contact You fold and lose control, so hold your partner closer You're supposed to keep your composure But you hear the drum said go then it gets so hype It's like nitro opponents get petro Remember the trademark left by the R That's never soft or smooth, it's comin' off the hardest In effect, you could die-tect the impostor Takin' my props, Rakim is still proper I'm a prophet, you can't stop it when I drop it Everything I say, coincide with the topic Thoughts bounce around till my skull is fractured Inside my brain it's all manufactured As we go deeper it's hard to find Don't even think about it 'cause you can't read my mind It's clear so therefore you need a ear or inclined In the mind with some kind of idea for the style I'm advertisin' what is true, keep advised That you stay wise and the mind is untouchable © ERIC B AND RAKIM MUSIC INC; Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
