Something Great Lyrics

Verse 1:

Worry about yaself, get off of my Di-Dick

You think your shit is iller than mine, well then spit it

Surprised nobody in this room when ya didn't

Takin out you suckers and you don't know how I did it

Tryin to test me cause he don't know what I do ta

Trash MCs, I put them in the basura

They dope boys now, and they wanna flip flour
Braggin of exploits with their German Sig Saur

Their Russian AK, or their Israeli Uzi

Your beats are alright but your lyrics don't move me

Cause I don't believe you I know it's all bullshit

You talk about your weapon but I know you never pulled it

And if you pulled it I know you never clapped it

Cause if you clapped it you'd probably get your ass whipped

Get your jaw tapped quick, make you do a back flip

That's stories vivid but we know it never happened

Hook:

Put an end to the debate

Turn and walk the other way

And I ain't gotta perpetrate to take you back to 88

If I'm not the illest MC in this place

Slick Rick must be in here,

We're on to something great

When the mic is in his face

Son its pretty safe to say

By himself or with his band, He's a maverick on the stage

If I'm not the illest MC in this place

Black Thought must be in here,

We're on to something great



Verse 2:

Your revolution is over, It's nonsense

It's watered down Hennessey, it's children seeking conflict

You're not a poet, you made your living off mythology

The clones are all queued, to hear Palpatine's prophecy

Look at the mess you've made here, You should be ashamed of yourself

Your just inflaming your wealth

You're the type to get by selling lies to teenagers

And make them think it's ill to push poison on their neighbors

And kill em, your worse than a comic book villain

Example of a sucker turned hero to the children

I don't even hate you, I pity you cause you know not

What you pretend to be eventually will get your dome rocked

Come off it mate, how come you can't see it

You ain't that dude, you are not Jesus

But Jesus wasn't even Jesus

So find a new religion and get off your own penis

Hook:

No so much a man of faith,

A philosopher with taste

Take apart the Rubix cube so everybody can relate

If I'm not the illest MC in this place

KRS must be in here,

We're on to something great

Calculate the concentrate,

Pushing buttons changing fate

Check the mental of a philistine and lock in the maze

If I'm not the illest MC in this place

Rakim must be in here,

We're on to something great

Verse 3:

Change the channel for a minute;

Don't forget it when you film it

For the men women and children

Who are in and out of prison

Drowning in a pool of crimson,

Like a cavalcade of victims

We deliver penicillin,

But their only criticism is

It doesn't sound like the music in the lame clubs

Like that something I'm supposed to be ashamed of

Pardon me but you all sound like the same thug

Pusher man is selling everyone the same drug

The government is making everyone a slave cuz

They use their money to make a warrior's brain dumb

They got us all killing each other over cake crumbs

Put your gun away, have you forgotten where you came from?

Cause you and I both reside in the same slum

Where these Draconian simpletons try to tame us

Divide and conquer they did it to the slaves bro

They love when were beefing cause together we are dangerous

Hook:
Shrink the planet everyday,

Getting burn in every state

Overseas they show me love when they send communicaes

If I'm not the illest MC in this place

MF Doom must be in here,

We're on to something great

Every incident is taped,

Document the day and age

And when you read the written word it's like it's popping off the page

If I'm not the illest MC in this place

Nasty Nas must be in here,

We're on to something great


We're on to something great
(We're on to something great)
We're on to something great
(We're on to something great)
We're on to something great
(We're on to something great)
We did it out of love
Never did it cause of hate

We're on to something great
(We're on to something great)
We're on to something great
(We're on to something great)
We're on to something great
(We're on to something great)
Special blend get busy
On the Plid-id-id-id-ates
