Roots - Respond React lyrics

rate me

Its jazzy, hip-hop hanging in my head heavy <br />

Malik said "Riq, you know the planet ain't ready, for the half" <br />

Boy, we comin' with the action pack <br />

On some Dundee shit representin' the outback <br />

(Yo, we do it like this) All the way live from <br />

2-1-5 <br />

(You witnessin' the fifth dynasty family click) All the way live from 2-1-5 <br />

(Across the map, one time for your...) All the way live from 2-1-5 <br />

(Its time to react to respond to react to respond) All the way live from <br />

2-1-5 <br />

<br />

Chorus: <br />

We setting it from south-side pushing this up north <br />

From Illadelphian reps to fly points across the map <br />

To bring it back to respond-react to this <br />

Bring it back to respond-react <br />

<br />

Verse One: Bad Lieutenant/ M-Ill-itant <br />

<br />

Master gettin cash in an orderly fashion <br />

The attractive assassin, blastin the devil trespassin <br />

Message to the fake nigga Flash-in <br />

Slow-up Oc before you get dropped <br />

And closed like a caption <br />

Fractional kids don't know the time for action <br />

Styles got the rhythm that of an Anglo-Saxon <br />

Round of applause then avalanche a clappin <br />

*PLOW* that's what happen, now what's your reaction <br />

We heavyweight traction, pro-pornographin <br />

Specialize in science and math and <br />

Original black man <br />

Vocal toe to toe impeccable splittin your backs son <br />

Bustin thoughts that pierce your mental defense <br />

Rippin your sacks and <br />

Simple as addition and subtraction <br />

Black Thought- the infinite relaxed one <br />

Shorties say they love it with a passion <br />

Bring the international charm <br />

See a squad I harass <br />

REACT <br />

You best adapt when I sling this rap <br />

Another chapter <br />

Before when I have to trap ya <br />

Map your whole path out <br />

Go get your crowd so we can clap out <br />

I drive down streets and take back route- positionin <br />

When I'm in your system like glycerin <br />

Fans listenin , from Michigan to Switzerland <br />

Malik be blitzed again- on the station with the discipline <br />

Solicitin , sometimes illicit or explicit with it then <br />

From the deep end where the hills are steep <br />

Nobody cares to speak- a land where life is cheap <br />

The street mentality mixed with the intellect <br />

Niggas rebellious <br />

Personality, hell where I dwell is well <br />

My man caught a shot to the stomach <br />

Bodies are found down in the cellars <br />

Now who want it <br />

Confronted by these dusty blunted- cats <br />

Who act like they don't know that the fact is that they're being hunted <br />

A process of elimination <br />

Activate your mind with the stimulation <br />

Enter your zone with penetration <br />

I've seen more horror than Brahm Stroker <br />

Strip your broad a play poker, then drink mocha <br />

The sometimes socializer <br />

You woke the wiser <br />

The joke despiser <br />

Dealin with the Roots vocalizer <br />

I stampede your style <br />

Up in your flesh from south Philly to west <br />

I'll compile the bless <br />

Chorus: 2X <br />

<br />

<br />

Verse Two: Black Thought/ Malik B <br />

<br />

Hey yo, I'm just a lyricist <br />

The beat pimp <br />

A chemist of the hemp <br />

The I'll Philly resident <br />

That's far from hesitant <br />

Never benevolent <br />

Corrupt like a president <br />

But poetically prevalent <br />

Cooler than peppermint <br />

Far from temporary son I'm very permanent <br />

The lieutenant for niggas talkin bout represent <br />

Hittin m.c.'s like an intoxicant <br />

No doubt, it's obviously evident I get bent <br />

Sent to prevent <br />

Monopoly is my intent <br />

The means is what I invent <br />

This mental murder pay the rent <br />

Lyrically I'm the dominant ingredient <br />

The swift extravagant <br />

Smooth lubricant <br />

Down with the M-the-Ill-itant <br />

(ch-ch-ch...) That's the sound of the dynasty chant <br />

We surround your camp <br />

Assumin the war stance <br />

And bring it from the chest <br />

Now let's dance <br />

M-ILL-ITANT <br />

Feel the fifth Gorilla chant <br />

Ya'll talk about bodies <br />

But you would not kill a ant <br />

My skill is amp <br />

Would peel a nigga like a stamp <br />

Caliber is of Excallibur now you be damp <br />

When I operate a crop or copulate my game <br />

I make a womb populate and 2-1-5th is this stock of hate <br />

Peep the logistics <br />

Slump your squad of misfits <br />

They all get they wrists slit <br />

Blast your ass if you insist it <br />

Leave no trace so there's no trace for ballistics <br />

In particular I've got that extracurricular <br />

Turn your soul and body to statistics <br />

Slip and they vicking ya <br />

Squad in the stash who could be stcking ya <br />

Harass your police commissionar <br />

Don't like chicks with weaves talking bout "I need conditioner" <br />

That shits deader than niggas with a mortioner <br />

A gymnanza(?!) <br />

Up in your flesh like plasma <br />

Take away your last breathe when you got asthma <br />

Then meet Bad Lieu down at the plaza <br />

Hip-hop extravaganza <br />

Tell your man I slump him with a stanza <br />

Now who's the boss not Tony Danza <br />

P.O. took a piss test it came out not clean <br />

My force not green but the force is obscene <br />

Brody with my man Miz-Moose and Hakeem <br />

My squad from deuce-four up the West Oak Lane <br />

All the way to Takahwana and Frankfurt they know the name <br />

It's like that... M-Ill-itant <br />

<br />

Chorus to fade
