When i was little my father was famous
He was the greatest samurai in the empire
And he was the shogun's decapitator
He cut off the heads of a hundred and thirty-one lords
It was a bad time for the empire

The shogun just stayed inside his castle and he never came out
People said his brain was infected by devils
My father would come home he would forget about the killings
He wasn't scared of the shogun but the shogun was scared of him

Maybe that was the problem
Then one night the shogun sent his ninja spies to our house
They were supposed to kill my father but they didn't
That was the night everything changed

See sometimes you gotta flash 'em back
See niggaz don't know where this xxxx started
Y'all know where it came from
I'm sayin' we gonna take y'all back to the swords we bounce yo

When the mc's came
To live our their name and to perform
Some had to snort cocaine to act insane
With before pete rocked it on now gone

That the mental plane to spark the brain
With the building to be born
Yo rza flip the track with the what to guy
Check 'em check chicka icka etta uhh

Fake niggaz get blitzed
And mic bites i swing swords and cut clowns
Shit is too swift to bite you record and write it down
I flow like the blood on a murder scene like a syringe
On some loud howl xxxx to insert a fiend

But it was yo ock the shop stolen heart
Catch a swollen heart from not rollin' smart
I put mad pressure on phony wack rhymes that get hurt
Shit's played like zodiac signs on sweatshirt

That's minimum and feminine like sandals
My minimum table stacks a verse on a gamble
Energy is felt once the cards are dealt
With the impact of roundhouse kicks from black belts

That attack the mic-fones like cyclones or typhoon
I represent from midnight to high noon
I don't waste ink nigga i think
I drop megaton bombs more faster than you blink

'cause rhyme thoughts travel at a tremendous speed
Clouds of smoke of natural blends of weed
Only under one circumstance is if i'm blunted
Turn that xxxx up my clan in da front want it

When the mc's came
To live our their name and to perform
Some had to snort cocaine to act insane
With before pete rocked it on now gone

That the mental plane to spark the brain
With the building to be born
Yo rza flip the track with the what to guy
Check 'em check chicka icka etta uhh

I'm on a mission that niggaz say is impossible
But when i swing my swords they all choppable
I be the body dropper the heartbeat stopper
Child educator plus head amputator

'cause niggaz styles are old like mark 5 sneakers
Lyrics are weak like clock radio speakers
Don't even stop in my station and attack
While your plan failed hit the rail like amtrak

What the xxxx for? down by law i make law
I be justice i sentence that xxx two to four
Round the clock that state pen time check it
With the pens i be stickin' but you can't stick to crime

Came through with the wu slid off on the dl
I'm low-key like seashells i rock these bells
Now come aboard it's medina bound
Into the chamber and it's a whole different sound

It's a wide entrance small exit like a funnel
So deep it's picked up on radios in tunnels
Niggaz are fascinated how the xxxx begin
Get vaccinated my logo is branded in your skin

When the mc's came
To live our their name and to perform
Some had to snort cocaine to act insane
With before pete rocked it on now gone

That the mental plane to spark the brain
With the building to be born
Yo rza flip the track with the what to guy
Check 'em check chicka icka etta uhh
