Mars Ill

    Continues after the ad

    Yeah, we got something else to say, believe it or not
    We don't claim to represent each element of hip-hop
    I'm eloquent on the mic, flip language, that's what I do
    Enlighten fresh subject matter and deliver it straight to you
    In the vein of Pharaoh and Chuck D, I still feel lucky
    To be able to share the vision and describe the way it struck me
    Interrupting the senseless noise that ClearChannel services
    Resurgence and revival to defeat this sense of worthlessness
    And Dust

    (scratches)

    Continues after the ad

    Well Dust completes the thought that I began
    His words are drums, he's talking now, but can you understand?
    Well I can, and there's a legion of fans that get it also
    His audiomatic scratch patterns are all pro
    Hit your torso full force, a course of future things to hear
    Press your head against the speaker. Catch this double-feature
    Make believers out of fence-riders and critics in one verse
    But, yo, I got something to clear up first
    See MC's are the mouthpiece and always the first to give props
    To every person that's ever windmilled or knows how to uprock
    But the b-boys could care less about the way you flow or rhyme
    They don't even listen to any rap after 1989
    So take the time. Take a minute and take a good look
    They live inside the breaks and stay addicted to the "Good Foot"
    Should you ever meet one that says he has my album
    Take a picture for me 'cause that's rare, one in a thousand
    And graf-writers, well let's be honest
    You don't really like my music and I can't read the words you're bombing
    I mean, who am I kidding? I've seen burners that moved me
    And I like to ride the train and let the pretty colors soothe me
    But I don't vandalize, I'm afraid someone might shoot me
    And I'm available if any of y'all ever need to speak through me
    But I won't push it anymore, see I'm giving y'all some leeway
    For now, I'll speak on behalf of myself and plus my DJ...
