I'm the arsenal, I got artillery lyrics of ammo Rounds of rhythm, then I'm 'a give 'em piano Bring a bullet proof vest, nothin' to ricochet Ready to aim at the brain, now what the trigger say Tempos trifle, felt like a rifle, massage 'n' melodies Might go right through Simultaneously like an Uzi, nothin' can bruise me Lyrics let up when lady say don't lose me So reload quickly, and you better hit me While I'm lettin' this fifi get wit' me You steppin' with 007, better make it snappy No time to do your hair, baby Brothers are bustin' at me Beats and bullets pass me, none on target They want the R hit, but watch the God get Quicker, the tongue is the trigger 'Cause I'm real fast Let off some rhythm at 'em Let 'em feel the blast Penetrate at a crazy rate, this ain't no thirty-eight Hit 'em at point blank range and watch 'em radiate Runnin' out of ammunition, I'm done wit' 'em You ask me how I did 'em, I let the rhythm hit 'em I push a power that's punishable prepare to be a prisoner The hit man is the brother wit' charisma Showing you that I have powerful paragraphs Followers will become leaders but without a path Ya mentally paralyzed, crippled ya third eye Rhymes are blurred, then it occurred that you heard I Reduced the friction, with crucifixion Let loose the mix then boost the piston Eric hit 'em with' some of that cut like a lumberjack And me gettin' hit back, it won't be none of that I'm untouchable, you see me in 3-D When I let the rhythm hit another M.C. Lyrics made of lead enters your head Then eruptions of a mass production Will spread when Music is louder, full of gunpowder Microphone machinery when I see a crowd of Party people pumpin' their fist like this Ya hide in the back thinkin' that I might miss But the R is accurate plus I'm packed up with Educated punch lines that I have to hit Whatever I aim at I line 'em up Ya body is weak feel with pain That time is up You been hit with somethin' different, isn't it? Rakim is gonna radiate, and nothing's equivalent Nothin' can harm me, why try to bar me You couldn't come around to rob with a army You'll get wrecked by the architect So respect 'em, I disconnect 'em, soon as I inject 'em With radiation, put 'em by the basement Bust his chest open, bash his face in Let it split 'em Since he brought his main man wit' 'em He ask me how I did 'em I let the rhythm hit 'em Let it hit 'em Dance floor's dangerous, packed in like a briefcase Rhythm with real rough rhyme beats with deep bass Girls with tight pants, maybe they might dance Tonight if the Rs on the mic there's a slight chance The crowd is crucial, M.C.'s grounds are neutral Now that you're here, let me introduce you Get ready I'm hard read like graffiti but steady Science I drop is real heavy Radiant energy, that'll be the penalty Touch the third rail on the pain of remedy The prescription's one every hour, now it's a havoc If ya need another hit from the freestyle fanatic Attention, follow directions real close Keep out of reach of children, beware of overdose Too many milligram but what made a iller jam My rhyme is the rhythm of thoughts that kill a man Ideas for the ear to fear, might split 'em He'll never forget 'em, he'll rest in peace wit' 'em At least when he left he'll know what hit 'em The last breath of the words of death was the rhythm

10th round and still catching that beat down So I retreat back to my old stomping ground Regroup and lounge, bring on a couple of pounds And make plans to create the raw, homegrown sounds Without love and support, I might come up short But I dare not resort, to the low-life sport Young bucks nowadays, even kids my own age, Making front page, by getting locked in the cage Pumping, self-destruction and self-reduction Souls get sucked into the evil corruption The odds are against me and the world won't present to me Bad thoughts on my mind but I won't let it tempt me Organized confusion, negative illusion I throw up my guard to combat intrusion Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Now if I worry too much about all my have-nots I might not recognize just what I've got I've got control of my soul and I've gotta firm hold And if I keep on holding, I'ma reach my goals When I'm walking through the streets, I see all sorts B.I.G. wasn't lying about them drugs and sports Gotta keep my head up and everything is alright Cuz if I want to get this cash, I've got to be game-tight Baby girl is at home and she's screaming "Daddy" Momma don't know, just might think I'm out Pimping in a nice Caddy but it ain't like that Trying to keep that rogue status from off my back So when the loot come through, I do what I gotta do Cuz indeed I'm Jungle Brother, just to stay true blue Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) JBeez is the initial, gotta keep it official Ripping up the game plan and send it off like a missile Business is intact, now we come back strapped So if something go down, we rearrange contracts Coming right and exact to take your mental out the shack Dunk your cookie in my milk and let it soak in my rap On the mic I talk about the blight to reach new heights Put up a fight with everything in sight that blocks my light Label my generation X marks the spot we make it hot We don't stop, to bust back, we just keep Busting them shots, bulletproof brain cells The name spells out success That remind you of the place of where the JBeez rest Stay black and rhyming 'til the day that I'm dying Death defying , shifty eyeing, and God I'm relying Press up my import, make a million or more Keep the radio rocking, fill up the dance floor When we come to the jam, No glissening no gimmicks Break it off on your right, see my style has no limits Handle B.I. like a true blue jungle G.I. Make the ladies reply with the wink of an eye Rhyme writing, counter lighting MCs like this Make hits for competition like slitting your wrists Each sequel's so lethal that no other can equal Spark it up for the jam but rock it on for the people Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Cuz I'm a Jungle Brother (Jungle Brother) True Blue (True Blue) Every day, all day, it goes down like this

Flash that buttery gold, jittery zeitgeist Wither by the watering hole, what a patrol What are we to Heart Huckabee, art fuckery suddenly Not enough young in his lung for the water wings Colorfully vulgar poacher, out of mulch Like, "I'ma pull the pulse out a soldier and bolt" Sign of the time we elapse When a primate climb up a spine and attach Eye for an eye, but the bog life swamps and vines They get a rise out of frogs and flies So when a dogfight's hog-tied prize sort of costs a life The mouths water on a fork and knife And the allure isn't right No score on a war-torn beach Where the cash cow's actually beef Blood turns wine when it leak for police Like, "That's not a riot; it's a feast, let's eat!" And I will remember your name and face On the day you are judged by the funhouse cast And I will rejoice in your fall from grace With a cane to the sky, like, "None shall pass" None shall pass Now, if you never had a day a snow cone couldn't fix You wouldn't relate to the rogue vocoder blitz How he spoke through a NoDoz motor on the fritz 'Cause he wouldn't play rollover fetch like a bitch And express no regrets, though he isn't worth a homeowner's piss To the jokers who pose by the glitz Sign of the swine in the swarm When a king is a whore who comply and conform Miles outside of the eye of the storm With a siphon to lure out a prize and award While avoiding the vile and bizarre that is violence and war True blue triumph is more Like, "Wait, let him snake up out of the centerfold Let it break the walls of Jericho, ready, go" Sat where the old, cardboard city folk Swap tales with heads, like every other penny throw And I will remember your name and face On the day you are judged by the funhouse cast And I will rejoice in your fall from grace With a cane to the sky, like, "None shall pass" None shall pass (funky break) None shall pass Okay, woke to a grocery list, goes like this Duty and death; anyone object, come stand in the way You could be my little Snake River Canyon today And I ran with a chain of commands And a jetpack strapped where the backstab lands if it can and Sign of the vibe in the crowd When I cut a belly open to find my climb out That's quite a bit of gusto he muster up To make a dark horse rush, like, "Enough's enough!" It must've struck a nerve so they huff and puff 'Til all the king's men fluster and clusterfuck And it's a beautiful thing To my people who keep an impressive wingspan Even when the cubicle shrink You got to pull up the intruder by the root of the weed N.Y. chew through the machine And I will remember your name and face On the day you are judged by the funhouse cast And I will rejoice in your fall from grace With a cane to the sky, like, "None shall pass" None shall pass None shall pass
