[00:06.340] |
You ready? Let's go! |
[00:11.690] |
|
[00:14.750] |
Yeah, for those of you that |
[00:18.870] |
want to know what we're all about |
[00:20.670] |
It's like this y'all (c'mon!) |
[00:22.110] |
This is ten percent luck |
[00:23.850] |
Twenty percent skill |
[00:25.130] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[00:27.890] |
Five percent pleasure |
[00:29.090] |
Fifty percent pain |
[00:30.220] |
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name |
[00:33.260] |
Mike<Mike> |
[00:34.340] |
He doesn't need his name up in lights |
[00:35.710] |
He just wants to be heard whether it's the beat or the mic |
[00:38.700] |
He feels so unlike everybody else, alone |
[00:41.740] |
In spite of the fact that some people |
[00:43.860] |
still think that they know him |
[00:44.560] |
But fuck em' |
[00:45.540] |
He knows the code |
[00:46.550] |
It's not about the salary |
[00:47.650] |
It's all about reality and makin' some noise |
[00:50.030] |
Makin' the story |
[00:51.250] |
Makin' sure his clique stays up |
[00:52.890] |
That means when he puts it down Tak's pickin' it up(Let's go!) |
[00:55.630] |
|
[00:56.220] |
Who the hell is he anyway? |
[00:57.560] |
He never really talks much |
[00:59.080] |
Never concerned with status but still leavin' them star struck |
[01:01.590] |
Humbled through opportunities given to him despite the fact |
[01:04.400] |
That many misjudge him because he makes a livin' from writin raps |
[01:07.500] |
Put it together himself, now the picture connects |
[01:09.880] |
Never askin for someone's help, to get some respect |
[01:12.460] |
He's only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reach |
[01:15.920] |
And now when it all unfolds, the skill of an artist |
[01:18.210] |
|
[01:18.820] |
This is twenty percent skill |
[01:20.030] |
Eighty percent fear |
[01:21.120] |
Be a hundred percent clear 'cause Ryu is ill |
[01:23.920] |
Who would've thought that he'd be the one to set the west in flames |
[01:27.090] |
And I heard him wreckin' with The Crystal Method,Name Of The Game |
[01:29.740] |
Came back dropped Megadef, took 'em to church |
[01:32.450] |
I like 'bleach, man, why you have the stupidest verse? |
[01:35.340] |
This dude is the truth, now everybody be givin' him guest spots |
[01:38.670] |
His stock's through the roof I heard he fuckin' with S-Dot! |
[01:40.810] |
|
[01:41.210] |
This is ten percent luck |
[01:42.740] |
Twenty percent skill |
[01:44.180] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[01:46.660] |
Five percent pleasure |
[01:48.420] |
Fifty percent pain |
[01:49.740] |
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name |
[01:51.990] |
|
[01:52.350] |
They call him Ryu, he’s sick |
[01:53.690] |
And he’s spittin fire with Mike |
[01:55.160] |
Got him out the dryer he's hot |
[01:56.440] |
Found him in Fort Minor with Tak |
[01:57.890] |
What a fuckin’ nihilist porcupine |
[01:59.670] |
He's a prick, he's a cock |
[02:00.750] |
The type women want to be with |
[02:02.390] |
And rappers hope he get shot |
[02:03.830] |
Eight years in the makin' |
[02:05.140] |
Patiently waitin to blow |
[02:06.590] |
Now the record with Shinoda's takin' over the globe |
[02:09.260] |
He's got a partner in crime his shit is equally dope |
[02:11.600] |
You won't believe the kind of shit that comes out of this kid's throat |
[02:15.320] |
|
[02:15.540] |
Tak |
[02:16.540] |
He's not your everyday on the block |
[02:17.750] |
He knows how to work with what he's got |
[02:19.490] |
Makin' his way to the top |
[02:20.720] |
He often gets a comment on his name |
[02:22.340] |
People keep askin him was it given at birth |
[02:24.750] |
Or does it stand for an acronym? |
[02:26.370] |
No, he's livin' proof |
[02:27.900] |
Got him rockin' the booth |
[02:28.940] |
He'll get you buzzin' quicker than a shot of vodka with juice |
[02:32.070] |
Him and his crew are known around as one of the best |
[02:34.850] |
Dedicated to what they do and give a hundred percent |
[02:37.240] |
|
[02:37.840] |
Forget Mike |
[02:38.470] |
Nobody really knows how or why he works so hard |
[02:41.560] |
It seems like he's never got time |
[02:43.210] |
Because he writes every note and he writes every line |
[02:45.940] |
And I've seen him at work when that light goes on in his mind |
[02:48.670] |
It’s like a design is written in his head every time |
[02:51.450] |
Before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme |
[02:54.350] |
And those motherfuckers he runs with, those kids that he signed |
[02:57.710] |
Ridiculous, without even tryin', how do they do it? |
[02:59.940] |
|
[03:00.380] |
This is ten percent luck |
[03:01.640] |
Twenty percent skill |
[03:03.020] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[03:06.050] |
Five percent pleasure |
[03:07.520] |
Fifty percent pain |
[03:08.800] |
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name |
[03:11.340] |
|
[03:11.790] |
This is ten percent luck |
[03:13.080] |
Twenty percent skill |
[03:14.530] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[03:17.340] |
Five percent pleasure |
