{in the first section Tyson speaks over the "Rip Rock" instrumental}

[Mike Tyson]

Yo Canibus man, whassup man?

I caught you on that cut with Wyclef man - you were boomin

But I caught these foul slouch-ass niggaz, youknowmean?

Talkin foul bout you the other night

on the corner of the boulevard man - I wasn't with that

but I ain't know you well enough to defend you though right?

But you seem like you got true game

But.. peep game man, they've been playin me all my life man

You know I won the title a couple of times, did right, youknowmean?

But they can't hurt us man, we gon' do it

Get up in this ring man put on these gloves

Let me show how to handle yourself man

You don't got nobody out there with you

I gots to show you man, get up in there move that head man

Come on to me man, but when you come man you gotta come for blood man

Come up to me man, come on bust that nigga whole man

Niggaz talkin that shit about you..

Hey Mike Tyson here speakin with the Canibus man over here

Yo Canibus your main objective out here is to do nuttin but

eat eat eat eat MC's, for lunch, breakfast

Hey man they been playin me all my life man

You know I won the title a couple of times did right

No but they can't hurt us man

We gonna do it, get up in this ring man, put on these gloves

Let me show you how to handle this yourself man

[Canibus]

So I'ma let the world know the truth, you don't want me to shine

You studied my rhyme, then you laid your vocals after mine

That's a bitch move, somethin that a homo rapper would do

So when you say that you +Platinum+, you only droppin +Clue's+

I studied your background, read the book that you wrote

Researched your footnotes, bout how you used to sniff coke

Frontin like a drug-free role model, you disgust me

I know bitches that seen you smoke weed recently

You walk around showin off your body cause it sells

Plus to avoid the fact that you ain't got skills

Mad at me cause I kick that shit real niggaz feel

While 99% of your fans wear high heels

From Ice-T to Kool Moe Dee to Jay-Z

Now you wanna fuck with me? You must be crazy!

You drippin with wack juice, and you can't get it off

You betta be prepard to finish what you start, nigga

[Referee]

Hey hey hey hey, you just hold it right there

(Yo, get off me man)

We got an illegal low blow on the fighter in the blue trunks

(Yo, yo get the fuck off me man)

If I see one more of those, you're outta here brotha

(Yo get out my way man, yo he started this shit)

You understand? (Fuck you!)

You'll be disqualified (I'll bite that nigga again!)

Stop bein a bitch (Get the fuck off me man!)

We came to see a fight

[Mike Tyson]

Yo Canibus man you gotta hit harder than that man

You don't want no bitch ass niggaz hangin out wit me man

We're warriors man, when we go into battle

we come out, or don't come out at all

[Canibus]

Yo

You better give me the respect that I deserve or I'ma take it by force

Blast you with a 45 colt, make you summersault

Shock you with a couple hundred thousand volt thunderbolts

Before you wanted a war, now you wanna talk

It's about who strikes the hardest, not who strikes first

That's why I laugh when I hear that wack ass verse

That shit was the worse [pause] rhyme I ever heard in my life

cause the greatest rapper of all time died on March 9th

God bless his soul rest in peace kid

It's because of him now at least I know +What Beef+ is

It's not what I would call this (nah) see this is somethin different

A faggot nigga tryin ta make a livin offa dissin

Somebody that he gotta know is betta than him

but he feelin himself, cause he got more cheddar than him

Well lemme tell you somethin, you might got mo' cash then me

But you ain't got the skills to eat a nigga's ass like me

And if you really want to show off, we can get it on

Live in front of the cameras on your own sitcom

I'll let you kick a verse, fuck it, I'll let you kick em all

I'll even wait for the studio audience to applaud [cheers]

Now watch me rip the tat from your arm

Kick you in the groin, stick you for your Vanguard award

In front of your mom your 1st, 2nd and 3rd born

Make your wife get on the horn call Minister Farrakhan

So he could persuade me to squash it, I saw naw he started it

He forgot what a hardcore artist is

A hardcore artist is a dangerous man, such as myself

trained to run 20 miles in soft sand

On or off land, programmed to kick hundreds of bars off hand

from a lost and forgotten land, you done did it man

You done spitted some wack shittit

And probably thought that because it's been a minute I'll forget it

Fuck that, cause like Common and Cube I see +The Bitch In Yoo+

and I'ma make the world see it too, motherfucker

[Referee]

Ladies and gentelman, we have a new lyrical weight champion

By second round knock out, 3 minutes and 40 seconds Can-i-bus

[Mike Tyson]

Yo Canibus man, you movin like Mike Tyson Jr. man

You in and out and you're agile with you flow man

But dig right, you got you gotta eat man, that's your name Canibus

Your whole agenda is to eat these niggaz man

They have no business to be in the same stage with you

holdin the mic with you

But dig right...

But dig right...

But dig right...

But dig right...

Hey Mike Tyson here speakin with the Canibus man over here

Yo Canibus your main objective out here is to do nuttin but

eat eat eat eat MC's for lunch, breakfast, dinner

That's your agenda baby

Your your agenda to to consume them

Their whole existance, they can't exist in your presence

The Canibus is here to rule forever
