Ruggedness

"The ruggedness, the ruggedness" (4X)

"Lyrical terrorists"

[Iriscience]

I bring High-towers like Ron

til my powers are drawn

then let raw surges like cubes of Energon

Which Judas emcee ??? double-cross like Exxon

I put a hex on, science needed to catch wrecks gone

The mic's a wand so when I rap you see stars

Kicking lines in your face that'll make you see bars

incarcerated, increasin' heart rate like a novice

gettin' faded and today's your start date

The stage is getting flooded and your ass is shark bait

cuz you're bleeding

You are transmitting but I'm not receiving

I used to be in 3D now I'm 4D like ?fairlane?

Iristyle be high and pressurized like an airplane

Trained I'm precise to make the crowd tingle

You finally get to kick it and miss like Ray Finkle

All righty then, spin emcees like frisbees

and got verbal animation on lock like Walt Disney

"The ruggedness, the ruggedness" (8X)

[Evidence]

Yo, my rhymes are always up to par with the chorus

Chop rappers down like trees in the rain forest

If hip-hop was baseball I'd win the Cy Young

for throwing raps more harder than pitches by Nolan Ryan

Right down the center I enter like The Dragon

with fire in my eyes watch the thermometer rise

Intellectual battle rhymer in cadence to the millisecond

in consecutive(s) victories with ease (back to back)

[Iriscience]

Hey, you aint Ultramag - seckle with the Ego Trippin'

and you aint De La - seckle with the Ego Trippin' Two (too)

Dilated People ripping crew kids students that are truant

I get up in minds like Xavier's in mutants

While you should get smart about chaos and *control*

your style is *old* with no *soul* like Bob *Dole*

Even seeming simpletons like Clinton are rhoades scholars

My style is seldom seen like the ??? on the ???

[Evidence]

Yes,

I swarm like insects, I get wreck when in sex

My rhymes shine like windex

from index to-uh glossary (glossary)

front to back cover to cover

When the snare cracks over the phat track, I hover

on hydroplane like tires on ice

Yo I break it down to the raw elements like rice

My 4-4 hits lethal to your jaw, without one flaw

I represent ????? like ?????

I roll like Nyquil put heads to bed (good night)

No lead, straight up gems in my toolshed (thats right)

I grab a few and a couple more for backup

some slow raps for new jacks for when they speed the track up

Don't let me pull the pin at the sport your in

you better play the opposite of a terrapin

The air we in's too thin for the both of us to win

You test me the in the day and then I eat you up for dinner

Ruggedness

Yes

Dilated, Dilated

nothing less

Dilated, Dilated

yes, yes

soulbrothers, mad sweet

yes, yes

nothing less ...
