The Last Line of Defense

The last line of defense

[evidence]

Feel the pressure...

Yo you better plan ahead, gather your thoughts

I'm not gonna be the one wit no chair when the music stops

The orange agent, has just moved to your block

And gone headhunting, blame herbie hancock

Hard to get at, yo vocally serious

Never stress myself out, treat songs like interludes

Drum patterns are primative

Evidence, the derivitive

Of what the late '80s and early '90s had to give

Dilated peoples, far from tentative

Caress this microphone, stay home and take your sedative

Yo I know our platform is built on strong foundation

My last line of defense, I keep a ace in the hole

On patrol, so balanced with no topic

The weatherman lands at high noon, ready to drop shit

Could freestyle better or maybe rap faster

But soundclash wit us (don't do that)

You flirt with disaster

Evidence of the war [inspectah deck]

Don't ever lose sight of this fact [defari]

The last line of defense

Evidence when it comes to blood and rap, it's lyrical combat [defari]

(back up in it)

The sagittarius with flows in various

Types of pipes, and green to keep me hype

At thirty-thousand feet, yo my heart starts poundin

So I rarely fly, intentional grounding

Make my rounds to towns, kill em in order

I'm equipped to blow shows and turn kids out wit corners

(with ease) I flow slow like growth on palm trees

And set trends more than femmes could split ends

I'm makin power moves

In fact, as I speak now

Do my best to re-enforce the motto milk the cow

Make that dough for too many's the main concern

I say make the right music, then your money's earned

Share the wealth with babu and iriscience

My death might be a tragedy, my life will be a triumph

Go focus on the star, the man who won the heisman

Trophy would be broken, forget it, credit the linesman

Evidence of the war

Don't ever lose sight of this fact

The last line of defense

When it comes to blood and rap, it's lyrical combat

The last line of defense

Evidence don't ever lose sight of this fact

The last line of defense

When it comes to blood and rap, it's lyrical combat

The last line of defense

Yo critique my mic techniques live, I carthage this

You didn't think I had what it takes in my esophagus?

A cat like you, yo your show sounds hot for real

Of course it does, standin still

Yo I dig your little pace, you're walkin forth at best

At that rate, on tour dates, I hope you never run outta breath

I'm evidence, mike peretta, head commander

Both of my names like gary shandling's larry sanders

When I say now, this will take out in an instant

Wherever I go, my caravan goes/gogh's like vincent

But ev at princeton, they won't follow good

So I shock this microphone and split a tree trunk to hollow wood

The last line of defense, set your prescedence

Set your standard, make it known you own your throne

Yo, the last is when you hit em just enough to leave a gash

In time, the wound will heal, rest assure they'll make it known

Who threw the heat and felt the blast

Who gave the answers and what questions are asked

Are your favorite artists boring you? that shit don't make sense

Call evidence the last line of defense

Evidence of the war

Don't ever lose sight of this fact

The last line of defense

Evidence when it comes to blood and rap, it's lyrical combat

The last line of defense

Evidence of the war

Don't ever lose sight of this fact

The last line of defense

When it comes to blood and rap, it's lyrical combat

The last!
