The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I-ya

I against I

Flesh of my flesh

And mind of my mind

Two of a kind but one won't survive

My images reflect in the enemies eye

And his images reflect in mine the same time

I-ya, I-ya

I against I

Flesh of my flesh

And mind of my mind

Two of a kind but one won't survive

Right here is where the end gon' start at

Conflict, contact 'n' combat

Fighters stand where the land is marked at

Settle the dispute about who the livest

3 word answer

Whoever survive this

Only one of us can ride forever

So you and I cant ride together

Can't live or cant die together

All we can do is collide together

So I skillfully apply the pressure

Won't stop until I'm forever, one!

A door step where death never come

Spread across time til my time never done

And I'm never done

Walk tall, why ever run?

When they move if I ever come?

Bad man never fret the war, tell'em come

General we have the stock, the mad fire burn

I-ya

I against I

Flesh of my flesh

And mind of my mind

Two of a kind but one won't survive

My images reflect in the enemies eye

And his images reflect in mine the same time

I-ya, I-ya

I against I

Flesh of my flesh

And mind of my mind

Two of a kind but one won't survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive

Reign supreme in your U-N-I

V-E-R-S-E with the sharpness

Narrow row building no space for partners

No space for drivers, no space for walkers

No space regardless

Your on my path then get off it

Hardheaded and unresponsive

Get they lives put on target with harshness

Come with the canons sparkin' they darken

Who am I? One man squadron

Ma stir the fire this time that'd snatch your tomorrow

The thousand yard spear that'll pierce through your armor

You can get it on right now if you want to

But when ya front 9 get marched through

I warned you

You know who forever belong to

I-ya, I-ya

I against I

Flesh of my flesh

And mind of my mind

Two of a kind but one won't survive

My images reflect in the enemies eye

And his images reflect in mine the same time

I-ya, I-ya

I against I

Flesh of my flesh

And mind of my mind

Two of a kind but one won't survive

My images reflect in the enemies eye

And his images reflect in mine, survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive

Survive, survive, survive, survive
