It's About That Time

featuring BlackThought Rob O

Over the globe again from the realm of illadelph

The planet overwhelmed yo just brace yaself

Ya wanna go against me first face yaself i pose threat

To whoever within ya commonwealth the top ten

I'm crushing ya crap concoction

To the utmost examine this upclose it's shockin

Now mic droppin is only ya option

Here come the spliff scientist in the flesh have you forgotten

His excellency the most poetically inventive official hip hop shit

That's ya incentive to cop this actual fact and not the likeness

Cuz possibly clones 'd try to do it like this

Fathom this lyrically fabulous vocabulist

Hold mic like four fifth and lick shot somewhat like pete

Malik rock think not i don't smoke i just sleep drink and eat

Think pot and i want the top a vehicle that brakes

God i want the top a vehicle that brinks got composing

To the ink sock my hip hop is wild megawatts

Continue with forever exist and never stop

Yo whut up whatever ock we can thicken tha plot because

And it's time for that and it's about that time

It's time for that and it's about that time

Rob 0 it's time for that and it's about that time

Pete Rock it's time for that and it's about that time

Black Thought it's time for that and it's about that time

[Rob O]

I'm Rob 0 what, energize like a power plant blow speakers

Without an amp do things these wack rappers can't

And start again 33 rpm the hearts of men

Are cold like the steel i hold on microphones

Let my words express move men like chess

My mic will stand erect like projects

It's drastic top draft pick in this rap shit

You just a fraction caught up in tha midst of action

My catalog is current events breath the contents

What i move crowds for local events the show stopper

98 feature spot rocker rob odendo

Now every mc wanna mention me out of envy

Unofficially top of the charts i played my part

Held it down from the start you know the M.O.

Yeah yeah Rob Odendo

Chorus

[Pete Rock]

Yo it's the Capital P book rhymes of the century

Speak rap line essientially on tha M-I-C

I hold the mic appliance like science

My competitors and clients worldwide as my words coincide

With real life think twice transmit like true lies

It's televised take my manuscripts out of context

Who want next situation is complex

Stop the nonsense it's 98 time to set the record straight

Separate movers and shakers from those that hesitate

Ya featherweight name carry weight in every state

Ya name brand no frills niggaz is marinate

It's pete rock new world innovator

Crush immitators five years since the creator

It's nuff said as i paint the town red and move ahead

Chorus
