featuring O.C.

Verse One:

The renassance man no gat in my hand

Episode numero uno check out the man

Spread a verse like a thesis or a virus

Open the iris nigga I'm the individual you can't get rid of

Prominent aura dominant moral islamic

Amazing phenomenon like Haley's Comet

Ya gettin headaches from this bullshit

I'm the anisthetic to cure shit

Fuck that cut up shit I be that pure shit

Expedition thoughts are truck

My mind shine like bins spinning thoughts

Bright as fuck, congruent like four sides of a square

I got a surprise in nine-eight, rappers better prepare

Timeless take every letter from the word I adverb

And put it together that nigga O.C.'s quite clever

Always and forever no one can do it better

Chorus:

Respect on the mic we in this for life

For the street thug to my brother with same blood

One love yo sound off the twenty one slug salute

Ways to display the truth

It's Pete Rock and O.C.

It's on point fella

Ain't nothing you can tell us

Word up

Verse Two:

Yo I impact the earth like a meteorite magnetic

The P.R./O.C. experiment

Serving justice when we bust this

Ya now instructed to thrust one fist in the air

Regulate the anthem for revolution prepare

For the victorous comeback of the year

Assemble the militia as insert the scripture

Lyrics for the instrumental picture

Graphic in nature respect mics I hold

Certified gold five hundred thousand sold

News flash yo it's hip-hop built ta last

Survivor of the aftermath when guns blast

Waving a white flag while you dressed in drag

Remember what I keep in the trunk of my Jag

Suprise nigga respect due when I deliver

Chorus

Verse Three:

Since day one when I came upon the scene

For this mic I fiend respect played a part before the cream

I figure respect last longer because cream come and go

I done seen five to ten and even fifteen a show and blew it

Now I know now my ill escape is real estate

No more will I make that mistake

Respect is what matters cause that shit hold weight

Word up ya gotta earn respect in ninety-eight

Rehabilitate the rap game honor our name

Hold it down to the last frame

No doubt emergency escape route

Take the easy way out if that's what you about

If not then show ya heart

Create light from dark all aboard the Ark

As the rain falis I reminisce on Biggie Smalls

And Tupac the new world is yours

80 pause for the cause

Repect due

Chorus: repeat 2X
