"there comes a time-"

Hi-tek, who we rockin wit?

"in every young mans life when-"

That's right we rockin with the best

"he must go out into the world"

Ya ya ya yo yo

I don't just spit, i hauck loogies on these emcee floozies

Y'all beggars can't afford to be choosy

Wanna bubble like jacuzzis, act bouigey, you watchin to many movies

These cats is fruity and got it mixed up like smoothies

Who are we? yours truly, fist in the air like huey

Smoke 'em one-by-one like lucy's, then we skate like 'ooty

Just because yur rhymes is booty don't mean you "the shit"

Yo my style is universal, i get around like orbit

I got this all up in my veins, so fuck what you sayin

Your stuck in the same frame of mind, ain't no duckin my rain,

When it's times for storms to brew, i'm _warning_ you like notorious

Before we bust, i won't be courteous,

Even if ya moms is in the audience, i'm still the goriest,

Road warrior, whose story is more glorious than euphoria

And you got it all up in you, and ain't nobody stoppin you

If you don't believe us you could check out how we rock for you

Can't stop, don't stop

Rockin to the rhythem cuz i

I get down and (brooklyn)

I get down and (to put it down)

I get down and i (like uni)

I get down (the uptown)

Gets down and sha-na-na

Can't stop, don't stop

Rockin to the rhythem cuz i

I get down and (cincinnati)

I get down and (madtown)

I get down and (detroit)

I get down and (chicago)

Ah ah ah, sha-na-na

Kweli, that's me, the king, the emcee

Rhyme, get mine on the t-o-p

Can another emcee ever fuck with me?

(hell no!) "y'all niggas tickle me like elmo"

Yo i got hip-hop on deadlock

You wanna pose like models, you catchin headshots

My roots extend to bedrock i stay grounded

The perfect balance, i found it

And i got everybody feelin it

My aura shine like ice and ain't nobody stealin it

Ain't no need to say "run your jewels" when i'm revealin it (true)

And droppin it, on your stupid ass and not concealin it (put it on 'em)

Cats want you in the dark, no switch that

In fact them cats want you in the pitch black

Where the light switch at? this shit's wack

You try to get some "get back," that's how a bitch act

So sit back and observe these gentlemen

With that melanin, we see through the swine like gelatin

So never question my relevance, manifestin all elements

Take hip-hop and develop it, by injectin intelligence

Wackness, you don't just smell of it, you reek in it

We stay feakin it, so the title we keepin it

Hi-tek is the best kept secret since diamond d

Kweli consider me the opitimy of emcee

So you know what that mean to me - eternally we stand out,

And make them other dudes look like scenery

"won't stop"

"doin it..real"

[havoc (mobb deep)] "hip-hop..."

Cuz we can't stop, don't stop

Rockin to the rhythem cuz i

I get down and (zimbabwe)

I get down and (nigeria)

I get down and (in japan)

I get down and (and cuba gets down)

Sha-na-na (and jamaica gets down)

Its the reflection eternal ('ternal)

To universal for rehearsal

No commercials, still we make shit pop like kernals

From quinn shore to myrtle

Whether you stay sober or more pissy than a urinal,

My illness is terminal, it's disgustin

The way we be, shuttin down the function

I make my name end any emcee discussion (who?)

Outta whose whips more fatter, who rock the most ice

While my subject matter shatter your whole concept of nice

You can look throughout history books to see whose liver

I'm prehistoric, got the eye of the sabertooth tiger too

Rip into the flesh of the track,

Counterattack before you act with insight

I see clear you blind as a bat

Dwellin in caves, tellin the slaves what'chu think they wanna hear

I swear, my aunt told me the definition of fear is,

'fuck everything and run,' that's what you did

But the party just begun and we rockin 'til we see the sun

Can't stop

"make a choice"

Don't stop

"brooklyn, new york city"

Won't stop

"chicago"

Cuz i, i get down and (everybody)

I get down and..

Can't stop

"cincinnati!"

Don't stop

"l.a."

Yo we won't stop

"southeast to west-"

Cuz i, get down and

Get down and

Get down and

Can't stop, don't stop

Rockin to the rhythem cuz i

I get down and (atlanta gets down)

I get down and (l.a. get down)

I get down and (illadelph get down, and the bay)

It's like sha-na-na

Can't stop..
