Lyrics

Hey, yo, let me be front This is real and not a stunt I'm comin' to the forefront Shovel for the rapper and clear the lane 'Cause this jam is like a tomahawk chop Teach ya, I'll never stop droppin' topics Vocal power? Yes, I got it On Central but they're tryin' to clamp it down Flag was wavin' the wrong way, so I shot it down Get down and at the same time Come up, down, this is a crime that shut us up I don't give a fuck 'Cause the words and the thoughts still hit And like I said, it's not a skit Jump another hit, yeah Ya know I don't need a drum kit Make 'em say, "Ooh, shit" The rebellion is true and legit Down, get down and clear the lane Down, get down and clear the lane Down, get down and clear the lane Down, get down, yeah The rebel, you'll never disable Defiance with the cards upon the table Pulling cards, keep the governments in check Yo, I think we need a new deck Never could trust a Philla busta The mic is like a fist and it'll bust ya With words cold hittin' with the underground And now you're checkin' out the new sound Live hit, a live pop, live rock And ya don't stop It goes on and on and on Who's a threat? C'mon, the war is on Down, get down and clear the lane Down, get down and clear the lane Down, get down and clear the lane Down, get down, clear the lane Face start droppin', our words are never safe Fightin' with your snap 'til I'm where I gotta be I challenge, don't sweat it, now don't you forget it Check me? What? Wait, you better slow down Realize I can't confine my rhyme to a beat I need cash so when I'm cool, there's never ever weak Places are fluid and diluted and complete Check me once, calm down and take a seat Strip the chains, the freedom's there But then it's gone Uh, clear the lane Uh, clear the lane Uh, clear the lane Uh, clear the lane Defiance rippin' up the south set Every time I'm grippin' the mic, it is a sound threat Resist against the suckers that bring the bass in Timmy C, bring that bass in Uh, clear the lane Uh, clear the lane Uh, clear the lane Uh, clear the lane
