Lyrics

[Verse 1]
EST is 1985, in KC on a bus ride
From the 56th side
Not too many knew that it was alive
But they spread it so now they tied to Technicians worldwide
[Verse 2]
Listen, tryin' to recruit is the mission, we offer you a position
Where Tech'll rule and condition your brain
To know actin' the fool is the vision, Caribou Lou is tradition
And the way to be true to your livin' is strange
We come in peace but if you wanna be dumb and beef
A gun'll summon heat, wanna be young and speak
I'ma numb his beak, he's a woman, he the one and
He brung in meat for the cunnin' beast
Hit a lung and seep dung and sleep long, in deep
Tongue full of gum and teeth, yo
It's when a Tech-a-nician do the sets who diss the crew
The best thing is for you to let the clique see who the vet is
Amidst the new seekers, wonderin' who the fuck is comin' through
These speakers, never forget it, the medic for you tweakers
Ahead of the medicine developed to soothe creatures
You're pathetic if you're no believer 'cause we are all energetic and eager
Come alive when you walkin' side-by-side with me
Fly the skies and get high with me, on this ride you won't collide
Just confide in me, try denyin' me, ye dyin' violently
That's the way, you fakers got to pay
My people quick to spray and buck a demon till they lay
But if he breathin' it must've been an angel by his side like Sadé
Never would've been the case because my clique ready to ride when I say
[Verse 3]
Technicians, others ain't got a clue, they comin' through suspicious
(We do the shit we do)
'Cause if you not with the crew convertin' you's our mission
(If you're a born Technician put your ammunition and your hands up in the sky)
This is a strong addiction, live to this if you're Technician till you die
[Verse 4]
My people all know what a Bianca is, most of 'em want to diss
Don't come unless you don't want the biz
It ain't nothing but real women in my circle, not them phony chicks
That don't know what I mean when I say, "Elbow macaroni, bitch"
They know what I'm drinkin', the ladies lookin' right
They know what I'm thinkin', the babies even hyped, the oldies be geekin'
The red, the black and white, the soldiers we seekin'
All of my peoples' here, Tech and the bidness are gonna equal fear
'Cause I'm 'bout to bubble and get the evil peers
Out of my life I never wanna see you here, yeah
Bitch, you ain't a Technician
You don't know the pledge but you said that you listen
Guess you misunderstood the shit, huh?
Disrespect that Tech, trick, get done
The moral of the story is we warriors
Notorious for the hordes of 'core, ready to roar, "He's glorious"
Technician Number 1, the mission leave 'em sprung with the tongue
And if you listen, it's a gun
[Verse 5]
Technicians, others ain't got a clue, they comin' through suspicious
(We do the shit we do)
'Cause if you not with the crew convertin' you's our mission
(If you're a born Technician put your ammunition and your hands up in the sky)
This is a strong addiction, live to this if you're Technician till you die
[Verse 6]
We are family, that Tech shit, we on it
We could be damaging to all you punks that want it
We bring calamity, that snake and bat, we flaunt it
Unforgettable, Tech's formidable, reppin' the Mid, the MO
Bitch, we run it
You gotta know that I really mean it when I said that I was gonna
Make the mainstream go me
Still rappin' like I'm poppin' a pillow off of the killer
More like I was takin' Molly in '03
We can take anybody, we so deep, I bet that you got us on your street
I'm tryna find a spot that's big enough so all of my people can meet
[Verse 7]
Technicians, others ain't got a clue, they comin' through suspicious
(We do the shit we do)
'Cause if you not with the crew convertin' you's our mission
(If you're a born Technician put your ammunition and your hands up in the sky)
This is a strong addiction, live to this if you're Technician till you die
