   [All]
  Yo, raise the level, bass bottom to treble
  Forever keep it ghetto
  Funk and heavy metal
  Buck the devil
  Unify the rebel
  Whistle like a kettle
  With a fly acapello
  Smooth and mellow
  Locked load and settle
  Shine through times with rhymes bright like yellow
  Taste and swallow, lead and never follow
  Break it like a bottle
  Inspire like a role model
  
  Chorus:
  [Soup]
  Say, "I am" (I am) "Somebody" (Somebody)
  
  [Akil]
  Yo, my soul, bounce rock and roll
  Tumble with the rhythm
  Heat the mic when it's cold
  I was told "Be Bold"
  Whether platinum or gold
  Keep it solid
  Do the knowledge
  Til' I reach my goal
  My hunger-pain thunder
  Lumberjack the fifth wonder
  I never slumber cuz I keep it on the under
  My post beat for people in the street
  Ghetto M-U-S-I-C (We bring the heat)
  That African soul
  Clap black power impact
  Who said ghetto rap was all about a dope sack?
  A pimp slap or a big black gatt
  Fuck around and get jacked
  For your rhymes where I live at
  Uh, I'm not a gangsta but I boogie wit beats
  No gang affiliation in my lyrics or speech
  But still I keep it straight hood-hop techniques
  South Central Fundamentals J5 emcees
  And it's on!
  
  Chorus
  
  [Chali 2na]
  Who's to say if I choose to make moves today
  Whether I win or lose or I end up on the news today
  Amuse but never confuse
  Still got dues to pay
  You abuse elegant rules when you use clichés
  
  [Marc 7]
  They got you sittin' on the edge of your seat
  
  [Chali 2na]
  Creatin' beef
  
  [Marc 7]
  Mark of the beast
  Code on the street
  Cease and decease
  
  [Chali 2na]
  Never the least
  
  [Marc 7]
  Let me repeat
  The situation gets sticky like the badge on police
  
  [Chali 2na]
  We individually driven in the beginnin'
  We winnin'
  Six men and a venomous independent decision and clear vision
  Pretendin' was never a possibility
  I got to kill it
  Because I want to be it
  The poet to win a Pulitzer Prize
  Who wouldn’t survive?
  
  [Marc 7]
  The fullest of vibes
  
  [Chali 2na]
  Deliberate surprise
  
  [Marc 7]
  When bullets the size
  
  [Chali 2na]
  Of quarters arrive
  
  [Marc 7]
  And slaughter your lives
  
  [All]
  We trying to counteract that
  
  [Chali 2na]
  Unifying these ballers and backpacks
  With Knowledge-&-Fact-Tracks
  
  Chorus
  
  [Soup]
  Yo, my soul, infiltrate birth control
  And control guns Huey P used to hold
  I breathe life and through the 60's
  Voted most likely to get busy
  Inner city flash jiggy burn
  Phillies and things
  And we boogie to the bang
  Sunshine and rain
  Why you cats be talkin' that pimp crap in jail
  I corresponded with a nigga who can barely spell
  I know the situation oh so well (so well)
  I done seen it in 3D
  It ain't hard to tell
  Why you bang for your turf chain girl or your man
  I be banging for Islam in a spot in Sudan
  Cuz I can't solve or stop or put foot to this
  The hottest brother on the block couldn't cook to this
  J5 drop the verse beat hook to this
  And if you want a fly jam you should look to this
  So...
  
  [All]
  Raise the level, bass bottom to treble
  Forever keep it ghetto
  Funk and heavy metal
  Buck the devil
  Unify the rebel
  Whistle like a kettle
  With a fly acapello
  Smooth and mellow
  Locked load and settle
  Shine through times with rhymes bright like yellow
  Taste and swallow, lead and never follow
  Break it like a bottle
  Inspire like a role model
  
  Chorus
