Lyrics

Verse one:

I'm rated "r"...this is a warning, ya better void
Poets are paranoid, dj's d-stroyed
Cuz I came back to attack others in spite-
Strike like lightnin', it's quite frightenin'!
But don't be afraid in the dark, in a park
Not a scream or a cry, or a bark, more like a spark;
Ya tremble like a alcoholic, muscles tighten up
What's that, lighten up! you see a sight but
Suddenly you feel like your in a horror flick
You grab your heart then wish for tomorrow quick!
Music's the clue, when I come your warned
Apocolypse now, when I'm done, ya gone!
Haven't you ever heard of a mc-murderer?
This is the death penalty,and I'm servin' a
Death wish, so come on, step to this
Hysterical idea for a lyrical professionist!
Friday the thirteenth, walking down elm street
You come in my realm ya get beat!
This is off limits, so your visions are blurry
All ya see is the meters at a volume
Pumping lyrics of fury!

It's a ....furified freestyle!

Terror in the styles, never error-files
Indeed I'm known-your exiled!
For those that oppose to be level or next to this..
I ain't a devil and this ain't the exorcist!
Worse than a nightmare, you don't have to sleep a wink
The pain's a migraine every time ya think
Flashbacks interfere, ya start to hear:
The r-a-k-i-m in your ear;
Then the beat is hysterical
That makes eric go get a ax and chops the wack
Soon the lyrical format is superior
Faces of death remain
Mc's decaying, cuz they never stayed
The scene of a crime every night at the show
The fiend of a rhyme on the mic that you know
It's only one capable, breaks-the unbreakable
Melodies-unmakable, pattern-unecscapable
A horn if want the style I posses
I bless the child, the earth, the gods and bomb the rest
For those that envy a mc it can be
Hazardous to your health so be friendly
A matter of life and death, just like a ethch-a-sketch
Shake 'till your clear, make it disappear, make the next
After the ceremony, let the rhyme rest in peace
If not, my soul'll release!
The scene is recreated, reincarnated, updated, I'm glad you made it
Cuz your about to see a disasterous sight
A performance never again performed on a mic:
Lyrics of fury!

A furified freestyle!

The "r" is in the house-too much tension!
Make sure the system's loud when I mention
Phrases that's fearsome..
You want to hear some, sounds that not only pounds but plays your eardrums;
I sit back and observe the whole scenery
Then nonchalantly tell you what it mean to me
Strictly business I'm quickly in this mood
And I don't care if the whole crowd's a witness!
I'm a tear you apart but I'm a spare you a heart
Program into the speed of the rhyme, prepare to start
Rhythm's out of the radius, insane as the craziest
Musical madness mc ever made, see it's
Now an emergency, open-heart surgery..
Open your mind, you will find every word'll be
Furier than ever, I remain the furture
Battle's tempting...whatever suits ya!
For words the sentence, there's no resemblance
You think you're ruffer, then suffer the consequences!
I'm never dying-terrifying results
I wake ya with hundreds of thousands of volts
Mic-to-mouth resuscitation, rhythm with radiation
Novicane ease the pain it might save him
If not, eric b.'s the judge, the crowd's the jury..
How do I plead to homicide?
Lyrics of fury!

They're getting furier! a furified freestyle!
