Rapture - Cormega

[00:01.01]Rapture - Cormega
[00:22.28]My rise inevitable*
[00:23.9]I rhyme incredible
[00:25.33]I try to ascend to the highest
[00:26.76]Level when I'm in the booth
[00:28.27]I execute like an armed sniper
[00:29.95]Nicer than me na cipher
[00:31.51]I'm an articulate lyricist
[00:32.95]I remind you of the era
[00:34.57]When trickland was with the knicks
[00:36.25]Fort greene was Preme's
[00:37.32]And streets was serious
[00:38.43]I spit sick as diesel in your vain
[00:40.81]Which means you get a rush
[00:42.37]And fiend for me to mc again
[00:44.05]As I look back how I cooked
[00:45.74]Crack and what we became
[00:46.99]From greed no mystique
[00:48.17]In this hood we proclaim
[00:49.67]Where life and death
[00:50.92]Are common as right and left
[00:52.35]And dealin rock is like boxing
[00:53.98]You can win with the right connect
[00:55.85]Yet if ya stance ain't strong you lose rounds
[00:58.35]Be evasive body shots will put you down
[01:00.83]I spared with patience now
[01:02.4]I spill dom on the pavement
[01:03.9]For those who not here my honor is sacred
[01:06.45]I came from sleepin on cots in cages
[01:09.2]To sleepin on beaches on tropic vacations
[01:11.95]My poetrys deep over melodic arrangements
[01:14.82]Ayatollah hooked the beat up and I just laced it
[01:29.66]Enter my realm they callin me a savior
[01:31.28]Of hip-hop
[01:31.72]Same time niggas who get knocked
[01:33.59]And callin me for paper
[01:34.78]The cycle is never ending like my pen against paper
[01:37.34]In my premises I'm infinite no lyricist is greater
[01:40.09]Straight up like coke off the stove get ya weight up
[01:43.08]My mental strainer separates pure from infiltrator
[01:45.07]And men who betray us
[01:46.69]When the danger they scared to face consequences
[01:48.69]They want live niggas respect
[01:50.56]But have the heart of women
[01:52.06]The artist missin like an ancient
[01:53.5]Civilization it's hard to listen
[01:55.11]Rappin hip-hop but different
[01:56.990005]I'm a student of tradition
[01:58.369995]A sneaker head who used to pee the bed
[02:00.67]Now I'm shittin in the beamer lift my heater
[02:02.67]If my seed ain't fed
[02:03.86]I seen the streets make a killer outta tj
[02:05.97]My pj's is said to breed base heads
[02:08.42]Some people when the seen spank dead
[02:10.68]They even greed fakes tears knowin it's he they fear
[02:13.54]I flow with ease over the beat this is me right here
[02:16.41]No need to be king to the street I'm here apparent
[02:19.6]A maverick in the art of rappin
[02:21.9]I hold no grudge but palm a gat
[02:24.09]For those plottin those as if I'm a have it
[02:26.27]It's not gon happen I'll pop off like a block
[02:28.52]War and turn a fiend to hardcore addict
