Apocalypse

Ridenhour - robertz - gary g-wiz - the jbl - depper

Land of the free
But the skin i'm in identifies me
So the people around me
Energize me
Callin' all aboard this train ride
Talkin' 'bout raw hardcore
Leavin' frauds on the outside
But the bad thing is anyone can ride the train
And the reason
For that is 'cause we look the same
Lookin' all around at my so called friend
Light skin to the brown
The black
Here we go again
Homey over there knows keith an
But he be thiefin'
I don't trust him
Rather bust 'em
Up out goes his hand and i cough
He once stole from me
Yeah i wanna cut it off
The black thing is a ride i call the nighttrain
It rides the good and the bad
We call the monkey trained
Trained to attack the black it's true
'cause some of them look just like you
Stayin' on the scene
Sittin' on the train
See all the faces
Look about the same
There go the sellout who's takin' a ride like cargo
'cause he deal
The keys from key largo
Runnin' nat narcotic
By george he got it
Takin' makin' the g erotic
And the fiends they scheme
So he can put 'em down
But his method is wreck 'em
Put 'em in tha ground
Got tha nerve as hell
To yell brother man
He ain't black man
Known to murder his own
Traitor on the phone
Ridin' the train
Self-hater trained
To sell pain
The master's toy
Little boy
Hard to avoid he look wit' it but he null 'n' void
'cause he ridin' the train you think he down for the cause
'cause his face looks just like yours
More of the same insane who sayin'
Like flowin' like nighttrain
Runnin' the pain of the black reign
You look, you laugh
You doubt and go out
And i'm gone
But the bass goes on
To talk the talk, but walk the walk
The king of new york
Crack a lack attack the black
To crack the back
Once again i test a friend wit' sincerity
Or consider him an enemy
Who am i to tell a lie
Rather push da bush
Hope da cracker get crushed
I'm rollin' wit' rush
Leader of the bum rush
Russian i ain't
Spreadin' like paint
Lookin' at the put i got
And its kickin'
But it ain't chicken
But it's livin' for a city
So sick 'n' tired
Of a scene buckwild, piled in a file
Senile or chile
They said it never been no worser
Than this, i'm on the nighttrain
They hope ya don't miss it
Give ya what dey gotta give you just go
You musn't just put your
Trust in every brother yo
Some don't give a damn
'cause they the other man
Worse than a bomb
Posin' as uncle toms
Disgracin' the race
Blowin' up
The whole crew
Wit' some of them lookin'
Just like you

Ridenhour - robertz - gary g-wiz - depper - mandrill - santiago

I'm countin' down to the day deservin'
Fittin' for a king
I'm waitin' for the time when i can
Get to arizona
'cause my money's spent on
The goddamn rent
Neither party is mine not the
Jackass or the elephant
20.000 nig niggy nigas in the corner
Of the cell block but they come
From california
Population none in the desert and sun
Wit' a gun cracker
Runnin' things under his thumb
Starin' hard at the postcards
Isn't it odd and unique?
Seein' people smile wild in the heat
120 degree
'cause i wanna be free
What's a smilin' fact
When the whole state's racist
Why want a holiday f--k it 'cause i wanna
So what if i celebrate it standin' on a corner
I ain't drinkin' no 40
I b thinkin' time wit' a nine
Until we get some land
Call me the trigger man
Looki lookin' for the governor
Huh he ain't lovin' ya
But here to trouble ya
He's rubbin' ya wrong
Get the point come along
An he can get to the joint
I urinated on the state
While i was kickin' this song
Yeah, he appear to be fair
The cracker over there
He try to keep it yesteryear
The good ol' days
The same ol' ways
That kept us dyin'
Yes, you me myself and i'ndeed
What he need is a nosebleed
Read between the lines
Then you see the lie
Politically planned
But understand that's all she wrote
When we see the real side
That hide behind the vote
They can't understand why he the man
I'm singin' 'bout a king
They don't like it
When i decide to mike it
Wait i'm waitin' for the date
For the man who demands respect
'cause he was great c'mon
I'm on the one mission
To get a politician
To honor or he's a gonner
By the time i get to arizona

I got 25 days to do it
If a wall in the sky
Just watch me go thru it
'cause i gotta do what i gotta do
Pe number one
Gets the job done
When it's done and over
Was because i drove'er
Thru all the static
Not stick but automatic
That's the way it is
He gotta get his
Talin' mlk
Gonna find a way
Make the state pay
Lookin' for the day
Hard as it seems
This ain't no damn dream
Gotta know what i mean
It's team against team
Catch the light beam
So i pray
I pray everyday
I do and praise jah the maker
Lookin' for culture
I got but not here
From jah maker
Pushin' and shakin' the structure
Bringin' down the babylon
Hearin' the sucker
That make it hard for the brown
The hard boulova
I need now
More than ever now
Who's sittin' on my freedah'
Opressor people beater
Piece of the pick
We picked a piece
Of land that we deservin' now
Reparation a piece of the nation
And damn he got the nerve
Another niga they say and classify
We want too much
My peep plus the whole nine is mine
Don't think i even double dutch
Here's a brother my attitude hit 'em
Hang 'em high
Blowin' up the 90s started tickin' 86
When the blind get a mind
Better start and earn while we sing it
Now
There will be the day we know those down and who will go

Yo gee
Come and get your new york post
New york post right here
Come on y'all
Get the bost stubost stubost
Coasta coasta new york post
Yo new york post don't brag or boast
Dissin' flavor when he's butter that you put on your toast
Put my address in the paper cause i smacked that girl
She's the mother of my kid's that i took around the world
Disagreements having scuffles when you share upon
You shouldn't try to drain subjects in a duck pond
If you're gonna tell a story about people's worries
Watch what you tell 'em cause they don't bring you glory
It only brings agony, ask james cagney
He beat up on a guy when he found he was a fagney
Cagney is a favorite he is my boy
He don't jive around he's a real mccoy
Chuck d yeah, you tellin' flav we got to let 'em know
Here's a letter to the new york post
The worst piece of paper on the east coast
Matter of fact the whole state's forty cents
In new york city fifty cents elsewhere
It makes no goddamn sense at all
America's oldest continuously published daily piece of bullshit
Flavor flav is the one that makes the post money
Writers making violence in headlines funny
Tryin' to undress my past until it's naked
Post got flavor from sellin' no records
Europe asia to the street of new york
Flavor flav known for his finesse talk
Do it to ya for the post to employ me
New york post can't destroy me
Rapper of public enemy, rapstar beats lover
With the headline of a fucked up cover
Out the pot took plate new york post
Get your story straight motherfucker
It always seem they make our neighborhood look bad
Here's a letter to the new york post
Ain't worth the paper it's printed on
Founded in 1801 by alexander hamilton
That is 190 years continuous of fucked up news
Yo one can play the game, two can play the game
Yo flav read on can't forget you either jet
Flavor flav is your best jet yet
My own people own the most business
Write on faith of value'sness
Should have checked with me before you wrote it
Got it from another source and quote it
Put it out like the new year bull drop
In every beauty parlor and barber shop
Flavor flav world renown
Can't keep a man like flavor down
Yo jet be a good host
Don't print bull like the new york post
Augh, looks like somebody slipped up here
Anyway here's a letter to the new york post
Black newspaper and magazines are supposed to get the real deal
From the source y'all
Sorry, jet you took the info straight out of the post
Burned us just like toast
When it comes to getting you facts straight about p.e.
Get your shit correct

Ridenhour - robertz - gary g-wiz - depper

When i get down
I give what go around
And when i cough
I do my best to cut it off
I don't claim to be a preacher
Not paid to be a teacher
But i'm grown
I try to be a leader to the bone
Never could follow a man
Wit' a bottle
He's a baby wit' a beard
Not a feared role model
And they ask me where i got it
I get it from my pops
Wit' a man in the house
All the bullshit stops
Then i sing a song
About what the hell is goin' wrong
You never know
If you only trust the tv and the radio
These days
You can't see who's in cahoots
'cause now the kkk
Wears three-piece suits
It's like that y'all, it's like that y'all
In fact you know it's like that y'all

Drayton - gary g-wiz - robertz

Yo! ho!...yo niga! yo niga! no niga!
Check it out
How can you say to me yo my niga
Cursin' up a storm with your finger on a trigger
Feelin' all the girls like a big gold digger
Take a small problem
Make a small problem bigger
Yo i ain't poor i got dough
Don't consider me your brother no more
Goddamn kilogram, how do you figure
I don't want to be called yo niga
Yo niga
Hey
Yo niga
I try to make my statements
Stick like flypaper
Judge says to me yo niga sign these goddamn papers
My boss told me yo niga you're fired
Yo niga this, yo niga that
I know you're a niga now 'cause your head got fat
Flava framalama boy you won't figure
I don't wanna be called yo niga
Yo niga
Break it down
N.i.g.g.e.r.
Niga
Everybody sayin' it
Everybody playin' it rolling on the scales

Toby say yo i be good niga
Let me get a shovel make a good digger
I don't care how small or bigger
I don't want to be called yo niga
Yo niga...

Ridenhour - houston
Chuck d:

I was wheelin'
Wit' the boom in the back
The treble was level
I like it like that
I was rolly-roll-a-roll rollin'
5-o looked and said hold it
And i stopped still
I never got ill
'cause my license was clean an i showed
A peace powwow
Instead of pow pow
I'm straight up and i'm straight
So how you like me now
But i know how you do
You're straight from babylon
But i know how you do
You're straight from babylon
They said turn it down
'cause it's a new law
You never seen us before
But we're raw like a war
They warned me once
They warned me twice
So i knew i was warned
They had it goin' on
I got the f--- outta dodge
Wit' my bronco
60 miles per hour
50 miles to go
And i be pumpin' the sound
Drownin' out the cars
Which tape should i rock
L.l.'s or r.a.'s
I'm in the streets of new york
(go away)
So i pop in my kool g rap 'n' polo tape
And they was at it again
Sirens in the air
Ahhh sh-t
So i'm outta here
But the blue in the front
Called the blue in the back
They cut me off
Stopped me dead in my tracks
But this is minimal
I'm not a criminal
I always did what i did
Because i'm not a kid
But they looked me down
They stared me down
Told me what i did
I ain't wit' it
'cause word around town was a stickup
Yeah, yeah, yeah
B-boy niga in a pickup
But i was jeepin' and creepin'
Just a keepin' it down, sound
Here we go the run around
Blamin' me for the hardcore roar
But they the ones wit' the 44's
So i'm coolin'
I know the beat is rulin'
Too loud for the crowd
The bass is large yeah
So i'll get the f--- outta dodge
That's right y'all, el commando
El commando you're in demand-o

Sgt hawkes:

Sgt. hawkes and i'm down wit' the cop scene
I'm a rookie and i'm rollin' wit' a swat team
Packin' a nine can't wait to use it
Crooked cop yeah that's my music
Up against the wall don't gimme no lip son
A bank is robbed and you fit the description
And i ain't your mama and i ain't your pops
Keep your music down or you might get shot
This is a warning so watch your tail
Or i'm a have to put your ass in jail
I'm the police and i'm in charge
You don't like it get the f--- outta dodge

Ridenhour - robertz - gary g-wiz - depper

Bass in your face
Not an eight track
Gettin' it good to the wood
So the people
Give you some a dat
Reactin' to the fax
That i kick and it stick
And it stay around
Pointin' to the joint, put the buddha down
Goin', goin', gettin' to the roots
Ain't givin' it up
So turn me loose
But then again i got a story
That's harder than the hardcore
Cost of the holocaust
I'm talin' 'bout the one still goin' on
I know
Where i'm from, not dum diddie dum
From the base motherland
The place of the drum
Invaded by the wack diddie wack
Fooled the black, left us faded
King and chief probably had a big beef
Because of dat now i grit my teeth
So here's a song to the strong
'bout a shake of a snake
And the smile went along wit dat
Can't truss it
Kickin' wicked rhymes
Like a fortune teller
'cause the wickedness done by jack
Where everybody at
Divided and sold
For liquor and the gold
Smacked in the back
For the other man to mack
Now the story that i'm kickin' is gory
Little rock where they be
Dockin' this boat
No hope i'm shackled
Plus gang tackled
By the other hand swingin' the rope
Wearin' red, white and blue jack and his crew
The guy's authorized beat down for the brown
Man to the man, each one so it teach one
Born to terrorize sisters and every brother
One love who said it
I know whodini sang it
But the hater taught hate
That's why we gang bang it
Beware of the hand
When it's comin' from the left
I ain't trippin' just watch ya step
Can't truss it
An i judge everyone, one by the one
Look here come the judge
Watch it here he come now
I can only guess what's happ'nin'
Years ago he woulda been
The ships captain
Gettin' me bruised on a cruise
What i got to lose, lost all contact
Got me layin' on my back
Rollin' in my own leftover
When i roll over, i roll over in somebody else's
90 f--kin' days on a slave ship
Count 'em fallin' off 2, 3, 4 hun'ed at a time
Blood in the wood and it's mine
I'm chokin' on spit feelin' pain
Like my brain bein' chained
Still gotta give it what i got
But it's hot in the day, cold in the night
But i thrive to survive, i pray to god to stay alive
Attitude boils up inside
And that ain't it (think i'll every quit)
Still i pray to get my hands 'round
The neck of the man wit' the whip
3 months pass, they brand a label on my ass
To signify
Owned
I'm on the microphone
Sayin' 1555
How i'm livin'
We been livin' here
Livin' ain't the word
I been givin'
Haven't got
Classify us in the have-nots
Fightin' haves
'cause it's all about money
When it comes to armageddon
Mean i'm getting mine
Here i am turn it over sam
427 to the year
Do you understand
That's why it's hard
For the black to love the land
Once again
Bass in your face
Not an eight track
Gettin' it good to the wood
So the people
Give you some a dat
Reactin' to the fax
That i kick and it stick
And it stay around
Pointin' to the joint, put the buddha down
Goin', goin', gettin' to the roots
Ain't givin' it up
So turn me loose
But then again i got a story
That's harder than the hardcore
Cost of the holocaust
I'm talin' 'bout the one still goin' on
I know
Where i'm from, not dum diddie dum
From the base motherland
The place of the drum
Invaded by the wack diddie wack
Fooled the black, left us faded

Because of dat now i grit my teeth
So here's a song to the strong
'bout a shake of a snake
And the smile went along wit dat
Can't truss it

Ridenhour - shocklee - sadler - anthrax

Bass! how low can you go?
Death row what a brother knows
Once again, back is the incredible
The rhyme animal
The incredible d. public enemy number one
Five-o said "freeze!" and i got numb
Can't i tell 'em that i really never had a gun?
But it's the wax that the terminator x spun
Now they got me in a cell 'cause my records they sell
'cause a brother like me said "well
Farrakhan's a prophet and i think you ought to listen to
What he can say to you, what you ought to do"
Follow for now, power to the people say,
"make a miracle. d, pump the lyrical"
Black is back, all in, we're gonna win
Check it out, yeah y'all, here we go again

Chorus:
Turn it up! bring tha noize!

Never badder than bad 'cause the brother is madder than mad
At the fact that's corrupt as a senator
Soul on a roll, but you treat it like soap on a rope
'cause the beats in the lines are so dope
Listen for lessons i'm saying inside music that the critics are blasting me for
They'll never care for the brothers and sisters now across the country has us up for the war

We got to demonstrate, come on now, they're gonna have to wait
Till we get it right
Radio stations i question their blackness
They call themselves black, but we'll see if they play this

Chorus

Get from in front of me, the crowd runs to me
My deejay is warm, he's x, i call him norm, ya know
He can cut a record from side to side
So what, the ride, the glide should be much safer than a suicide
Soul control, beat is the father of your rock'n'roll
Music for whatcha, for whichin', you call a band, man
Makin' a music, abuse it, but you can't do it, ya know
You call 'em demos, but we ride limos, too
Whatcha gonna do? rap is not afraid of you
Beat is for sonny bono, beat is for yoko ono
Run dmc first said a deejay could be a band
Stand on its feet, get you out your seat
Beat is for eric b, and l.l. as well, hell
Wax is for anthrax, still it can rock bells
Ever forever, universal, it will sell
Time for me to exit, terminator x-it

Chorus

From coast to coast, so you stop being like a comatose
'stand, my man? the beat's the same with a boast dose
Rock with some pizzazz, it will last why you ask?
Roll with the rock stars, still never get accepted as
We got to pleed the fifth, we can investigate
Don't need to wait, get the record straight
Hey, posse's in effect, got the flavor terminator
X to sign checks, play to get paid
We got to check it out down on the avenue
A magazine or two is dissing me and dissing you
Yeah, i'm telling you
