On the Eve of War (Meldrick Taylor Mix)

Lyrics

[Intro: Vinnie Paz] Yeah, Vinnie Paz, baby Yeah, yeah [Verse 1: Vinnie Paz] This is raw, all across the board, Liquid Sword Chamber If it's coming from my jaw, then it's pure anger Heavy metal rap with a .44 banger We can settle that, let the mic cord hang ya I pay homage to the best of them, like Christopher Wallace And bring drama to the rest of 'em with biscuits from coppers I'm with Allah Justice and we raw gritty Pits of Hell, Illadel' to New York City I brought a four with me, we can capture the ring And now we more Merciless than a statue of Ming And y'all are more purposeless than a pacifist king You gon' die, like a brawl with a gat in the Bing It's a passionate thing, the way we make classics Genuine brilliance or innate madness Yeah, we all spin on the same axis And this chrome thing here leave your frame backless The police always tryna aim flame at us So I don't mind when a pig brain splatters I don't mind that we all gon' die soon I return to the silence of God's tomb [Chorus: GZA samples] There is no escaping once my blade start scraping My sword indeed make more niggas bleed Wannabe emcees is shaken So swift naked eye couldn't record the speed There is no escaping once my blade start scraping My sword indeed make more niggas bleed Wannabe emcees is shaken So swift naked eye couldn't record the speed [Verse 2 : GZA] Imagine a rhyme in it's prime, from off the baseline Skyscraper vertical, support the hang time Evidence that was left at the scene of the crime Traced back to a few from out a group of nine Who perform well regardless to the price of the tickets Off or on stage, whatever, still kick it With the footwork of Freddy Adu, it's all new Now the rap commissioners, they wanna clone my shoe But the road's narrow and it's difficult to climb With the heat and wind and fallin' rocks combined It's hard to stay aligned, the course is an obstacle Within each chamber the force it unstoppable Lyrical swordsman, blade sharp, I'll cut out your heart Emcees want no part Of any type of conflict, because then I respond quick It gets thick, the problem goes beyond sick [Chorus: GZA samples] There is no escaping once my blade start scraping My sword indeed make more niggas bleed Wannabe emcees is shaken So swift naked eye couldn't record the speed There is no escaping once my blade start scraping My sword indeed make more niggas bleed Wannabe emcees is shaken So swift naked eye couldn't record the speed
