[Intro]
Yes yes yes yes
(Whoo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-WHOO!)
Light up the sky like the 4th of July
Everything in this life son, they've got two sides
It's part one (part one) part two (part two)
Get together with my crew, and we gon' do
Whatever we've got to do, uh-huh-UH!
Feast for Hi-Teknological, neurological
It's unstoppable, check it out..
[Verse 1]
I'm fantastic, FURIOUS like the Five from B'lawn
Brooklyn phenom'
Diss all peons, flow for eons
Mos Def is beyond, in fact, most cats can agree on
Is we on the same frequency?
If not, change your dial and get on it
I flip on this here beat, then the re-bonics
Keep heat like comets
Weave speech into deep street sonnets, who want it?
Hoppin' dancin' so sonic, you need tonics
Don't get yours from your schoolboy comets
All blazin' on your man, chronic
I twist the hard caps back to blue bonnets
I repeat -- WHO WANT IT?
Daytime on the list of time on the tradition, of combustion
Ignition, propulsion, put MC's on expulsion
The principle, YOUR academics inadmissible
You're indefensible, my style is so comprehensible
Cats take it to heart like a ventricle
You temporary like a weather pattern
Forgotten like you never happened
They'll never say "Whatever happened to Mos?"
My light shine boast from the East to the Left Coast
North and South both, 'cause it sound DOPE
Boy, your voice sound CHOKED
With the next man's style between your teeth, tongue and throat
Like *SOUND EFFECT*
Got to wash your mouth out with soap
My penstroke, is leavin' other men broke
What I invoke is never asleep, ever woke
It controls the soul of your foes and kinfolk
Maintainin' my scope from beginning to end quote
Like ba-biti-dabi-dida-da-dah-dah
Pretty High Noon riders get clipped and shot down
Beats by Hi-Teknological, neurological
Unstoppable, tidal wave in this shit, we powerful
[Hook]
Now raise your hands in the air now everybody get with it
The Universal, Magnetically
B-Boy Scientific, you don't stop
It go ON to the rhythm you don't, bust it!
So raise your hands in the air now everybody get with it
The Universal, Magnetically
You see I'm comin' to the party in the b-boy stance
I rock on the mic.. on the mic, yo
[Verse 2]
Son, it's in my chromosomes to rock this, I got this
Watch this! Assemble mo' raps, tap your pockets
Knock this, stimulate nerve ends and shock wrists
Smart art breakin' apart hearts in darkness
Down for the longest, son, peep the song list
Radiate enormous, pure peak performance
Vocal chords the strongest, acapella or cordless
Hit town, draw crowds like space shuttle launches
WHOO! We have lift off! -- we gone and
Brooklyn New York make the world moonwalk like John Glenn
Son, I'm sendin' it out, for the short to long haul
Earth sky, left right in between it and all y'all
[Hook]
Now raise your hands in the air now everybody get with it
The Universal, Magnetically
B-Boy Scientific, you don't stop
It go ON to the rhythm you don't, bust it!
So raise your hands in the air everybody get with it
The Universal, Magnetically
B-Boy Scientific, you don't stop
You see I'm comin' to the party in the b-boy stance
I rock on the mic make your girl wanna dance
Fly like a dove, that come from above
From rockin' on the mic and you can call me Mos Love
