MYSTERY OF RAW

Rebel to the grain, there's no way to barricade me
Rebel to the grain, there's no way to barricade me

Sire, I set the microphone on fire
Lifestyles vary and carry like Mariah
I come from the Shaolin slum in the island funk
Steamroller niggas like an 18-wheeler
What the drunk driver drivin', here's what's survivin'

Rebel to the grain, there's no way to barricade me
Steamroller niggas like an 18-wheeler, what the-
Rough like Timberland wear, yeah
Me and the Clan in your Land Cruisers out there

Raw, I'ma give it to ya with no trivia
Raw like cocaine straight from Bolivia
My hip-hop will rock and shock the nation
Like the Emancipation Proclamation
Weak MCs approach with slang that's dead
You might as well run into the wall and crack your head
I push a force, a force you're doubtin'
I make the devil cower to the farthest mountain

Well, I'm the sire, I set the microphone on fire
Lifestyles vary and carry like Mariah
I come from the Shaolin slum in the island funk
It's comin' through with 'nough niggas and enough guns
So if you wanna come sweatin', stressin', contestin'
You got your soft sword at the midsection

Rebel to the grain
Rebel to the grain
Way to barricade me
Rebel to the grain
Rebel to the grain, there's no way to barricade me
Rebel to the grain
There's no way to barricade me
Rebel to the grain
There's no way to barricade me

Raw, I'ma give it to ya with no trivia
Raw like cocaine straight from Bolivia
Raw, I'ma give it to ya with no trivia
Raw like cocaine straight from Bolivia
Raw, I'ma give it to ya with no trivia
Raw like cocaine straight from Bolivia

It's comin' through with 'nough niggas and enough guns
So if you wanna come sweatin', stressin', contestin'
You got your soft sword at the midsection

So short the talk if you can't walk the walk
Phony niggas are out rhymin', sure
A mad vet is what the projects make me
Rebel to the grain, there's no way to barricade me
Steamroller niggas like an 18-wheeler
What the drunk driver drivin', here's what's survivin'

Rebel to the grain
Rebel to the grain
There's no way to barricade me
Rebel to the grain
Rebel to the grain
Rebel to the grain, there's no way to barricade me
