Story Behind the Song
Well, I decided that if I was gonna make an album, I might as well start it with a song that was gonna tell you what I'm about. I'm not gonna be talking about how many women I got, or all my cash, that ain't hip hop, it's hip pop. This is basically laying down some aggresive, non stop lyrics.
Lyrics
Verse 1
There's only 5 elements,
That I represent,
Don't try to test me, cuz I get real bent
Out o' shape it's like lyrical rape,
I fuck you up like the deck that fucked up your last tape.
Cuz when I be on the mic I'm not battlin', I'm warin',
And pourin my verse out, bitch I'm not borin,
My cypha's so unique, you'd think I'm talkin Greek, I got a ill technique,
With these rhymes that I speak.
Sit back and let me enter your mental,
It's so essential, when I'm rhymin over instrumentals,
That my style's diverse and I'm experimental,
Not for rental, like the style you spent fool.
Now here's the end of the verse,
It was only the first, on this hip hop burst,
When I'm on the m-i-c, you can't compete with me,
Even if my style was free, you still sound like a rookie.
[Chorus x2]
I'm the L-I-Q-U-I-D
Bein an emcee just comes so naturally,
Spittin verses like it ain't even nothin to me,
Listen close cuz this lesson ain't comin for free.
Verse 2
Verse 2, This is I how do, I'm comin' back at you,
With my Network cru,
Conversatin, hard concentratin,
Got your girl masturbatin, But I'm not perspiratin,
Cuz when I be on the mic I don't sweat it, I let it,
Form and then I spit it, like Nike just did it,
Got so many mentors,
Rakim and Black Thought,
Malik and Dice Raw,
Guru and Afu Ra,
All these cats can rhyme when they on the mic,
And like virgin on her first night, I'm definetely tight,
Comin from the underground,
Made this dark sound, for all the peeps that stood around,
Your speakers, sub woofer and the tweeters,
The mid range will kick you out of ya sneakers,
Cuz I got this style that's versatile,
Like a Voodoo Child, with a beat that's mild,
I get you goin wild,
Crazy, my rhymes tasty,But not too hasty,
I'm finishin this verse cuz I'm lazy.
[Chorus x2]
Verse 3
I'm back, I'm refreshed and my mind is clear,
Spittin rhymes in your ear, with that style you fear,
Now listen here.
I ain't tellin you no lies, don't be surprised
Cuz I'm inclined to find words that combine and entwine, line for line,
Time after time, I can find where you going with your rhymes,
The only place you'll find me's on the headlines,
I define the word divine, [Liq change the rhyme,
you be sayin that shit for time] aight cool that's fine,
I guess I can't decline
Now let me wrap up this track a bit, finish to spit,
It's definetely time to split, on this verse I quit,
But just as I exit,
An intro to the man you been chillin wit, I'm Liquid.
