High Voltage (B-Side Rarities)

You know what I mean

You could put a label on a life

Put a label on a lifestyle

Sometimes

You know put a label on how you wake up every morning

And go to bed at

Night

Alright

I've been diggin' into crates ever since I was living in space

Before the rat race before monkeys had human traits

I mastered numerology and big bang theology

Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology

Invented the mic so I could start blessing it

Chin-checkin' kids to make my point like an impressionist

Many men have tried to shake us

But I twist mic cords in double helixes and show them what I'm made of

I buckle knees like leg braces

Cast a spell of instrumentalness on all of you emcees who hate us

So you can try on leave you without a shoulder to cry on

From now to infinity let icons be bygones

I firebomb ghostly notes haunt this

I tried threats but moved on to a promise

I stomp s**t with or without an accomplice and

Run the gauntlet with whoever that wants this

High voltage

The unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringin' you up and taking you down

High voltage

Comin' at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

Akira I put a kick in the backbones of clones with microphones

Never satisfy my rhyme jones

Sprayin' bright day over what you might say

My blood type's Krylon technicolor type A

On highways bright with road rage

Pages of wind in cages of tin that bounce all around

Surround sound devouring the scene

Subliminal gangrene paintings over all the same thing

Sing-song karaoke copy b******t

Break bones verbally with sticks-and-stone tactics

Fourth dimension combat convention

Write rhymes at ease while the track stands at attention

Meant to put you away with a pencil pistol official

Sixteen-line the rhyme missile

While you risk your all I pick out all your flaws

Spittin' raw blah blah blah you can say you saw

High voltage

The unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringin' you up and taking you down

High voltage

Comin' at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

High voltage

The unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringin' you up and taking you down

High voltage

Comin' at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

I like to rock and rap you know what I mean

People are acting like you know wow that's a new invention

That s**t ain't new

We're constantly evolving

It is constantly changing sometimes

There's a world of change

Everybody's always trying to put labels on it

There ain't no label for this s**t

They always gotta try to put a label on it

Try to create something so they can water it down

Sometimes I feel like a prophet misunderstood

Under the gun like a new disease

Sometimes I feel like a prophet misunderstood

Under the gun like a new disease

High voltage

The unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringin' you up and taking you down

High voltage

Comin' at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

High voltage

The unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringin' you up and taking you down

High voltage

Comin' at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

High voltage

The unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringin' you up and taking you down

High voltage

Comin' at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

High voltage

The unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringin' you up and taking you down

High voltage

Comin' at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

You know what I mean

You can't put a label on a lifestyle
