Benny Riley

(Intro)

DJ's, cuttin up beats and stuff like that and

That was my first exposure to the whole, artistry in hip-hop

There is nothing in this music, that I don't wanna hear

There is words, that are kind of syncopated and rhythmic

And there's this hot drum track, it's great!

(Chorus: repeat 2X)

"This is, this is great! This is, this is great!"

And I could hear, this enormous

"This is, this is great! This is, this is great!"

This is music, I've been waiting all my life to hear

(Canibus)

Ayo

I don't give a **** if you getting some cash, or getting some ass

If I was there, I'd pick up the tab

Toss you a rag, tell you to wipe your stinking ass

Get back to the lab, make sure Hip-Hop lasts

Do death before dishonor, I do this 'cause I wanna

Your body armor don't protect you from your karma

Ready for the encounter, like a titty-bar bouncer

Or Muhammed in the Mini-Mart counter with four-pounders

Quick-draw, McGraw spitter

Let me see you hands jitter, I'll hit you where the good Lord split you

You faggot ass ******' is see-through

I treat you like we in the same cell, but I'm Bugsy Segal //

Smack your teeth loose, for street juice

Go to court in cheap-suits, giving testimony over beat-loops

Take them to my hood, show the evil I'm from

They can't blame me for the evil I've done, now they see why I run

Why I keep a tight leash on the gun

Why my speech is so revered by the young, 'cause my spirit is young

A ***** spitting like that, got serious lungs

Yo, I'm serious son, he a furious one

(Chorus)

(Canibus)

Yo

The name Benny Riley, the trip took twenty-eight days

From New-York to Cali, driving through alleys

My mom mad at me, my dad laughs at me

My life's a tragedy, I need this record deal

Precious, she got the freshest breasts'

And an ass from heaven; thirty-six, twenty-four, thirty-seven

She the second broad I ever humped under a bridge

But she the first broad I ever ****ed within the record 'biz

Desi told her I was crazy, and she called the Feds

The ***** didn't know any better; I let her live

She don't know Desi is a greasy ****ing pig

And he set me up for something he knows I never did

When I see him, I'ma put the Smith and Wesson to his head

To change his outlook on life, maybe I'll show him what it's like to be dead

Like the way I look at lyrics

I kill it 'till they dead; it's that vivid

Got skills to kill the rap business

Got bills to put a contract on the witness if he rat-snitching

******' in the back, digging holes for your next acting role

Get buried with your cash and gold

Your assets sold, your family Marlon Brando broke

Shattered hopes, rapper's joke, took it like a man though

Benny Riley is the closest thing to Canibus yo

******' just don't be understanding his flow, until the hammer let go

Grab the mic and cold damage the show

Get split with bananas flows, at the Canibus Bowl //

(Chorus)

(Outro)

This is music, I've been waiting all my life to hear

And I didn't know it
