Start the Show (feat. Raekwon & RZA)
For money, I assassinate
Today I have an opponent that's worthy
But killin' me
You won't find that so easy
Clap your hands, ouch
Let's start the show
C'mon, let's go
Said one, two, three, four
I said oh, clap your hands, uh
Let's start the show
Here we go, here we go
I said one, two, three, what, go
Revolutionary gangster, the will to kill
Everythin' up, my roots is steel
Do it big time, march through the desert and shine
Let the C's live free while we open the minds
Of every black man, white man, no color
My writin' hand is like dynamite, I fight for land
Blood stains, yo, gettin' money affect the plan
We travel to Beijing and end up in Japan
Hoods everywhere, bring the goods and gear
And teach them how to hold mics and grow them beards
Then stop, check my brothers and my sisters in Africa
We know that's theirs, yes, we been actin' up
Bush fucked the world up and left our soldiers
Out in Iraq, bless them with roses
Foes try to approach, we roast them goats
We terrorize the city while forgettin' the quotes
I said oh, clap your hands, ouch
Let's start the show
C'mon, let's go
I said one, two, three, four
I said oh, clap your hands, uh
Let's start the show
Here we go, here we go
I said one, two, three, what, go
They tryin' to take us back to Reaganomics with atomic bombs
On Islamic countries to stop them from being Islamic, yeah
But Islam is a way of life, Islam is the way of Christ
Islam means peace, the beast must pay a price
For his wickedness, politics is the trickiest business
On this planet, the bandits are the slipperiest snakes
That ever slithered, you ever stop to consider
Who's pullin' these strings from Napoleon to Hitler?
Is there an unseen hand with the unseen plan?
The unclean man from the unclean land
Desire to kill the righteous, dumb down the brightest
Give his life in this world that seem so lifeless
Put a price on things that are priceless
Convince us that meanness is stronger than the niceness
Who really has the power? Is it theirs, is it ours?
Is it a democracy or the 'morning prowlers'?
Do we have a press or president?
Is it a test or a testament? Pest or pestilence?
Who got the evidence?
Who got the common sense? Stop all the negligence
Oh, clap your hands, uh
Let's start the show
Here we go, here we go
I said one, two, three, what, four
It's time I oversee the world
You taught me that basically
I'm moldin' rap isn't solely my idea
Chef, Senator of thoughts
Democratic cats sent by the judge
The flavor that was brought about that day
The taste come out raw
Oh, I said oh, clap your hands, ouch
Let's start the show
C'mon, let's go
I said one, two, three, four
I said oh, clap your hands, uh
Let's start the show
Here we go, here we go
I said one, two, three, what, go
