[Verse 1: Louis Logic] I came close to giving up rap But would've missed getting my mitts On the same folks who broke it and kicking some a** [Over] the feeling, dishing out justice Like a lawman whipping out muskets as if it's the past This is a [gasp/gas], when I slip in and crash your birthday bash And leave the men and women aghast At first, they dash for the door But of course when the [arbiter? pours forth?] They wind up kissing my ignorant a** I act like I don't know any better But the truth is I'm both morally ruthless and a go-getter Which more or less means I won't let em, can't slip by me [To make the fans sick nightly? with my show efforts] I don't let up, I don't give and I don't bargain And don't mind admitting I'm so fed up with most artists And won't pardon none of your indiscretion, I'm so hardened Like an erection in your ladyfolk's gardens, I'm statuesque A rabid pest with a six [packed?] and a six-pack of Beck's At his best going crazy at his desk I went over the cuckoo's nest already Now I'm going batsh** next Let me catch my breath, then let me catch you Trying to match the mess I make of a track And I'll laugh to d**h And I ain't trying to say that you're wack I'd rather let you say you're the best, claim a new record And wait for the second you're taking it back [Chorus: Mdusu & Louis Logic] We just don't play unless we're playing for keeps A cutthroat way of relaying a speech Plus folks say we've got a way with the beats Starving artists who came here to eat
We get respect, check. We get the love: Yep Are we among the best? Yes Who the women hug? Us There's not escaping [the way to compete?] And no mistaking we're playing for keeps [Verse 2: Mdusu] So how you know where the [truth] is proper? Simple: Deuce is on it with Louis Logic This is sk** and you don't got it, so move it Gromit Flow's so fierce, I leave lyrics tattooed on foreheads Plays every sound system, our street games a wrap They keep skating back to replay the track You weak fakes are wack, we'll leave your trains of thought Derailed and smashed from BK to [Taz? Thames?] I'm clever with the scripts while you petty little kids Couldn't spit [smoke?] if you had hash resin on your lips We're the kings of kicking sense and you know what they say Those that can do, and those that can't [widget?] heads on the internet Just jealous haters demonstrating why they've never made sh** You pussies couldn't flow if you were f**ing menstruating Yeah, I said it baby, and you know it's true Even with a pair of dice on snake eyes, you couldn't roll a deuce [This?] the overdue, international collab [?] take fifty caliber raps and take kiddies back to the lab And if there's any fly sh** that you have, you get it from us So you best give them packages back The simple plan of attack: rap better on better beats [With fat mittens to chase that?] cheddar from west to east And I'm out, but I'll leave you geeks with one truth [My boys Juan and Ethan? hate? the ?] [Chorus]
