(RZA)
Yo, yo one two one two, yo live in effect
We got the king Ruler Zig-Zag-Zag Allah
Commonly known to y'all as the RZA
Yo before we go into side two or side B of this double CD
Knahmsayin I want to give y'all a little announcement man
For the last year there's been a lot of music comin out
The sh** been weak, knowhatI'msayin?
A lot of n***as trying to take hip-hop
And make that sh** R&B, rap and bullsh** yaknowhatI'msayin?
Or make that sh** funk
f** that, this is MCin right here, this is hip-hop
Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang gonna bring it to you in the purest form
I got the GZA on my side, k**ah Priest
Sunz of Man, Royal Fam, k**army, Gravediggaz, 12 O'Clock
Yo, we want to let y'all n***as know somethin man
To my people all across the world; Japan, Europe -- knowhatI'msayin?
Canada, knowmean -- Austria, Germany, Sweden
Yo, this is true hip-hop you listenin to right here
In the pure form, this ain't no R&B with a wack n***a takin the loop
Be loopin that sh** thinkin it's gonna be the sound of the culture
YaknowhatI'msayin? (That player bullsh**)
YaknowhatI'msayin? All that player dressin up
On this sh**, actin like this some kind of fashion show man
YaknowhatI'msayin? This is hip-hop right here
YaknowhatI'msayin? This is lyrics, MCin
And yo, to y'all n***as who think you going to become an MC overnight
YaknowhatI'msayin? Better snap out that f**in dream
Man it takes years for this you Cat in the Hat a** rappers
You Dr. Seuss, Mother Goose, simple minded
(Stop runnin up on n***as with all that wack sh**)
Word up man (I'm talking about you MC's)
You ain't no MC; n***as ain't made for this yaknowhatI'msayin?
This sh** was Only Built 4 Cuban Linx -- we told y'all n***as back then
And then everybody wanted to change their motherf**in name
YaknowhatI'msayin? We come out with a style
Now everybody wanna imitate our style and all you producers out there
YaknowhatI'msayin? It's all good to show love to a n***a
But stop bitin my sh**, yaknowhatI'msayin?
Come from your own heart with this sh**
And all y'all MC's, stop biting from my n***as
We told ya'll n***as on the f**ing Cuban Linx album
Don't bite our sh**, y'all n***as keep biting
Yo, I'm going to tell y'all something man
It's time for the Wu revolution right here
To all my n***as across the world
Raise your motherf**ing fist in the air
And get ready for the Triumph
Cause the Gods is here to take over this sh**
Word up, peace
