Cannibal Ox - Iron Rose lyrics

[Verse 1: Vast Aire] I'm a blood s**a I feed on the souls of the dead MCs As Mega burns your scrolls I'm a petal from an iron rose My kung-fu is the iron robe I put you in an iron grave I came up in an ocean with iron waves Back-pedalling All you haters let go of my metal wing Clap with this metal thing IGC, that's my iron family My kids are rough, they eat iron candy My girl's tough, she wears iron panties I was born in an iron galaxy You can act Sir. William My favorite rock band is Iron Maiden I wrote these raps on iron pages Blacks hate the prisons with iron cages [Chorus: Vast Aire] When you speak to the king Address that man as the Iron Sheik We got higher heights to reach Advance the concrete with iron feet When you speak to the king Address that man as the Iron Sheik We got higher heights to reach Advance the concrete with iron feet [Verse 2: Vordul Mega] We came from hard times with natural disasters Trying to avoid the bullet, chit-chat, and health hazards Since knitting caps and no laces He was rocking it, bopping it, Northface pockets Record papers of eight chases When everybody tryin' to laugh to the bank from places With hard chemicals, regards measuring (Motion) treasuring (moments) We made it through hard sh** like fish with large fins The hearts of men, enlightening silence Writing iron scripts, escaping dark dazes Hearts at play, been at enough ledges For crying loud and still got rough edges to iron out Praying, never lying down Got it now waddles be trying to wow We apply integrity with her pa**ion Times heated like the Serengeti Can't stay still, it's better when it happens [Chorus: Vast Aire] When you speak to the king Address that man as the Iron Sheik We got higher heights to reach Advance the concrete with iron feet When you speak to the king Address that man as the Iron Sheik We got higher heights to reach Advance the concrete with iron feet [Verse 3: MF DOOM] Don't get dried in From the frying iron, for lying again And die trying while crying Just a suggestion Just to question what he told him Couldn't hold him from rolling the Western war like a golden golem God bless the soul, man Oddly dressed old man With fresh kicks, broham The freshest slowest jam Ride a iron horse With eyes wide cross Let off, the side iron Trying to guide the lost I ain't claiming rhymin' At the droppin' of a diamond Filthy metal fingers get it poppin' like a hymen At first she said no, her iron was low He had to go, get back to mining iron for dough Flow with an iron tongue Spit words from an iron lung, where flung Who gives a flying turd or iron dung A chunky j**el bracelet The width of a lion's wrist Metal faced scientist Rule with an iron fist [Chorus: Vast Aire] When you speak to the king Address that man as the Iron Sheik We got higher heights to reach Advance the concrete with iron feet When you speak to the king Address that man as the Iron Sheik We got higher heights to reach Advance the concrete with iron feet
