[Intro: Celph Titled] Yeah, f** taking hip hop back We moving sh** forward East Coast Avengers Celph Titled the captain of decapitation One two, one two Trademarc mic check Esoteric mic check DC beat check Demigodz, AOTP We slice necks, let's go [Verse 1: Trademarc] We're young, bored, not dumb, self-absorbed Numb, heroes unsung Now I've been holding my tongue (why?) Cause our slang sound dumb when you're over 31 You're overdone, overhyped, overpaid Overnight stars can't write two bars without an oversight Fronting like an overbite, it's only right (what?) There's been a lot of lonely nights Where I struggle and fight well I cope Is like juggling knifes on tightropes at a frightening height Wrists sliced open both, writing suicide notes With knots in your throat like boxes of votes (what's wrong?) I've seen enough doctors in cloaks It's unimpressive, I'm clinical Manic depressive, cynical Mood swings move like rings Cyclical, panic obsessive, I can be aggressive It's typical to find me ripping you, it's overly excessive Everything I spit at you, admit it you openly try to ridicule But you could never swallow everything you bit into Straight out, more or less you gone fade out Laid out before like you like your shadow when the shade out Don't make me pull the one plus eight out [Hook] Are you listening? If I got to choose a coast I got to choose the east East Coast boom bap, pm to the am The revolution is near, are you listening? It ain't hard to tell I'm the East Coast Overdose If I got to choose a coast I got to choose the east East Coast, Avengers, pm to the am Some say the revolution is near, are you listening? East Coast boom bap, all day [Verse 2: Celph Titled] I let a wild bull loose on the White House lawn Twenty minutes later I have the President on the horn (word is bond) And that's real talk With phony silence, one look in my rhyme book, homie, and it's only violence At the telly in a bathrobe with loaded chrome Vacation in Boca Raton, left you with broken bones If you provoke then it's on, that means we get it popping Cop a thousand bricks from a thousand cops at a government auction We rap regurgitators, repeat my verse, my fans say sh** cause my words contagious In hindsight, I guess I rhyme like no other MC can rhyme like Think you better then I'm like: “Yeah right.” Cause ain't nobody that sounds like this I'm a motherf**ing rap perfectionist So all the other MCs that came before me Gotta realise that I'm the future, you will adorn me And did I mention that, I'm pitching crack? Underhand with rubber bands and my East Coast Avengers mask Begin my wrath in a Samurai sword stance Thought you went to Heaven but got denied by the doorman [Hook] Are you listening? If I got to choose a coast I got to choose the east East Coast boom bap, pm to the am The revolution is near, are you listening? It ain't hard to tell I'm the East Coast Overdose If I got to choose a coast I got to choose the east East Coast, Avengers, pm to the am Some say the revolution is near, are you listening? East Coast boom bap, all day [Verse 3: Esoteric] After PE but before Flavor of Love After Jay-Z but before he got played in clubs There was an MC spitting that wasn't afraid of blood That wasn't afraid of struggle, that wasn't afraid to muscle His way in the game with hustle like Russel and have a cheque We power forward, you were gone, just a pa**ing threat Plus that hood you grew up in, that's the top of a ba**inet You're more mental than ghetto son of Geppetto I'm a rebel yelling devil, I'ma level your empire Y'all fail again, we got the Midi Alien East Coast Avengers dawg, I ain't in blood Lie in the mud, run for cover Thought they fly in the SCUD's You can't handle bare facts with the mind of a cup These thugs wanna go out with a bang but die with a sigh and a thud Tell me what's cool with that, tell me what's hood with that Tell me you're pushing a pen dawg and I'll push your crack [Hook] If I got to choose a coast I got to choose the east East Coast boom bap, boom bap The revolution is near, are you listening? It ain't hard to tell I'm the East Coast Overdose If I got to choose a coast I got to choose the east East Coast boom bap, East Coast Overdose The revolution is near, are you listening? East Coast boom bap, all day East Coast boom bap, East Coast Overdose East Coast Boom Bap [Outro: Esoteric] My man Statik Selektah with that ziggah ziggah, good looks DC with the, uh, you know what he brings to the table
