Explicit version of "Countdown" lyrics
For she's perhaps quite clever
On the mic
Scary
I make like Jay-Z
Rock 'em out the club
Then buy 'em a bottle of champagne
From the bar compliments of E-Dub
I be the one to cause the confusion
Twist your mind to pieces make ya think I'm losin'
Yeah
But
So
B****** like dope E so
I Buck-a-Shot like I'm Black Moon
Let me ask you's
Control the states and make a Def America
My styles legit
It's official
Word to the preacher's wife
I got the power to annoy ya
And keep them shiesty folks on point
I'm the butler servin' MC's
Because I love to
N-O
I put you in your right mind and frame
I derail tracks and rappers like Doc designed the train
All aboard with the Def Squad
My name be precise range
F*** a gun
Young
But Doc never trusted them hoes
Foes
Whether it be weed
My athlete flow make Doc show
Make niggaz bow down
Pull out the pound
Jump out a tree
From the moment you start pumpin' Redman in your deck
You be like damn
If I apply more pressure
Son spark the spliff
The tracks make acrobats lose their arch and s***
If you came to brawl
My squad lickin' hard for all white people to jawl
MC's it's the final countdown
You look tired can you go the round
If you can
If not
MC's it's the final countdown
You look tired can you go the round
If you can
If not
Yeah
Closed jaw
You could kiss my ass and make a love song about it
'Cause
Yeah
Get niggaz in jail watchin' Soul Train turn off the TV
Flippin' twenty-six letters of the alphabet
You talk s***
I'm heartthrob
Not a hip hop cop and not down with the Mobb
Capable of handlin' multiple responsibilities
Simultaneously with communication capabilities
From high class to mid class to low and greedy
I will instantaneously bust an MC
The non forgetter
And make you exercise your s*** up
These niggaz is ridin' dick like rodeo
Who wanna toe-to-toe
Def Squad click
Forty five slug sender
Represent for the real gangsters and drug dealers
Know half your little rap and I'm cappin' and slappin' niggaz
Same niggaz takin' this squad s*** for a joke
Pull the pistol 'bout to smoke
Their cowards
Live form NYC
Master the ceremonial
Call you weak
Phony tough Tony ones
House
Realer than black
'Bout to black out on all you wack cats
MC's it's the final countdown
You look tired can you go the round
If you can
If not
MC's it's the final countdown
You look tired can you go the round
If you can
If not
