It's like the A to B to the C, it's easy as 1, 2, 3

DJ, Hi-Tek y'all, Inspectah Deck

Collaborate, break bread with, Pete Rock

Homeskillet

From the beginnin', head spinnin' hip hop

The never endin', don't stop

B-boy religion, I'll rock and claim position

Maim the opposition, tradition, got 'em on lock

Follow the greater mission, freedom marks the top

Beat 'em off the block, now cock wrap they bop

Number one on street spots, Homeskill' the hard rock

I drop steady, cripplin' non-believers like Teddy

Pendergrass, tense up ya tender ass, you're not ready

Hold steady, think first, my ink burst floods and blunder

Crown Hi-Tek sound thump pounds of thunder

Street hunger, the universal man works wonders

Mic and hand breakin' land, rockin' up from down under

I got sound control and I'm kinda slick wit it

Heads know I get down like that, can you dig it?

This is the way how I roll or how I deliver this packages

Turn the other cheek, 'cuz this track I be smackin' it

But don't clap, 'cuz this style'll bust caps

I'm jiggy and all that, black and get control back

But fuck that, control over mind, body and soul

The MC regulator, microphone detonator

My real live wanna battle niggas take a vouch

Eighty Shieks, throw them joints and 'Let da fuckin' monkey out'

Not "Hell yeah" but "Hell, yeah" in Cin' City

When I spit this here it's easy as

(1, 2, 3)

You can "Huh?" You can hear me, you ain't heard nuttin' yet

I'm live and fortified like Kweli and Mos Def

Practice the incredible, shit ain't even competable

Due to that I'm technical, TKO's I got those

I got control but I'm wreckless in studios

I got Harmony and Thug tendancies all in my bones

No need to be flashy, for heads to recognize me

Hi-Tek throw them joints that magnetize me

We global, east, west, north, south, we robo

Hands that touch mic's get smacked 'cuz that's a no, no

Who rock the mic? Yo, we take the whole show

When heads hear this piece they call off with no shows

It's like the A to B to the C, it's easy as 1, 2, 3

DJ, Hi-Tek y'all, Inspectah Deck

Collaborate, break bread with Pete Rock

Donte, Main Flo

I struggle more in tug of war, writin' rhymes by the score

Before I lived the hustle, swore this poor man would give the law

As a testament it goes, it was destined in my soul

They tested but questioned weapons rest in my foes

Blessed in my flows and obsessed with my scrolls

Midas Touch as it's told, writin' nuttin' less than gold

My journeys, I march through madness like atorneys

Send you out on a gerdy talkin' 'bout yo' eternity

Can't stand it, search for your wind like Ban Enti

One man band on the MP and a nigga ran simply

Hi-Tek, all these other niggas can exempt me

Say he's the nicest out loud and gently

Have it your way, a freestyle mean no pay

If you sign a wack contract that mean

(No weight)

Got your John Hancock on the paper to say

"The band locked and don't know, dough flow your way"

"The band locked and don't know, dough flow your way"

"The band locked and don't know, dough flow your way"

"The band locked and don't know, dough flow your way"

Alright okay, I'm feelin' you, common

It's like the A to B to the C, it's easy as 1, 2, 3

DJ, Hi-Tek y'all, Inspectah Deck

Collaborate, break bread with Pete Rock

Main Flo, Main Flo

Woes out my treasure box, seven locks, pressure to plot

Measurin' blocks, releasin' this live like Desert Fox

Hear spiritual, remain plentiful, same generals

Train criminals to get the most plus the minimals

Rob past, raw cash, facin' the God last

Spot grabs, sure pop laugh, jump out of stock caps

For cop cash, watch taps, eyes on my top hat

Flop fast, stock crash, how when I drop math?

This rare rap, air vac', exit and fair fact

We share packs, stare back, cover our bear tracks

Ya peeps move, each choose, jump in our Jeep smooth

Unleash two and leak fumes, studyin' Hebrew

Big Ohio status

Homeskillet, Crunch extraordinare

Main Flo, Donte, Hi-Tek

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
