7L & Esoteric - The Way Out lyrics

[7L talking] As we come to a close, Dangerous Connection 7L is the DJ (check) and the MC (yo) Tell 'em your name son [Verse 1: Esoteric] It's the E-S, take a deep breath, beat d**h Vocals eat flesh, like mesh Putting holes up in your weak chest Your gotta check this I take your necklace, leave you neckless Respect this, it's back to the basics I come through in an A-6 You come through in Asics Not the real ones, the fake sh**s I didn't know they made 'em You couldn't spit a def rhyme if you spit my verbatim Cadillac frank with the baddest bank, lately All I do is rip crews, sip booze and hit snooze f** around with this and catch a quick bruise You make about as much sense spitting your venom As a cotton sweatshirt that says, "Nautica denim" f** battlin' cats I'm Jim Abbottin' cats Which means singlehandedly, I'm embara**in' cats [7L talking] And it's like that, banging beats and dope rhymes Ay yo, shay, hit 'em off one more time (yo, yo, yo) [Verse 2: Esoteric] I'm rapping in a certain way, crack your vertebrae And spitting sweet sixteens like it's your birthday I blow green like Jimmy Cliff, but never hit the spliff The sh** I spit'll put ya whip in a fit Straight airing out cats like doormats I've been underground as long, as these civil war cats My closet, looks like I have five brothers Cause everything I have, yo I have in five colors Raps impair ya brain, clear the lane My diamond aeroplane'll put the fear in the game Got the deafest cats out there hearin' my name Rocking raincoats, too nice to wear in the rain I crack your commercial raps over your head Now your One Twelve got a Jagged Edge You sound wack if Marley Marl produced you And our business is chews crew, it's new school [Esoteric talking] Word up Yo 7L, take us the f** outta here [Outro sample] I'm the one that does the rocking, all my sounds are legit
