Eric B. - Untouchables lyrics

[Verse 1] This is poetry in motion Try to catch on, stay close to the host and Emcees try to make the road rough but I'm coasting Ladies hear the rhymes rub em on like lotion Hit the spot soothing, can't stop moving Go ahead bust a sweat and you can bet I'm still cooling When I detain it's a brainstorm Never the same form, every brain I rained on is warm Taking a trip through memory lane to melody See if you could tell if these thoughts the fella sees Could do you justice, but you can't touch this Some kid just tried to bust this but he just missed I'm universal and much more merciful So versatile with the style it's reversible I get away even if I say a curse or two First, let me bust another verse for you Your arms too short to box with Ra so quit You don't want no kind of conflict Or you'll get stripped as the rhyme is ripped Pick up the pieces now ain't that peace yeah I'm hip Everything I said flows since my intro I plant a thought extend and then grow Holding my pen tightly it might be Controversy at first when I write the Chords of research don't just take it for granted When I'm gone my mind remains a planet If I keep building, and teach the children So when they read in between the lines it's filled in I break to meditate, not a peep, concentrate Till I'm deep awake, but not asleep At the same time rising and advertising What is true, keep advising you to stay wise And I'm untouchable [Verse 2] Coming over the bridge take a peak at the skyline Cause that's how I shine not only when I rhyme My culture's making me stronger, mentally Physically I'm powerful, poetry I invent'll be Labelled as art placed in a museum Style'll make scenery, now you see 'em Exhibit a knowledge that's packed and filled with Nothing illiterate it's facts I build with My mind's untouchable which means intangible Contents never dense it's understandable I study life so I can live it the right way No time to hear what another brother might say Why sell a capsule of crack I don't have to I rhyme and sign million dollar contracts to Put message on records that's braced with hard ba** Smuggling microphones, this ain't Scarface Whoever talked that talk, I wanna hawk And don't try to escape from New York Across a 110th Street looking for a problem It's hell up in Harlem, watch Ra solve 'em I hear the music clear as I get near The 125th Street Apollo Theater Take a step back when I rap and step up to you I'm untouchable [Verse 3] Put on my thinking cap pump the track Test your reflex relax but in contact You fold and lose control so hold your partner closer You're supposed to keep your composure But you hear the drumset go then it gets so hype It's like nitro, opponents get petro Remember the trademark left by the R That's never soft or smooth it's coming off the hardest In effect, you could die-tect the imposter Taking my props, Rakim is still proper I'm a prophet, you can't stop it, when I drop it Everything I say, coincide with the topic Thoughts bounce around till my skull is fractured Inside my brain it's all manufactured As we go deeper it's hard to find Don't even think about it, cause you can't read my mind It's clear so therefore you need a ear or inclined In the mind with some kind of idea for The style I'm advertising what is true Keep advising you to stay wise and the mind Is untouchable
