"It's true - the Shaolin and the Wu-Tang, could be dangerous!" [Method Man] Uh-huh, Mr. Biggs, Trackmasters (woo!) It's a Wu-Tang official right here y'know [Inspectah Deck] Yeah, the employees of the year yeah we're back to work We took time off, while other rappers got jerked sh**'s bout to change now, it's a shame how Things ain't the same but I'm back in the game now And as we step in the door, we cause panic Yep, the usual suspects, we at it Vet status, y'all went a week with the belt Few chicks felt your style, now you feelin yourself Meet your maker, I dropped you at eight years old I got stock in your flow and crops to sharehold Crops with the prose where cops won't dare go Got top centerfolds too hot to wear clothes Still me - always have and will be Ill G - it's silly to hate but feel free Hey - hear what I say, they gotta pay And my return is like Christ, declare the holiday [Hook: Ron Isley] Back in the game now.. copped me some weed now My people bout to eat now.. sh**'s bout to change now Back in the game now.. all my n***as in the hood now Better catch up now.. sh**'s bout to change now [Method Man] Uh, y'all see I'm in the street strugglin Young dumb and thuggin, give a fu*k about nuttin Stuck at rock bottom, tryin to come up on somethin Pumpin from sundown to sun-up, we hustlin Vision my n***a now get in where you fit in And see prison, as just the high cost of livin the life Ante up cause if you blow the dice On that O-Z, Dorothy ain't goin home tonight That's on e'rythang, put it on the kids and the wife Been buryin my folks ever since they raised the price on the coke Searchin for a quick antidote Mo' money, mo' problems to cope [GZA] We were at the same table when the chips were checked A gamblin +Rebel+ who +Inspects+ the +Deck+ Just when you thought we would fold our hand Against all odds we raised the bet like we changed the plans It was live on air but in between station breaks I was holdin a pair and just made the table stakes Split the demos, put insurance on tapes A safeguard against the crusaders in capes If I double down they say the Gods are sharks If we win against the house they thought the cards was marked We draw hit after hit from a royal flush menu While the dealer promoted the full house venue A spade in the club with the heart to wear diamonds The high roller who got credit upon signin They look puzzled when I shuffle, most of 'em stunned by the hustle Recourse of bluff game's your muscle [Hook] - 0.75X [Raekwon] Say what? ("Shaolin shadowboxing!") [R. Isley] sh**'s bout to change.. [Raekwon the Chef] Aiyyo, on rainy days I sit back and count ways on How to get rich, coolin with a mean ill Jamaican b**h Banana coat matchin with the ratchet Lil' black weave sweatpants style, air force is actin Jump in the 6, kicks look crisp, talkin bout the bird Flow through your hood in the mean tints that's giant It's like the family that flipped on you for lyin Buried you alive, left your who*e cryin We on your floor look more doors Dey ain't ate either, I hope y'all n***as is armed And when we get there, all my n***as in the mix Yeah Shallah Lex, Diamond got me buyin Louis Rich wear [Ghostface k**ah] Most people say the Clan was missin since I got dropped offa radio Overnight your whole style was bitten in the process Everybody switched they names like Whatcha call it, any fast (?) It was the Gods that repped that, sharkskin dark skinned b**hes Clarks from Digi left the game dizzy Ooh got busy, that dancey sh** slid through We had to stay hood cause that's who we been through RZA came through, mastermind got the cash and power Proof that power plastered divine cla**ical lines Mathematical rhymes, the style is unbearable Now n***as with the radical shines It's Ghost-Deini, every coast need me We back motherf**er that's right, it's the W.T.C World Trade Center, Wu-Tang Clan We brought so much heat that we was givin you tans an' sh** [Hook] {*Ron Isley ad libs to fade*}
