Method Man - Hold the Heater lyrics

[Intro: RZA] Windshield, rappers are like gnats They're gettin' splattered 'pon the windshield Fallin' down like London Bridge, my blade split your onion head Axe that like Paul Bunyan, Meth prefers the gun instead Bong bong, put a hole inside your head [Hook] We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw [Verse 1: Cappadonna] How come the streets don't want me to live? Plus my n***as keep tellin' me fibs But the devil done poisoned my wiz I'm doin' this for my family and kids I'm tryna be wealthy, take my time right and stay healthy Said it before but I don't think nobody felt me Yo tried to understand this hand that this life dealt me I'm on the verge of a whole new makeover My fake friends, they can take it like a takeover I'm ready to eat, I'm ready to grip it Got enemies everywhere, I got chicks that's wicked Sick sh**, n***as doin' wicked a** wig sh** Bid sh**, tellin' jakes that I had the biscuit n***as be wantin' my leftovers I'm like a general that died and lost some of his best soldiers I burn holsters and I k** that dirt religion Murk that pigeon and I shoot the television [Verse 2: U-God] Got that trey pound on you, run down on you Hard boiled n***a, Clan top soil My fam straight royal, I'mma die loyal When them shooters come for you, better throw your flag 'em I'm pure gun oil, let 'em see that hand cannon Foundation strong, never ride a bandwagon Andrew Jacksons, hand-to-hand transaction Cops jumped out, caught him with his pants saggin' Criminal individuals up in here Wild like the theme park ride called The Buccaneer Weed in the Tupperware, throw you off the upper tiers Suweeee, I got all my n***as up in here [Hook] We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw [Bridge: RZA] Imagine the sound of your face scrapin' up against the gate Of a barbed wire fence, this is barbed iron fist Heartthrob, iron dick, hoes slob the nob quick This is odd, so throw it in your iPod quick [Verse 3: GZA] Lifeless activity, constant movement Buyin' elasticity, such improvement Sword held to where it collapses inward Spillin' rhymes if it's Shaolin vineyards RZA had a mixture, then he added sound to the picture Co-author rewrote the scripture Math worked from birth, doubled the net worth Amplified in the time machine of early Earth A two-way radio, simple yet complex Receivers, transmitters, interest to contacts The emergence of the earliest atoms Transform to a level extremely hard to fathom Same soup, different bowl, Wu ceramics Same group on them large-scale dynamics A wave triggered the burst, gla** was shattered Galactic matter served on a graphic platter [Hook] We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw [Verse 4: Method Man] Overachiever, power hungry overeater I95, whip fly like an overseer I'm overconfident but some might say I'm overeager Or overzealous, especially when it's over cheeba I got a soldier's features, I rock the coldest sneakers My sneakers' so cold, can't wear 'em 'less you hold the heater Can't push me over either, that go for dojas I ain't got no love for posers neither, keep my composure I'm focused, tryna roll the reefer, let's turn it up Forget the cope, I'm tryna blow the speaker, that's all he wrote One verse could turn your soul to ether It's time you gave me my respects just like the old Aretha, Mr. Meth [Hook] We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw We keep it rugged We keep it rough We keep it real We keep it raw [Spoken Words]
