Rakim is gonna radiate and nothing's equivalent Nothin' can harm me, why try to bar me? You couldn't f** around THE RA, with an army You'll get wrecked by the architect, so respect him I disconnect 'em, soon as I inject 'em, with radiation Put 'em by the basement, bust his chest open Bash his face in, let it split him Since he brought his main man wit' him He ask me how I did 'em, I let the rhythm hit 'em Reprise: Let it hit 'em Verse 3: Dance floor's dangerous, packed in like a briefcase Rhythm with real rough rhyme, beats with deep ba** Girls with tight pants, maybe they might dance Tonight if the R's on the mic, there's a slight chance The crowd is crucial, emcee grounds are neutral Now that you're here, let me introduce you Get ready, I'm hard to read, like graffiti But steady, science I drop is real heavy Radiant energy, that'll be the penalty Touch the third rail, on the pain of remedy The prescription's one every hour, now it's a HABIT Ya need another hit, from the freestyle fanatic Attention: follow directions, real close Keep out of reach of children, beware of overdose Too many milligram, NO ONE made an iller jam My rhyme, is the rhythm of thoughts that k** a man Ideas for the ear to fear, might split him He'll never forget 'em, he'll rest in peace wit' 'em At least when he left, he'll know what hit him The last breath of the words of d**h, was the rhythm Reprise: Let it hit 'em (x4) Verse 4: Now throw you hands in the air and yo, go Rakim will do the rest of this slow If I speed they know, you'll blow the hell up If I slow up they'll catch up, hell no Wicked as I kicked it, don't need to remix it Cause I prefixed it, reversed and switched it To perform to perfection, section for section Rhymes keep connectin', ya guessin' what's next and Blood pressure rises, ya damn near lost it Ya hit the ground burnin', and woke up frostbit Cause when I explained, ya can't complain for pain Travel through the brain, hit a vein, then remain Let it radiate, vibes will vibrate, why did you violate? Now I'm'ma have to let the style break Moans now, the tone is ingrown After this here's thrown, gimme another microphone Before I get that, fifi I met Whisper," I wanna reach her intellect" Kiss her, cause I wanna give her the most respect So I shine and let the write reflect Hold her, mold her, make her feel older Lay her on my shoulder, everything I told her Makes her feel secure, whenever I'm wit' her And you know how I did her, me and the rhythm hit her
