Rhymes and Ammo The Roots (Ft. Talib Kweli)

[Intro: Black Thought]
'Cause when I put rhymes in they minds, yo
For all y'all folks who were hopin and wishin
And I can assault, tryin'a take my position
Stop wishin, and sit yourself back and listen to
A'yo, cause when I put rhymes in they minds yo
For all y'all folks who were hopin and wishin
And I can assault, tryin'a take my position
Stop wishin, and sit your ass back
Uh, yo

[Chorus: Black Thought + Talib Kweli]
Ayo, when I say, "Pump that," y'all say, "Shit up"
Pump that! Shit up! Pump that! Shit up!
When I say, "Stand up," y'all say, "Get up"
Stand up! Get up! Stand up! Get up!
When I say, "Rise up," y'all say, "Now"
Rise up! Now! Rise up! Now!
When I say, "Lick a shot," say, "Blaow"
Lick a shot! Blaow! Lick a shot! Blaow!

[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Ayo, everybody on they jawns
Cartoons is hardcore porn
It ain't no afterschool paper routes, mowin' lawns
Kids got backpacks full of yayo and heron
Coming to school shootin' up the auditorium
Yo, it's anthrax maniacs on the TV
The least of y'all worries should be Thought's CD
The chairman of the board coppin' twice weekly
They done caught the minister with a pork BLT
If my shit ain't hot, it probably try to drive me
Psyhce, it's somethin' I can never let myself see
Can't see, I'm thorough-bread, nothin' fancy
The maker, no matter what the circumstance be
It's the principle, pillowcase full of nickel
Smack like a mean kid do, leave him crippled
Keep talkin' greasey, I'mma big-lip you
Ayo, your man'll get slid with you
You and the squad takin to galoshes
I hold the engineer for hostage
And spit from a dirty cartridge
It's 'L' for whoever try to front on Thought's shit
I'm sendin' them goons to your mom's apartment
