"Eve Of Destruction" lyrics

"Eve Of Destruction"

Eve of destruction rocks the nation
Eve of destruction rocks the nation

You niggas capitalize on lies, surprise open your eyes
Baby girl from Illadel' hear to enhance your lives
Doubted my skills, bet you mad now, shoulda snatched me up
I'm in L.A. now with Dre now, ain't coming back 'cause I'm stuck
Had enough of all the bullshit of selling me dreams
Had enough of fake cats trying to shine off these schemes
But I'm laughing last, down to get this cash with the Aftermath
You happy being local superstar showing ya ass
You talk the most shit, how you politicking moves an'
I crept to the top, shouldn't-a let me catch you snoozing
Me and my management team, laughin' at you while we cruising
'Cause we ain't got nothing to do none of the choices you be choosing

It's the eve of destruction, tracks I be fucking
Cats be fascinated by the styles I be busting
Got you niggas open, got you niggas lusting
Knocking emcees on they backs causing lyrical concussions

I wonder who, which one a them a carry news
An' a gwan like set, they wan dis-dis ya crew
But the lie, other emcees them ready die
When we grab the microphone and praise his like Selassie

Me say me walk like walk like a champion, talk like a champion
Emcees try fi test but them no ready fi di outcome
Guard your windows, close your doors
Fuck that, hide your pens and lock your jaws
Dig that? My verbal skills should be against the laws
You with that? Now light a spliff for the hip-hop 'cause
Lemme hit that, smell the fear, you made me attack
You caused your own extermination not knowing how to act
I thought I warned you not to make me mad you just wouldn't listen
Now you hiding and ducking, prolonging your hip-hop lynching
Talking shit got in too deep and huh
Caught you niggas sleeping huh?
Feeling real fucked up 'cause you couldn't catch me creeping huh?

You little busters make me sick with the dumb shit
Spreading rumors like bitches
Can't turn my back on none a ya'll, probably wind up in stitches
Jealous itches y'all can't scratch, irritate your existence
Trying to cheat your way in this race, knowing you can't go the distance
Running up against the thoroughbred outlasting you all
No matter, how long you train gon' set your self up to fall
'Cause I got stamina, I go as long as you need
Coulda seen a million bitches rhyme but you'll remember me
I be the... new choice of the rap generation
You know my name nigga, basically you my creation
Not greater than the average man but I'm top choice
Kill competition when they listen just by the sound of my voice
