[Verse 1]
[D]Earthboy, Illy Al, Solo, Jeremity,
Mr. Moff, Manterra
Select your [Bm]weapon of [D]choice
and just get em like
[Bm]Earthboy, [D]Illy Al, [Bm]Solo, Jeremity,
[D]Mr.[C] Mof[D]f, Man[Bm]terra[D]
[C]Selec[D]t your wea[Bm]pon of cho[D]ice
and just get em like
Yeah, last [Bm]night my rhymes
[D]brought the same ef[C]fect as mor[D]tars
Told [Bm]from [D]the critics' corners
to [C]the record author[D]s
Left [Bm]heads a mess,
[D]trauma and [C]stress disorder[D]s
Wrecking [Bm]balls with [D]all respect
to the pecking order
[Bm]Fine, tell them [D]take aim at [C]my mob,
I hope [D]it pays [Bm]off
It's the only [D]shot that they [C]got,
so [D]justify that
[Bm]And say what y[D]ou want, mantra [C]man,
I think [D]the world's gone [Bm]mad
I'm [D]about to lose the plot
On a beat, facing [Bm]a six MC,
[D]single file, [C]firing squad
[D]No word [Bm]of which shot, [D]signed it off,
[C]darling God [D]gave a hot[Bm]line to God
[D]Code of honor means it's never spoke,
[Bm]since we [D]don't get picked to spot
What? Reneg[Bm]ades separ
[D]ate threats from [C]jokes
Now [D]most ain't gonna [Bm]catch us,
[D]most ain't getting [C]close
No, [D]we dodge [Bm]left,
then we [D]hook and ride,
[C]hook and un[D]hook and lie
[Bm]O .B .C.[D] tracks when you die
Last [Bm]night my rhymes [D]started [C]a revolution
[D]Tell you [Bm]the truth,
it was [D]evidently an effin' nuisance
Had [Bm]the hippies following [D]me
for the best solution
Peeps seeking retribution
for the destitution
But I [Bm]didn't have [D]a solution at [C]all
[D]Still there's a [Bm]mural of my [D]name
up on the wall
They had my [Bm]face silhou[D]etted
for the [C]flag bearers
[D]Now I'm [Bm]like take a bearer,
[D]famous facial hair wearer
But the difference is, I ain't got no message
I was just freestylin', I was just flexin'
See, they predicted my answers,
no question
Misconstrued my message,
man, man, misdirection
I didn't [Bm]mean to get the [D]people in a riot of
Had them [Bm]private eyes
[D]watchin' me since 99
The year I [Bm]started rhymin',
[D]but I'm just [C]a quiet guy
[D]So I'm sayin' [Bm]sayonara [D]with a
sip of cyanide
Earthborn, [Bm]get him Ili[D]ad, [C]get him
[D]So lo, [Bm]get h[Dm]im Jeremity, go [C]get him
Mr. [D]Mark, go [Bm]get him Man[D]terra,
no [C]questions
Se[D]lect your [Bm]weapon of choice
and just [D]get him
Earthborn, [Bm]get him
[D]In the hour, [Bm]solo, to [D]remedy,
[C]Mr. [D]Mark, Man[Bm]terra[D]
No [C]question,
[D]select your [Bm]weapon of [D]choice and just tell
Yo, [Bm]last night my [D]rhymes
took [C]a man's life
[D]Now [Bm]I'm searching for [D]the perfect [C]alibi
[D]They had [Bm]to scatter and
[D]hide inside [C]terraces
Ter[D]rified and [Bm]panicked,
yelling [D]terror from the sky
Residents [Bm]gave my de[D]scription to police
A disturber of the peace
and a menace to the streets
Provided eye[Bm]witnesses,
[D]now they [C]want fingerprints
[D]This is ridicu[Bm]lous,
I [D]didn't kill him, my lyrics did
The flow, [Bm]it sounded like [D]an air raid
[C]He was just [D]one of the unluck
[Bm]y ones
[D]Touched by [C]the sound wave
[D]But no [Bm]way that he could
[D]withstand it[C]s impact
[D]The syntax, [Bm]bad inflection,
[D]arrested his cardiac
Hey yo, last night my [Bm]rhyme
made [D]a man over[C]dose
Came [D]home to find [Bm]some lines
in [D]an open envelope
Couldn't let it go [Bm]to waste
Had to [D]take a dip, get a taste
Now he's just an[Bm]other name [D]on the form
For an autopsy report
[Bm]stored in [D]the coroner's [C]office
Problem [D]was, lack of [Bm]knowledge
is the [D]drug when he's [C]on it
It's kinda [D]subtle if you [Bm]listen
But it [D]bubbles in the [C]system
Like in [D]Spring Valley mis[Bm]sions
When we [D]were just some kids
and smelling like teen [Bm]spirits
Could[D]n't see the [C]limits
in a [D]fetal posi[Bm]tion
on the [D]kitchen floor
[C]Got false and [Bm]I froze for a minute,
put my [D]finger on [C]the pulse
[D]And too late, [Bm]his moment was gone
[D]Last night [Bm]they called me in
an[D]d brought me in [C]for manslaughter
[D]Four corners [Bm]caught me
on a [D]re cording on [C]a camcorder[D]
Reported [Bm]mortars in [D]the chorus
piece [C]of court order
[D]And with the drop followed rigor mortis
I'm all for it,
[Bm]your mind's drawn [D]an d forecorded
[C]Moral [D]ma jority are [Bm]mortified,
[D]they call it morbid
[C]Like it [D]can be aborted
[Bm]with the applause [D]that we afforded
[C]I can hear the [D]sirens [Bm]ring out,
we [D]ignored them
The meta[Bm]phors that teleported
you [D]to heaven's door
The string of words that strangle herds
like they kettle cords
The ashes of a man of peace,
the ink of man of war
Go ahead, make a martyr of me,
we got many more
Earthborn, [Bm]get em, i[D]n the hour, [C]get em
So[D]lo, [Bm]get em, dual[Dm]ity, go [C]get em
Mr. [D]Musk, go [Bm]get em, man t[D]error,
no [C]questions
Se[D]lect your [Bm]weapon of choice
and just [D]dead em
Earthborn, [Bm]in th[D]e hour, so[Bm]lo, to r[D]emedy, M[C]r. M[D]op,
[Bm]Manterra[D], select[C] your [D]weapon o[Bm]f choice[D]
and just do it all
Last [Bm]night my rhymes [D]had
the planet fooled,
smoking mirrors [Bm]transformed
[D]an ordinary [C]Joe to Daddy [D]Cool
The [Bm]greatest trick [D]the devil ever pulled,
hypnotized civil[Bm]ized people
[D]to remind them that they're animals
The [Bm]force unstop[D]pable,
primitive instinct kicks [Bm]in,
it des[D]cends to mob [C]rule
Like [D]some sick,
twis[Bm]ted game [D]of Simon Says
[C]Get em [D]up, got em up, good,
get em up higher then
Perfect [Bm]score every [D]time, like [C]9 to 10
[D]It's Black [Bm]Magic,
[D]my riddles pull [C]a rabbit out [D]the hatchet
Like [Bm]Siddle in [D]the Ashes,
[C]just slide [D]a hand my [Bm]man
Nothing [D]more than a masterful
distraction
Masterful distraction,
masterful distraction
Masterful distraction
