Lyrics & chords

[Chorus 1]
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known, yo
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
(So all hail the h- h- honorable)

[Verse 1]
It's to my [Am]real ill [Dm]niggas, heavyweight hitters
[Am]Dough getters, fif[Dm]ty ways to make figures
My [Am]niggas, that come on [Dm]the spot
to feel sisters
Like they [Am]hear real spitters
[Dm]and kids on the zigga-ziggas
When it's [Am]ugly, then [Dm]the club is lovely
[Am]Thugs be sipping [Dm]Henessey and bubbly
To my [Am]comrades that [Dm]keep it flaming hot
On dangerous blocks, claiming spots
Where the [Am]goal is to be one
[Dm]of the top-ranked soldiers
[Am]Forty-five [Dm]holders, one of the high rollers
Get re[Am]spect in the hood, [Dm]credit is good
Knock it down [Am]lumberjack style,
[Dm]baby, extra wood
Rock it [Am]all night long, [Dm]the bang-a-thon baby
Keep hanging [Am]on, we like it [Dm]with the lights on
Don't have [Am]to blow twenty thou'
to [Dm]get to know honey's style
Show her the town, steal her heart,
no money down

[Chorus 2]
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known, yo
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
(So all hail the h- h- honorable)

[Verse 2]
How about some [Am]hardcore,
yeah we [Dm]like it raw for sure
Broads on the floor, wall to wall
There's [Am]more at the door, [Dm]players ball to score
'Cause [Am]this right here [Dm]is for all of y'all
Rakim and [Am]Primo, yo I [Dm]got what you need bro
You [Am]go see a show, s[Dm]moke an L, mean yo
And [Am]deejays play [Dm]hits with hard bass kicks
And then they display tricks like The Matrix
Make the [Am]record fly unde[Dm]tected
by the naked eye
So [Am]just feel the vibe
[Dm]'cause your ears never lie
Nowa[Am]days deejays [Dm]bags of tricks, graphic
On some behind the back shit,
catch it and scratch [Am]it[Dm]
[Am]Classic, this kid [Dm]got his craft mastered
[Am]Hands is mad quick [Dm]like he mix with magic
[Dm]Spin it back and forth and grab it,
and know just where it is...
There it is

[Chorus 3]
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known, yo
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
(So all hail the h- h- honorable)

[Verse 3]
To my e[Am]lite peeps
with the [Dm]murderous mystiques
I hit the [Am]streets with beats
and [Dm]they critique for weeks
They be [Am]like "How that kid [Dm]Ra reach the peak?"
Pull out [Am]the heat
and use my [Dm]technique to speak
It's [Am]dangerous,
sit [Dm]calm and explain to kids
What part of the [Am]game this is
and [Dm]foreign languages
They [Am]hold Ra's events in diffe[Dm]rent continent
Put my lyrical contents in monuments
In [Am]ghetto garments,
I [Dm]rock a towel like a pharaoh
[Am]Mind travel,
[Dm]design style like apparel
[Am]My fashions la[Dm]st long
as a lifetime
Cause [Am]I can see the future
[Dm]when the god write rhymes
They're [Am]mad cause I [Dm]managed to reign so long
Like their [Am]chance to make money
[Dm]done came and gone
This is [Am]strictly for my listeners
[Dm]on the corners at night
And the sisters that be keeping this right,
when I be on the mic

[Chorus 4]
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known, yo
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
[Am]I'm inte[Dm]rnationally known
(When I be on the mic)
[Am](Hard[Dm]core... real ill niggas)
