Heavy metal thing, rock,
wit Mos and Pos and us
Written flows get broke
down by the comas
From L.I. lawn,

And let it fall a little too much
I let Tone touch my ears to
let the bullshit disappear

This fella, se pone feo quando llego
I still be shoutin' out cats
in San Diego

and I'm still doin the huevo
I still be putting it down, till I'm a viejo
Man, you can't tell me
nothin' about the juego
leggo my eggo
Yet you insist upon playin'
wit fuego
Que eso? Tu no sabe mi sonido
Siempre ganamos, nunca perdimos
Para quien? Blanco, Negro, Latino
Del mundo, cuando junto,
que profundo
Que eso? Tu no sabe mi sonido
Siempre ganamos, nunca perdimos
Corillo, so my street folk come unidos
