[00:06.94] |
You ready? Let's go! |
[00:15.35] |
Yeah, for those of you that |
[00:19.47] |
want to know what we're all about |
[00:21.27] |
It's like this y'all (c'mon!) |
[00:22.71] |
This is ten percent luck |
[00:24.45] |
Twenty percent skill |
[00:25.73] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[00:28.49] |
Five percent pleasure |
[00:29.69] |
Fifty percent pain |
[00:30.82] |
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name |
[00:33.86] |
Mike<Mike> |
[00:34.94] |
He doesn't need his name up in lights |
[00:36.31] |
He just wants to be heard whether it's the beat or the mic |
[00:39.30] |
He feels so unlike everybody else, alone |
[00:42.34] |
In spite of the fact that some people |
[00:44.46] |
still think that they know him |
[00:45.16] |
But fuck em' |
[00:46.14] |
He knows the code |
[00:47.15] |
It's not about the salary |
[00:48.25] |
It's all about reality and makin' some noise |
[00:50.63] |
Makin' the story |
[00:51.85] |
Makin' sure his clique stays up |
[00:53.49] |
That means when he puts it down Tak's pickin' it up(Let's go!) |
[00:56.82] |
Who the hell is he anyway? |
[00:58.16] |
He never really talks much |
[00:59.68] |
Never concerned with status but still leavin' them star struck |
[01:02.19] |
Humbled through opportunities given to him despite the fact |
[01:05.00] |
That many misjudge him because he makes a livin' from writin raps |
[01:08.10] |
Put it together himself, now the picture connects |
[01:10.48] |
Never askin for someone's help, to get some respect |
[01:13.06] |
He's only focused on what he wrote, his will is beyond reach |
[01:16.52] |
And now when it all unfolds, the skill of an artist |
[01:19.42] |
This is twenty percent skill |
[01:20.63] |
Eighty percent fear |
[01:21.72] |
Be a hundred percent clear 'cause Ryu is ill |
[01:24.52] |
Who would've thought that he'd be the one to set the west in flames |
[01:27.69] |
And I heard him wreckin' with The Crystal Method,Name Of The Game |
[01:30.34] |
Came back dropped Megadef, took 'em to church |
[01:33.05] |
I like 'bleach, man, why you have the stupidest verse? |
[01:35.94] |
This dude is the truth, now everybody be givin' him guest spots |
[01:39.27] |
His stock's through the roof I heard he fuckin' with S-Dot! |
[01:41.81] |
This is ten percent luck |
[01:43.34] |
Twenty percent skill |
[01:44.78] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[01:47.26] |
Five percent pleasure |
[01:49.02] |
Fifty percent pain |
[01:50.34] |
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name |
[01:52.95] |
They call him Ryu, he’s sick |
[01:54.29] |
And he’s spittin fire with Mike |
[01:55.76] |
Got him out the dryer he's hot |
[01:57.04] |
Found him in Fort Minor with Tak |
[01:58.49] |
What a fuckin’ nihilist porcupine |
[02:00.27] |
He's a prick, he's a cock |
[02:01.35] |
The type women want to be with |
[02:02.99] |
And rappers hope he get shot |
[02:04.43] |
Eight years in the makin' |
[02:05.74] |
Patiently waitin to blow |
[02:07.19] |
Now the record with Shinoda's takin' over the globe |
[02:09.86] |
He's got a partner in crime his shit is equally dope |
[02:12.20] |
You won't believe the kind of shit that comes out of this kid's throat |
[02:16.14] |
Tak |
[02:17.14] |
He's not your everyday on the block |
[02:18.35] |
He knows how to work with what he's got |
[02:20.09] |
Makin' his way to the top |
[02:21.32] |
He often gets a comment on his name |
[02:22.94] |
People keep askin him was it given at birth |
[02:25.35] |
Or does it stand for an acronym? |
[02:26.97] |
No, he's livin' proof |
[02:28.50] |
Got him rockin' the booth |
[02:29.54] |
He'll get you buzzin' quicker than a shot of vodka with juice |
[02:32.67] |
Him and his crew are known around as one of the best |
[02:35.45] |
Dedicated to what they do and give a hundred percent |
[02:38.44] |
Forget Mike |
[02:39.07] |
Nobody really knows how or why he works so hard |
[02:42.16] |
It seems like he's never got time |
[02:43.81] |
Because he writes every note and he writes every line |
[02:46.54] |
And I've seen him at work when that light goes on in his mind |
[02:49.27] |
It’s like a design is written in his head every time |
[02:52.05] |
Before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme |
[02:54.95] |
And those motherfuckers he runs with, those kids that he signed |
[02:58.31] |
Ridiculous, without even tryin', how do they do it? |
[03:00.98] |
This is ten percent luck |
[03:02.24] |
Twenty percent skill |
[03:03.62] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[03:06.65] |
Five percent pleasure |
[03:08.12] |
Fifty percent pain |
[03:09.40] |
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name |
[03:12.39] |
This is ten percent luck |
[03:13.68] |
Twenty percent skill |
[03:15.13] |
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will |
[03:17.94] |
Five percent pleasure |
[03:19.13] |
Fifty percent pain |
[03:20.78] |
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name |
[03:23.40] |
