Face Off lyrics

Rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

Spirit of a lion describes my soul

Give it up to Zion, then my fire grows

Wishing of a riot inside my lobe

Am I trippin'? Is the highest when I fight my foes?

Bip, I'ma hit 'em with this, you 'bout ta get yo' ass kicked

My technique is so sick, I'm 'bout to make the hit quick

Whole lotta muscle (chea), you don't wanna be in a tussle (chea)

Better than me? That's rubble

You want trouble? What's up, dawg?

Feelings hot to kill a top guerilla

Drop and kneel to pops, I grilled the opp

For real, your clock it yield and stop

Your will is shot, the deal was knock ya 'til you plop

I got the hell comin' your way

You softer than a thing of Yoplait

Never competitive with the better kid, I go kray

Gonna be deaded because I fed it to the mo' graves

When you wake up in that wet blood

Ain't no way you 'bout to get up

How you know that I taxed yo' ass

'Cause you got the motherfuckin' check stub

Always gonna have to pay cost when you steppin' in my way boss

When I build steel and you stay soft, you're gonna punk out when we face off

Rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon'

Rumble there young man, they rumble

Run up, get a combo, quickly help you understand but stay humble

Don't nobody wanna talk about the way of the world

The weight of the world'll make 'em all crumble

And I might stumble, but I pick myself up, brush myself off, my thoughts of a goddamn boss

I am at they neck like I'm Malcolm X, like I'm Dr. King, like I'm Cornell West

Like I'm Huey P., like I'm Booker T., like I'm Rosa Parks, I'ma need my rest

Niggas know what I'm 'bout, I'll run up in yo' house

Feet up all on your couch, sock you right in your mouth

I ain't after no clout, it could really go south

I'm prepared to go to battle whenever there is a bout

I am Muhammad, Ali, I'm payin' the homage, policy is to be honest

I take it beyond it though, I can relate to ebonics and really I hate to be ominous

All of your hate is too obvious, I am the hustle, the muscle, I play for the audience

I am a gangster with knowledge, if you wanna enter the ring, I would hate to be opposite

Jab with the right, jab with the left, jab with the right, now you got 'em all staggerin'

He gon' come back with the right back

With the left that's when you step to the side, now dagger

You gon' be damned if you do, damned if you don't, bastard, I'm like Cassius my swagger

It really don't matter, pardon, I'm hardened, lawless the Martian, kickin' that jargon

Rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon'

Barber cape off how I'm giving a fade

Based off the description I gave

Cut the game off, I'm a Street Fighter

Beat breaks off like the whip on the stage

Hand out, ass whippings my plate

Haters ate off, yeah, get Hitler a steak

It'll be chaos like a emerald chase

When I face off in a Nicolas Cage

Yeah, I'm living in rage

Punch a pussy nigga like I'm fistin' his babe

I was sittin' in the 'spital, goin' mental

Doc had told me they'll forget me, but they didn't, I remember them days

And I don't wanna be Batman, nigga, I'm Bane

Literally how the venom enters my veins

Since a little one, Killa really been sick in the brain

And the more I think about it, my life was twisted (wait)

Reminiscing on when mom and dad would wonder

Why they couldn't reach 'em, like they didn't have my number

Fighting for my sanity, I never had it hunger

Put a nigga under ground quick, that's a bunker

Shock 'em like I'm Master's brother

Better pick your battles, busters halfway under

Hit more times than acupuncture

When it comes to rumbling, I'm Afro thunder

Really it be funny when I kick it to you dummies

How I'm grippin' on this iron when I'm rhyming on the mic

Because it really will get bloody like I'm kicking it with buddies

When I beat a nigga up like I was Iron nigga Mike

I tell 'em they don't wanna tussle when I'm at 'em, they gon' drop

Bet you that he stumble when I jab 'em then I cross

Leave a nigga humble, like Damn, when Kenny dropped

'Cause really we can rumble like Jackie in the Bronx, we gon'

Rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off

They gon' rumble

They gon' take yo' face off (chyeah)

It's about drive, it's about power

We stay hungry, we devour

Put in the work, put in the hours and take what's ours (ahoo)

Black and Samoan in my veins

My culture bangin' with Strange

I change the game, so what's my motherfuckin' name (Rock)

(What they gonna get though?)

Desecration, defamation, if you wanna bring it to the masses

Face to face, now we escalatin', when I have to put boots to asses

Mean on ya, like a dream when I'm rumblin', you're gonna scream mama

So bring drama to the King Brahma (then what?)

Comin' at you with extreme mana

Thank you, brother, Tech N9ne

Thank you, Teremana

One take, that's a wrap

Face off
