Tribute To The 5th Brother Lyrics

Tribute To The 5th Brother lyrics

f/ RZA







[Kung Fu sample from "The 8 Diagram Invincible Pole Fighter"]



Father, our family was always loyal



You traitors have betrayed our trust



We have been deliberately lured into this battle



To destroy the Yang... AWWW! Father! (yo, yo, yo, yo, yo)







[RZA]



Approach like a ghost, in a thousand men host



Prepare for the battle, all you saw was their shadows



Solomon's thought, was hit on fort, swords drawn



The king in the back, they formatted like pawns



Prepare for the attack, heard the whips crack



Fatal guillotine's took flight, snatch heads, brought them back



Before they can blast, one gun, half a cal., he was done



One fourth was blinded by reflection of the sunlight



Off the shield, the golden blade, golden wheel



Five Element ninja was patrollin' the hill



The enemy face defeat, the reminder of his fleet tried to retreat



To the mountain side, it was countin' on a cage for a safe place to hide



Location was lurked about, brought turned about



Called the men, burned them out



Capture up their leader, made him stiff like an ameba



Broke his bat like semi cheeba



Stuck on poodle, we hold weight like a sumo



Great, fast, like Bruno Sammartino



Burnin' Dominick Alovito and Angelina Lugo



("Six return") ..Yo, yo, yo, yo



I burn mics micro rhymes of White Mike on turnpikes



You'll get sucked by the light



M.C.'s get stuck up by the Bai Me nine strikes



Keep a Tec, all up inside ya R.E.C. Room



Ya crabs, won't fall from the Sun of Neptune



I don't fuck wit dead birds, be the true and living word



God's seen and heard, keep the best part preserved



Then penetrate, ya bodies five major gates



The pulsatin' beat vibrates, and yo' thighs shake



You fruitcake, little tiny small molecular



Miniature, minute, itty bitty, microscopic



Subatomic, fragile, frail, timid, weak



Soft, thuggy, Puffy the Dragon, spineless jellyfish



Can't fuck wit this, Wu-Tang swordplay remains too crisp



You savage, we cripple ("To destroy the Yang... AWW!")



Fuck that..







[9th Prince]



Yo, yo, sorid comics, swallow rhyme toxics



Psychotic logic, insane explosives like bottle rockets



The 9th Prince blowin' sacrifices



Lyrical wolverine, dances wit wolves, lead by Crisis



The Prince wisdom is deep like black holes ultimate Abyss



Recollect digital, that's a death wish



I burn like flame on, Iron Palm



Rhyme in Napalm, fear the God, even to smile like Saddam



Microphone choreographer, picture what I vision like a photographer



The golden flow uno boxer, law and order, fiends warriors



Secret Victoria, defenders of the universe



Creepers creep, Don 10 try to peep before I hit him in his sleep



I'm legendary like Eleven the veteran, from the Mediterranean



Who watched the braveheart, warlord, killa stash, barbarians



The renegade with a hand grenade



Explosion, front locus, will blow ya hearing aid



Causin' those who misunderstood what I had to say to throw shit on stage



But I still reign, grab ya Bandaids ya rhymes cut like switchblades



Yo bring it back







[Kung Fu sample from "The 8 Diagram Invincible Pole Fighter"]



Deliberately lured into this battle



To destroy the Yang... AWW!



At last, in the hope



The last mark



Say ya prayers



Seven have left, six returned (x2)



If this is so..



Seven have left, six returned



Forgive them my son, it's hard to relieve



AWWW! The 5th Brother



You must walk



5th Brother, 5th Brother, 5th Brother



Seven have left, six returned (x2)



The 5th son left the life, follow him



Seven have left, six returned (x2)
