Common F Canibus Making A Name For Ourselves Lyrics

Making A Name For Ourselves Lyrics

Canibus: 

 Yeah, yeah 

 Me and my man Com Sense 

 Rallyin troops like Joseph Stalin 

 Where you at yo? 

  

 Common: 

 I'm bout to make the name Com Sense a name you fear 

 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared 

  

 Canibus: 

 And I'ma make the name Canibus a name you fear 

 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared 

  

 Canibus and Common: 

 That's double for niggaz who ain't mathematically aware 

 (Rakim from "My Melody"(To catch another sucka duck MC out there) 

  

 Common: 

 I can tell by how you write, you the type to run in a fight 

 I hold mics while you hold Sprite 

 Like a broken hearted bitch  

 Don't give no fuck who yo team or who you startin with 

 Cameoed or charted with, I house niggaz like apartments with 

 Mic mechanisms, I dissect a rhythm 

 Move crowds with kinetic wisdom 

 It's like a Malcolm X-orcisim, fuck the rhythm, I hit him 

 I want him got not get him, auction his wack ass off, then bid him 

  

 Canibus: 

 I'm creatin the ultimate verses with perfect lines 

 Puttin together them whether my rhyme one threat at a time 

 So you niggaz need to stop testin me 

 Cuz you know you can't "F" with me 

 Steppin to me with insuperior weaponry 

 Exposin yourself to the verbal radiations 

 Sayin you can defeat me is nothin but speculation 

 Lyrics unravel, faster than bullets travel through barrels 

 Niggaz be diggin my styles like fossils and pterodactyls 

 Who wanna battle? 

 I'm bad to the bone marrow 

 The Earth got one sun but I walk with three shadows 

 With Allah, my supernatural bodyguard 

 Niggaz couldn't touch me if they gave me a massage 

 MCs will compete with lyrics and beats get crushed 

 I'll hit you in your chest so hard, your shoulders will touch 

 What! 

  

 (scratching) 

 Common, steppin to me is like going to the county being a neutron 

 Common, I ain't scared of no nigga 

  

 Common: 

 I persue sound fairs, relaxed like Dru Down's hair 

 Other nigga's rhymes are like gang signs, I throw down theirs 

 On knots, I landed, players get played like Hamlet 

 Supposedly nice, taken for granted like life 

 I write twice and drop singles in record pools 

 Niggaz I'm dunkin like when cops mingle 

 Fuck hip hop jingles, rhymin big words and not sayin shit 

 The click that you came in with accent your flavor wit 

 Like moose, I go to the caves and get niggaz off all fours 

 I'm the shit that's uncalled for, the shit that you fall for 

 Far more advanced than a rapper who's career 

 You could only take a glance, couldn't make the transition 

 >From B-boy to C-note stance 

 I stand in a circumference, the humbleness 

 But in the Chi, bumbleless 

 Was thinkin as a weakness were poetrys in motion 

 Like a bitch, I'm the main feature 

 Amongst hard working teachers and corrupt preachers 

 I make my living off of singles like Latifah 

 In between sheets like reefer with blunted senses 

 You couldn't make a statement if you was from a sentence 

 I'm cold with numb intentions 

  

 (scratching)Fuck with Canibus(x4) 

  

 Canibus: 

 Yo, the Canibus is an animal with a mechanical mandible 

 Comin to damage you, spittin understandable slang at you 

 I be the all seeing lyrical, hammerhead sharp peripheral 

 With 360 degree visual 

 When the signal was given, MCs get biten with venom 

 >From a poisonous algorithm liable to kill 'em 

 My style will get in 'em, way up in 'em 

 My face don't belong in The Source 

 It belongs on the shroud of turan, for certain 

 I grab mics and murder shit 

 It's wickeder than Satan worshippers going to Catholic church services 

 You heard of this 

 The lyrical verbalist, trash herbalist 

 The wrath of my cold-blooded verses is merciless 

 Rap snap, get your ass cracked like bear traps 

 Contaminate your air sacs like tear gas 

 And I swear black, try to battle me, you won't last 

 I'll turn your ass into the artist formerly known as, you gay ass fag 

 I'll blow you to ashes with tactics 

 Strip you naked, then make you hug a cactus, you bastard 

 So phat to be a rap star, takin pictures at music seminars 

 People know who you are 

 Now I got mad shorties that wanna call me 

 Because they saw me, up in The Source chillin on page 40 

 Put this in your CD-ROM 

 www dot Canibus dot com 

 You can find me on the internet talkin to chicks 

 That was sweatin me off the Music Makes Me High remix 

 I be talkin mad trash tryin to get 'em to laugh 

 See, if I click and drag long enough, I'll get the ass 

 Bring it bag to the lab on Mount Prospect Ave. 

 Let your chicken suck me off and send her home in a cab 

 You know how we do, liquid aluminum like the T2 

 Beast from the East part 2, comin to see you 

  

 Common: 

 It's time I made the name Com Sense a name y'all fear 

 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared 

  

 Canibus: 

 Now that I made the name Canibus a name you fear 

 You still scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared 

  

 Common and Canibus: 

 That's double for niggaz who ain't mathematically aware 

 (To catch another sucka duck MC out there) 

  

 Common: 

 Since I made the name Com Sense a name y'all fear 

 Y'all niggaz is scared, I'm your worst nightmare squared 

  

 Canibus: 

 And since I made the name Canibus a name you fear 

 You stay scared, I'm still your worst nightmare squared 

  

 Common and Canibus: 

 That's double for niggaz who ain't mathematically aware
