Black Thought
Rhymes and Ammo/Thirsty! (Remix)
[Intro: Black Thought]
Sound! (Sound) Bombing! (Bombing)
Cause when I put rhymes in they minds yo
For all y'all folks who were hopin and wishin
And I can assault, tryin'a take my position
Stop wishin, and sit yourself back and listen to
A'yo, cause when I put rhymes in they minds yo
For all y'all folks who were hopin and wishin
And I can assault, tryin'a take my position
Stop wishin, and sit your ass back

[Chorus: Black Thought + Dice Raw & Talib Kweli]
Ayo, when I say, "Pump that," y'all say, "Shit up"
Pump that! Shit up! Pump that! Shit up!
When I say, "Stand up," y'all say, "Get up"
Stand up! Get up! Stand up! Get up!
When I say, "Rise up," y'all say, "Now"
Rise up! Now! Rise up! Now!
When I say, "Lick a shot," say, "Blaow"
Lick a shot! Blaow! Lick a shot! Blaow!

[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Ayo, everybody on they jawns
Cartoons is hardcore porn
It ain't no afterschool paper routes and mowin lawns
Kids got backpacks full of yayo and heron
Coming to school shootin up the auditorium
Yo its anthrax maniacs on the TV
The least of y'all worries should be Thought's cd
The chairman of the board coppin twice weekly
They done caught the minister with a pork b.l.t
If my shit ain't hot, it probly try to drive me
Psyhce, its somethin I can never let myself see
Can't see, I'm thorough-bread, nothin' fancy
The maker, no matter what the circumstance be
Its the principle, pillowcase full of nickels
Smack like a mean kid do, leave him crippled
Keep talkin' greasey, I'mma big-lip you
Ayo, your man'll get slid with you
You and the squad takin to galoshes
I hold the engineer for hostage
And spit from a dirty cartridge
It's L for whoever try to front on Thought's shit
I'm sendin' them goons to your mom's apartment
[Chorus: Black Thought + Dice Raw & Talib Kweli]
Ayo, when I say, "Pump that," y'all say, "Shit up"
Pump that! Shit up! Pump that! Shit up!
When I say, "Stand up," y'all say, "Get up"
Stand up! Get up! Stand up! Get up!
When I say, "Rise up," y'all say, "Now"
Rise up! Now! Rise up! Now!
When I say, "Lick a shot," say, "Blaow"
Lick a shot! Blaow! Lick a shot! Blaow!

[Verse 2: Dice Raw]
Ayo, I'm dancin' on the edge of insanity
And rhymin' like its the end of humanity
Still people from the old neighborhood can't stand to see me
Turn around and tell girls we like family
What up with all that jokin', and calamity
Behind the laughter, they thinkin' about jammin' me
But they don't know, I got somethin' for them
But I ain't with that negative vibe, so fuck all that
I've earned a lot from this game, and sacrificed more
Stand here a new man but I'm still the old boy
They claimin' they sell but I'm still the old boss
Sometimes wings get clipped, we all hit the floor
But today though, its Black Thought, Kweli, and Raw
You can be sure that we got our eyes on y'all
Watchin' different artists rise and fall
Motherfuckers jumpin' ship like we came to rob at y'all
[Chorus: Black Thought + Dice Raw & Talib Kweli]
Ayo, when I say, "Pump that," y'all say, "Shit up"
Pump that! Shit up! Pump that! Shit up!
When I say, "Stand up," y'all say, "Get up"
Stand up! Get up! Stand up! Get up!
When I say, "Rise up," y'all say, "Now"
Rise up! Now! Rise up! Now!
When I say, "Lick a shot," say, "Blaow"
Lick a shot! Blaow! Lick a shot! Blaow!

[Verse 3: Talib Kweli]
Kweli, sittin back in the cut like Res
In a constant peace, call me fantastic like I cut the grease
Baracudas movin and canoein sippin amaretto
I'm a ruler of my temple, what I do to instrumentals
Instrumentals is the development of these n***as mentals
Tears in your eyes like this moment is sentimental
Your fundamentally floored, philosophically bored
Disturbed like the eighth floor of your hospital ward
You've GOT to appoint n***as to raise the bar
Muslims praise Allah, Christians praise the God
Rastas, they say Jah
They find a way to rhyme with the pallet like fine wine
And make you say ahhh
Guess who's back?
The game needed improvement
Can't spit the bullshit no more, you sound stupid
I'm a shark in the water with constant movement
Influenced by music since a truant yo
This is how we do it yo
[Chorus: Black Thought + Dice Raw & Talib Kweli]
Ayo, when I say, "Pump that," y'all say, "Shit up"
Pump that! Shit up! Pump that! Shit up!
When I say, "Stand up," y'all say, "Get up"
Stand up! Get up! Stand up! Get up!
When I say, "Rise up," y'all say, "Now"
Rise up! Now! Rise up! Now!
When I say, "Lick a shot," say, "Blaow"
Lick a shot! Blaow! Lick a shot! Blaow!

Ayo, when I say, "Pump that," y'all say, "Shit up"
Pump that! Shit up! Pump that! Shit up!
When I say, "Stand up," y'all say, "Get up"
Stand up! Get up! Stand up! Get up!
When I say, "Rise up," y'all say, "Now"
Rise up! Now! Rise up! Now!
When I say, "Lick a shot," say, "Blaow"
Lick a shot! Blaow! Lick a shot! Blaow!
