Whatcha' Got

I came in the door nineteen eighty four
 Paint on the wall got chased by the law
 Once got soul in the place full of flow
 Was never given the zone had to create my own
 As clean as the nose on my face that I placed on the stone
 Had to stake my claim to the thrown
 Ain't no mistaken the sacred in his tone
 Ali the new name by which greatness is known
 Ya'll act like seeing is a new sport
 Your too inexperienced your teeth are too short
 Every culture has a right to passage
 You wanna bypass it and sell me your practice
 One for the lunch money
 I dont run from you punch-drunk dummies
 I invite you all to come for me
 I said I'd shot hungry when it wasn't sunny
 I been here long after y'all are done humpin'
 Talk to me when you've done somthing
 Other than swing back n' forth from hating to nut pumping
 No, all criticism isn't constructive
 Some need to be destructed, your done with
 And either you retire to the sideline
 or imbrace this time, this rhyme with your eyes wide open
 Shit won't have to earn them accolades
 A-N-T gonna take you all back to phase one
 Yes Yes y'all you dont stop
 Now come alive A-N-T and give me what you got
 Brother Ali rock shock the house we most definitely
 We bout to turn your doubt y'all
 A yes yes y'all and you dont dare stop
 Well come alive A-N-T and give me what you got
 Brother Ali rock shocking the house we most definitely
 (scratching:) (the way I feel now I just got to rock)
 Ya'll ain't heard nothing I gave you your first lesson
 From what you discussin' over the percussion you
 Never compare to me
 You a parent tearin, repeating what you hear fly through the airwaves
 carelessly
 The meaning get lost in translation
 You a copy of the authors first page
 Counterfeit money, only get it in small denomination
 You'll never be prominent - face it your imitation
 Equal sacrament, sea bass generic ass
 Sprayin' through closed concerts simulacrum
 We used to distribute our music ourselves
 Our records shouldn't even be held on the same shelve
 Its bad enough they put y'all with 'rock the bells'
 Clean shaven culture we're best to be involved in it
 Ya'll will sqaunder in it
 No need to think for a minute by pushing limits
 you can see a pond to fish in
 And you will get strangled by your lines
 Whether your anger lingers sayin' ryhmes in due time
 Send your dues back to shoe shines and clip them coupons
 You a? lie to you open your brew on
 You slither out from under a rock
 and then present yourself for something you not
 But brother you jock
 Try true hip hop Preston forgot
 Swing it on the first fight and mother fucker I spot
 What up! Not
 I would love nothing more than to bust your box
 and blood clot a porn spot
 Three things I got I love'em alot
 Do anything to protect them from the vultures of block
 Hover above on the block, you mother fuckers better not
 Yes Yes y'all you dont dare stop
 Now come alive A-N-T and give me what you got!
 Brother Ali rock shock the house most definitely
 We gonna turn your doubt y'all
 Yes yes y'all you dont dare stop
 Well come alive A-N-T and give me what you got!
 Brother Ali rock shock the house most definitely
 We bout to turn you out y'all
 The champion is back with his man again
 Crack the book open and fill another chapter in
 And we just wont stop come alive rhymesayer give me what you got Ah!
