3-2-1 Contact
03:02
|
|||
Intro:
01 Contact, is the answer, is the reason,
02 that everything happens, revealing the truth
03 Contact, is the secret, is the moment,
04 when everything happens, recording the proof
Chorus:
01 Yo, first things first, Hip-Hop died on Earth, disperse
02 throw your hands to the universe
03 my call alerts, all the people up on the set
04 I'm ripping the microphone & you ain't seen nothing yet
05 Yo, first things first, Hip-Hop died on Earth, disperse
06 throw your hands to the universe
07 my call alerts, all the people up on the set
08 I'm ripping the microphone & you ain't seen nothing yet
Verse One:
01 (Contact) All systems (go!) we have lift-off
02 we out the atmosphere, it's too late to get off
03 seeing Earth out the window & it's getting flicked off
04 about to make the jump to hyper-space & quickly get lost
05 in the depths of space in fate's hands
06 disposed of the corporate mandates & formulated the plans
07 for the relocation of Hip-Hop's home base
08 where there was just a planet now there's just empty space
09 (so don't panic, but the planet's just been destroyed)
10 we got off just in time, they said I was just being paranoid
11 we need to get this cargo to a safe location
12 they're gunna be trying to stop us from reaching our destination
13 the first priority is saving, the artifacts
14 publications, photographs, cassettes, CDs & wax
15 captured corporate spies will get dropped out the airlock
16 thanks for stopping in, I hope you gotta lotta oxygen
"Now wait a minute! Don't get us wrong, good, hi-fidelity is wonderful sound. Just listen to it."
Breakdown:
01 As I concentrate, build it up & contemplate
02 rise & elevate, evaluate & anticipate
03 animate & invigorate, innovate & resuscitate
04 & regenerate this Hip-Hop that you love to hate
05 agitate, make me late, dictate, but I can't escape
06 watch it culminate, state to state, when I rush the gate
07 reciprocate, but who can relate, when I devastate
08 & illuminate with my innate capabilities
Verse Two:
01 (Contact) the alliance, warn 'em of the coming violence
02 we need to recruit pilots, & broadcast the defiance
03 live from Quasar 3C-273
04 the original Hip-Hop radio galaxy
05 (bwoop) the central computer's alerting me
06 to an anomaly interfering with radio frequency
07 up to the bridge to identify, the unidentified entity
08 a full fleet of discreet, cloaked battle ships
09 about to let them know that we can't coexist
10 they break formation like Galaga, make me wanna Astroflip
11 send communication let em know they not slick for that,
12 "they'd better be quick to react & respond back!"
13 so we prepare for combat, gear up & make contact
14 attack-mode battle plan, ready to launch that
15 trying to catch us off guard? & we'll quickly block that
16 & stomp that, (yo, it's like that?) It's like that!
"What you have heard, is just a sample, of a new miracle in sound recording. A sample of the hours of enjoyment that are yours with..."

12 I’ma conquer like Kull, but get to my head, I won’t let it
13 More problems get presented? More solutions get invented
14 aggressions gotta get vented, before I start to regret it
15 comprehend it? It’s the control & the credit

05 you’ll get stuck like static, or stuck like a magnet
06 stuck like you’re behind an accident in rush hour traffic
07 you'll get stuck like a hatchet, or stuck like a cabinet
08 stuck like the bill you get, when someone stole your plastic
09 My time is valuable so please don’t elapse it, with out advancing it
10 or your throat, I’ma collapse it
11 I’m adamant, for this art form, I’m passionate
12 saving Hip-Hop? I’m trying to save the damn planet
13 & see how dope I can get, yo, I’m running rampant
14 forever attacking it, trying to contain the contaminant
15 you think that you slick, plus you living slanted

05 really yo, you can't contain it
06 hard to recreate it, replay it or even name it
07 No need to rearrange it once the music's been created
08 the arrangement is felt, from the dance hall to the basement
09 With that little hesitation, then coming right back with it
10 you can't fight it, or quit it or get rid of it
11 like saying can I kick it? and ya'll saying “yes you can!”
12 up in the jam, when the beet starts bumping
13 When the lyrics come in, you let me tell you something

02 and I'm seeing all this style and technique
03 working it week after week, compiling beet after beet
04 writing rhymes on receipts and free-styling in my sleep
05 working with a blank canvas, fill it up, section by section
06 build it up, track by track it's all connected
07 every letter, every syllable, every word and sentence
08 every verse, every song and LP's perfected
09 This is dedication, presented in, stereo with no degradation
10 that's why emcee, is my designation
11 This is only a demonstration, (&) I'm just giving you a taste
12 up in the place, making you want to get with this (&)
13 I'm coming equipped with the equipment to flip this
14 and rip this, like 30,000 used concert tickets
15 I'm gunna be going for what I can get when I get up in the mix (&)
16 (when it's time to go all out you be like damn he flipped)
Chorus Three:
01 I get up in the jam and damn kid I kill it!
02 Herb-One be the man, yo peep my manuscript
03 yo peep my manuscript when I (do it like this)
04 (&) (when it's time to go all out you be like damn he flipped)
05 I get up in the place, and be lacing the mix
06 once you, feeling the bass, yo you can't resist
07 yo, you can't resist when I (do it like this)
08 (&) (when it's time to go all out you be like damn he flipped)

01 Yo, you just can't deny, when push comes to shove
02 yo, I'm doing it for the love, yo, I'm feeling it from above
03 it was fly like a dove, why the hell you settling?
04 realities setting in, Hip-Hop's been my medicine
05 since day one, I've been addicted & to get anything else done
06 I need to be restricted
07 from the amount of time I'm in my studio chair
08 surrounded by the sound waves traveling through the air
09 So breathe in, hold it in—& then exhale,
10 excel & prevail & I'ma be the next trailblazer
11 to make my own path & follow it
12 continent to continent, connected like an electrical conduit
13 hit the circuit, then flip it, watch the power surge
14 throw on some boom bap & watch me get the urge, to spit
15 I'm learning as I'm going, flowing with what I'm feeling
16 doing & dealing with what I'm knowing, showing & proving, yo!
17 to each his own, when zoning out to the beat on repeat
18 so complete, yo, I'm bringing it with the heat, magnifique
19 so unique, making all y'all obsolete
20 so it's a must that I bust yo ass & yo, I gotta say peace!
