[Chorus: Del the Funky Homosapien]
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
[Verse 1: Casual]
Motherfuckers got me misconstrued now
'Cause the wisdom twistin', who is them makin' a bad decision
Cas' hit hard like a head-on collision
I'm brеakin' niggas down like division
Compositions of perfection got compеtition steady flexin'
I bust raps that clear out they whole section
My thoughts grow in geometric progression
Northwest and, fuckin' with Cas' is disaster
The master could come off the top, plus I write 'em down faster
It's catastrophe when we rock it like NASA
Your ass should be knowin' but you got audacity
Showin' that ass hopin' for a blowin' up fast
But no, I slow your roll when you heard mine
A dose, but a close encounter of the third kind
Casual, international
It's unpassable with mental massive flow
Expendable, one of my rhymes will handle and dismantle you
You flip rhymes for a minute then you flop like sandals do
You sucker MC's ain't fuckin' with these
Hiero hip-hop to the thirty-second degrees
Of course this remorseless, relentless apprentice
Convinces MC's to come back to they senses, huh
A track condensed with elements of eternal excellence
9-6, Hiero, baby, step to this
[Chorus: Del the Funky Homosapien]
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
[Verse 2: Del the Funky Homosapien]
I got 32 megs of rhymes to make you beg
Another peg in the wall or all of the keg (Get faded)
For the narrow-minded, you're gonna find it wide open
The spoken word is never deterred
MC's, compulsive biters, consult with fighters
Of the hip-hop press to get tighter
You need to be ashamed, no style, no name, no
Continuity with all of your foolery
Go back to the drawing board, make sure you're all insured
Before you go to war with the warlord
You sound contrived, far from alive
I try to survive in a world that wants my hide
You taunts collide e with pride and solid steel for real
I couldn't be fake, it wouldn't great (Uh-uh)
I don't fall from grace, I leave you all disgraced
Get a taste of Del to make your brain swell (Mmm)
Well, I never fall off so call off your crew
They circle 'round like sharks to chew
But get blew out the water before the slaughter commences
Upon my rhymes secure from foreign dimensions
I'm pure in intentions with cybernectic extensions
From my nose and lip, conductors
To rupture your dreams and aspirations
Of being down with the Hiero amalgamation
But I rejoice in being your top choice
Moving forward, as it written, it was bitten by the likes of you
'Cause it was sittin' on something tight and new
Plus, better than what you do
So do like me, be free from conventional ways of rhyme and mine's unintentional (Inventive)
Designing new ways and rays with points and joints get sparked and marks get mauled
And leave appalled, at the trash you call lyrics
Let's hear it for Del, you don't have to clear it
[Chorus: Del the Funky Homosapien]
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
[Verse 3: Del the Funky Homosapien]
Fly with the warrior on a whim for him
Brothers bitin' and they only get the stem
R-A-M eradicates them with grim results
When MC's follow me like cults (Come along)
You felt on the bump, now we gotta break you off
And when you cough up blood, you're gonna wish it was a dud
We pull the plug on the dumb, leave it numb
In suspended animation, facin' life imprisonment
Del is innocent but still inventive with wordplay (Aha)
A tongue like a conveyor belt
Making my rhymes felt throughout your frame
And about to claim your brain for my own purposes
With assertiveness, insertin' disc in my SP
For MC's who stress me, they best be prepared
Or get Crunched like Nestle, or Elvis Presley
To get you off my testes
I monitor you MC's so pardon the lack of privacy
While I'm checkin' out the rivalry
[Chorus: Del the Funky Homosapien]
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at? Where you at?)
Checkin' out the rivalry
(Where you at? You wack)
Checkin' out the rivarly
(Where you at? Where you at? Where you at? You wack)
(Where you at?)
