Akrobatik - “Live”

[Verse 1: Akrobatik]
Yo, mics get torn like ligaments. Facing Jared
Bridgeman is like facing the 54th Regiment
Your rap battalion’ll get injured coming in
Like battle cats. See Ak’ and then they’re leaving like [?]
The lyrical, African, star-throwing street ninja
Got you glamourous niggas stranded like ginger
Hip hop needs a new Avenger. Yes, my name
Is Jared, but I’m not no pretender. Nerve-bender
Emcees who want to bring calamity: chill. I’ll bring
The horror like Amityville. And, from my quill, comes
An arrow in the form of a rhyme to pierce your bone
Marrow while informing your mind. And when you’re looking for
The culprit, it’s too late. I’ve been gone with
The Akrobatik steez like Lynn Swann, the human
Steel Curtain giving emcees a real hurting
Who want to test the skills but they don’t feel certain
(Live, live, live, live)

[Verse 2: Akrobatik]
You and your mic have suffered a pathetic breakup
For trying to tamper with my verbal genetic makeup (Yo)
Wake up. Akrobatik’s in the vicinity
Along with me is hip hop’s holy trinity: beats, rhymes
And life. Coming to extract the trife
And slice like a knife through all your rhyme cyphs
Encasing feeble souls in bronze, experimenting on
Their brains to find out why they turn to pimps, hoes, and Johns
(What?) Break their intellectual bonds and shit
Is cool like The Fonz, bygones is bygones
My style swarms like Hornets, but not from Charlotte
The emcee is Ak’, the reaction is: aww shit!
Coming with the force of fifty thousand mosh pits
Waving my index like Mutombo when I toss shit
Live (Live, live, live). I get live. I will survive
Akrobatik never taking no dive—that ain’t no jive, yo

[Bridge 1: Akrobatik]
(Live, live, live) Yo, Mr. Akrobatik gets
(Live, live) I refuse to not get
(Live, live, live) Yo, yo, yo, we’re getting
(Live, live) Yo, yo, we bring the

[Verse 3: Akrobatik]
Yo, I’ll push through like the date of my birth
Constantly on the rise like the state of my worth
Rotating like the weight of the Earth on its axis
You want the recipe, so you sent emails and faxes
But you’re denied access—it’s classified
Anybody said that Ak’ came wack? Their ass is lying
That goes for college professors, lovers, rappers, and crowds
I ripped through every one of them and left without a shroud
Of evidence. My shit thumps through ghetto residence
I see you backing up and I can understand your hesitance
It’s only natural to feel some apprehension
Because I got a master’s degree in wack prevention
(What?) And if you need to reach me, let me mention
It’s 1-8-8-8-TRUESKILL—here’s my extension
24/7 365—that’s
The time that Akrobatik gets (Live, live, live, live)
