Concerto Of The Desperado (Album Version|Explicit) - The Roots

Written by：Lionel Bart

The concerto of the desperado

R double O T S check the flow

If you know like I know then you know the motto

That's all the fraud sh*t got to go yo

In the glow of the moon over the melancholy metro

My poetry is set like a U F O

The maestro the lyricist concerto

My physical play the role of a vessel

The level of my lyrics law manifesto

My thoughts wrestle and attack with the

Killer instincts of a gorilla stronger than Samson

Without vanilla my soliloquoy profess my ability

To just stimulate you like the best sensimilla

The halflife the Illadel L P O phila proceed

Hither is my death flower blow your tower

To smithereens to fiends catch another rhyme gripper

Deeper than the meditations of a hidden worshiper

Unorthodox hip hop minister minister

Then a serengeti cheetah my thoughts with the

You lose your balance when the sound hits ya

So check for the fifth militia

A poet's under pressure stressing that you get the picture

Even if it means you gotta hang over the banister

I pull a microphone on any pistol brandisher

And take advantage of ya because you amateur

Styles gunning down your sound man and manager what

This how we do it in the year for nine six

With this delivering attack on pointless rap sh*t

Breakin M C's down to fractions tell your squadron

It's time to go to war we spar reaction

The concerto of the desperado

R double O T S check the flow

If you know like I know then you know the motto

That's the fake sh*t got to go hey yo

I'ts the concerto of the desperado

R double O T S check the flow

If you know like I know then you know the motto

That's all the fraud sh*t got to go yo

The implorer the universe explorer

Treat M C's like the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah

Leavin these niggaz open like a box of Pandora

With styles that's newer than the world order

Approximately three quarters of y'all are water

I straight deport ya

Then orchestrate your torture with roots of culture

The pill brimmage to the line of scrimmage up against your image

Where life is a heist and the strong get a percentage

It's ill as a war and within it I'm the lieutenant

That surrounds you like a Peninsula to snatch the pennant

You fold like Japan's futons and fans

While I design a plan to make a rapper step

Like a pedestrian I crush a mountain into grands of sand

Your pain stains the cannon of the mic inserted into the stand

The desperado that refuse to follow

The lip afficianado break you up into parts like a bottle

I deep like the dark of the night niggaz

Make it the sweetest sound silly when they talk on the mic

They use the simple back and forth the same

Old rhythm that's plain I'd rather ultra magnetize your brain

It's the hip hop purist that leave you lost like a tourist

Inside the kurbis niggaz is bringin up performance

As we breakin 'em down to fractions

Tell your squadron

It's time to go to war we spar reaction

The concerto of the desperado

R double O T S check the flow

If you know like I know then you know the motto

And that's the fake sh*t got to go yo

It's the concerto of the desperado

R double O T S check the flow

If you know like I know then you know the motto

That's all the fraud sh*t got to go ya

Sh*t got to go
