Basement Lyrics by Casual

Meanwhile...

1996

[Verse 1: Opio]

To all the paper champs, i got the boxcutter
Excalibur sharp, so when they let the fully chops sputter
I don’t shutter like them other niggas
Straight uncover the charade, with satellite surveillance
Fake is entertainment, they just wanna be famous
Probably get shrimped on the turf, and get they pins stolen
I’m throwing heat like Nolan Bryan in his prime
Targeting those boys with minds with blind fury
Diamond jewelry hanging from the telephone wires
Liars and thieves, i put the squeeze on that ass for real
In the steel thunder dome, handling your master blaster
He’s so charismatic but got plastered
Coming with the drug addict movie star dramatics
And politics, they balling quick like the government
Pulling out the wire pumps cuz it might jump
But at the kevlar conniver survivor
Hieroglyphics enterpriser
Of lies of the next century
So you ain’t pensing me, artillery could never work
I’m the red alert
Coming through your stratosphere flaming
And strangling you suckers till you suffocate

[Verse 2: Casual]

Rappers who wanna handle us, you’re scandalous
Venture into my land of lust
Every rapper is an expansion of my plan to bust
Supernova, supernova sir why the land and dust
Don’t care about your clan cuz
We can get into an act of center, the back with the melodramatic
Fanatics I’m a lighting bolt
Your static, i keep an automatic in the attic
Your rhymes have been shattered, by the addictive, very descriptive
Tremendous force, them endless rhymes, that i bury your shit with
The poetic predator, freestyles excetera, ahead of the competitor
So, think about it when you’re ready to flow
Cuz you’re up with some true shit boy
This how we do it
The Hieroglyphic imperium, steering them to death
No hopes left so don’t hold your breath

[Verse 3: Pep Love]

Ah, the reverb machine
We struck up on some point of some unnerving things
The past is gone and now i think we need some servicing
So keep in house superb between
Check it out
A-la-la-la-la
Shit is beautiful, and i maintain to stay dutiful
Onto the next step, is so, pep is so crazy to the naked eye
But the third preferred to check it
Ever so often, i often, but i try not to go
Off and on, cuz i gotta get off
When on a mic i, humble myself so my
Words don’t jumble and sound like I’m mumbling
Hieroglyphics hit the ground running
Put out an independent album and now we got to talk loud money
Coming and i tell the corporate world
That we coming and look at what the economy’s becoming
Hustlers do justice to the human spirit from Nathan, the saints
Substantial and back at the ranch we got kangas and the pantry goods
Since of the wood fence, windows got tens
They anticipate surveillance huh
Looking for hits now
What you gonna do when we unveil this huh
Put on your helmets, that won’t heal your elmets
Harmonize, open your eyes, find the fifth element
