House of the Rising Drum Lyrics by Delinquent Habits

Merry Go Round

2000

[Verse 1: Kemo]
Looks complicated, huh, but when the sound comes
Significant percussion feel rush crush the round drum
And keep in tempo with the cries of the ancient
San Su Warrior, takin' out the plaintiff
This ill crush like skulls in Spain and running bulls
And they gon act like fools when the curtain pulls
This here for partyin' so let your bichi bong slide
Cruise irie toxins through your head like a G-ride
I hang with macs and Alvarado maniacs
Who make Fetti, I broke backs and Herb sacks
And this right here y'all will be known
As one of the most eloquent ever graced a mic phone
With hype tones my mind roam the ozone
When I'm on the stage, known to flow zone
You got a pencil, best put it in your pocket
Cause you'll need more than cheap blue ink to rock it
[Chorus]
Cause in the house of the rising drum, they all come
You can vibe with the drum, so strum or just hum
With the *urrrr*
You know, yeah you bet we hit you with the
You know, yeah, ha
Cause in the house of the rising drum, they all come
You can vibe with the drum, so strum or just hum
With the *urrrr*, ah
You know, ha, ha
[Verse 2: Ives]
Now I've seen how the world turns and how it functions
I'll be damned if I'm twiced burned before destruction
'Cause I could never be that alligator that Albino
Sacrificial wino, I got the shoes though with the ill flow
Then I stay two steps ahead, three leagues above
The petty individuals sulkin' in the masses
Bannin' Latin accents, then I drop bombs
Napalm square on the flesh and to make it more definitive
You won't get rid of this
Your narrow minded attitude will make me rude
Makin' 'em capitulate in a civil fashion
I'm old fashion when it comes to body thrashin'
[Verse 3: Kemo]
Herb done job cool vibe you all high
Enter through the haze, the zone of red eye
Get out your seat it's time to rock show
Frontward, backwards, ill fast or slow oh (Oh)
Time to hit this harder than you all knew
O.G.'s horns a Jericho blew, gimme some drums too
Rise your spirit with the Mosh Pit clearin'
Known to shake your rear end, y'all love what you hearin
[Chorus]
Cause in the house of the rising drum, they all come
You can vibe with the drum, so strum or just hum
With the *urrrr*
You know, yeah you bet we hit you with the
You know, yeah, ha
Cause in the house of the rising drum, they all come
You can vibe with the drum, so strum or just hum
With the *urrrr*
You know, yeah, you bet we hit you with the
You know yeah, ha
