Natural Elements - “The Promo”
[Emcee(s): L-Swift, Mr. Voodoo, and A-Butta]
[Producer(s): Charlemagne]
[Additional Vocals: Charlemagne]

[Intro: Sample, L-Swift, and Charlemagne]
[Sample]
“Strictly for live men, not for freshmen” - Sample from The Notorious B.I.G. - “Ten Crack Commandments”
[L-Swift and Charlemagne]
L-Swift: Yeah, yeah! Uh.  Uh. Huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah
Charlemagne: Yo, see this right here? This is (“Strictly for live men, not for freshmen”). It’s Natural Elements, baby (“Strictly for live men, not for freshmen”), and we’re still here, running the 2 Ton. Yo, L, take ‘em back, baby

[Verse 1: L-Swift]
Natural Elements, NE for short
A writer bit my rhyme and we almost fought, but
Since it was a brother, I thought it would be wrong, so
I let him go (Let him go), let him run along (Run along). I brought
My gun along, smoke ‘til my lungs is gone. Between
2 and 2 Technic’ 12s, I summon song for my
DJ cast, play this joint for the people
The record’ll never skip, a coin’s on the needle
I point to the feeble and spit for the better. Tape
This joint, rewind it, and listen forever, let it
Echo through the globe. We’re hot like cinnamon leathers
You only get warm in Timberland sweaters
“2 Tons / Live It Up,” two guns, switch ‘em up
Few rhymes get me touched. Voo, run up in the cut (Uh huh)
Mr. Voo (Yeah, yeah) his name (Right)
He’s into gunplay (Uh huh), not into games, yo (Right)
So, Agu, when the light turns green (Yeah)
Get on the mic and show ‘em what I mean

[Verse 2: Mr. Voodoo]
Back in ’91, Mr. Voodoo had dreads
Now in ’99, Voodoo is a bald-head, packing
Threes, leave the place all red, won’t
Stop ‘til every emcee in the place fall dead, won’t
Sound the shot, zones when real flows said, cold ground
And rock-stone’ll be a pillow in your bed. You a
Spear-chucker (Africa). Now all I hear’s bucking (Back at ya). When I’m near
All you see’s emcees in fear, ducking. I ain’t
Here bluffing, yelling no fake stuff. Leave a fellow
Laced up his block, yellow-taped up. Don’t make me swell your
Face up, leave you dead from the waist up
NE here to tear the place up, so
A-Butta, when the light turns red (Uh huh)
Don’t stop, proceed ahead

[Bridge 1: A-Butta and Sample
[A-Butta]
Ayyo
Before I proceed to give you what you need, I need
A little bit of… (*Ice*) and a little bit of (*Inhale*)
Yo, Eclipse, pass that fifth, man
[Sample]
“Strictly for live men, not for freshmen” - Sample from The Notorious B.I.G. - “Ten Crack Commandments”

[Verse 3: A-Butta]
I still dress fly
From NY to Puerto Rico. Anthony Cruz
A-Butta is my alter ego. Call your peoples
Let ‘em know about the Elements show. I’ll still stick those
With legs thicker than Jennifer Lo. Gallons of Hennessey flow
Through my veins, and my brain ain’t functioning right
No need to explain, we’re dumping tonight. It’s just
A promo, I’m done with the mic, eight bars
(Hey, y’all, Butta’s nice) That’s right

[Bridge 2: L-Swift]
Huh, huh
Natural Elements rock, rock on
All the people around the world rock, rock on

[Outro: L-Swift]
Yo, this for the DJs right now that showed us mad love all the years over. Word up, yo, but I’ma see you at the bar, yeah, when you come up in the club, yeah. Word, and at the sound of the bell, the promo’ll be over
