[Intro] (One of the reasons why people fear the word witch so much) (Is that it brings up ideas about women’s power) (Who is the baddest witch in town?) [Verse 1] A witch is a woman of the earth, down as dirt Inherited powers from birth But back in the day, the witch hunts of Salem Whipped up hysterical views against women Mob mentalities and manifestations Religion influenced imaginations Of congregations making observations Behind closed doors having conversations Disrespect for divine creations Defamation for generations So I come forth with this evocation Give praise to my inspiration The sacred feminine and woman inside Divine with the words and verses I write Born to rhyme when the lightening struck So if you don’t like my record, I don’t give a fuck! [Chorus] Who is the baddest witch in town? Raised in LA, colder than cool Definitely deadly down with old school [Verse 2] Going way back on a payback deep cut 1987 when the shit was rough An old crone with my bitches brew Respect to the chicks who built the old school Cold chillin’ with my crew rockin’ classic tracks Puttin’ spells on suckas like needles on wax Spittin’ words unheard, ain’t tryna be pretty I’m an underground queen representin' my city A heavy metal vet, you can check my history Brutal lyricist, so vicious with the delivery Sharp as a tongue when souls collide Deep as the ocean and dark as the night In the shadows of the industry I reside On a pale horse of death I ride Three horsemen by my side And my mic sounds mean not motherfuckin’ nice! [Chorus](x2) Who is the baddest witch in town? Raised in LA, colder than cool Definitely deadly down with old school [Verse 3] When I cast my circle, I will not hurt ya I’ll draw some blood and I’ll convert ya Have ya worship at my alter Cuz I’m harder than the Rock of Gibraltar Monolithic, specific a Force Majeure When Mother Nature strikes, it’s pure Like Haute Couture or Black Sabbath I form my lyrics just like a labyrinth Mazes and phrases only I knew Phases of the moon to guide you A Goddess, in a congress of Witches A Feminist, independent with this Gift I spit like Bellatrix Le Strange So come correct or don’t speak my name The first chick to embrace the word witch A Maverick, the original bad bitch [Chorus] Who is the baddest witch in town? Raised in LA, colder than cool Definitely deadly down with old school [Outro] (We have been taught to fear the witch) (But we are still drawn to her power) (We have been taught to fear the witch) (But we are still drawn to her power) (Who is the baddest witch in town?) (By performing rituals like this one) (Many women feel they are finding the strength to fight for what they believe) (I think a witch is something that comes out of the ground) (And gives everybody magical powers)
