    Verse one: black thought

    Southeast to pennsylvania, transporation authority
    Is what i'm probably on, if i ain't whippin a land
    Throughout ya sec-tion, my mind's in traum'
    Nine times out of time i rhymes upon the l train
    Within my brain, foun-tains over rugged moun-tains
    Of my terrain, diggit i came too far to front
    So i'm meditatin on how to maintain
    Stepped off at city hall into the rain;
    And ran into my nigga named dane - i mean hakeem
    And we was buildin on how we could organize the team
    For this capital gain bein that we in the rap game
    It's time to have it all, he said he figured he same
    We realized this a planet of cream, to obtain
    When the predominant rap, conglomerate rap spark the flame
    Hark the name, the fifth from the ill-power hill at that
    He dropped me off within the streets of south phil'
    Where niggaz think that killing's living real
    Shorties is getting wetted, fulfilling their fantasies to set it
    We don't sweat it, by the fifth you get beheaded
    I pivot through my borough givin pounds to the dreaded
    At the lye spots i got credit; could run em down
    In alphabetic-al order it's sorta pathetic
    Yo, i'm livin life within a labryinth of nonsense
    This is a consequence of being philly residents
    Tryin to get it on, the rhythm gettin shitted on
    The exquisite i exhibit to shine, yo

    Verse two: malik b

    I walk through this field with 'iminals
    Ill die-hard soldiers, try to make it to-wards the generals
    Hard-headed rugged captains, walkin head on through action
    Turnkeys on the closed caption
    I bring the skills of wizardry
    Treat mc's with bigotry, so now you see the picture vividly
    Seduce your brain from the temple over instrumentals
    The fifth chant, you see the exhaust out
    The swift camp -- mannerism is to scan your vision
    You see the light, you can't eclipse the sun
    We call back the young, but still they'll strap a gun
    To shoot caps that spook cats and rappers hung
    Now you might tube across from the diners where you find em lost
    Niggaz hearts so cold, they sport frost
    The m-the-illi-tant, the bad lieutenant kill your camp
    You're now a victim of reality, my personality
    Afflicted, for three to five if convicted
    Illicit, because most cats will live corrupted
    It ain't no pity in this inner city niggaz fuckin
    Exquisite i exhibit the shine now check it out

    [black thought]

    Up ya lighter, 'fore we spark the fire
    To all my peoples on the planet stimulatin the mind
    All my peoples that be knowin the time; c'mon
    And push up ya lighter, up ya lighter
    Up ya lighter, 'fore we spark - check it out

    Verse three: bahamadia

    Inclined to rap about facts, i never fake jacks
    Shit is real like e packs, forty-fifty-sixes
    Trims and gimmicks, couldn't faze the true heartache
    When i first started, but then few remember this
    Anti-gangsta bitch, sporting new jew-als
    Plain jane styles internal, to the naked eye
    Derived from mindstates of cold crush tapes
    And beat breaks seduced by means to elevate
    Equates my views with the passing
    Those matching this intellect identify, for like minds
    Intertwine one thought in uni-son
    We exquisite i exhibit the shine, ahhh

    [black thought]
    Yeahh..
    To all my peoples on the planet stimulatin the mind
    All my peoples that be knowin the time; c'mon
    And push up ya lighter, up ya lighter
    Up ya lighter, 'fore we spark the fire
    To all my peoples on the planet stimulatin the mind
    All my peoples that be knowin the time; c'mon
    And push up ya lighter, up ya lighter
    Up ya lighter, 'fore we spark the fire
    To all my peoples on the planet stimulatin the mind
    All my peoples that be knowin the time; c'mon
    And push up ya lighter, up ya lighter
    Up ya lighter, 'fore we spark the fire
    To all my peoples on the planet stimulatin the mind
    All my peoples that be knowin the time; c'mon
    And push up ya lighter, up ya lighter
    Up ya lighter, 'fore we spark - check it out
