[Verse 1: Method Man]
~#**************#~
Yo, this is how it sound when the hood go bang
~#**************#~
You can cop a couple of bricks of good cocaine
~#**************#~
I’m a block scholar, call me Dollars, I don’t change
~#**************#~
I’m a Rottweiler, diamond collar with gold fangs
~#**************#~
Yep, a top shotter, Don Dada, rhyme proper
~#**************#~
Might even take the ‘R’ out of brother—why bother?
~#**************#~
Mic on Halloween, I mean, I’m clearly a monster
~#**************#~
We gathered here today so that I could dearly depart ya
~#**************#~
Math, bars better than Willy Wonka’s
~#**************#~
It’s how to get away with a murder—you feel me, Shonda?
~#**************#~
Rhymes like karma, I’m hood, stash the contra
~#**************#~
You ever hear a rhymer this good, smack ya mamas
~#**************#~
But it’s still death over dishonor
~#**************#~
‘Cause you can get it next and get death over this drama
~#**************#~
Math verse Meth, this Civil War is a starter
~#**************#~
Men turn to martyrs, Wu-Tang bang regardless
~#**************#~

[Verse 2: Raekwon]
~#**************#~
We stay shattered and clutch the gold links
~#**************#~
Everything on is mint, I came through in a Reno, all tinted
~#**************#~
Im known to make a million in jet
~#**************#~
King Joffrey and its cadets
~#**************#~
Shooters from the boonies thats looney
~#**************#~
Hold the Tec with all respect, expose his neck
~#**************#~
Trees burn em out, niggas is learning now
~#**************#~
The Archbishop murder through March, Clarks is slippers
~#**************#~
I spark blippers, bloggers catch way shot zippers
~#**************#~
The movies all state of the art, we throw grenades and blades
~#**************#~
And darts and changed the grain, this sharp
~#**************#~
Remain remarkable, we aint playing this part
~#**************#~
We cant explain this art, he aint the same as us, he pus
~#**************#~
Glass of gin for my jewelers, too many rugers nigga
~#**************#~
[?] [?] hundred Benz in Bermuda
~#**************#~
Known to fuck a party up and bounce
~#**************#~
We hog-tie little rappers, give em black eyes like Little Rascals
~#**************#~

[Verse 3: U-God]
~#**************#~
What it sound like? Heres another sound right
~#**************#~
The sounds of a hundred rounds, blacked down at night
~#**************#~
And in hindsight, Im still on this plane
~#**************#~
The hood slang go bang, the big change to swank
~#**************#~
Take an A, met these lanes, Mr. Officer Skane
~#**************#~
Its just the dialect that I select when I slang
~#**************#~
Whos saying? Your false talk, you get erased like chalk
~#**************#~
Whos for? Or who shot hawk? And who popped off?
~#**************#~
Th men and mouse shit, public service announcements
~#**************#~
Careful we’re burnings a ounce of small town houses
~#**************#~
Youthful offenders meet the public defender
~#**************#~
Who offers you a fight attempt, plea deal with a mayday to surrender
~#**************#~
What a fucked-up summer
~#**************#~
Had a brand new come up
~#**************#~
This Fourth of July bullets fly and the doves cry
~#**************#~
To [?] face in the R.I.P. white tee
~#**************#~
From a ricochet of the red bricks to the headpiece
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Redman]
~#**************#~
Yeah, this is how it sounds when the hoods go BANG!
