Ha ha ha | |||
Yeah yo | |||
Ryu and Tak | |||
Uh uh uh | |||
Urban Network | |||
What what | |||
Hey yo | |||
Styles Of Beyond | |||
Yo it's the Rapology saga beyond | |||
No apologies, no alarms | |||
No suprise though | |||
My rhyme flow | |||
Disguised as a MiG that flies low | |||
Jams radars and rigs | |||
SOB recharged status in Cairo | |||
Launch a rhyme rocket and drop sonics | |||
Stereo sound barriers pop when I rock various phonics | |||
Hey you, huh, Mr. Lee Cadena | |||
Listen, listen to the Rapology banger | |||
Coming out the noble with the flamers | |||
Hey Macarena | |||
Urban Network's below major | |||
Takbir and Ryu two triple zero four crew (what) | |||
Styles Of Beyond on Winnetka Avenue | |||
The independent explosival pummel residue | |||
So while you on the ground we're bumping on level two | |||
Yo | |||
Urban Network serving | |||
Smack it till your flesh hurts | |||
They call me Tiger Chen | |||
Let's eliminate the guesswork | |||
Untouchable like Eliot Ness | |||
and Internet sex, the ninety next | |||
Version of rhyme merging with spy tech | |||
You just learnt to walk | |||
You ain't flying yet | |||
You gotta know things | |||
Before you grow wings | |||
And call yourself a pirate | |||
So we invented this rhyme | |||
Way ahead of its time | |||
Shredded its size | |||
We've worked it from eleven to five | |||
But first ever who tried I | |||
Severed the thigh and | |||
Cleverly crept through the back and into the sky | |||
You can ask Lee Cadena who's the intelligent guy | |||
Critical rapology no one else ever survived | |||
Hey yo, what up, Lee Cadena | |||
It's Ryu and Tak | |||
Just Urban Network | |||
Making it serving it hot | |||
From block to block | |||
Rapology kings rock | |||
A style that don't stop | |||
Two thousand hip hop | |||
Lee Cadena, what's up | |||
It's Ryu and Tak | |||
Just Urban Networking it | |||
And serving it hot | |||
From block to block | |||
Rapology kings rock | |||
A style that don't stop | |||
Two thousand hip hop | |||
Yeah yeah | |||
Urban Network | |||
Yeah hey yo | |||
Styles Of Beyond | |||
Yeah Ryu and Tak | |||
Uh uh | |||
My man Lee Cadena | |||
Uh uh | |||

Ha ha ha
Yeah yo

Uh uh uh
Urban Network
What what
Hey yo
Styles Of Beyond
Yo it's the Rapology saga beyond
No apologies, no alarms
No suprise though
My rhyme flow
Disguised as a MiG that flies low
Jams radars and rigs
SOB recharged status in Cairo
Launch a rhyme rocket and drop sonics
Stereo sound barriers pop when I rock various phonics
Hey you, huh, Mr. Lee Cadena
Listen, listen to the Rapology banger
Coming out the noble with the flamers
Hey Macarena
Urban Network's below major
Takbir and Ryu two triple zero four crew (what)
Styles Of Beyond on Winnetka Avenue
The independent explosival pummel residue
So while you on the ground we're bumping on level two
Yo

Smack it till your flesh hurts
They call me Tiger Chen
Let's eliminate the guesswork
Untouchable like Eliot Ness

Version of rhyme merging with spy tech
You just learnt to walk
You ain't flying yet
You gotta know things
Before you grow wings
And call yourself a pirate
So we invented this rhyme
Way ahead of its time
Shredded its size
We've worked it from eleven to five
But first ever who tried I
Severed the thigh and
Cleverly crept through the back and into the sky
You can ask Lee Cadena who's the intelligent guy
Critical rapology no one else ever survived
Hey yo, what up, Lee Cadena

From block to block
Rapology kings rock
A style that don't stop
Two thousand hip hop

Just Urban Networking it
And serving it hot
From block to block
Rapology kings rock
A style that don't stop
Two thousand hip hop
