(here we go...)




"Yo" > Mobb Deep



"And my name is Rakim..." > The R



(repeat 5X)




Yo the saga begins my eyes is the photography lens



Properly push pens and show quality gems



The horrors be grim but yo maybe tomorrow we win



If we follow the trends and keep count of the dollars we spend



I want a mahogany Benz I want lottery ends



I want property, friends, plus my hobby is skins



If I decide we in sin, then my prophesy ends



But the God'll begin, watchin my odyssey spin



in the place where war be, based on a true story



Territory was made for me to pursue glory



Blast alone masses in zones have to be sewn



Every capacity blown, I'm internationally known, yo




*Chorus A*



So all hail the honorable, microphone phenomenal



Persona is unbombable?, trust me son



I continue like a saga do, bringin you the drama to



allow you that the chronicle has just begun




*Chorus B*



"The saga begins" --> Mobb Deep



"The soul controller, Rakim" --> Rakim



"Set it off... yo, the saga begins" --> Mobb Deep



"Still say a rhyme after the next one" --> Rakim



(repeat 2X except 8th line is "You know that I'm the soloist" --> Rakim)




Yo, my never-ending epic, got the world spinning hectic



I quickly spread it, till the whole city's infected



Suspense that I supply intensify



Then commence as my daily events go by



You get involved in this, paragraphologist



Narratin novelist, market this, sound marvelous



I'm the star in this, which means the author's authentic



Most definite, every episode's a epidemic



So when you research, check it, here go the evidence



They represent with lyrical negligence for presidents



My science existed, without the fiction



Every inscription is a special edition




*Chorus A*, *Chorus B*




Yo, the legacy lives, let em see what the pedigree is



Mega-thesis, blessin these kids with extra features



The depth's deep as, the deepest sea is



Telepathy increases melody gets speakers, telekinesis



Ideas appear as clear as, pictures in movie theaters



Lyrics you hear it, devestating the way you ear it



So stay tuned for sequels, part two's and more



So soon you and your peoples can bumrush the store



The names have changed the game remain the same



How one came to reign on his claim to fame



No stoppin this I'm droppin this with hip-hop in this



And when the topic is topicless, then I'm writing the apocalypse




*Chorus A*, *Chorus B*




*variations of Chorus B to fade*
