Best opening line of a song ever

[I Got Werk]

You heard it from the P, you oughta know it's the truth
I get you kidnapped, raped and thrown off a roof
You could nod your head to this like it's only a rap
Cause when these bullets hit yo' ass, I'm like it's only a gat

 

[CM_Burns]

We got hits for years,
I got a bytch for every day of the year

- dun from Infamous Mobb (not Big twins)

 

[TheDarceKnight]

I mean take damn near any Prodigy line before 2000.

Prodigy was the king of opening lines

"I got you stuck off the realness"
"I used be in love with this bytch named E&J."
"There's a war goin on outside, no man is safe from."
"I break bread ribs, hundred dollar bills."
"I put my lifetime in between the paper's lines" (my personal favorite)
"The saga begins, begin war"
"Let me start from the beginning at the top of the list"
"I open my eyes to the streets where I was raised as a man"
"Forever wild from the cradle to the grave"
"I kick that progress"
"to all my n---s uncivilized to civilized"
"Ay yo, its hell on earth down here the pavement's scorching"
"Respect the I-M-D"
"Nineteen seventy four, motherfukker I was born with pain"
"Memories play back like film"

I could go on. he's still got it too on Albert Einstein.

"IMDKV, Queen's Massacre"
"Morning of the day, evening of the killer kids"
"Numb off of thirty milligrams of something strong"

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Die nikka! We are born to die nikka
You've been dying for 400 years
nikkas know how to die
nikkas don't know nothing else but dying, nikkas dream about dying



Not a line but I don't give a fukk. I dare someone to find a harder opening than this.

 

[LozLink]

Not only one of my favourite opening lines, but one of my favourite openings to an album ever

I used to hit the kitchen lights, cockroaches everywhere,
Hit the kitchen lights, now its marble floors everywhere

 

[mr.africa]

REMEMBER BACK IN THE DAYYYYYYS
WHEN nikkaS HAD WAAAAAAAAVES
GAZELLE SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADES
AND CORNBRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIDS.....



To my seed, may I lead you into no greed or evil
In the categories of stories I breed my sequel
You know the money, blues, blunts, broken 22's
Monkey see, monkey do....




As I look up at the sky
My mind starts trippin, a tear drops my eye
My body temperature falls
I'm shakin and they breakin tryin to save the Dogg

 

[intilectual recipricol]

"Oh ye tormented souls..."

 

[that_boy_kilso]

So you wanna be hardcore....

 

[little lizard]

The theme song to (The Sopranos)
plays in the key of life on my, mental piano
Got a strange way of seein life like
I'm Stevie Wonder with, beads under the doo-rag
Intuition is there even when my vision's impaired, yeah

 

[Professor Polo]

First things first, rest in peace to Uncle Phil..

 

[dabestkeptsecret]

So many daps given
So far prodigy, pac, and nas are winning this competition
Jay z is also a sleeper too


I didn't see the nas stillmatic line listed


I still run with that, that blood of a slave, boilin in my veins It's just hot - until a nikka can't take it no more
Blood of a slave, heart of a King - turn my voice up

'Ay yo, the brother's "Stillmatic"
I crawled up out of that grave, wipin the dirt, cleanin my shirt
They thought I'd make another "Illmatic" But it's always forward I'm movin Never backwards stupid here's another classic

 

[King Poetic]

fukk the police coming straight from the underground, a nikka got it bad cause I'm brown

 

[Truth200]

 

[Kyree]

Nikka, we doing this shyt from Cleveland to LA
Nikka whatever you nikkas want, we bringin' it!
Thug Luv, nikka. What time is it?
Yo, I don't give a fukk where you lay at'
Nikka, it's time to slay these bytch-made nikkas!
