The Wrong Side of the Tracks
They use the simple back and forth, the same old rhythm
That a baby could pick up and join right with 'em
But the rhymes are pathetic
They think they copacetic
Using nursery terms, at least not poetic
On a educated base, intelligent-wise
As the record just turns, you learn, plus burn
By the flame of the lyric that cooks the human brain
Providing overheating knowledge by means causing pain

LEGENDARY verse
When I was doing QA at a factory, me a guy from GA and this other guy from NC, bonded over the love for Wu
One day we got to talking about Cap and I was like
Cap might not be one of the best members but he got an all time verse
Breh knew exactly what I meant
I just said
YES THE shyt IS RAW COMIN ATCHA DOOR
We rapped the whole rest of the verse loud as fukk
Young brehs were gathering around like
WTF is that?!

"Oh, so now ya'll lil nikkas ready to Enter the Wu-Tang?"

The Wrong Side of the Tracks
The streets, the cops, the system, harassment
The options, get shot, go to jail, or getcha ass kicked
The lawyers, the part they are of the puzzle
The release, the warning, "Try not to get in trouble"
The snitches, the odds, probation, parole
The new charge, the bail, the warrant, the hole
The cell, the bus, the ride up North
The greens, the boots, the yard, these hearts
The fightin', the stabbin', the pullin', the grabbin'
The riot squad with the captain, nobody knows what happened
The two years in a box, revenge, the plots
The twenty-three hours that's locked, the one hour that's not
The silence, the dark, the mind, so fragile
The wish that the streets would have took you when they had you
The days, the months, the years, despair
One night on my knees, here it comes, the prayer

It was fun

Then it turned dangerous

Then it died

Not really but in the mainstream

The end

Last verse I remembered was a Kendrick verse from a few years ago. Outside of that it’s been a whiiiiiiiiile.

I.....leap over lies in a single bound (who are you?)
The Black Prophet
One day I got struck by Knowledge of Self
It gave me super-scientifical powers
Now I....run through the ghetto
Battlin' my arch nemesis Mr. Ignorance
He's been tryin' to take me out since the days of my youth
He feared this day would come
I'm hot on his trail, but sometimes he slips away
Because he has an army, they always give me trouble
Mainly; Hatred, Jealousy and Envy, they attack me
They think they got me
But I use my super-science and I twist all three
I see sparks over that buildin' - they're shootin' at me
I dip, do a backflip
Then I hit 'em in the heart with sharp steel bookmarks
Ignorance hates when I drop it
But no matter what he do he can't stop the Prophet
