Royce-59-Caterpillar
[00:07.35] You will not be able to stay home, brotha
[00:09.61] You will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out
[00:13.12] You will not be able to lose yourself on skag and skip out for beer during commercials
[00:17.61] Because the revolution will not be televised
[00:21.13] This right here for the number one
[00:23.65] Number ones here with your number one
[00:26.35] You ain't number one, just another one
[00:29.11] Now everybody sayin' that they number one
[00:31.43] Ring the alarm, the caterpillar keeps firing
[00:35.16] Oh, we in the war, where butterflies keep dyin', ah
[00:41.86] I'm a product of Parker Lewis and Kubiak
[00:44.61] If didn't do this, where in the fuck would you be at?
[00:47.14] See there's a difference between us, what I spit hit arenas
[00:49.85] You a drip from my penis, I eat lions and sip hyenas
[00:52.39] You number one when it come to slaughtering mics
[00:55.36] I'm tryna be number one in my son and daughter life
[00:58.12] Uhh, all you niggas my little rapper babies
[01:00.60] Y'all my children, y'all bit my shit and contracted rabies
[01:03.43] Don't you rate me next to these rappers, baby, that's degrading
[01:05.60] My style got so many different facets
[01:07.20] I switch into so many different passions
[01:08.85] I'm skippin' class to be fascinatin'
[01:10.65] My pen is like Big Ben, this shit's just a classic waiting
[01:13.86] Your favorite rapper come at me, I just decapitate him
[01:15.86] Out here congratulating these has-beens who had their highs
[01:18.66] These rappers only won their matches because they strategize
[01:21.15] I bring etiquette to these patterns, and here's my battle cry
[01:23.85] Ring the alarm, the caterpillar is firing
[01:27.62] Oh, we in the war, where butterflies keep dyin', ah
[01:34.12] This right here for the number ones
[01:37.65] Number ones here with your number one
[01:40.36] You ain't number one, just another one
[01:42.93] Now everybody sayin' that they number one
[01:45.36] Here take your number one, quit
[01:46.89] Number one soul, get your number one chip
[01:49.36] Number one fly with your number one kicks
[01:52.36] When it's all done then your number gon' switch
[01:55.14] Hold up, wait a minute
[01:55.90] Guess what I'ma never do
[01:57.11] Show so much respect to you
[01:58.35] That I feel like we're friends, so now we no longer competitors
[02:00.86] That could be the death of you
[02:02.10] Never let someone who's not as smart as you gas you up
[02:05.15] And tell you somethin' you never knew
[02:06.10] Always stay professional
[02:07.44] You always gon' make revenue
[02:08.86] Don't let people next to you that don't want the best for you
[02:11.63] It's completely normal to hold on to a regret or two
[02:13.86] I do what I want to do, they do what I let them do
[02:16.60] Everything niggas be sayin' is a fuckin' lie
[02:19.91] There is nothing I can say to you that is realer
[02:22.36] Remember when you raisin' the butterfly
[02:25.36] Don't you ever disrespect the fucking caterpillar
[02:27.38] This right here for the number ones
[02:30.36] Number ones here with your number one
[02:33.11] You ain't number one, just another one
[02:35.61] Now everybody sayin' that they number one
[02:37.87] Now you think that you number one, quit
[02:39.60] Number one soul, get your number one chip
[02:42.36] Number one fly with your number one kicks
[02:45.13] When it's all done then your number gon' switch
[02:48.35] You looking at her tell her
[02:49.38] The psychopathic killer, the caterpillar
[02:50.61] Don't tell me when I'm supposed to rap until
[02:54.63] Especially when your favorite rapper ain't even half as ill
[02:56.17] A savage still, the track's a banana peel, attack at a silver-back gorilla
[02:59.35] You're havin' a little trouble fathomin' this is actually happenin'
[03:02.36] Like Anderson Silva back when he snapped his shin in half
[03:05.36] And then had the shit hangin' by a flap of skin
[03:07.35] After he tried to plant the shit back on the mat again
[03:09.36] Pad to pen I'm batty like eyelids when they're blinkin' a lot
[03:12.36] You copy me, but you're not
[03:14.11] You can't be butterflies
[03:15.61] My offsprings are just moths
[03:17.11] I see that thing I'ma squash it and rip the wings of it off
[03:19.40] So ring the alarm, pull the extinguishers off of the wall, set the sprinklers off
[03:22.10] Like Jada Pinkett and Queen Latifah
[03:25.40] 'Till the shingles come off the roof we'll shout at the ceiling
[03:28.11] Slaughterhouse in the building, middle fingers aloft
[03:30.11] Say what I think when I rhyme, in ink-pen I talk
[03:33.14] And the language I speak is my mind
[03:34.22] Kingpin and Penguin combined
[03:35.62] Spit like it's King of the Dot
[03:36.67] A singular thought I think of will help you distinguish apart
[03:38.65] The frauds from the cream of the crop
[03:41.15] ([Royce Da 5'9:] Wait a minute)
[03:41.87] Hold up like a flashcard
[03:43.11] Damn dawg, is that copyin' or payin' homage?
[03:45.61] It's sad because dad taught you to rap as a damn toddler
[03:48.11] My dad is your grandfather
[03:49.64] I have to rehatch on ya
[03:50.90] Come back as black wasp
[03:52.15] Half yellow jacket, you can't swat a
[03:54.11] Sasquatch dancing on top of an ant trample it and stomp it
[03:57.10] Smash it and stand on it
[04:00.11] Dammit, I can't stop it
[04:02.42] The rap is a vag' and I'm goin' in like a tampon in this bitch
[04:03.63] It's a manslaughter
[04:04.89] Stampin' out grasshoppers, you can't be no Rap Gods
[04:06.63] In fact you're exact opposites
[04:08.43] You make a wack song, and can't hold a candle
[04:10.64] But even Daniel-son whacks off
[04:12.36] You jack-offs need to come to grips like a hand job
[04:16.37] The boom bap is coming back with an axe to mumble rap
[04:19.15] Lumberjack with a hacksaw
[04:20.86] Number one, but my pencils are number twos 'cause that's all I dos with 'em
[04:23.86] Poop is my suit and I'm
[04:25.67] On the john like a prostitute when I'm droppin' a deuce
[04:27.61] And when I'm producing them lyrical bowel movements
[04:29.86] These beats are like my saloons
[04:31.35] 'Cause these bars always got my stools in 'em
[04:34.11] And I don't need Metamucil to loosen 'em
[04:36.10] Bitch, shit is real like I pooped Jerusalem
[04:38.86] I'm 'bout to go spin another cocoon and I'm cuttin' you from your mother's womb then I'm flushin' you
