AZ, RZA - Whatever Happened (The Birth) lyrics

Yeah, some Firm shit, you know what I mean?
For all the niggas, in New York all across
The motherfuckin' world
Ain't nothin' changed yet, shit's still real

Yo, major large niggas get they grind on cash
While the crab thinkin' niggas keep
They mind on ass
I guess most motherfuckers ain't
Designed to last
Whatever happened to the realness from
Back in the past

You know the routine fast cars, rings
Get a crew scene
We true fiends, old-school style
That's how we do things
Born and destined, hands on many investments
Strong, reflect this 'til I'm drawn
Back to the essence
Street wise, 36 waist, small feet size
The CI's quick to slide off
Once the heat rise
Detour, poverty zone, police war
Going through each dawn
Searchin' new ways for me to eat more
Fast learner, Quiet Storm
Play the back burner
Bureaucrats, I react like Nat Turner
Hold weight, used to rock kicks with no lace
Fuck a soul mate, low heart pace
Pulse at a slow rate runnin' rapid
While others play as if they captive
Brain's inactive
Bein' subjected to this crab shit
To each his own, fuck the foulness
Need a week alone
We can zone all day long on the speaker phone
600, nine-five North, stay blunted, stress
I came from it sex got drained from it
The new breed star gazin', raisin' two seeds
To be free, the franchise is
All a whole crew need, indeed

Whips and full clips and pussy lips
Rubber grips attached to hips
Past the journey to the crib
The purest sickness curer
Holy Quran Sura, leaves man to understand
I stand up a rough briva heart is bleedin'
Stress got my hair line receedin'
God look we feedin'
Leadin' my seeds back to Eden
And stay suspicious of promiscuous bitches
Who don't wash and do dish and
Too big for your britches
Lustin' riches, fuckin' the next man mistress
You wonder why your pussy itches
Fat ass sample without the glitches
Shatter your mental
Split your bean up like a lentel
Disfigure your face you recognize
Him by the dental
Hot lead from raw heat, left in store meat
Lay it out on Broadstreet, before he
Left all he heard was the echo from the shot
Cops autopsy revealed he was
Stopped by the Glock
Devils lettin' off SCUDS
Thugs trapped up in HUD houses
New York been infested by Bloods
Lusting for colors of red
More black lies done shed through
Yet the blood travelin' through
Veins remain blue
Boned out until we zone out, no doubt
Chicken heads beg for the nine-inch applehead
Their legs open like Fallopian
Lubricated by petroleum
Nine months later comes the ovary explosion
Bitch you stupid
A hundred dollars you couldn't recoup it
When I reign the truth on your brain
You mute it
Ruler Zig-Zag, Zig Allah, plus Allah Zig
Zag-Zig we addin' more knowledge to your wig

Word up, word up yeah, Wu Tang
Firm up in this piece know what I mean
Holdin' it down, stamp of approval, you know
Get ya brain washed, you know what I'm sayin'
Get your muscle tendered and straight
No doubt, no doubt
Word up, the black God exists
In the physical form, you know
The Firm baby, holdin' this, A to the Z
I know what time it is aight, Armageddon
