Wu-Tang Clan - Hold the Heater lyrics

Windshield, rappers are like gnats
They're gettin' splattered 'pon
The windshield
Fallin' down like London Bridge
My blade split your onion head
Axe that like Paul Bunyan
Meth prefers the gun instead
Bong bong, put a hole inside your head

We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw
We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw

How come the streets don't want me to live?
Plus my niggas keep tellin' me fibs
But the devil done poisoned my wiz
I'm doin' this for my family and kids
I'm tryna be wealthy
Take my time right and stay healthy
Said it before but I don't
Think nobody felt me
Yo tried to understand this hand
That this life dealt me
I'm on the verge of a whole new makeover
My fake friends
They can take it like a takeover
I'm ready to eat, I'm ready to grip it
Got enemies everywhere
I got chicks that's wicked
Sick shit, niggas doin' wicked ass wig shit
Bid shit
Tellin' jakes that I had the biscuit
Niggas be wantin' my leftovers
I'm like a general that died and
Lost some of his best soldiers
I burn holsters and I kill that dirt religion
Murk that pigeon and I shoot the television

Got that trey pound on you, run down on you
Hard-boiled nigga, Clan top soil
My fam straight royal, I'ma die loyal
When them shooters come for you
Better throw your flag at 'em
I'm pure gun oil
Let 'em see that hand cannon
Foundation strong, never ride a bandwagon
Andrew Jacksons, hand-to hand transaction
Cops jumped out
Caught him with his pants saggin'
Criminal individuals up in here
Wild like the theme park
Ride called The Buccaneer
Weed in the Tupperware
Throw you off the upper tiers
Suweeee, I got all my niggas up in here

We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw
We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw

Imagine the sound of your face
Scrapin' up against the gate
Of a barbed wire fence
This is barbed iron fist
Heartthrob, iron dick
Hoes slob the knob quick
This is odd, so throw it in your iPod quick

Lifeless activity, constant movement
Buyin' elasticity, such improvement
Sword held to where it collapses inward
Spillin' rhymes if it's Shaolin vineyards
RZA had a mixture
Then he added sound to the picture
Co-author rewrote the scripture
Math worked from birth, doubled the net worth
Amplified in the time machine of early Earth
A two-way radio, simple yet complex
Receivers, transmitters, interest to contacts
The emergence of the earliest atoms
Transform to a level extremely hard to fathom
Same soup, different bowl, Wu ceramics
Same group on them large-scale dynamics
A wave triggered the burst
Glass was shattered
Galactic matter served on a graphic platter

We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw
We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw

Overachiever, power hungry overeater
I95, whip fly like an overseer
I'm overconfident but some might
Say I'm overeager or overzealous
Especially when it's over cheeba
I got a soldier's features
I rock the coldest sneakers
My sneakers' so cold
Can't wear 'em 'less you hold the heater
Can't push me over either, that go for dojas
I ain't got no love for posers neither
Keep my composure
I'm focused, tryna roll the reefer
Let's turn it up
Forget the cope, I'm tryna blow the speaker
That's all he wrote
One verse could turn your soul to ether
It's time you gave me my respects
Just like the old Aretha mr meeeth

We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw
We keep it rugged we keep it rough
We keep it real we keep it raw
