Yo  yo. Its a hundred and fifty emcees. Which one do you be? Count em  
 I met a _Redman_ in _Camp Lo_ named _Mic Geronimo_  
 He'd _Busta Rhyme_ anywhere  he was always on the go  
 He used to live in _Champtown_  but moved to _Slum Village_  
 In a city Motown that was run by _Mike Millich_  
 Lived with _Fat Joe_  in _Ras Kass_'s corridor  
 Who had a _Crucial Conflict_ with this man next door  
 On a _Rampage_  against this kung fu gang  
 Sensei _Master P_, of Shaolin's _Wu-Tang_  
 He'd meditate with _Cool J_'s, and phillies of _Canibus_  
 Practicin the grain style, and the praying mantis  
 Increased his _Eye-Cue_, studying the _five V's_  
 And had more styles, than _MJ has got G_'s, uhh  
 One time, he was confronted  
 And the neighboor told _Da Sensai_, he didn't want it  
 The sensei asked him to choose his weapon  
 The A-_KRS_, the _Nine_ or the _Mack 10_  
 He chose a shotgun, since he was from Bucktown  
 As he blast a _Buckshot_, the sensei, he Ducked Down  
 Hit his _Dogg's Nate_ _Snoop_ and the _Spice-One_ rack  
 The sensei didn't even have a chance to blast back  
 Eyes bloodshot and _Puffy_, and got up like _Scarface_  
 (Pacino: "Say hello to my little friend")  
 Lettin' off a _Dirty Dozen_, now it's a car chase  
 Gunfight now turns to a deadly car ride  
 The sensei didn't see _Da Brigade_, on _The Pharcyde_  
 Crashed his chevy, _Kid Capri_ head on, was thrown 20 feet  
 But he didn't bet on  
 Being scooped by _A Tribe Called Quest_ and cared for  
 Until his wounds healed, he then declared war  
 Called up _Jay and A, who both drove a Z_  
 Already wanted, for _Jayo Felonies_  
 And _Missy Elliot_, who also had a _Case_  
 The judge will _Punisher_, for sprayin' illegal _Mase_  
 A Misdemeanor, but the judge was _Kurupt_  
 She was caught with _Pete Rocks_, and never handcuffed  
 Called up her Uncle _Luke_, whose _Crew was 2 Live_  
 They had some _Peter Gunz_, like the ones on True Lies  
 And these two guys were snitches, all around town  
 Kid who was _Da Brat_, and her sister _Fox Brown_  
 With only a few G's, they met _Nas at Escobar_  
 _Alkaholiks_ all around, with Cristal and caviar  
 Long Island _Ice-T's_, with only one _Ice Cube_  
 They discussed the _Kurtis Blow_ and spot up like intertubes  
 They met some _Geto Boys_, who _Run DMC_  
 _Corporation_ and _Dr. Dre_, or was it _EPMD_, who said "Life is _Too  
 $hort_we gotta think fast?"  
 _Daz_ 'em with explosions, shots & tear gas  
 Drink _E-40's_ of _8-Ball_ with _Little Ceasars_  
 Down 180 proof rum, with Bacardi Breezers  
 _Large Professor_, who teaches class on _Artifacts_  
 Had plans to invade the _Timbaland_, with rocketpacks  
 They go in crewed up, over the _Cypress Hill_  
 _Outsidaz_ _Mobb Deep_, and everyone is just _Chill  
 A _Hush_ on the scene, all you heard was the Click_  
 _Organized Konfusion_ was _Ultramagnetic_  
 A _Lady of Rage_, that was cursed with _Voodu!_  
 Was stung by _Cocoa B's_, _Outkast_ by _Gurus_  
 A _Goodie Mob_ of _Lost Boyz_ _Xzibit_ _Mystikal_  
 Broken _Bone, Thugs 'N Harmony_ is very critical  
 Scalped lots of hair on _The Roots_ of _40 Thevz_  
 Then write "_Heltah Skeltah_," in blood from injuries  
 A _Common_ sight, like _Capone 'N Noreaga_  
 They bomb a fight, then sit alone with Garsha Vegas  
 When it was over, one seemed to never fall  
 He screamed out "Fade em all!"  
 It was this kid named _Jamal_  
 The sensai would _Rakim_, and his man _Eric B_  
 Give him an _Eminem_, and made him bow to one knee  
 This wasn't _Bizarre_, it was in his _Nature_  
 So this would become the 37th Chamber  
 It all started, over some _Big Daddy Kane_  
 The sensei sold with _Slick Rick's_ brother _Dana Dane_  
 On east, _Warren G's_ supposed to be uncut  
 Chopped with baking soda, crews went _Beatnuts_  
 And caused a _Ruckus_, against the _Gang Starr_  
 Who tried to control _DMX_ Blvd.  
 It got back to _Junior Mafia_, who then got ill  
 And caused a drug trade to come to stand stills  
 See, in this industry, you can't have anarchy  
 Cause everyone wants their name on the _Biz Markee_  
 Yo, some are long gone, will the gunshots cease?  
 _Eazy E_, _2Pac_, and _Biggie Smalls_, rest in peace
