That's When Ya Lost

(album: 93 'Til Infinity - 1993)

Haha!
Yo, man, crews be lost, man
No sense of direction
(Fools don't even know)
Please don't sleep
(So much loss, so much losers)
So much losers (wack!)
Yo, that's when you lost
(That's when you lost)

Yo, I find it fun to smash emcees into fine bits
I'm going to get my just deserts for all the kids I must've hurt
I trust that courtesy when dealing with folks is too much for the asking
Cool: I got the skill crafted tools
Massive fools at my work bench and
I'm wrenching mics from they grasp 'n'
That's how it has been
The drill's this: I kill swift
I feels I better slay or, hey
My tape measures greater
So now I'm asking dips if they saw me and they was available
Would they want me to nail 'em all?
Be through, screw, drive her crazy; nut and bolt, lively
Put on your high beams

I proliferate a quicker fate to niggas, vigorous
Figure I kick stunts, I punch twice that nigga that's dissing at me
Attach 'em to bats, latching, and matching my cataclysm
I give'em a schism, I stroke to croak her, I broke her
Choking up on my syntax, as I bend backs by I'm-impacts
Then I give a concussion in your nuts when I'm busting
Heads, dead with my lead graff, I cloth thee
I swing off-beat, off the cerebellum, swelling membranes
Ten brains couldn't parallel this
I'm carouseling kids while they wallow and swallow hollow tips
You follow and slipping -I'm ripping mics nice twice
Like dicing kids in fractions, yo, figure, I tax men

Stepping to Casual (That's when ya lost)
What about Domino? (That's when ya lost)
But if you step to Snupe (That's when ya lost)
Stepping to A-Plus (That's when ya lost)
If you play the Tajai (That's when ya lost)
Man, stepping to Opio (That's when ya lost)
Stepping to Phesto (That's when ya lost)
Fuck with Touré (That's when ya lost)

Yo, I'm willing to bet, you're willing to sweat
But illing'll get you bruised, I kill and I step to crews
And abuse two's and three's, who's the G's that hoes know? (Me)
Me and Hiero, I know, I'm fly, bro
So why flow if you're not invigorating?
I know where you live, there at your crib, I got niggas waiting
I figure raping is crime, see
I take my time B, and now your G is my G
Now I'm gonna show you how the West Coast smacks kids
Yo, I'm rhyming swell, so to hell with a wack diss
Generalizing, dissing before you've ever seen this
So you can get the middle (What middle?)
The penis

Never the match the miraculous tactics
I smack tricks, the wax is at your wack bitch
I crack bricks over dicks
Who can't come, I leave'm broke and dumb
Deaf, and plus I'm causing cardiac arrest, you need some rest
Check, as I'm chiseling riddles in your memory
Remember me? I hacked your body to pieces disassembling your flows
You bros started trembling from shock and trauma
I'm gonna, end lives when I bomb-a
Babbling dyslexic, I make 'em exit
This lifetime, I wake up words, I excite rhymes
I'm enthusing when I'm bruising
Hoes take off their shoes when I abuse men
You're losing

If you slept on Del (That's when ya lost)
Stepping to Pep love (That's when ya lost)
Fucking around with J-Biz (That's when ya lost)
Step to Mike G (That's when ya lost)
Smoke on that crack rock (That's when ya lost)
The Souls of Mischief (That's when ya lost)
When you don't know where you're going (That's when ya lost)
When you don't win! (That's when ya lost)
Fucking around with Hieroglyphics (That's when ya lost)
If you fuck with The Shamen (That's when ya lost)
That's how you lose, proper (That's when ya lost)
