(专辑: Insomnia (1st Infantry Mixtape Vol. 2) - 2003)
Make-Make-Make-em-Make-em clap to this To show our appreciation for your support Make-Make-Make-em-Make-em clap to this Thank you DJs Dilated! Clap your hands! [x6] [Evidence] Yo, first up, I
stay updated Stay in the
zone, and no question, stay "Dilated" Understand, I
exercise patience (right, right) Respect my path, 'cause the
road, these cats paved it (set it off) Now that we've got that straight, it's time to move on I
don't train for sprints, I
train for marathons A
long haul, we're built for this It's proven, every year, more people cop our shit The
point I'm getting at, we're building an army Couldn't thank 'em enough, for real, I
feel strongly Right now, we're parked in a
comfortable spot By 2004, we're out to own the
whole lot (Out for the
top!) To settle for less, the
short change So we keep our heads with us, as there's more to gain And with, war is pain, so we roll the
dice It's all for the
love, but some pay the
ultimate price (check it out y'all) [Chorus:] [Group of singers] Yo, they go off when they go on On and on, on and on ([Evidence:] Marathon) Pace yourself so you can face yourself Run hard, you really only race yourself Yo, they go off when they go on On and on, on and on ([Evidence:] Marathon) But we don't run from shit, we run to it Might run over your shit or run through it [Rakaa] I
crack my own tooth, man, rap's a
tool Just to spit, crowns will leave your head wrapped with jewels Respect that, even if you don't respect that Label politics are just a
minor setback As long as we're willing and the
heart is still in it In the
marathon, the
artists will win it Even though they want me to bite my tongue Where I'm coming from it's like "Fuck that, I'll still win it" The
long run separates the
weak and strong one Never underestimate how deep the
songs run [Rakaa and Group of singers] Pace yourself so you can face yourself Run hard, you really only race yourself, yo [Rakaa] Clap your hands, your hands you clap Expansion Team rap then expand the
map With endurance, intellect, cardiovascular Stamina, Rakaa's a
party flow master like this! [Chorus] [Rakaa] I'm like Axel when they kill Mike for the
bearer bonds ?? Driven to fight, living in the
marathon Some can't carry on, they're tired or feel ill But in the
end, real soldiers are still will Sometimes, it's just spectators and gladiators Same party, next year, haters congratulate us To Buddy Princess and Jalen, congratulations This year, there's less funerals than graduations [Evidence] Yo, pace myself, 'cause sagas continue Standing ovations, Dilated blows up every venue A
new era, placed first, style pursuing The
shoe fits? (Wear it), it's based on you and Your off beat DJ Anything he play Sounds like Babu pulled the
plug with no delay This homestretch I've saved my last breath [breathing noise] I
push full throttle, no rest till nothing's left It's the
marathon [Chorus] Clap your hands [x5] Check it Expansion Team forever and the, Alchemist
