[Verse 1 - Black Thought]
Yeah! That almighty amazing, ill, highly contagious
Kamikaze SOUND splash like it shot from a gauge
Until your body sound clash
Head of the Class, Magna Cum Laude
Beats bring the beast out me, flagrant - foul rowdy
Reed PIPER deed tight, disposition keep on flippin
Keep em playin they position
Keep makin the people listen what I spin
Put em out on a limb
Got tears, got blood, got sweat, leakin out of the pen
Y'all fake niggas not settin a trend
We never listen to them
It's like tryin to take a piss in the wind
My home team doin visitors in, yo don't test em
They all standin close to the edge, so don't stress em
Now who the type built to last?
It's no question, the Master!
Villain in Black wit no STETSON
My sound hittin you hard from every direction
Your head and shoulder area, your midsection dawg!
[Chorus]
When the SNAKE on the ground with his nine on THE line, with the n***az who grind with King Kong hittin Thailand. Give it here, and don't say nuthin', just give it here, give it here and don't say nuthin'
When the team on the set with the guns gone clap, gettin down on everything, hmmm, cut the check. Give it here, give it here and don't say nuthin', Im sayin give it here and don't say nuthin'
[Verse 2 - Black Thought]
Yeah, Illadel! Home of the original gun clappers
Out on the wrong corner your shit'll get spun backwards
You got the FOREWARNING, the rules, enter at risk
Or your own nana'll keep a gat under the matress
Shorties running reckless from Philly to Texas
Suprising what niggas willing to do to get a NECKLACE
Some emotions felt better left unexpressed
At times niggas' crime record longer than a guest list
Yes, I done seen things you wouldn't believe
Seen people reach levels thought they'd never achieve
Silhouettes waiting in the wings ready to FEED--
THIRSTY SHYTS WHO need at least a buck to breathe
C'mon! Stick up kids, they be out to ATTACK
Most times they be sticking you without the gats
I'll still be on the grind when it all collapse
And if it's my WORD'S BOND I'm a take it right back nigga
[Chorus]
[Verse 3 - Black Thought]
Yeah, it ain't nothin like the rush I get in front of the band
On stage wit the planet in the palm of my hand
When a brother transform from anonymous man
To the force, crush whoever might of thought I was playin
I'ma FLANG some SINISTER SHIT, the cold TWISTA slang
Thicker than BIG BOI BABY MOM'S SISTA
Pain beyond measure, relaxed under pressure
You see the masterpiece, but to me it's unperfected
Give it here Geffen Records, I'm off the handle
Cut the check, and yo it better be as heavy as anvils
Next joint's comin, all bets is cancelled
Nigga black ink, GRAND WIZARD G financial
We finna have a whole industry at a stand still
See me put the system on lock like CAMP HILL
So get wit them endorsements, and call reinforcements
Cause my CLIQUE come IN FOR A sizeable portion
[Chorus]
When the SNAKE on the ground with his nine on THE line, with the n***az who grind with King Kong hittin Thailand. Give it here, and don't say nuthin', just give it here, give it here and don't say nuthin'
When the team on the set with the guns gone clap, gettin down on everything, hmmm, cut the check. Give it here, give it here and don't say nuthin', Im sayin give it here and don't say nuthin'

Last time I listened to this song was when it first came out and got heavy airplay, so I guess around 18 years ago. This morning I woke up with the beat in my mind. It just got pinned in my unconscious for so many years just waiting to eventually re-emerge, amazing.
Don't say nothing. Give it hear
Same…. I dunno why I thought of it and had to look it up. I didn’t even know it was by the roots, I was so young when it came out.
First heard this in prison 😅😅😅
same lol
Put this up against any modern rap song. Shitting on it all these years later. Saw them at the house of blues about 10 years ago and best night of my life.
FACTS!!! 😤
Legendary Roots Crew always represents. It been known. Word.
Listen..
one of the greatest underrated
YESSSS
Yeah yay
PyroManiak underappreciated
nah he number 1 in my book
The Roots were underrated but I love all of their songs especially this one
This is one of the songs I always come back to no matter the year. I gotta download it
I watched Star Wars Revenge of the Sith Special Edition till the end and Yoda was jamming to this...
You lying
Marcus Smith why you on here lying I see you lying OMG stop fucking lying
Ryan Coman
type it in! I have the movie!!! It's called Yoda Dance on Star Wars.
DJay FT-J4K3 Oh Shit! Yoda on the lean, usin' fucking Dark Side, smoke Dagobah Green, buy yo deathsticks rethink yo life ay

The other night someone asked me what’s the best beat I’ve ever heard. This is def a strong consideration
Terrasquad 113 beat will never age. I was just thinking that as I put the song blast.
Scott Storch beat
This is the best beat ever made 🎯💯
definitely a masterpiece definitely a hit but 2000's beats definitely show their age more than some of the better 90' beats
@@khstapantsog3783 Beats definitely peaked in the 2000s, they should be peaking now but people care more about thick bass lines than melodic beats
i wish this song was longer. i love the beat
Me too.
Yes 🔥🔥🔥🔥 rejuvenating to life right now. Yo I’m a 87 baby right an all I could remember was ‘Don’t say nothing’ as a kid, and here we go. This beat 🔥🔥🔥🔥 these individuals and artistry are life..
One of the best ever........... EVER!!!!
Too y’all saying they were underrated. They were under marketed. Big difference. Everybody who knows something about music and hip hop see the talent.
That's the truth right there
Every Philly musician to ever get a record deal, is undermarketed unless they clap cheeks like Meek did or be weird like Uzi. It's sickening because Philly is art but we don't get a chance.
@@KittiesAGogo 😂😂
This song is incredible. That catchy-ass Knight Rider sample slaps, and then the bars are 🔥.
I'm bout to whip my ride to this right now. Flashin everybody back. CUT THE CHECK ON EM!
Love the roots for this song!!!
Scott storch blazed this one
I love how it sounds like he's mumbling
Black Thought, Black Thought, Black Thought! The man owned this track!!!
All the time at work I be like “just cut the check, and don’t say nuthin”
True RAP. True hip hop!
Storm on the rides ....nothin languague stupid ironic iconic❤❤❤
Give it here Geffen records....hell yeah!!!!
Came in from the Yoda easter egg from "Revenge of the Sith", came out a new Roots fan. ❤️

btw, it's definitely "...sound splash like a shot from a gauge into your body..."
Rest. Malik B. Gone but not forgotten.🦁 🎶🎤
Word.!
This track has always been highly contageous!
Black thought is an untouchable in the rap game. Hence why Em put him on his new album. He spit fire on that track too.
beyond measure / relaxed under pressure / you see the masterpiece but to me it's un-perfected
Man that bar is so 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"What I spit gotta em' out on got blood. got sweat leakin outta the pen"..............
Black Though.....one of the illest to do it........ One!
Actual lyrics: “what I spin, put em out on a limb, got tears, got blood, got sweat, leaking out of the pen.”
No offence, but might as well do the genius of Black Thought justice if you’re going to quote him.
MMM CUT DA CHECK AND GIVE IT HERE! LOVE THIS SONG!
“Silhouettes waiting in the wings ready to thieve!”
Yeah, still good, Love the good old Times!
Classic! Always on my play list!
night rider remix ftw this edit is sooooo sick!
He snapped super hard on this......Black Thought incredible superhuman mcee

Blackthought is one of the best rappers ever
You see the masterpiece, but to me it's unperfected!

black thought def one of the best
"dont say nutin" nuf said
Picked up on the instrumental of this being played in the background of the F1 show Canadian Grand Prix 2019! Someone is picking some very cool tunes for the edits. Found Lapsey Hurt me in the same way last year. 👍
One of the most slept on MC in hip hop who has a huge following but I feel like he should be in everyone top 10 list of all time. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
Entourage and Star Wars - Episode III: Revenge of the Sith sent me here
Dude! I learned a dance to this song. Intense.
Yoda breakdance!
The tipping point! hot album!
