Ice T

Ice T - Mind Over Matter lyrics

It's been a long while

Since I hit ya with freestyle

High tech selections

From the vaults of the Ice files

Kick back relax

And watch as I melt wax

Don't ever let a borther llike me

Ride a dope track

Cause once I hit it with the vocltone

It's mine, have motherfuckers

Rush'n to rewind

Cause I'll flow slow

And still twist your tongues up

Rock the house from night

Till the sun's up

Cause it relly ain't

How much you say

it's what you sy

I got no fuckin' time on the mic

To play

I write rhymes

With addition and algebra

Mental geometry

Don't even come at me

Talk'n that weak and

Popin' that bullshit

Get out my face

A fool could get his head split

A lot of doubters

Said it couldn't be done by me

them same suckers

Are now lookin' from under me

Wonder'n what i did

I didn't play myself kid

I respected my faans

And made the high bid

Sometimes I write my rhymes

At night and fall asleep

Wake up with new techniques

Grab the pen

And place it on some loose leaf

Nothin' soft, always the tough meat

The white paper and

Blue lines excite my mind

Not allow'n me to stop the rhyme

Until the whole motherfuckin'

Book's complete

Then I write on the

Back of the sheets

I maade promise

To my brothers in street crime

We'd get paid with the use

Of a sweet rhyme

We put our minds together

Made the tracks clever

Now we're checkin'

More bank than ever

<i>[CHORUS]</i>

Mind over matter

I can drop rhymes in twos,

And threes and fours

nd still have much shit

Left for encores

Cause once my mind locks

In on a dope idea

Mothercukin' ducks

Should stand clear

Cause I'm a hit the topic point blank

It's jail ya better keep your shank

Cause I got mine

And I'm out on a solo creep

(Uggga!) Your face hits the concrete

You wanna roll

With the niggas that don't play

I think you got false courge

Get out my damn way

Cause the car I'm in

Is rollin' full of men

No kids or boys, E got the Mac 10

Islam's got the Zulu Nation back up

DJ Aladdin's who

Hooked the fuckin' track up

Syndicate's make'n the move

With the ski masks

And I'm house'n the long cash

So now you realize

You underestimated the Ice

You thought that I was OK

But now you realize I'm nice

But that's alright

Cause I knew I'd mke it in the end

Those who like me now

Might not of liked me then

But I'm a keep impressin'

Stressin' my lesson

And keep motherfuckers guessin'

Armor plate my mind

With walls and shields

As I escape from the killing fields

Mind over matter

Wise up

Move the tempo of this hype groove

You know this shit is dope

So what you try'n to prove

Vu's max as Evil E

My niggaa dogs the wax

My brain's a handgrenade-catch

I'm a hit you with an over load

Of bottomless thought

Reversin' all the shit you're taught

Then throw words at you

Syl-la-ble-at-a-time

Your brain recites the rhyme

No matter what you do

The power's over you

when you sleep

You'll be say'n these rhymes too

Cause the brain has the power

To control all

Think positive

You'll be unable to fall

Brain cells swell

Thought process becomes a trance

Makes you feel posessed to dance

I'll say I want a million

My mind is so deep

I'll be bustin' a check for it next week
