MF Doom - Tick, Tick lyrics
feat. MF Grimm
(Verse One)
Walk the path of Jesus, witness if Hell frizzes
The mind teases reality, crack the pieces
Nothin' eases, bein' chastise with blood baptize
Guys revise, acknowledge past lives
Statements will be made, acknowledge me (knowledge me)
My mind is Heaven's gate so enter me (enter me)
My mind is the gate ta Hell so try ta flee (try ta flee)
Both gates look da same, which will it be? (which will it be?)
Demons screams from thought process
Enter seamen, Child born stress
Body want ta sleep but da mind can't rest
Measure, pleasure through fanatical progress
When it come ta currency, love is nonexistent
Foes magnified, Friends become so distance
Some hope ya die, back-stabbed in an instant
Foes I despise, discase as Allies
ta sabotage camouflage
Loyalty is lies
Ta see God, look inta my eyes
Ta see the Devil inya, look inta my eyes
as I rise from Hell's equator
(Hook)
'Cause I'mma slow it up, speed it up, slow it up, speed it up
Mettle Finger's feed beats Grimm Reaper eat 'em up
Speed 'em up, slow 'em up, speed 'em up, slow 'em up
Brainsick, Tick, Tick, Tick, MF blow it up
Slow it up, speed it up, slow it up, speed it up
Mettle Finger's feed beats Grimm Reaper eat it up
Speed 'em up, slow 'em up, speed 'em up, slow 'em up
Brainsick, Tick, Tick, Tick, MF blow it up
(Verse Two)
Take air, compress it, bless it
Mix loops like Ku Klux
MF don't give two fucks
Nigga, quarterback blitz, poped, quickly fumble
Leave game with concussion, seein' stars and mumbles
This happens, ta any Emcee that want's ta rumble
Dynasty's destroyed like Carrington's and Colby's
Noise, reduced, MF thinks in Dolby
Chop that ass in half like Obi Wan Kenobi
Greatest of all time, God straight up told me
Greatest of all time, the Devil even told me
Icicles on surfaces of sun/Son, we livin' coldly
Prophets be phony
And we attact, we switch like the Wu-Tang symbol
Still kill Jack even though Quick and Nimble plain and simple
Pick Niggaz off while they ballin' and die old like stallin', yes
Death I hear ya callin', I accept collect
Human sacrifice, must pay respect
We catch reck Nigga, we catch reck
And... we gonna... gonna...
(Hook)
Slow it up, speed it up, slow it up, speed it up
Mettle Finger's feed beats Grimm Reaper eat it up
Speed 'em up, slow 'em up, speed 'em up, slow 'em up
Brainsick, Tick, Tick, Tick, MF blow it up
BOOM!
MF Grimm, MF Doom!
