just like your alias, bow down, i always thought ice cubes first line in bow down, always struck hard. it wasnt like too word technical or antyhing, but just the intensity at how he said it.

and who could forget, "first off fuck your bitch and the click you claim"

the opening lines in each verse from"Some L.A Niggaz" lol

Broken glass everywhere

Two years ago, a friend of mine
Asked me to say some MC rhymes
So I said this rhyme I'm about to say
The rhyme was Def a-then it went this way- RUN
I cant believe nobody mentioned this one from SUCKAZ MC;s


Criminal minded, you've been blinded
Lookin for a style like mine you can't find it
They are the audience, I am the lyricist
Sometimes the suckas on the side gotta hear this- KRS-One- Criminal Minded


   People still takin' rappin' for a joke
   A passing hope or a phase with a rope- KRS-One...Im Still #1

"I got a love jones for your body & your skin tone, 5 minutes alone we're already on the bone" - Method Man

"A Nigga Neva Been As Broke As Me...I Like That" - Notorious B.I.G.

This one isnt from the beginning of the song but its from the beginning of a verse:

"Y'all want to know how I flow just seek and you find
I'm like a brain and a voicebox, I speak my mind
About to redefine rap mami, either I'm
the illest nigga doing it or these niggaz is losin it"

Ayo, my pen and paper cause a chain reaction
To get your brain relaxin, cause they be actin maniac in action
A brainiac in fact son, you mainly lack attraction
You looking zany whack with just a fraction of my tracks spun -Eminem Infinite

Goddamn the multis.

I'll be writing till I'm dead or maybe till I'm alive
All the emptiness I've bled has only helped me survive
Something melted inside when the tones hit my pulse
And stifled the idle eagerness to grow into my clothes
No one that I know is any longer good at actin'
Like they comprehend the motive uncoated to feed the corroded passion  -Eyedea Music Music

As a young and dumb man, gun in the waist
Sold crack to those who couldn't take the pain
And had to numb it with baste
Couldn't drink the henny straight, I needed somethin to chase
Nowadays I throw shots back,leavin nothin to waste
Life is like a treadmill, niggas runnin in place -Jay-Z It's Like That

Yo my wife's tired of fucking me
Life tries ducking me
Luckily I find 'em just at the right time
Mack in my right arm Tequila bottle in
My left arm like Cristian
Watching my life go keeping myself in
Wolves in the night yo hells men
Two revolvers I can let twelve spin -Nas Drunk By Myself

Follow procedures the crowd couldn't wait to see this
Nobody been this long awaited since Jesus
Who wouldn't believe this I heard the word on the street is
I'm still one of the deepest on the mic since Adidas
They said I changed the times from the rhymes that I thought of
So I made some more to put the New World in Order -Rakim It's Been A Long Time

Look into my eyes if you wanna know me
Before you hypnotized, homey what do you see
A figure that's just a little bigger than dealers
A hustler countin figures ain't pulled no triggers  >>> ice cube - until we rich


As we delve through the mud and rain
Straight shots of Tangue ease the pain
As we put to rest one of my niggas that got cut up and lost half his brain
Shit ain't the same niggas is dangerous
Buckin like it's the thang to bust
When I looked at my nigga fucked up
I couldn't help thinking this could've been aimed for us
>>> more than jus the openin line i know but i like that bit.


Armed and dangerous
aint too many that can bang with us
straight up weed, no angel dust, you can label us notorious >>>B.I.G


baby I'll probably be punished for hard livin blind to the facts Thugs is convicts in gods prison hand on the strap Praying to father please forgive me police be rushing when they see me I flaunted America's most wanted live on TV >> pacs verse opener

the openin to thug luv is class. the whole dam song is class

Shit
I've been a thug my whole motherfucking life Struggling
Doing what the fuck I've got to do to survive Bottom line
Thugline You see me on T.V. but you don't really know me >>> krayzie bone


My life is a jungle, I struggle hustle Monday through Sunday
They tell me the world is mine but shit I don't want it, who want it?
How could it be mine and I'm still hungry, still hungry
Lost and lonely - so I holler at the voices of the wind as a friend
>>> krayzie bone


Hell nah, you can't handle a man of my superior strength
I've been rockin for years, now it's time to go to length
>>> sen dawg cypress hill

Alot of a...sharks out there...try'na take a bite of somethin'
What's hot
Lot of chameleons out there...try'na change up
Anytime somethin' new comes along...everybody wants a bite
Don't happen overnight >> intro to rock/rap superstar


I remember the days when i was a young kid growin up
Lookin in the mirror dreamin about blowin up
To rock crowds make money
Chill wit the honies
Sign autographs and whatever the people want from me
Shits funny
>> cypress hill


dam i cud go on forever bout this but im not. ill jus hav sum 1 bitch at me :p
