100 Degrees
9th Prince Lyrics

Aiyo I'm wise like a blind man playin' piano
I am clever despite any limitations; just like a blind man playing a piano

Jellyin' across the Verazanno bustin' at Sopranos
Traveling quickly while firing weapons like in the show The Sopranos

White boys with attitudes like Rocky Marciano
White guys who are tough and have a chip on their shoulder, like the boxer Rocky Marciano

Got a fire arm like Janet Reno
Having a significant weapon like Janet Reno, the Attorney General of the United States from 1993 to 2001

We serve John Wayne in El Dorado
We take on challenges like in the movie El Dorado with actor John Wayne

Go to war like Al Pacino
Fighting fiercely like in a movie with Al Pacino

Or Robert De Niro Casino
Taking risks like in the movie Casino, starring Robert De Niro

The ghetto is pitch dark
The ghetto can be a depressing, isolated place to live

For the street's of messenger, the story like Joan of Arc
The messenger of the streets delivering a story like Joan of Arc did for France

Gladiators and D&D, before that was the Paris Crew Squad
A group that existed before gangs called Gladiators, Dungeons and Dragons players, and the Paris Crew Squad

I just to stand up on the benches
I used to stand on benches for visibility and attention

State of mind, third eye dimension lynchin'
Being in the right mental state, aware of things others can't see, hanging onto my beliefs

Killarm' comrades like henchmen
My friends in the Killarmy are like loyal helpers

Street doctor leave you paralyzed in St. Vincent
The dangerous street scene can leave you in a bad situation, like being paralyzed in a hospital in St. Vincent

End the session with the weapon
Finishing with a gunfight or violent act

Madman reach for the sky and snatch the Moon out the Heaven
Being ambitious and shooting for the stars, even if it seems impossible

Attack you with the Mac-11
Fighting with a specific type of gun, a Mac-11

Shots let off that'll rip thru ya flesh
Firing bullets that can cause severe damage to the body

Pull bullets the shape of sevens, keep steppin'
Using bullets that leave wounds in the shape of the number seven and continuing to move forward

Lethal rejection, high scene rock mine, BONG!
Being rejected is harmful, like hitting a high note and having it sound bad

Heavyweight blows to ya midsection, Madman is comin'
I will come and hit you hard, like a heavyweight boxer

You best to head the opposite direction
You should move away and stay away from me

Aiyo Madman drag 'em thru the dark streets of reality
Moving people through the harsh and unforgiving reality of life

Matrix combat, projects go to war from Shaolin to Iraq
Fighting like in the movie The Matrix, with projects (low-income housing areas) going to war from different places

When fake niggas bust their heat, real soldiers bust back (bust back)
When fake people try to act tough, real soldiers will fight back equivalently

Aiyo I spit razors at haters
I spew hurtful words at people I don't like

I'm a walkin' skyscraper like Wolf Blazer
I am big and tall like a skyscraper, just like Wolf Blazer

We blase lasers at invaders, that's infantry behavior
We attack the enemy with precision, like soldiers in the infantry

1-2-0 precinct slang faders
Talkers who stop speaking or fade into obscurity, in the 120th police precinct area

Weak niggas get robbed in pissy elevators
Cowardly people get robbed in run-down elevators

Rappers bite like alligators
Rappers copy or mimic each other, like how alligators bite down and don't let go

We bust CD's inside Navigators
We play music loudly inside luxury SUV's like the Lincoln Navigator

I ain't pretty, life is risky
I'm not attractive, and life is full of danger

Like my act against Species
Deeds I did, like fighting in Species (movie with aliens) was very hazardous

Migrate, United States, the cities, Madman prophecies
Moving to cities in the United States, where I have a lot to say and can foresee events

I had to duck four shots comin' out of 260 lobby
I had to dodge four bullets when leaving the lobby of a building at 260 Address

Islord picked me up in a stolen Mazurati
My friend Islord got me in a stolen Mazurati car

With two hotties with two sawed off shotti's
There were two attractive women with two sawed-off shotguns

Beretta know karate
The Beretta gun is well-trained or expertly used

Fuck around in half lead half metal
Playing with half bullets and half metal objects, like a dangerous game

On to beat a body, soon to be a millionaire like Bill Cosby
Continuing on a path that could beat people up to becoming rich like Bill Cosby

Dom P. accept the collect calls from John Gotti
Drinking Dom Perignon champagne while accepting phone calls from the notorious John Gotti

We ain't gangstas we shankstas that'll shank ya
We aren't typical gangsters, we are violent people who will stab you

Bitch ass niggas get hung with coat hangers
Weak and cowardly men get punished in a painful and humiliating way
