Born to an African American/Indian father and an Italian/Jewish mother, Bizzy Bone started in hip-hop as a founding member of the group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony. Formed in 1993, this Cleveland-based crew first caught the ear of N.W.A. member Eazy-E.
Their trademark double and triple-time sung/rapped harmonies brought something new to the table at a time when most acts were busy trying to imitate what was featured on Dr. Dre's The Chronic. The unique sound prompted multi-platinum record sales, won them a Grammy, and brought the spotlight to the long-neglected Midwestern hip-hop community.
As a solo performer, Bizzy Bone is well known for his high-speed rhyme style and unique singing abilities. Continually writing and recording around the clock, he released his first solo album in 1998, the personal and introspective Heaven'z Movie. After receiving critical acclaim, Bizzy went on to write and release The Gift in 2001, Alpha and Omega in 2004, and The Beginning and the End, also in 2004, For The Fans vol. 1 and vol. 2 in 2005, The Story, Thugs Revenge, The Midwest Cowboy, and From Your Righteousness in 2006. His latest album Ruthless was released on March 4th 2008.
Bizzy's work has been awarded by numerous respected groups, including an ASCAP Award, the Michael Jackson Soul Train Award, a Blockbuster Award, an American Music Award, and the NAACP - Back To School/Stay in School Youth Rally Award. He has become a member of Hip Hop's elite, collaborating with modern hip-hop legends such as P Diddy, Snoop Dogg, as well as the late Eazy-E, 2Pac, and The Notorious B.I.G..

Bizzy Bone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And we gon' keep it stone cold right to the bone bone
Won't have to baptize me already did that
Won't have to chastise me where is the kid at
Different obstacles warrants from being victimized (victimized)
I summarize my solutions, think restitution and realize (realize)
I live my life on the stage, presence of pain
Jesus had a plan before anyone ever knew me
I'm regarded as a sell out, I'm a false friend, but the truth be
I was the one who was sold out ? and I think you know
I was born to sing these heavenly songs of soul
A fifth of my spoils, like a fifth of my crown royal
Loyalty bring royalty and prison over in the coil
Toil the soil, righteous, tightened, and never humble
Till the word comes and the sun still shine, hearted purple
Man anytime the the dawg be smoking airs precious
My depression don't matter His best friend the ?
Long as it's Jesus I understand commotion
?
this baby the ice is nice hit ya like kimbo slice
Cause I'm a keep my stones cleansed out to the Stonehenge
And we gon' keep it stone cold right to the bone bone
Won't have to baptize me already did that
Won't have to chastise me where is the kid at
Footprints you making the hood price you gotta any good since
Now gimme the incense sense and what if I could hence ? goodness
Now gimme the arrow spittin' spittin' swords dead pharaohs
Everybody abort
It's only the Lord narrow rippin the courts of the terror
It's cool you in my ghetto
My niggas runnin from po po oh no ? dead No No!
Hit em with true ammo
Will I get the payment they don't know what a nigga was saying
And now they illuminated. B B the dirt rock with a ? glock
Now look at the back of the dolla How dare you call I'm a psyclopse
? with the slice, murder me twice
The price of the crossbows, crossroads and the ?
This baby the ice is nice hit ya like kimbo slice
Whether we all in the nothin I got something for the moment
You want it the Bone come see my Stonehenge
Cause I'm a keep my stones cleansed out to the Stonehenge
And we gon' keep it stone cold right to the bone bone
Won't have to baptize me already did that
Won't have to chastize me where is the kid at
In the first verse of Bizzy Bone's "Stonehenge," he is referencing the mystical monument in Salisbury, England that is known to have spiritual energy.
