With that album, he became an official member of the Wu-Tang Killa Beez, and from there on out, he frequently appeared on Wu records. In 1996, he played a large role on Ghostface Killah's Ironman.
During 1997, his Wu affiliation continued, as he rapped on the Clan's second album, Wu-Tang Forever.
Cappadonna's solo debut, The Pillage, finally appeared in March 1998. Like any Wu project, the record featured RZA as the executive producer and cameos from a number of other Wu members, including Method Man, U-God, Ghostface Killah, and Raekwon. As the sixth Wu solo project, the album was an instant success upon its release, debuting at number three on the charts.
A sophomore effort, The Yin and the Yang, followed in early 2001. His third and latest album, The Struggle, was released on Code:Red in 2003.
The MC remained active in the following years releasing mix-CDs, doing tours and joining Ghostface Killah’s Theodore Unit. But his official comeback came at the end of 2007 on the Wu-Tang Clan’s fifth studio album 8 Diagrams. Cappa blessed the opening cut with an extraordinary verse and showed up on two other songs.
Cappadonna inked a deal with new indie label Chambermusik Records/Koch in 2008. Old and new fans have been asking for new Cappadonna ever since and on January 27, 2009, their wait will be over with the release of Slang Prostitution.
Revenge
Cappadonna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
[Chorus]
Oh shit you better watch out for this
Revenge so sweet that you might want to flip
Ride on your enemies, bust they shit
Throw away the pistols throw away the clips
Remember those kids that hold cries they runnin' fast
Crack spillin' out they sides
It's the Hill brothers that kill
And raps on a blue trap water bugs nothin' but thugs
Cops circlin', two cuts on shorty mugged
Streets turn by the fliest of bug
It's switch the e-shit fucker
I take rhymes like a piss
Eat the beats like tuna fish
Stay focused, your camp is dead meat and drop worms
Wu-Tang is up on it too big to back down
Defeat never heard of I came with the crowd merger
The super friends seek that revenge
Bout to fuck out, you kiss girls on the mouth
Over here all of my niggas is bout bout
[Chorus]
Call me straight up oak y'all niggas just plain panel
Guns from my Ceridoor ask mic ammo
Cross fire, bullets racashe horizontal
Brooklyn bridge pharazano niggas know the motto
Follow the path, knowledge the craft
Swallow a whole bottle of math
Since biology class
Grand achery, bow and arrow split your grand largely
Afro in ya heads, robin hoods drop goods in these wild lands
A desert eagle in a child's hands
Your style's planned, my styles blend earth, wind, fire, water
You never know my son might fuck Mariah's daughter
Ill visions of victory without a battle
Breathes through tracks like cold winds towards Seattle
Sound travels through fiber optics under gravel
Combinating six sixty and they try to handle
Niggas try to handle
[Chorus]
Yo we always had a eight on us
Cold hands slingin' niggas gotta pay on us
Co-froze our whole shit so you can skate on us
Niggas don't freeze long, start to rain on us
I'm the type tah hold the mac with one hand
Squeez that shit till the gun jam
Flow sickly rhyme swettin' I'm too ill
Get blown quickly for two mills
Ice pick ain't too real sing your nice six swing to kill
Who runnin' with the kid that brang me the pill?
Who runnin' with the kid I'm like stainless steel
Frail nigga on some high and might, break your grill
Showtime there's a joke time I poll on the box
Poke lots of little holes in you like four little dots
Become my doja and balloon swallow them rocks
Shit out my profit hole by tomorrow you drop
[Chorus]
There's a place out there where the enemies lurk
In the woods try to burn down mamma's church
No love, they came to spread hate
The angels floried inside the pearl gates
The world got dark, a earthquake
trembled the underneath of the feet of pedestrians
Rain, drops fire and snowflakes
Destroy homes that contain the mad evil
All of God's children ran towards the ?
For all of those who did wrong to the ?
Their souls were cast out into the deep
Bodies of the unholy covered the street
And all of God's creatures ate them like meat
Oh father have mercy on the weak
The ones that can't see and the ones that can't speak
The ones in the projects smokin' that leaf
Who lived through slavery, families got beat
Bit by the dogs, shot by the police
Screaming for justice, screaming for peace
Brothers behind bars fighting with the beast
Third world countries plus the Mid East
We all gon die if the battles don't cease
[Chorus: x4]

Line by Line Meaning
If it's possible I'll step in your obstacles
I won't let your obstacles stand in my way
Oh shit you better watch out for this
Be careful of what's about to happen
Revenge so sweet that you might want to flip
Taking revenge can be crippling
Ride on your enemies, bust they shit
Attack your enemies and destroy them
Throw away the pistols throw away the clips
Let go of violence and aggression
Big grits, big ox snatch ice at Woodstock
People with power and wealth can take what they want
Remember those kids that hold cries they runnin' fast
Children who are scared and running away
Crack spillin' out they sides
Drugs are ruining lives
It's the Hill brothers that kill
The Hill brothers are known for violence and death
And raps on a blue trap water bugs nothin' but thugs
The rap scene is full of criminals
Cops circlin', two cuts on shorty mugged
The police are always around when something bad happens
Streets turn by the fliest of bug
The coolest people control the streets
It's switch the e-shit fucker
Switch to a new way of living
I take rhymes like a piss
I can easily come up with new lyrics
Eat the beats like tuna fish
I can easily create music
Stay focused, your camp is dead meat and drop worms
Your team is weak and vulnerable
Wu-Tang is up on it too big to back down
The Wu-Tang Clan is powerful and confident
Defeat never heard of I came with the crowd merger
I never lose and I have a lot of support
The super friends seek that revenge
Seeking revenge is unproductive
Bout to fuck out, you kiss girls on the mouth
You're weak and effeminate
Over here all of my niggas is bout bout
My team is ready for anything
Call me straight up oak y'all niggas just plain panel
I'm strong and unbreakable, but you're weak
Guns from my Ceridoor ask mic ammo
I always have weapons ready
Cross fire, bullets racashe horizontal
Bullets fly in every direction
Brooklyn bridge pharazano niggas know the motto
The people in Brooklyn know what's up
Follow the path, knowledge the craft
Learn what you need to succeed
Swallow a whole bottle of math
Learn everything you can
Since biology class
Since I was young, I've been learning
Grand achery, bow and arrow split your grand largely
I can shoot an arrow and it will be deadly
Afro in ya heads, robin hoods drop goods in these wild lands
I have a strong presence and am a force for good
A desert eagle in a child's hands
Dangerous weapons in the wrong hands
Your style's planned, my styles blend earth, wind, fire, water
Your style is predictable, while mine is more versatile
You never know my son might fuck Mariah's daughter
I have connections and my son might date a famous person's child
Ill visions of victory without a battle
I see myself succeeding without having to fight
Breathes through tracks like cold winds towards Seattle
My music is powerful and reaches far
Sound travels through fiber optics under gravel
Information can travel quickly and secretly
Combinating six sixty and they try to handle
I am unstoppable and they can't handle me
Niggas try to handle
People try to stop me
Yo we always had a eight on us
We always have weapons on us
Cold hands slingin' niggas gotta pay on us
We will harm anyone who crosses us
Co-froze our whole shit so you can skate on us
We are solid and not easily defeated
Niggas don't freeze long, start to rain on us
People don't mess with us for long, they are afraid
I'm the type tah hold the mac with one hand
I am skilled with weapons
Squeez that shit till the gun jam
I will use my weapon until I can't anymore
Flow sickly rhyme swettin' I'm too ill
My sick rhymes are too good
Get blown quickly for two mills
I am worth a lot of money and people will kill for me
Ice pick ain't too real sing your nice six swing to kill
An ice pick is just as deadly as a gun
Who runnin' with the kid that brang me the pill?
Who can help me get what I need?
Who runnin' with the kid I'm like stainless steel
I am strong and indestructible
Frail nigga on some high and might, break your grill
Weak people who think they are powerful will be destroyed
Showtime there's a joke time I poll on the box
It's time to be serious and take action
Poke lots of little holes in you like four little dots
I will harm you in many small ways
Become my doja and balloon swallow them rocks
Join my team and become powerful
Shit out my profit hole by tomorrow you drop
I make a lot of money and will make my enemies pay
There's a place out there where the enemies lurk
Enemies are everywhere
In the woods try to burn down mamma's church
Enemies will attack innocent people
No love, they came to spread hate
Enemies are driven by hate
The angels floried inside the pearl gates
Good people are rewarded in the afterlife
The world got dark, a earthquake
Disasters can happen at any time
trembled the underneath of the feet of pedestrians
People are affected by natural disasters
Rain, drops fire and snowflakes
Disasters can come in many forms
Destroy homes that contain the mad evil
Enemies will harm innocent people
All of God's children ran towards the ?
People seek help and guidance in tough times
For all of those who did wrong to the ?
People who do evil will be punished eventually
Their souls were cast out into the deep
Evil people will go to hell
Bodies of the unholy covered the street
Dead bodies will pile up during disasters
And all of God's creatures ate them like meat
Dead bodies will be consumed by animals
Oh father have mercy on the weak
God should have mercy on those who are vulnerable
The ones that can't see and the ones that can't speak
People who are disabled or unable to defend themselves
The ones in the projects smokin' that leaf
Poor people who are trying to cope with their problems
Who lived through slavery, families got beat
People who have been through traumatic events
Bit by the dogs, shot by the police
Police brutality and violence against innocent people
Screaming for justice, screaming for peace
People want change and an end to violence
Brothers behind bars fighting with the beast
People in prison are fighting to survive
Third world countries plus the Mid East
People in poor, war-torn regions of the world
We all gon die if the battles don't cease
If we don't stop fighting, we will all suffer the consequences
