The Last One
Hieroglyphics Lyrics

Pump up the track some for your partner
Increase the volume and energy of the music for the enjoyment of your friend or collaborator.

Lets see how many rappers can go the length
Challenge other rappers to match or exceed our abilities and endurance.

Back in your system with extra strength
Returning with increased power and influence.

We eat emcees, outdo and surpass em
We defeat and exceed other MCs with our superior skills and talent.

But what's gonna make ya different than the last one?
What sets you apart from the previous rappers we have faced or heard? What makes you unique or noteworthy?

Boy you touchable
You are vulnerable and susceptible to attack or criticism.

No need to get apologetic
No reason to apologize or express regret for our actions or lyrics.

Get your bottom dollar, bet it
Be confident and willing to risk your money on our success.

Its your problem, I'm a let it
I won't take responsibility or feel guilty for any negative consequences of our competition or conflict.

Alone, the High Priest on the microphone
I am a powerful and respected MC, and I stand alone on the microphone without needing assistance or backup.

Taking historical lyrical oracles to the dome
I absorb and process the profound and insightful messages of past rap legends and incorporate them into my own style and delivery.

My rap is blessed, miraculous
My rapping is divinely inspired and has a powerful, transformative effect on listeners.

In fact the impact is just, spectacular
The impact of my rapping is impressive, significant, and worthy of attention and praise.

Intact with the knack to bust butts
I am intact and confident in my ability to impress and defeat other MCs.

Need I discuss?
Is there any need to elaborate or explain further? Do you understand my skill and talent already?

My rhymes make your brain freeze like slush
My lyrics have a powerful and unexpected effect on your mind, halting your thoughts and leaving you stunned.

Or slurpees, with unpredictable bumps like herpes
My raps are like frozen drinks with bumps of unexpected flavors, like a virus that catches you off guard.

Lets see if you can serve these superb emcees
Let's see if you can match or exceed the skill and talent of our group of excellent MCs.

All you thirty-third degrees
All you masons or members of secret organizations with high levels of initiation and access.

I've figured out history's mysteries
I have uncovered and understood the secrets and underlying patterns of history and society.

My kinetic energetic poetic motion
My rapping is a dynamic, energetic, and creative expression of my thoughts and emotions.

Subsides your synthetic notion
My organic and authentic style and content undermines or disproves your artificial or fake persona or message.

Of being the best, fully pressurized
Your claim or belief that you are the best rapper is misleading and unproven, especially under pressure or competition.

Back up off the microphones, I suggest, you guys
Step away from the microphones and stop trying to compete with us, I advise you to do so.

I'm the epitome of shit we be trying to do
I am the perfect example or embodiment of the goals and objectives we strive to achieve or create through our rapping.

When we go and write a rhyme or two
When we engage in the process of composing and performing rap lyrics.

You need some competition?
Do you require or desire some opposition or rivalry to motivate you or enhance your skills?

Boy, you better find my crew
You should search for and confront my group of MCs, who are particularly skilled and talented.

We make clean cuts like a diamond do
We deliver precise and polished lyrics and performances, like a diamond cutting through a hard surface.

Inclined in the mind
Mentally and creatively inclined or focused.

And the beat hit with perfect timing too
The instrumental accompaniment complements and enhances our rap performance with precise and appropriate timing.

When I come to your community
When I visit your town or city to perform or compete in rap battles.

I'm flexing diplomatic immunity
I am using my status and influence to protect myself and assert my power, like a diplomat in a foreign country.

Protection connection
I have both physical protection and social connections to support my rapping and career.

Legalize MP5's just to tear up your section
I am so powerful and influential that I could lobby for or legalize a type of weapon that would destroy or dominate your area or group.

And this is what you must stay aware of
You must understand and remember this important fact or warning.

While I conduct this concerto

Ring through abyss

And bliss'll overwhelm you

We go into a realm you never been

And seldom conceived
Which is rarely or infrequently explored or developed by other MCs or artists.

Perfection achieved
We have attained a level of excellence and accomplishment within our art that is nearly flawless or complete.

[Chorus x2]
Repeating the earlier refrain, emphasizing our challenge and superiority over other rappers.
