I Declare War
Lootpack Lyrics

Yo
Hello, listen up

Check it out y'all
Pay attention everyone

94 and the loot pack is in the house
We are the Lootpack and we are here in 1994

I be the Madlib the bad kid
I am Madlib, the rebellious one

Got my man J the Wildchild he's in the house
J the Wildchild is here with me

Oh No and his partner Medaphor
Oh No and Medaphor are also here

Got my mans dj romes cause he's good to go
Dj Romes is here because he's ready

Got my mans Can't Kick over there with the dread nappy hair
Can't Kick is over there with his distinctive dreadlocks

It goes like this y'all
This is how it goes

Ah Rock, rock, rock on
Rock on, keep rocking

Rock, Rock, rock, rock, rock on
Keep rocking, keep rocking, keep rocking

Check it out check it out yo
Pay attention, hey

I be the vocabulary adversary
I am the opponent of weak vocabulary

Commentary out my area
My commentary is outside of my usual surroundings

My undersclaim bang shim shareef
My underestimated skills are powerful and sharp

The beat heard of Madlib
People know about the beats I produce

We murder whack kids
We defeat and surpass untalented artists

A lot ah boulder collar got ta rock the Bambaataa
I have the confidence and skills to rock the crowd like Bambaataa

Gotta lotta skills as smarter smaller than emmett otter
I have many skills, even though they may not be widely recognized

If the sun and the moon come together
In a rare event, if two opposing forces unite

Hot whether or not
Regardless of whether it's hot or not

I'm clever I got
I am clever, I possess

The ill skits when I endeavor
I have extraordinary skills when I attempt something

Wreck shop and run the ill pop's
I dominate and control the music scene

Busted abstractions
I reveal and challenge abstract ideas

But the fractions the multiplication rock the nation
The fractions and the multiplication of my skills influence the whole nation

Like Haitian
Like a Haitian, with power and strength

I'm rushin through your station
I am quickly passing through your music station

Ace in the whole
I have a secret advantage

I got the soul
I have the spirit and essence

Roll through your car soul
My music flows through your car's sound system

On the go
Moving forward, always active

Dollars that fold
Money that can be easily spent or saved

Now roll through your console
Now my music plays through your console

Hand bags and glad rags sag
Bags and clothes hang loosely and worn-out

Like my pants drag
Like my pants hang low

Ya body tightens up and then echo's like I'm some cut throat
Your body becomes tense and your voice echoes, as if I am intimidating

The slurred word professor
I am a professor of using slurred words

Plus the ill loot majesta
In addition to the incredible loot I possess

Like aunt ester address her
Like Aunt Ester addresses her issues

Cause I'm the fresha bright mic tester
Because I am the freshest and the best at testing the microphone

So therefore, my illiterate techniques sneak upon emcees that be weak
My unorthodox techniques surprise and overpower weak emcees

My off type lingo return for the killing
My unconventional language comes back to destroy my opponents

Crazy like David from Wacco
Crazy like David from Wacco, a reference to unpredictability

Yo I'm here to rape foes
I am here to dominate and defeat my enemies

Ego's and high standards
Arrogance and high expectations

I be droppin bombs from here to Vietnam
I am releasing powerful music consistently

I'm on the track to show the wax be wrong
I am determined to prove the inferiority of mediocre music

I'm dimming
I am becoming less noticeable or prominent

The lights and for the women
Turning down the lights, creating a romantic atmosphere for women

I be in them
I am with them, involved with them

In fact many are standing because my flows are sending
In fact, many people are impressed by my music and are paying attention

My tapes you caught the vapors
My music has a powerful effect on you

Evaporate sucka's
Weak individuals disappear quickly

My skills be the illest capers
My skills are the most impressive escapades

On the mic I been raped ya
I have dominated and defeated you on the microphone

Long range strange versus come through the windpipe
Unusual verses from a distant place enter your ears

Day and night
All the time

Twenty four hour styles be now in sight
Styles that are available and visible at all times

But invite whack emcees through membrane
But I invite untalented emcees through my filter

Focus on talents
Pay attention to skills and abilities

Balance my waves
Maintain a harmonious flow of my music

Continue as flav
Continue as an appealing and distinctive artist

On my display
In my presentation

Lyrical scripture
Sacred and meaningful lyrics

Venture rhymes Un sit cha
Experiment with rhymes and unsettle you

Here's a picture
Here's a representation

Off type flow that hit cha, dit cha
Unconventional flow that affects you, surprises you

Disappear wit cha
Disappear with you, vanish

Equalize my variety
Balance and harmonize my diverse range of abilities

Destruction of my vocab makes a menace to society
My destructive vocabulary poses a threat to society

So in my inner sanctum
Within my private space

I make sure hard core ships 'll kid um
I ensure that hardcore music will impress and surprise you

Is in for WAR
We are ready for a war, a competition

Yo
Hello

I'm not Spanish speaking
I do not speak Spanish

Ya vanish when this man is freakin
You disappear when I am performing intensely

Ya friend was leakin
Your friend was leaking information

He barely understood this weekend
He hardly comprehended what happened over the weekend

The comprehension or his interpretation
His understanding or how he interpreted things

His perspiration
His sweating

Made me want to hurt the nation
Made me feel aggressive towards everyone

Of whack emcees in
Of untalented emcees in the music industry

With the flows that I'm exposing
With the lyrics and musical styles that I am revealing

Rather composing
Instead of creating

Blows up like my names explosion
Becomes popular and well-known like my stage name

Lets speak extortion
Let's talk about demanding money

When I possess this mic extension
When I hold this microphone

Oh I forgot to mention
Oh, I forgot to say

I rock this style with forcing
I perform this style with power and intensity

For the time being something simple from the temple
For now, I will perform something straightforward and basic from my mind

oop
Oops

Excuse me palace
Sorry, my mistake

Never had a callus
Never had rough or hardened skin

Now lets
Now, let's

Get deep
Delve into a deeper level or topic

My malice
My hatred or desire to harm

Is for ya
Is directed towards you

Rock the mic with intention of Conan the Destroyer
Perform on the microphone with the intention of being powerful and destructive, like Conan the Destroyer

Your gonna have to suffer consequences while I'm on some missions
You will face negative outcomes while I am working towards my goals

Can you stand the pain when I'm giving ya New Edition's
Can you endure the pain when I am delivering harsh criticisms

I rock the ill mad techniques that means
I perform incredible and skilled techniques, that's what it means

When I'm mad I freak
When I am angry, I go crazy

Feeling glad this week because I had to seek
Feeling happy this week because I had to search

Out non on the spot
Find something unexpected

Dropping styles from the top
Performing unique styles from the beginning

Rapper
I am a rapper

I shut you off quicker than the clapper
I silence you faster than the sound of clapping

Yo
Hello

Medaphor
I am Medaphor

When in the millionth I've deal and lyrical villain
When I am at my most creative and lyrical, I become a villain

be illin skills and techniques freaks the track
I possess outstanding skills and techniques that impress and surprise the audience

I drops the boulders
I release powerful and impactful lyrics

All my peeps are obsolete the feet folds
All my friends are no longer relevant or important

Its oil that's upon your fro's
It's the influence or impact that is present in your gatherings

I watch shows to bank rolls
I observe performances and make money from it

Lyrical war stories behold
Witness the powerful and intense stories in my lyrics

Behold my wifes execution
Witness my wife's defeat or downfall

To make sure my money will grow
To ensure that I continue to make money and succeed

Mass confusion give delusion
Creating a state of confusion to deceive others

Through your crew and fullmore
Affecting your group of friends and others

Infinities styles to my format
Infinite styles that fit my unique approach

Death defying expedit vocab will end the whack drack
Challenging and bold vocabulary that will eliminate weak lyrics

Trapped up in this hip hop mirror
Stuck in this world of hip hop and self-reflection

Addicted to vicked whack brothas who down wit g funk
Obsessed with mediocre and talentless individuals who support g funk

Or something whack emcees invented
Or something that untalented emcees have created

I'm in it to win it
I am determined to succeed

Ships of kid um
Groups of talented young individuals

Medaphor representing true hip hop
I am Medaphor, representing authentic hip hop

huh
Indeed

Mad emcees drop all the killin
Crazy emcees deliver intense performances

I place my locals on the lock
I make my friends and supporters a priority

Cause I'm down for the cause
Because I am committed to a purpose or mission

I balls emcees zone causing your falls no straws I'm fatter and grabbing your skull
I intimidate and defeat emcees, making them collapse while I control the situation

I pull upon the microphone yo
I take control of the microphone, hey

Can't handle my lyrical cat nip will stomp
You can't handle the captivating effect of my lyrics, I will dominate

Mad brotha's out from ballistical warfare's
Crazy guys who emerge from intense and aggressive musical battles

Cause I declare war
Because I proclaim a state of conflict and competition
