Fire Ina Hole
Method Man & Redman Lyrics

With all due respect to the game, I'm the P-H-enom
Acknowledging the game's existence, but stating that he is a phenomenon

Not ready for prime time, be-yond, extinction
Beyond his prime time, but not extinct

Change your way of thinkin, or be-gone
Adapt or go away

Fast the fuck out, somethin stinkin
Leave immediately, as there's something unpleasant

Could it be the skunk, or could it be that body in the trunk
Unclear if it's just a skunk or if there's a dead body in the trunk of the car

Of my Lincoln, Continental style pop the pussy like a pimple
Pop a woman's genitalia like a pimple in the style of a Lincoln Continental

I'm fed up, I put it in your ear and fuck ya head up
Fed up with something and will make sure it affects the listener

Turnin up the temperature, hold them kids that entered the
Raising the stakes, warning children not to participate

36th, master mix shit
Referring to a music mixtape he's created

Biohazardous, pretentious
Pretentious and dangerous

Do it for the chemically imbalanced
Appealing to those who are not mentally stable

State your business, pay me at the door
Declare what you want and pay him directly

I am Man, hear me roar on twelve inches
Proud to be a man with confidence in his abilities

Shell shocked soldier in the trenches
Feeling shocked and overwhelmed like a soldier in the war

Fire in the hole game commences
Game on, danger ahead

Third string rappers play the benches
Lesser known rappers are not given the opportunity to perform

Reload, there'll be no repentance for souls
Get ready for the next round, there's no turning back

Just life sentence, with no chance for parole
The consequences are severe

And that's real
The situation is not fictional

Gundowned at sundown
Being shot at during sunset

Run now from the bucks sound, touchdown
Run away from the sound of gunfire as if it were a football touchdown

Your crew wanna punt now? Punk BLAOW
His crew is so tough that other crews will want to retreat and give up

Swimmin trunks torn up from the huntdown
Clothing damaged from running and hiding

Brakes lock em up now, a rich bitch knock em up now
Cars screech to a stop, but a wealthy woman gets pregnant easily

A plucked out eyebrow gal
A woman who has had her eyebrows removed

Naw dawg, a broad got to be a huzzy
A woman must be promiscuous

A hoodrat that ride like the "Bride of Chucky"
A promiscuous woman who rides like a demonic doll

Walk through my hood, your jewels they scream "Tug me"
It's dangerous to walk through his neighborhood with valuable items

Mind revolve' to reload like a SCSI
His mind is always on reloading like a SCSI hard drive

Doc, Da Bigfoot out for da SQUOOSH
Doc and Bigfoot are out for revenge

Shell shocked like I'm six months in the bush
Feels shocked and traumatized like a soldier who's fought in the woods for six months

Hikin in the snow
Walking in the snow

With forty motherfuckers expirin' the globe
With forty men who are ready to take on the world

Footprints of Timbs and Wallabee soles
Shoe prints from popular brands

We case the place like Barnaby Jones, homes
Scouting the area carefully before attacking

Lay it down like plats in ya hair
Putting down the law in the way you would braid hair

Ride off withcha money, then clap in the air!
Ride off with the money and celebrate with gunfire

This is for dem niggas on Da Bricks, holdin down they block
A shout-out to his crew holding down their neighborhood

For my nigga Carlton Fisk a kid who stay up in the box
A tribute to Carlton Fisk, who has been in and out of jail

Ain't no christmas ever since Santa scratched my name
Life has been tough since he was left out of holiday gifts

Off the giftlist, shit ain't been the same since "The Pain"
He's no longer on the list for good things and it's affected him since he's experienced pain

No forgiveness, dead man talkin bout he lifted
He won't forgive someone who has died who has talked smack about him

I'm livid, hands around the throat of a critic
Aggravated with critics who have taken him down

Yo Doctor, prescribe me a drug that can knock a
Asking a doctor for a powerful drug

Mule on his ass, take the blast out Binaca
Wants something strong enough to take away the power of even a donkey, like a strong breath mint

For real doe, Arsenic Production that kill slow
Arsenic Production creates songs meaningful enough to affect someone for life

Your eardrums, like a happy hooker with a dildo
Your eardrums will be very pleased, like a prostitute using a sex toy

I spas, on anyone who show his ass
He doesn't tolerate anyone showing off

I got the mob with me plus a full tank of gas
He has backup and plenty of fuel for their plans

Yo yo when Me and Meth swarm, you need a net to cover you
When he and Method Man team up, it's hard to handle

Turn the rap game into W-C-W
Make the rap game as competitive as the wrestling World Championship Wrestling league

Off the rope I hangglide to the throat
Jump off the ropes and attack the throat like a wrestler

Straight beef without french fries and a Coke
Serious confrontation without the usual fast food sides

"Doc's Da Name", da burglar, I serve ya
Doc's known for burglary and he's going to serve the competition

The "Lethal 5" from Riggs and Murtaugh
The dangerous and deadly crew from the Lethal Weapon films

Then SKRRRT out my whip with ran down tires
Speed off in his car with poor tires

With a chicken I met who hand out fliers
With a woman he's met who hands out flyers

Look, I'm an Aries, I don't have it
He's not very patient, as he's an Aries in astrology

My crew large enough to walk and cause traffic
His crew is big enough to stop traffic

Bounce like boxsprings on your Kraftmatic
Their bounce is high, like that of a bed spring

Before you be suin Doc for malpractice
Not being held responsible for medical problems

You couldn't bang from start
You never had any strength or talent to begin with

Your girl see you beat up and shit, get a change of heart
Your girlfriend will change her feelings toward you when she sees you weak and injured

Flaming darts is spittin, name the mark
Spitting ferocious insults to harm someone

My impact tore JFK plane apart
His words are so powerful that they could've caused the plane carrying John F. Kennedy to crash

Fire in the hole
Danger ahead
