Booby Trap
RZA Lyrics

When I was young, I slept with a battery on my tongue
I was so dedicated to music that I even practiced my spitting technique while sleeping

So when I spit, the impact with the sting of a stun gun
My rhymes pack so much power that they hit you like a weapon

At full blast, rock your cradle, fatal razorblades graze you Split you open, stitch you back wit a staple
I can spin such powerful rhymes that they shake you to your core and leave you with wounds that need mending

I'm football head, I put your head Into a brook, all four, your momma wouldn't look at ya'll Gold from the Panama Canal, Alabama gal Got me laid up on my nuts like kapow
I'm so good at this that I could even put a football-shaped dent in your skull, and right now I'm so rich from my rapping that it's going to my head

B O B Boy's fast as Bruce Leroy Meet the rap Galactus, blow planets off his axis My glock is plastic, my dick is magic Stretch up the Power you like Mr. Fantastic
I'm so good at this that I'm like a superhero who can move planets with my rapping and my rhymes are so powerful that they can have a magical effect, even if my gun is just plastic

Stop, it's a booby trap Wouldn't you rather have a Digi or a Scooby Snack? Digi Snack yeah, while we living in a booby trap
Be careful, this trap is meant to catch you - but wouldn't you rather just enjoy some good music instead of worrying about traps?

Yo, when it comes to this mic device, you get ate Like the Gingerbread Man tryna cross the lake Or the Winchester, call my white son Lester Poindexter Tell 'em bring back the black mack, strapped with two extra
I am so good at rapping that I could easily defeat anyone who tries to challenge me. I am like a hunter, ready to take on any challenge with an array of weapons at my disposal.

Clips, where's the natural, words inside the apple Pot holes in the street, it cracks the Jeep axle Shrivel your heart to a raisin, shorty star gazing Yeah, he got steeper than dunce, once he start blazing blunts
My rhymes are so powerful that they can have a physical effect, breaking down even the toughest barriers like a potholed road or a car, and can make your heart shrink with fear. Even the most foolish person becomes powerful in my presence.

Beef and get drown in Hunt's Your flame get toast, your best bet to punt I lounge like a hungry jaguar into aqua Trying to catch a fish that multiply like the Magua
Don't mess with me in a battle or you'll end up destroyed. You won't be able to put up any resistance and your best option will be to give up. My focus is like a predator trying to catch prey that are almost impossible to catch.

Pocket fat be Jabba the Hutt, Clan gallops up Feel The Force of my steel but you can't count the caliber Digi, Digi, Digi, all inside your city Microphone on the roam like Capone and Frank Nitty
I am so powerful that I can intimidate even the wealthiest and most powerful people. My rhymes are like a weapon that people can't even count and I am everywhere at all times, like legendary crime bosses.

I don't got a taste for blood or flesh skin My mind like Professor X from the X-Men One line ‘cause mc's to write their albums down Devils only come amongst you if you allow them now
I don't need to resort to violence to make my powerful statement. I have the intelligence and wisdom of a superhero who can read minds and predict the future. My rhymes are so powerful that they will make other rappers look amateur, and negativity only comes in if we let it.

Do to trading they infiltrate with persuasion That desire to rob and steel and make slaves of all Living luxury destructively, conductively Improper nature, privately and publicly
People who come in with persuasive arguments will try and convince you to do things that will harm you and benefit them. The desire to control others and benefit at their expense is a luxury that will ultimately destroy us all if we allow it, even if it happens privately.

Man so stupid when confronted by something he don't Understand, he shoot it, the whole world's polluted My earth gave birth to a universal, change us Scribes reflect the Child born in the Bethlehem manger
People often react violently when they don't understand something, and this can lead to conflicts that spill over into the rest of the world. But my music is so powerful that it can transform the entire world, and the inspiration for it comes from a universal source that has been around for centuries.

Devils try to steal me of my intellect, rob me of my culture Like they white washing sculptures Like they snatching down my posters But it's been caught through the eyes of Minolta
Negative forces are always trying to rob me of my power and influence, just like they whitewash history by taking away our cultural heritage. But my power is so great that it has been captured for all time, even if it is not visible to the naked eye.
