Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Verse 1:
Yo I be ready to plug all of these thug type scrubs
While y'all stack coins I stack nothin but dubs
While you be at the club tryin to step to hoes
I'll be around the globe tryin to rock the shows
However it goes I still maintain the spot
But battlin Ras you gettin blown off the lot
I still roll up the sleeves
Then watch niggas fall like leaves
Breakin they breads
Got 'em headin back to the homerange
Now they tryin to summace they whole camp
My lambshade ready to fade
You better try to make a trade in the traff
To help your wack staff
Buried in the bath, my lyrics bubble and boil
It's Kut Masta Kurt, Ras ready to spoil
Now watch me uncall and bounce
You only add to an ounce
My pounds can cover ten miles of ground
The most profound you ever seen
So all that in-between shit
Don't really mean shit
The tighter the fit, the tighter it gets
We cuttin off the air
Sick of niggas with rhymes and no flair
But all that fanfair can leave your head swoll
Ras with the lyrics that's runnin outta control
There's only one goal I got
The shit's hot
And to the contrary we still rock the spot
Chorus x2:
Ras: Now how many times I got to drop these rhymes?
Planet Asia: And how many times you got to really outshine?
Ras: And how many times you goin cross these lines?
Planet Asia: Before you find out you dealin with the wrong kind?
Verse 2:
Over the top
The homegrown potent ass crop
That'll have your head swingin so fast it won't stop
I take a double shot o' the gat
So I can get the contact
Where these niggas findin they rhymes at?
I'm three times that
Bigger than y'all thought
Rasco, the nigga that's harder than asphault
Be in between the cracks
Like needles on the wax
Like Uncle Sam still be findin time to tax
My 7 point 5 be, live and in the flesh
With teflon bullets that sendin 'em in the chest
No need for stress
All really had enough
So bring on these niggas that think they bad enough
To give me, the Cali emcee, a hand full
At the same time, keepin these stadiumstands full
Rasco nigga you knows the program
Feelin on your girl while bumpin a slow jam
Chorus x2
Planet Asia:
Rasco
9-8 to 2-thou
The new style
Knowmsayin?
y'all better learn somethin
SoulFather Rasco
For Man Time Waits Not
So keep the shit hot
Yeah, this be the Planet Asia signin out

Yo I be ready to plug all of these thug type scrubs
I am prepared to take down all of these wannabe thugs
While y'all stack coins I stack nothin but dubs
While others focus on money, I focus on my skill
While you be at the club tryin to step to hoes
While you try to pick up women at the club,
I'll be around the globe tryin to rock the shows
I'll be traveling the world, performing live
However it goes I still maintain the spot
No matter what happens, I remain on top
But battlin Ras you gettin blown off the lot
But if you try to battle me, you'll be defeated easily
So wether or not y'all believe
Whether you believe me or not,
I still roll up the sleeves
I am still ready to work hard
Then watch niggas fall like leaves
And watch my opponents fall one by one
Breakin they breads
Defeating them easily
Got 'em headin back to the homerange
Sending them back home defeated
Now they tryin to summace they whole camp
Now they are trying to gather their entire team to defeat me
My lambshade ready to fade
I am ready to defeat my opponents
You better try to make a trade in the traff
You should try to improve your skills
To help your wack staff
To help your weak team
Buried in the bath, my lyrics bubble and boil
My lyrics are powerful and intense
It's Kut Masta Kurt, Ras ready to spoil
Kut Masta Kurt and I are ready to destroy our opponents
Now watch me uncall and bounce
Watch me move away gracefully
You only add to an ounce
You are insignificant to me
My pounds can cover ten miles of ground
I have a lot of influence and power
The most profound you ever seen
The most impressive you have ever witnessed
So all that in-between shit
All of the unnecessary stuff in between
Don't really mean shit
Does not matter or have any significance
The tighter the fit, the tighter it gets
The more challenging it is, the more I excel
We cuttin off the air
We are taking control of the situation
Sick of niggas with rhymes and no flair
Tired of people with no creativity or uniqueness
But all that fanfair can leave your head swoll
All that celebration can make you think too highly of yourself
Ras with the lyrics that's runnin outta control
My lyrics are so impressive they are unstoppable
There's only one goal I got
I only have one objective
The shit's hot
My skills are impressive
And to the contrary we still rock the spot
Despite what others say, we are still the best
Now how many times I got to drop these rhymes?
How many times do I have to prove myself?
And how many times you got to really outshine?
How many times do you have to prove yourself better than others?
And how many times you goin cross these lines?
How many times will you take risks and cross boundaries?
Before you find out you dealin with the wrong kind?
Before you regret facing us
That'll have your head swingin so fast it won't stop
My skills will leave you stunned
I take a double shot o' the gat
I am heavily armed
Where these niggas findin they rhymes at?
Where are these people getting their weak rhymes?
I'm three times that
I am three times better
Bigger than y'all thought
More impressive than you expected
Rasco, the nigga that's harder than asphault
I am tough and strong like asphalt
Be in between the cracks
I am everywhere, in between everything
Like needles on the wax
Like a needle on a vinyl record
Like Uncle Sam still be findin time to tax
Like the government always finding ways to take our money
My 7 point 5 be, live and in the flesh
I am real and alive, not just some recorded voice
With teflon bullets that sendin 'em in the chest
My words are like bullets, penetrating and powerful
No need for stress
There is no need to worry
All really had enough
Everyone is tired and ready to give up
So bring on these niggas that think they bad enough
Bring on those who think they are tough
To give me, the Cali emcee, a hand full
To challenge me, the Californian MC
At the same time, keepin these stadiumstands full
Attracting a huge crowd while defeating opponents
Rasco nigga you knows the program
You know what to expect from me
Feelin on your girl while bumpin a slow jam
Seducing your girl while listening to slow music
For Man Time Waits Not
Time is precious and waits for no one
So keep the shit hot
Keep pushing yourself to be better
Yeah, this be the Planet Asia signin out
This is Planet Asia signing off
