Untouchable
T.S.T.B. Lyrics

This is poetry in motion
The song is a work of art in progressive motion

Try to catch on stay close to the host
Listen carefully and follow along with the message

And MC's try to make the road rough but I'm coastin
Other rappers try to compete but the artist is effortlessly succeeding

Ladies hear the rhymes rub em on like lotion
The artist's words are soothing and attractive to women

Hit spots soothin can't stop movin
The music and lyrics have an enjoyable flow and energy

Go ahead bust a sweat and you can bet I'm still coolin
Despite the intensity of the music, the artist remains composed

When I detain it's a brainstorm
The artist's thoughts and lyrics create a powerful impact

Never the same form every brain I rained on is warm
The artist's messages are always unique and memorable

Takin a trip through Memory Lane to Melody
Reflecting on past experiences with music and lyrics

See if you could tell if these thoughts to fell MC's
Comparing his own skills to those of other rappers

Could do you justice, but you can't touch this
Other rappers cannot compare to the artist's talent

Some kid just tried to bust this but he just missed
Another rapper failed to successfully compete with the artist

I'm universal and much more merciful
The artist's appeal and compassion extend beyond just one audience

So versatile with the style it's reversible
The artist's musical style is adaptable and expansive

I get away even if I say a curse or two
The artist can still be successful despite the occasional use of profanity

First, let me bust another verse for you
The artist proceeds to share more of his lyrics

Your arms too short to box with Ra so quit
You are not skilled enough to compete with the artist so don't try

You don't want no kind of conflict
It is not worth trying to compete with the artist

Or you'll get stripped as the rhyme is ripped
You will be defeated if you try to compete with the artist

Pick up the pieces now ain't that peace yeah I'm hip
Moving on and finding peace after realizing the artist is unbeatable

Everything I said flows since my intro
The entire song has had a continuous, flowing rhythm

I plant a thought extend and then grow
The artist's lyrics plant an idea in the listener's mind

Holdin' my pen tightly it might be
The artist takes his writing seriously and puts effort into it

Controversy at first when I write the
The artist's lyrics may stir up controversy initially

Chords of research don't just take it for granted
The artist's lyrics are well thought out and have meaning behind them

When I'm gone my mind remains a planet
The artist's legacy will live on even after he is gone

If I keep buildin, and teach the children
The artist hopes to inspire and educate future generations

So when they read in between the lines it's filled in
The artist hopes his listeners will understand and appreciate the meaning behind his lyrics

I break to meditate, not a peep, concentrate
The artist takes time to reflect and focus on his craft

Till I'm deep awake, but not asleep
The artist stays attentive and alert even while reflecting

At the same time risin and advertisin
The artist continues to grow and promote himself and his music

What is true, keep advised and you can stay wise
The artist offers advice to listeners to stay informed and knowledgeable

And I'm untouchable
The artist is unbeatable and unmatched in his skills

Comin' over the bridge take a peak at the skyline
The artist views his surroundings and reflects on his success

'Cause that's how I shine not only when I rhyme
The artist's talent and success extend beyond just his music

Why sell a capsule of crack I don't have to

I rhyme and sign million dollar contracts to
The artist's talent and hard work have earned him successful opportunities

Put message on records that's graced with hard bass
The artist's music combines strong beats with meaningful lyrics

Smugglin' microphones, this ain't Scarface

Whoever talked that talk, I want to hawk
The artist is ready to take on anyone who tries to compete with him

And don't try to Escape From New York

Cross a 110th Street lookin for a problem
The artist is not afraid to stand up for himself and his music

It's Hell Up In Harlem, watch Ra solve em
The artist will overcome any obstacles and succeed in his career

I hear the music clear as I get near
The artist has a deep connection to and appreciation for music

The artist's music is a tribute to the legacy of the famous theater

Take a step back when I rap I step up to you...

You're supposed to keep your composure

But you hear the drum said go then it gets so hype
The music becomes more intense and exciting as the beat picks up

It's like nitro opponents get petro

Remember the trademark left by the are
The artist's legacy and influence will remain even after he is gone

That's never soft or smooth it's comin off the hardest
The artist's music is rough and intense, not soft or subtle

In effect, you could die-tect the imposter
The artist can easily distinguish between genuine talent and those who are not authentic

Takin my props, Rakim is still proper

I'm a prophet, you can't stop it, when I drop it
The artist's lyrics are powerful and prophetic

Everything I say, coincide with the topic
The artist's lyrics are always relevant and on point

Thoughts bounce around till my skull is fractured
The artist's creative process can be intense and exhausting

Inside my brain it's all manufactured
The artist carefully crafts and plans his lyrics and music

As we go deeper it's hard to find
The more the artist reflects on his music, the harder it is to find new inspiration

Don't even think about it, cause you can't read my mind
The artist's talent and creativity are personal and cannot be replicated

It's clear so therefore you need a ear or inclined
