Triumph
Wu-Tang Clan and Cappadonna Lyrics

What y'all thought y'all wasn't gon' see me?
Did you really think you wouldn't see me?

I'm the Osiris of this shit
I'm the ruler and leader of this rap game

Wu-Tang is here forever, motherfuckers
Wu-Tang will always be present and influential

This like, this '97
This is reminiscent of the year 1997

Aight my niggas and my niggarettes
Okay, my male and female friends

Let's do it like this
Let's proceed in this manner

I'ma rub your ass in the moonshine
I'm going to metaphorically humiliate you

Let's take it back to '79
Let's revisit the year 1979

I bomb atomically, Socrates' philosophies and hypotheses
I deliver lyrical bombs and intellectual ideas

Can't define how I be droppin' these mockeries
You can't comprehend how I effortlessly deliver these insults

Lyrically perform armed robbery
I steal the attention and respect with my powerful lyrics

Flee with the lottery, possibly they spotted me
Escape with the winnings, perhaps they caught a glimpse of me

Battle-scarred Shogun, explosion when my pen hits tremendous
I'm a warrior who leaves a lasting impact when I write

Ultra-violet shine blind forensics
My brilliance is so intense, it blinds investigators

I inspect view through the future see millennium
I analyze the present with a futuristic perspective

Killa Beez sold fifty gold, sixty platinum
The Wu-Tang affiliates have achieved great commercial success

Shackling the masses with drastic rap tactics
We captivate the audience with our powerful rap strategies

Graphic displays melt the steel like blacksmiths
Our vivid performances have a transformative effect

Black Wu jackets, Queen Beez ease the guns in
Our iconic clothing and influential women introduce weapons

Rumble with patrolmen, tear gas laced the function
Engage in violent clashes with law enforcement, filling the air with tear gas

Heads by the score take flight, incite a war
Our fans enthusiastically join the battle, provoking a conflict

Chicks hit the floor, diehard fans demand more
Female fans fall to the ground, passionate supporters crave additional content

Behold the bold soldier, control the globe slowly
Witness the courageous warrior who steadily dominates the world

Proceeds to blow, swingin' swords like Shinobi
Proceeds to attack, wielding weapons like a skilled ninja

Stomp grounds and pound footprints in solid rock
Assert dominance and leave a lasting impact on the foundation

Wu got it locked, performin' live on your hottest block
Wu-Tang has a firm grip, delivering live performances in popular neighborhoods

As the world turns, I spread like germs
As time passes, I multiply and make my presence known

Bless the globe with the pestilence, the hard-headed never learn
Infect the world with disease, stubborn individuals refuse to accept the lesson

It's my testament to those burned
It's my statement dedicated to those who have suffered

Play my position in the game of life, standing firm
I fulfill my role in the journey of existence, remaining steadfast

On foreign land, jump the gun out the frying pan
In unfamiliar territory, take quick action to escape a dangerous situation

Into the fire, transform into the Ghost Rider
Enter a challenging situation, adopting a fearless and unstoppable persona

A six-pack and A Streetcar Named Desire
Alcohol and a reference to Tennessee Williams' play symbolize hedonism

Who got my back? In the line of fire, holding back
Who supports me? In a dangerous situation, exercising restraint

What? My peoples if you with me, where the fuck you at?
What? If you're my people, where are you now?

Niggas is strapped and they tryna twist my beer cap
People are armed and attempting to harm me

It's court adjourned for the bad seed from bad sperm
The trial ends for the misguided individual from a troubled background

Herb got my wig fried like a bad perm
Drugs have severely affected my mental state

What the blood clot? We smoke pot, and blow spots
What the hell? We consume marijuana and cause a stir

You wanna think twice? I think not
Do you want to reconsider? I don't think so

The Iron Lung ain't got to tell you where it's coming from
I don't have to explain the source of my unparalleled talent

Guns of Navarone tearing up your battle zone
Powerful weapons causing destruction in your territory

Rip through your slums
Violently penetrate and devastate your impoverished communities

I twist darts from the heart, tried and true
I skillfully craft impactful lyrics from the depths of my soul

Loot my voice on the LP
Profit from the sales of my recorded songs

Martini on the slang rocks, certified chatterbox
Metaphorically enjoying a drink while fluently expressing myself

Vocabulary 'Donna talking, tell your story walking
Using a wide range of words to dismiss your explanations

Take cover, kid, what? Run for your brother, kid
Protect yourself, young one. What? Escape alongside your sibling

Run for your team, and your 'six can't rhyme' groupies
Flee with your comrades and fans who can't match our rhyming abilities

So I can squeeze with the advantage and get wasted
So I can exploit the situation and indulge in excessive drinking

My deadly notes reigns supreme
My powerful lyrics and music dominate

Your thought is basic compared to mine
Your ideas are simple in comparison to mine

Domino effect, arts and crafts, paragraphs contain cyanide
My impact spreads like a chain reaction, my lyrics are lethal

Take a free ride on my thought
Join me on a journey through my mind

I got the fashion catalogs for all y'all to all praise due to God
I possess the knowledge and style that deserves admiration and acknowledgment

The saga continues
The story continues to unfold

Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang
The Wu-Tang Clan, the Wu-Tang Clan

Olympic torch flaming, we burn so sweet
Our presence and impact are intense, yet enjoyable

The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat
Experiencing the excitement of success and the pain of failure

We crush slow, flaming deluxe slow for
We dominate at our own pace, with a luxurious swag

Judgment Day cometh, conquer, it's war
A day of reckoning is approaching, we will conquer in this battle

Allow us to escape Hell, globe spinning bomb
Let us escape from a place of turmoil, spreading our impactful music worldwide

Pocket full of shells out the sky Golden Arms
Carrying a handful of ammunition, bestowed by a powerful individual

Tunes spit the shitty Mortal Kombat sound
Our music releases verbal attacks similar to the violence in Mortal Kombat

The fake false step make the blood stain the ground
Making a wrong move results in tragic consequences

A jungle junkie, vigilante tantrum
An addict in a chaotic environment, engaging in reckless acts

A death kiss catwalk, squeeze another anthem
A deadly display of confidence, releasing another powerful song

Hold it for ransom, tranquilized with anesthesia
Keeping it hostage, calm and numb with sedation

My orchestra, graceful, music ballerinas
My music is like a coordinated dance, elegant and captivating

My music Sicily, rich California smell
My music is reminiscent of the culture in Sicily, with the essence of California

An axe killer adventure, paint a picture well
A thrilling journey of a murderer, skillfully portrayed

I sing a song from Sing-Sing, sippin' on ginseng
I perform a song inspired by Sing-Sing prison, while consuming ginseng

Righteous wax chaperon, rotating ring king
Righteous and spiritual protector of the music industry, wearing a rotating and powerful ring

March of the wooden soldiers, C-Cypher Punks couldn't hold us
Advancing like toy soldiers, even computer hackers couldn't stop us

A thousand men rushing in, not one nigga was sober
An army of men charging, none of them were in a sober state

Perpendicular to the square, we stand bold like Flare
Unconventional and confident, we stand out like a bright flare

Escape from your dragon's lair
Free yourself from a dangerous and oppressive situation

In particular, my beats travel like a vortex
Specifically, my beats circulate with great force and intensity

Through your spine to the top of your cerebral cortex
From your spine to the highest part of your brain, my music impacts you

Make you feel like you bust a nut from raw sex
My music gives you an intense and pleasurable sensation

Enter through your right ventricle clog up your bloodstream
Enter through a specific part of your heart, obstructing your blood flow

Heart terminal like Grand Central Station
Heart condition as severe as a busy train station

Program fat baselines on Novation
Create powerful and impactful basslines using the Novation music equipment

Getting drunk like I'm fucking duckin' five-year probation
Getting intoxicated and avoiding the consequences of a legal sentence

War of the masses, the outcome disastrous
Conflict among the people, resulting in a terrible outcome

Many of the victim families save their ashes
The families of the victims preserve ashes as a memory

A million names on walls, engraved in plaques
Countless names memorialized on walls, etched in commemorative plaques

Those who went back received penalties for their acts
Those who returned to the past faced consequences for their actions

Another heart is torn as close ones mourn
More sadness arises as loved ones grieve

Those who stray, niggas get slayed on the song
Those who deviate are met with a harsh response in the music

The track renders helpless and suffers from multiple stab wounds
The song leaves the listener powerless and wounded

And leaks sounds that's heard
And releases sounds that are audible

93 million miles away from
A great distance of 93 million miles separates us

Came one to represent the Nation
One of us arrived to represent the Wu-Tang Clan

This is a gathering of the masses
This is a gathering of a large group of people

That come to pay respects to the Wu-Tang Clan
Who have come to honor and appreciate the Wu-Tang Clan

As we engage in battle, the crowd now screams in rage
As we participate in a conflict, the audience erupts in anger

The high chief Jamel Irief takes the stage
The respected leader Jamel Irief steps forward

Light is provided through sparks of energy
Illumination is achieved through bursts of passion

From the mind that travels in rhyme form
From the mind that explores through poetic expression

Giving sight to the blind
Granting understanding to those who lack it

The dumb are mostly intrigued by the drum
Those lacking intelligence are primarily captivated by the rhythm

Death only one can save self from
Only death can deliver us from our struggles

This relentless attack of the track spares none
This continuous assault of the music affects everyone

Yo, yo, yo, fuck that
Hey, hey, hey, disregard that

Look at all these crab niggas laid back
Observe these unoriginal individuals being lazy

Lampin' like them gray and black Puma's on my man's rack
Relaxing like the gray and black Puma sneakers on my friend's shelf

Codeine was forced in your drink
Codeine was secretly added to your beverage

You had a navy green salamander fiend
You were under the influence of drugs, appearing lethargic

Bitches overheard you scream
Women heard you shout loudly

You two-faces, scum of the slum, I got your whole body numb
You deceitful person from the impoverished area, I have rendered you completely numb

Blowing like Shalamar in '81
Enjoying success and fame like the musical group Shalamar in 1981

Sound convincing, thousand dollar cork-pop convention
Presenting something with great conviction, like opening an expensive bottle of champagne

Hands like Sonny Liston, get fly permission
Having powerful and skilled hands, like the boxer Sonny Liston, granting oneself the freedom to soar

Hold the fuck up, I'll unfasten your wig, bad luck
Wait a moment, I'll remove your wig, bringing misfortune

I humiliate, separate the English from the Dutch
I embarrass and distinguish different nationalities

It's me, Black Noble Drew Ali, came in threes
It's me, representing Black Noble Drew Ali, appearing in a group of three

We like the Genovese, sazon season these degrees
We're similar to the Genovese crime family, adding flavor to our knowledge

It's Earth, 93 million miles from the first
It's planet Earth, located 93 million miles from the sun

Rough turbulence, the wave burst, split the megahertz
Chaos and instability, causing a disruption in the vibrations

Ayo, that's amazing
Hey, that's astonishing

Gun in your mouth talk, verbal foul hawk
Threatening language, like a bird of prey, directed at your mouth

Connect thoughts to make my man child walk
Formulating ideas to inspire others to take action

Swift notarizer, Blue-Tang, all up in the high-riser
Quick and efficient in authorizing documents, with a strong presence in tall buildings

New York Yank visor, word tranquilizer
Wearing a Yankees visor, my words calm and soothe

Adjust the dosage, delegate my Clan with explosives
Modify the dosage, entrust my Clan with powerful weapons

While, my pen blow lines ferocious
Meanwhile, my writing delivers fierce and intense lines

Mediterranean, see y'all, the number one draft pick
Similar to the Mediterranean, I overlook all of you as the top choice

Tear down the beat, God, then delegate the God to see God
Dismantle the music with great skill, then pass on the role to another talented individual

The swift chancellor, flex the white gold tarantula
The quick leader, displaying the power and value of a rare white gold tarantula

Track truck diesel, play the weed God substantiala
Appearing like a powerful vehicle, while also asserting dominance as a cannabis expert

Max mostly, undivided then slide in sickening
Reaching the maximum level, remaining focused before sliding in with disturbing actions

Guaranteed made 'em jump like Rod Strickland
I promise to make them jump in excitement, similar to the basketball player Rod Strickland
