[Hook: Block McCloud and Will Tell] (x2)
Hot, the pot’s cooking.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
Got your spot tooken.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
No, we’re not rookies.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
Look, it’s off the hook in the Academy✦ of Brooklyn✦
[Verse 2: Block McCloud]
I’m the wolf in sheep’s clothing to pull the wool
Over✦ your peeps. Woven✦ into✦ the sheet
We’re sewing✦ it up and keep going. Feel the heat open✦
A window.✦ The wind blow like your shorty✦ when she deepthroat me
Each quotient hard to figure✦ like making✦ governors
Out of Schwarzenegger with carbon paper✦
I’ma✦ burn you like Garcia✦ Vegas,✦ I’ma✦ learn you
Like you starving for data.✦ I’m not a god. I’m greater
Got the power✦ to fail and still succeed and sail the Seven✦ Seas
Without the Holy✦ Grail or Golden✦ Fleece
Spoke in olden✦ speech, a citizen told the priests
How I uphold✦ the peace holding a piece
An unholy✦ seed’s growing, swollen ovaries✦
To leave foes broke like smoked✦ weed
And reach you like a contact, breach you like a contract
Eat you like a swamp rat, kick you comrades
[Hook: Block McCloud and Will Tell] (x2)
Hot, the pot’s cooking.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
Got your spot tooken.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
No, we’re not rookies.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
Look, it’s off the hook in the Academy✦ of Brooklyn✦
[Verse 3: Pumpkinhead]
I’m a villainous soldier.✦ Niggas✦ ain’t told ya
The shit that I spit will rip if your shoulder lift boulders
Burn muscle, turn ligaments to sulfur✦
Ill hustler. Barracuda, nigga—I scare Cobras✦
Oprah couldn’t hold the weight I supply✦ to the fiends
Good music,✦ hot shows, rock those, not froze
Chop those. Y’all could die like the sons of Saddam✦
I’ll make you fisher✦ dudes✦ fry like the Sun’s in my hand
Brooklyn✦ Ac’, we running the land. Open✦ School Night
You in the corner✦ with a dunce cap in your hand
Capture a tan worse than laying on the beach
With your face in the sand. I’ll put your face in the land
Six feet deep we creep, too deep with heat
Y’all sweet cheesecake niggas✦ for making✦ a band
On the world I’ma✦ flex. I earned✦ my respect
You’re mad ‘cause your girl with my pearls on her neck, nigga✦
[Hook: Block McCloud and Will Tell] (x2)
Hot, the pot’s cooking.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
Got your spot tooken.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
No, we’re not rookies.✦ Ha, got you looking✦
Look, it’s off the hook in the Academy✦ of Brooklyn✦
[Verse 4: Mr. Metaphor]
I’m ready✦ to blow. I’m hot, heavy✦ to hold
A lot heavier✦ load. I’m a soda✦ pop
Hop into✦ the zone, do not answer✦ the phone
There’s✦ potholes in the lawn and the door’s on watch
Five minutes outside. I’m not ready✦ to die
The doctor, he said, “Hi.” “Ayyo, what up, doc?”
I found the rest of my poem. I should have left it alone✦
‘Cause now it’s stressing my dome. Is it gonna✦ stop?
Hip hop where no goes—it’s a call of the wild
Money✦ got you looking,✦ the block hot, is cooking✦
We stop, drop, and roll out. BK Ac’ is no doubt
We take back the 90s—the UG’s behind✦ me
We Bruce Lee the market.✦ This new beat’s retarded
Yo, who heaves✦ the hardest? And I got you looking✦
And I got you hooked✦ on the track. That’s the Brooklyn,✦ the Ac’
Yes ‘cause Brooklyn✦ is back. Take a ride now
