[Verse 2: Busta Rhymes]
Stop nigga,✦ hold up, you know I don't quit
You see I'm back and I'm comin'✦ to smash your shit
And Allah back with the god and bus-a-bus nigga✦
This time I'm Bringin' the shovel✦ so I can come and dig another grave
For all of you bustards what the fuck you think you doin'
I'll put a stop to your function✦ and anybody movin'✦
And then I'll fuck up production✦ and any✦ crew you flew in
You ain't with me, you against me, The loser side you chosen✦
Anyway,✦ word to Iz, you niggas✦ know I ain't finished
I'll Fuck up every✦ hood, and I'm back to handle my business
You niggas✦ thinking you though like you ate a can of spinach
In till we mash on you faggots and make you change up your image✦
Flip mode in this bitch, Ruff Ryders is with me
You see we back on the block and yes, we runnin'✦ the city✦
Now you niggas✦ know the flow less ain't controlin' the committee
Nothing'✦ should be movin'✦ unless✦ my crew in it, you feel me
[Hook: Swizz Beatz]
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
Now move.. move.. move.. move..
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
Now move.. move.. move.. move..
[Verse 3: DMX]
If there is money✦ involved, I want half
Niggas✦ is funny✦ to watch, go head laugh
Ain't nothing✦ to smile about✦
For real dog, niggas✦ is wildin'✦ out
Niggas✦ will pound you out
They found you out in desert✦
Leg missin',✦ head missin'✦
Something like 28 days missin'✦
And you know how the desert✦ do a nigga✦
Brake you down quick, residue a nigga✦
Can't stop the flow, Niggas✦ stop and go
But whenever✦ I drop, a million✦ out the door
Y'all niggas✦ know, X is not to be fucked with
Y'all run around✦ on some duck shit, what, to suck dick
Fucking bitch, you niggas✦ know I don't mind scrapping
When I see you I see you whatever✦ happens,✦ happens✦
This ain't just rappin',✦ niggas✦ talk a good one
You know what let that go, see me in the hood son
[Hook: Swizz Beatz]
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
Now move.. move.. move.. move..
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
When I Come thru Everything✦ gon' Stop
Now move.. move.. move.. move..

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"You niggas thinking you though like you ate a can of spinach"

① A pop-culture reference to Popeye the Sailor man, gaining temporary strength.② A dismissal of rivals as cartoons or children who believe they are tougher than they are.

"Bringin' the shovel so I can come and dig another grave"

① Literal act of burial preparation.② Metaphorical intention to end the careers or relevance of competing artists.

Exceptional vocal projection and rhythmic command

Cohesive flow that maintains momentum across the entire verse

Strong integration of label-identity branding within the rhythmic structure

Vocabulary relies on standard genre tropes

Limited metaphorical depth; focuses primarily on confrontation

Use of dated slurs detracts from the lyrical sophistication
