Sometimes

Hybrid



Ive been digging into crates

Ever since I was living in space

Before the ratrace

Before monkeys had human traits

I mastered numerology

And Big Bang theology

Performed lobotomies

With telekinetic psychology

Invented the mic

So I could start blessing it

Chin-checking kids to make my point like an impressionist

Many men have tried to shake us

But I twist mic cords in double-helixes

To show them what Im made of

I buckle knees like leg-braces

Cast a spell of instrumentalness on all of you emcees who hate us

So you can try on

Leave you without a shoulder to cry on

From now to infinity

Let icons be bygones

I fire bomb

Ghostly notes haunt this

I tried threats but moved onto a promise

I stomp s**t with or without an accomplice

And run the gauntlet with whoever that wants this



High voltage

This is the unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringing you up and taking you down

High voltage

Coming at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide



Akira

I put a kink in the backbones of clones with microphones

Never satisfied my rhyme jones

Spraying bright day over what you might say

My blood-types Krylon, Technicolour Type-A

On highways, right with road-rage

Cages of wind and cages of tin that bounce all around

Surround sound

Devouring the scene

Subliminal gangrene paintings

Overall the same things

Sing songs, karaoke, copy, bulls**t

Break bones verbally with sticks-and-stones tactics

Fourth dimension, combat convention

Write rhymes at ease while the track stands at attention

Meant to put you away

With the pencil, pistol, official, sixteen-line-a-rhyme missile

While you risk your all

I pick out all your flaws

Spin rah, blah, blah, blah

You can say you saw



High voltage

This is the unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringing you up and taking you down

High voltage

Coming at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide



High voltage

This is the unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringing you up and taking you down

High voltage

Coming at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide



Whos the man demanding you hand over your Land Rover?

No mans bolder than the Pharoahe when he jams

The plans over

I have fake sclerosis

The most ferocious

Why I spy, my third eye, distinctly high voltage

Thats why I need Ruby Quartz glasses

Cause when I glance theres a chance I might blast the masses

Subliminals trasmitted through piano

Integrated in flow

Calculated to nano

I use skills when I need

Please head the rhyme I hear when I plead when I proceed through time

I walk through walls an inanimate obsticles

Via induced reduction of cells and molecules

I bring the knowledge

You swallow the state

Thats a hologram

I box your head

Fatten your lip like Collogen

A telepath to deliver verses with no postage

Pharoahe Monch, Mike Shinoda

We high voltage



High voltage

This is the unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringing you up and taking you down

High voltage

Coming at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide



High voltage

This is the unforgettable sound

High voltage

Bringing you up and taking you down

High voltage

Coming at you from every side

High voltage

Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
