Beneath The Surface


Stringplay (Like This, Like That)


[Method Man]
Uh and it goes like this
Uh uh uh uh it goes like that
Now let me tell you who I am
Up early in the morning, dressed in black
Who dat, who dat, who dat...

[GZA/Genius]
Yo yo
Marvelous theatrical drama on stage
Broadway classical led men to rage
Like currents, the beat change and now the flow is strange
You in the arctic with wolves that viciously maim
Thugs that roam clubs in the dark with fireworks that spark
Saltwater vibrations comin from sharks
Bloodthirsty kids bite just as well as I write
You're like secretaries who can't type, you're no use
Broke down vessels who want a boost, there's no juice
Quick fast, you get stumped cause you played, your organ pump Kool-Aid
From Indiana with the jones of a lost crusade
Hip hop done hit the church
Choir girls rockin mini skirts
The b-side kept plenty hurt
Push like the shovels in snowstorms
And stack piles of foul, the shit you must grow on (grow on, grow on, grow on...)

[Method Man]
Chorus (4x)
Uh and it goes like this
Uh uh uh uh it goes like that

[Method Man]
Pay no attention to the evil they speak
You caught the beef with the eagle eye, poisonous beats from underneath
Crack the concrete with two left feet, hand on my meat
Ain't no games here we playin for keeps (we play for keeps!)
Introducing the crowd seducing man on the street
Penitentiaries is either half dead or too sweet
Back to basic, can dish it god plus I can take it
Wagin war within the matrix, it's hard to see
Touch, hear, smell or even taste it, take your places
We runnin in these human races, bucked-naked
Backslappin, kid yappin
Actin villian, catchin feelins like he cap peelin
As if he killin every brick in every project building
From Cabrini Green to Tildens, sincerely yours
Mister Meth and Maximillion (the millions, the millions)

Chorus (4x)

Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Wu-Tang Killa Bees on the swarm
We play for keeps!
We play for keeps!
Wu-Tang Killa Bees on the swarm
And it goes like this
