Def Jam In The Motherland - LL COOL J

Yeah, yeah, checkin' 'em out

Special shout-out, keepin' on

Check it out y’all, my man in the house…

Conquerer, absolute killer of all

Taker of blood, bouncin' heads like balls

Murderer of suckers, mutilater of the meek

I get ill, so blood spills, every time I speak

Droppin bombs to amputate your ego

Suckers all weak, so let the best go, me go

They talk and talk, I invade and take over

Forget Maaco, you gonna need a make-over

I’m ferocious, animalistic, an animal

On the mic — I’m a cannibal

I eat livers, hearts, legs and arms

They crown me the King of doin' nothin' but harm

I’m in tune with the Universe and I’ma make you the first vic I kill quick,

so you went from crew to hearse

I’ma Titan, keepin' you frightened

I went to the Motherland, so now I’m enlightened

There’s a…

Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

It’s a Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

From Côte d’Ivoire to Senegal to Egypt

Cool J I’m slay and I’m fully equipped

To decapitate, amputate and take titles

The legend in leather, I’ma real live idol

And Ima take souls, condemn weak men

And make microphones bend again and again

Cause, I’m bloodthirsty, why’d you try to curse me

You’ll lose the battle even if you out-rehearse me

I’ma rip holes watch heads roll, like a mole

When I’m strollin' with a neck full of gold

My battles' like a blackout, you can’t back out

Only difference, no time to feel a track out

It’s a…

Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

It’s a Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

So come forward, admit you’re guilty

Admit that your thoughts some New Jack killed me

Admit you were sleepin' on the skills of L

Now know that I handle mine, very well

I burn buildings, eat emcee’s

Smack DJ’s and tell conceited girls please

They try to ban hard, but I’m a vanguard

And they could never get a piece of the man Todd

King Posse ruler and high roller

You losin' it son, your games' gettin' colder

It’s a…

Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

It’s a Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

I’m a Monarch, the Warlord of light

The eliminator, and I’ma score tonight

Somethin' like Merlin, but it goes much deeper

Not just another rapper with a chain and a beeper

One sample is ample for emcees’ll get trampled

Bein' as you forgot, I’ma give you a sample

My vocabulary’s legendary.

My brother, you’re temporary

So put your name in the obituary

Step back the conquerer spreads his wings

Kindergarten rappers, I’m back to change things

I rock the clearest, one hell of a lyricist

I can’t miss and I’m kinda like a chemist

When I put a potion together it’s clever and fatal

You can never make a move on me you’re still prenatal

Grip the mic tight sometimes I get callouses

And when I’m through, you face paralysis

I’m gettin' thinner, watch me eat dinner

I’m down to skin a beginner to be a winner

It’s a…

Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

It’s a Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

Who gets the roughest, you know the answer

You’re a dandelion, I’m a panther

When I pick up the mic, it’s bravissimo

King of braggadocio, I’m magnifico

When I rock hard, stroll long, and walk bad

Cause I know it’s makes the fake sucker ducks mad

I came back to smack wacks and pull cards

Introducin' the original Todd

Just like a bloodhound but I gotcha spellbound

Your rhymes are snowbound and I can throwdown

I’m like a thundercloud, I drop heavy

Hold steady, get ready, you’re petty confetti

Techniques and styles — they ain’t ready

Ah, ah, yeah — full of horsepower and I’ma devour

Steam-clean when I scream you’re soft as cauliflower

I set the trap and caught you like a brown mouse

Then flip and do a Bruce Lee roundhouse

No threat exist, no man can stand

Say mic check and expect to take command

Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland

It’s a Def Jam in the Motherland, Def Jam in the Motherland

Def Jam in the Motherland, in the Motherland
