This Universal Language, see my Language is Universal - If Life's a Play then this birth was a true rehearsal/
Holstar from Zambia, Poison from Argentina, a dangerous combination like Ike Turners fist and Tina/
And this ain't a misdemeanour, I'm getting 25 to Life and their giving me two seats for an electric chair/
Nemesis Inc is a pegasus drink-age, taking sips from pens and spit the words on a big page/
Coming Live from TnG and we're opening cans of Philchards and spill them on my dictionary/
Be the boss like Ross Hagan, this tracks the holy land ain't no room for no lost pagans/
Spanish in South America, English in Africa - it was written the British in Canada, the French in Grenada - Napoleon Bonaparte like the tower of Babel get the whole building torn apart/
And this ain't a bogus Art, I put my life in this thing and all I needed was hope and heart.
This is surgery - open heart - fill the words with soul and receive them with open hearts/

Verse1
I do this thing to bring another sound, you can respect I never dumb it down/
Man of the City, I was never from another town/
Lsk’s my battle ground, that’s the place I rep/
Everywhere I walk its Gold, I got the Midas step/
It’s like my mind is left, but I ain’t insane crazy/
My minds hazy, fresh out the womb – Jada Pinkett’s babies/
Homies get run over, the tread-marks of a land rover/
A drunk bolt, never run sober/
Hook
He’s The H.O.L.S.T.A.R and we’re the Z.O.N.E – F.A.M.I.L.Y/
Man of the City and he’s now taking charge, yeah, yeah/
Man of the City and he’s now taking charge/ x 2
Verse2
See I’m bicoastal, grind’s postal, checking with my bifocals/
Many choose a single path, that’s why they die local/
My hustle’s International, kids try to take a bite, I got a different style/
I’m Dope G, Al Kan-I before the master copy, I’m Lyric-Al/
See cats wanna arrest me now, Method Man’s postmortem – they wanna Test-Tical/
Hook
He’s The H.O.L.S.T.A.R and we’re the Z.O.N.E – F.A.M.I.L.Y/
Man of the City and he’s now taking charge, yeah, yeah/
Man of the City and he’s now taking charge/ x 2

Jealousy I said got the whole industry mad at me I said/
but see I, see I, see I, see I said - it wasn't me that said it here that Hip Hop's dead/
I feel like a rastafarian and grip my dread/
Cause most of these rappers suck they love to give that head/
But I'mo tell once or twice - that even if lose my voice you still wouldn't be half as nice/
from sell out shows to sell outs show, they killing us with piracy, too many monopolies/
and everybody wanna kick game, but im a veteran so im the one thats gonna get blamed/
we don't have examples, only few screws loose, put on em on a track and watch them lose cool/
started with fruity loops dude, now cubase is the reason we are still weilding protools/
He was once considered a pro too - but now making wack songs and hanging out with those fools/
Keep it afloat like it was boat crew, when the bridge is over who is the one that you're gonna go to?
The H.o.l.s.t.a.r - the industry cat - Took hip hop there now he wants it back/
Sick and tired of reggaeton rappers, we paint scene, the paint it backwards/
they're making holes we're tired of making patches/
They won't ignore they'll listen,came from no crowds to big brothers stages/
we rewrote history and flipped all the pages, Captain of the ship in the zed invasion/
Bar for Bar bantu baza kolewa, child of the the east zina yanga si nkole why?
Arms like octopus but even more eyes, vocubularly is sicker written than most guys/
The Heavy Obstreperous Archetype of Lyricist, the industry needs me...
like desert rain, I'm missed always...I list hallways/
formed a flow forever young...a cunning linguist blow for blow a better tongue/
tell the kids, that the kid is back - flood lsk streets with running shoes yeah the better run,
better aim, I got a better gun, the last of a dying breed, hit it i got a better drum/

Intro
Yeah, this one is for the ladies...
cause every now and then you need to be reminded,
how your man feels about you,
so this one is for you...
Hook
You, You - Cause I know that you're worth my living,
I know that you're worth my living x 2
Verse 1
I just want you to lie there, but baby girl never lie there/
Even if black's the color of death, I'll never die of fear/
Honesty is the first word, hang on hooks like its chandeliers/
I see the light falling trying to catch it like running tears/
Beauty is skin deep but I believe that yours is deeper/
You're always on my mind and lady you're a keeper/
You took my heart and you placed it next to yours/
I go, I'm coming back like that which comes to shore/
We're living in sync (sinc) like plates in still water/
You're my audiogasm, tapes is still taller/
I trust you lady, so trust me maybe/
But love trusts without a doubt, so trust invade me/
I picture you and me in a bus with babies/
But they say I love to fantasise, so I must be crazy/
Woman it is till the death, you're on my mind right/
So if its wrong, it's considered left/
Hook
You, You - Cause I know that you're worth my living,
I know that you're worth my living x 2
Verse 2
The next thing I need is loyalty, cause I will treat you like you're royalty/
Heart of Slave, Blood of a King and that is pure to me/
I'm so sincere, the road seems clear/
And if you and I create a path, it all seems near/
The Hardest times are the worst times, best to remain diverse then/
Take eight bars each, script with a versed pen/
You're the greatest love I ever wrote and then she uttered words, thats the greatest love that ever spoke/
We take trips on a tender spoke, cycle my love through the trenches, a soldier in despair/
Its one on one, no two on two in this pair, you and I till the day we die, so the world's unfair/
The last thing I need's affection, your tender touch excites kings, like the rage that a fight brings/
So this union is a nice thing, made to last, set in stone with a bright ring/
Hook
You, You - Cause I know that you're worth my living,
I know that worth my living x 4
Outro
Yeah, this one is for the ladies...
cause every now and then you need to be reminded,
how your man feels about you,
so this one is for you...
