the last emperor - the banger (dirty) lyrics
the last emperor ft. tiye phoenix – “the banger”
[emcee(s): the last emperor]
[producer(s): set free]
[hook/vocals: tiye phoenix]
[sample: cymande – “dove”]
[verse 1: the last emperor]
shots from the ruggedest clique
(yeah, y’all) man, ain’t n-body f-cking with this
set free, how we moving ‘em back? is we
using the track, gats, or aluminum bats? (come on)
yeah, cousin, i ain’t mad at you
but i’m mad at dudes. plus, i got a attitude
man, you see the way we act
he’s the quarterback. i’m running on this track
nah, take that back (uh). i’m a maniac (uh)
here to rearrange these raps and bang these cats (uh)
you want to bang with these hammers? let’s go
you want to bang with this grammar? let’s go
but you don’t want the handheld joint to explode (why?)
‘cause i’ma blow a hole like the uss cole
i’ll play my role, put out these dope vocals
hip hop’s my job—this time, i’ll go postal
they started the war. now they want peace?
because they see the emperor’s fury unleashed? this is
hardcore hip hop—ain’t nothing soft
motherf-cker, here’s where the gloves come off on y’all
fake–ss producers. your shit ain’t been knocking
for years. and you want to front on my project?
and y’all rappers that claim to be conscious
walking around, talking that nonsense
you just as scared to walk through the hood
as the ignorant rapper is to pick up a book
in the time that it took to give me those looks
you could have defended yourself from this hard right hook
called “the banger”
[hook: tiye phoenix and (the last emperor)]
(“the banger”) last emp got ‘em shook ‘cause he red-hot
tiye phoenix on your hook’ll make your head nod
(“the banger”) this banger is for real, so let it rock
they try to front up on the sk!lls—yo, they better not
(“the banger”) last emp got ‘em shook ‘cause he red-hot
tiye phoenix on your hook’ll make your head nod
(“the banger”) we kept banging underground ‘til they said, “stop”
now we’re putting bangers in the market, so let it rock
[interlude 1: the last emperor]
check it out
[verse 2: the last emperor]
i’ll bang heavily, i’ll bang strong
i’ll bang this on enemies that did me wrong
my apologies. i know it’s been too long
to the industry, this is my redemption song
i’m too strong. you can’t overpower these raps
from west philly to brooklyn to cali and back
i ran my game with no salary cap. when it
had to be fat, i brought the calories back ‘cause i’ll
bang for mine. i don’t dine on free meals
the man that you thought was a myth? oh, he’s real
three years and i’ve been through three deals
n-gg-, ask around about the emcees sk!lls
ask jimmy iovine, ask dr. dre, ask
those cats over at rawkus today, ask
the lyricist lounge, see what they all say about
the diabolical scientist mr. gray
i was ‘bout it then and about it today
no more alb-m delay—get that out of the way. you see
i’ve been doing this ever since the eighth grade—that’s
five thousand, eight hundred, and sixty-one days
twelve hours, about fifty-five minutes
and i’m still here. did you ever think i’d quit? i mean
the least you could do is entertain my clique
turn the volume up, n-gg-, bang my shit
[hook: tiye phoenix and (the last emperor)]
(“the banger”) last emp got ‘em shook ‘cause he red-hot
tiye phoenix on your hook’ll make your head nod
(“the banger”) this banger is for real, so let it rock
they try to front up on the sk!lls—yo, they better not
(“the banger”) last emp got ‘em shook ‘cause he red-hot
tiye phoenix on your hook’ll make your head nod
(“the banger”) we kept banging underground ‘til they said, “stop”
now we’re putting bangers in the market, so let it rock
[verse 3: the last emperor]
yeah, let my shit bang loudly
play it in the hood for dudes to act rowdy
see me in the streets? speak but don’t crowd me
i don’t need a clique. i’ll pack my shit proudly
out west, i guess n-gg-s’ll say, “howdy”
ladies say, “ciao,” like francesco rinaldi
had to quote it, baby girl. that’s alright. i’m
fully loaded and equipped to bang all night. she said
“you getting it started.” i’m begging your pardon (you)
you should be banging me instead of ricky martin
‘cause all they got to do is bring that big thing near me
i’ll introduce ‘em to the big bang theory
[hook: tiye phoenix and (the last emperor)]
(“the banger”) last emp got ‘em shook ‘cause he red-hot
tiye phoenix on your hook’ll make your head nod
(“the banger”) this banger is for real, so let it rock
they try to front up on the sk!lls—yo, they better not
(“the banger”) last emp got ‘em shook ‘cause he red-hot
tiye phoenix on your hook’ll make your head nod
(“the banger”) we kept banging underground ‘til they said, “stop”
now we’re putting bangers in the market, so let it rock
