the roots – i remain calm lyrics

[hook x4]
i remain calm
lyrically, i got the bomb
when you put me on, i remain calm

[verse 1: malik b.]
it’s the ‘i remain calm’, but for jerks that erk
come out my humble, go berzerk
and make you swallow your smirk
i splurge most and bash, capacities m-ss
i fascinate as i -ss-ssinate and show task
characters and egos get crushed in trust
and my words stampede like herds in the dusk
cream of all crops, topics i drop with trotter
when heated up, i gets hotter ’cause i’m proper
you never knew the levitude the clever few
different tax for revenue, man, if you ever knew
the tac-tic, strategies of word ca-pa-bil-ities, display, decease
the rhythm, and man, how it swerved and curved
made a n-gga’s dream but his hope deferred then stirred
dig the mentals, papermate, bic’s and no. 2 pencils
my credentials flow on instrumentals
i write an anthem, throw a tantrum and remain handsome
mysterious vibes like i was the phantom
erupt abruptly, then conduct, amaze
you’re f-cked when the lyrics get bucked because i graze
never animosity, on my property
n-ggas acropoly, or they feel extreme monstrosity
wreak and leak out the verbals, akhi, don’t forget it
the chief of edit, the malik’ll shred it, yeah, i said it!

[hook x4]

[verse 2: black thought]
that n-gga thought flows like a river, i deliver styles like domino’s
eyes closed, i inhale equality, follow me now, son
listen, my divisions advance, i surp-ss one half of the rap m-ss
the other half want my autograph
because i got soul, plus a ghetto stroll similar to shaft
it’s the mic rapers, splittin’ phillies in the cellar
my a capella verse can stomp, i delete comp
my rated-x larynx wrecks your context
i’m complex, confusin’, lyrically amusin’
i drink brews then when i’m groovin’, i’m no longer human
i’d like to take this time to give a shout to all the money makers
in the house galore, they help me turn it out
i whip the cap to the back, i’m laid back like your gramps
i make n-ggas embarr-ssed like they spendin’ food stamps
i take my time when i rhyme lovely, me, nah like ugly
like, god, we get odd to ill rhythms
rappers thinkin’ of steppin’ up, what the f-ck you doin?
i amplify the hymn to bring your empire to ruin
who’s your girl screwin’, fellas? jealous because i’m fly?
keep my sneakers dry when you cry-baby
see, i can have you headin’ for the border like a refugee from haiti
aiyyo, this brother drivin’ my cab tried to flip
sayin’, “pay me in advance” – i asked him if he ever danced
in the dark with the rap devil black thought
see, n-ggas who get caught off guard remain scarred into air
with headphones remainin’ on they domes, they hear
i resound and astound and scare
i reign terror into another n-gga rap era
my rhymes sedate, i lubricate like aloe vera
i’m extreme, restin’ in the land of the plot and the scheme
peace to bed, shedroch and the equal team

[hook x12]
