"Dilated" "Mind created minds" "Every word is heat" (Feel the impact) "Dilated expand" "Platform, Platform, Platform" (The remix) [Evidence] Yo (It's time to go) On a plane or don't Either way, the show must go on, and that I quote A cat like me, never knew how to backtrack I open up doors in fact.... I see guys and girls dancin, open up my flows at random There's no retreat, hold your beats for ransom No means no and that's my answer, I see in the dark wit my lantern Triple Optic, Iriscience, Evidence ready to rock it Of course Babu always in pocket *Babu cut* That's right, example of a show that's tight Showin you corny mothafuckers what hip hop's supposed to sound like Chorus [Iriscience] (Evidence) You wanna front WHAT? It's for the heads that know And if you don't, check the Platform and catch a live show You wanna front WHAT? We pro-game selected Family is family, world wide connected You wanna front WHAT? (On beats from the streets, step up party people, every word is heat) You wanna front WHAT? (We hit it right and exact, for my peoples in the middle, in the front, in the back) [Iriscience] Aiyyo Rakaa's my name, stealth like spy planes I defy fire armor, hit higher than migraines Nobody's sorry on what the state of the art be Clear the runway, I spread Wings like Paul McCartney You're now on static, I leave em nervous, in a panic I'm automatic, every word is cinematic I turn stages to ?leaders? and turn verses to scenes See with your ears, I'm turnin speakers into screens ?? Babu blast wit scratch tactics From my block to rap addicts on Fanatic I gotta hand it to the Green-Eyed Bandit Like Bam Rock the Planet, Dilated expand it Chorus *Evidence part first* [Iriscience] This for the ladies lookin forward to clubs these days And turntablists, radio, and club DJ's Rocksteady, Dilated create to devastate Nuttin to prove but then I never hesitate From Rob-One, Skate, Dream and Don D For all my people put to the test like Gandhi The Platform, takes respect to perfect the artform At times a battleground where rappers get their hearts torn [Evidence] Yo our album is nothin short of incredible I'm from a place called "You Know My Name" clearly legible Too many days gone by when I ain't feelin shit Not just talkin but doin it, still revealin it The Platform, blow trees like bees swarm Definitely different from the norm (uh-huh) You wanna front what? Our strategy, mix words wit alchemy Evidence, I won't get caught shot on the balcony Chorus "Dilated expand" *Cut by Babu 4x* (The Platform)
