Ghostface Killah - Box In Hand Lyrics






[Intro: sung]

Wu Tang will survive, no no no-no no no
Wu Tang will survive
Cause every time they flip a party
You know the party screams and shouts
Cause you... DAMN! Aw, TC that was the bomb...

[Ghostface]
Get all my peoples,get all my peoples headphones
All of em
Lay em a death warrant
Aaaah, yo, show it off, kid, show em, what, what
Let em have it, bust it, hey yo, hey yo

[Verse One: Raekwon]

Blend wine, who want to win mine
Shorty get a ten-round for floatin
With the richest, huh
Flexed out, Flinstone style
Your crimi-nal pen pal kidnapped Loud, jetted the
Mosyin, posin for them niggaz up in Poland
Rollin wax style museum, G 'em
Them richest niggaz bless this
Like Russian cut VVS's
Slide the hatchback, black were finessing this
Them niggaz over there know, Gazelle goggles
And them Lottos, 88 style, throwin' bottles (bottles)
Scenario rap, rap imperial, material (uh, yo yo, yo, yo)
Murderin' cats is like that real

[Verse Two: Ghostface]

Yo come do me somethin word to Michelob peep the Land Rov'
Sleeper hold club faggots lay your dome on a stove
It's like space kid, the whole world is pitch black, granola rap
Dough got smaller famous team, walked up in Photomat
Black down, numerous rounds, boots is brown
Getaway driver, this white bitch from out of town
We love horse races shakin Jakes and high-speed chases
Porno stations, drinkin violations, God relations
90 minute Maxell tapes, instrumental breaks
Bangin earaches, lay my verse down in two takes
The speaker pops, the Winchester rifle's in the kitchen
Murder the DJ's eyes twitchin, woofer hissin

[Interlude: Raekwon]

Yo, he's strong armin, manipulatin niggaz, scrapin niggaz
Takin play from niggaz, hate fakin niggaz, yo you hear me?
The whole shit's like wrestling
What you dare me? Back the fuck up kid, we flexin

[Verse Three: Method Man]

This rap shit bust yo' gums, and leave you stunned
Pull your plug, now you can't function
There's no to-tal or sum to this equa-tion, you fro-zen
Many may come but few are cho-sen
Pretty niggaz want to play the war po-sin
When the ruckus come, they be the first to get their shine stolen
Do or die, it be I, Meta-physical Man
Holding court from my Wu, indivisible clan
I see your thoughts and your hand reachin
It's getting deep in this mud
Cats heat seekin, for one blood
Nameless thugs with aimless slugs, shootin at these stank bitches
Less he gon' bring this above, I make switches
From the lamp I grant three wishes
Johnny be parlayin, I Blaze britches, then I roll
One hundred percent mind, one hundred percent body
One hundred percent soul, individual
Assholes tend to run
From this PLO extortion to the one
The next chamber, you fuckin with the star spangler
To the dawn's early light with this head-banger
Boogie, represent this shit fully
Like I'm constantly at war with the town bully
Who want that pressure, about to get smacked silly
Like a fat bitch in Spandex, free Willy!
We on some milli, check the joint, engine number nine
Niggaz wastin time worryin about me and mine
Get your own shit

    WU TANG IS THE GREATEST GROUP HANDSDOWN!

  44. B.... K....

    #WhatATimeToBeAlive 🔥🔥🔥 Damn the reminiscing got me sad af #ThisIsHipHop

  45. R.... C....

    Rza is a genius for this beat. All the different sounds coming in one time each, the piano sounds chaotic, and it all goes together.

  46. S.... -....

    Most underated Wu track, they all kill it. Damn, this track needed Capadona.

  47. N.... W....

    The opening beat ending still hurts my soul

    N.... W....

    EchelonNYK I feel u on that man that's how I felt shit was alrdy perfect then he flipped it n kept throwin these other creepy sounds but shit sounds genius ain't gon lie fr Rza is always unpredictable an absolute genius

    N.... W....

    thats how i feel about nas- talk of new york but it gets better here

    N.... W....

    yeah man, I always am waiting for the piano to come back in at the end of the meff verse. I know a guy that beat juggled the start during a battle on all rza tracks though. was really cool.

    N.... W....

    Bruh...that goes from being one of the hardest beats RZA ever made to being "okay"...when that switch occurs I get a sort of sinking feeling in my stomach so I know what you mean. I hate it when a beat switches up for the worst, or like the best beat on the album is an interlude or something smh. Another maddening beat for me is the beat on the intro for "it was written"...beat comes in at around 1:10 and gets used for nothing but background music if you want to check it out https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hn9C4rHCl8w

    N.... W....

    I got one more maddening unused beat for you lol..."Temples of Ice" from Jedi Minds Tricks: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=udGVbd4cp74

  48. D.... B....

    2:42 shit go stupid rza! fckng genius

    y.... A....

    Darude sandstorm I believe

    y.... A....

    @Captain.Crunch Thank you for reminding me that this joke was never funny to begin with I almost completely forgot

    y.... A....

    +y Action News @ 6, Ima sample Darude Sandstorm one day and make a dope beat, so that the joke will finally be on them.

    y.... A....

    @Bhristian sandstorm, hahaha.

    @OP. just go on one of them sample sites bro, you will find all of them. it's not exactly obscure, it's a platinum selling record. you will find them.

  60. k.... d....

    im hear cuz I heard the Force MDs was on this track. repsect

    k.... d....

    I been hearing this for years not knowing who TC is , "that was a bomb TC"

    k.... d....

    yeah the Force MDs and wu tang are from the same neighborhood in staten island. the Wu said they respect the Force for putting staten island on the map back in the 80s . lead singer TC died two years after appearing on this track he was already sick when they asked him to do it.

    k.... d....

    You're right

  61. M.... B....

    "Wu tang will survive .. And all u bitches in the Indus.." Who's singing the intro of the song?

    M.... B....

    @Mark Bee Blue Raspberry, it's from Release Yo Delf. She is on three songs on the purple tape as well...

    M.... B....

    +Mark Bee the Force MDs is doing the intro they mention the lead singers name T.C. who died two years after doing this intro

  62. p.... s....

    I heard RZA say that when he makes a beat for method man he makes it in a certain style which this is a perfect example for. funny because its on a gfk album

    p.... s....

    Actually, and I can't remember if it was from RZA's reddit question answer session or something else; but he said he takes into account every wu member's style and preferences when he makes beats for them...apparently he had a shitload of beats for each wu member but they were destroyed in a basement flooding

    p.... s....

    peter samuel says he makes them super aggressive, so Mef can play his Defense on it... Sick...

    p.... s....

    100% mind 100% body 100% soul...

    p.... s....

    it was originally supposed to be a meth beat. the beat was different to start with as well. if you look around you can find an older wu joint called "box in hand" and it's a meth track.

    I can't speak to the exact validity, but I always felt the same about this being a meth track, just on a ghost LP. If it was originally for meth that makes more sense.

    saying that though I can't see tonny really having a problem with this being a meth inspired beat on his long player. tony is cool.

    PS: I remember when I got 36 chambers back in like 92 or something when it dropped (I was about 13 years old, got it on tape) the methodman track was everyones favourite or protect ya neck. it was just those 2 tracks everyone was hyped about. I was into the GZA baseball theme and shit and the one he does with dirty earlier on. I think my favourite was lex though, always has been. (killa priest from extended, walter reid is a dop long player)
