Rakim - Euphoria Lyrics






[Intro: Rakim]
Yeah!
You know what this is.
N-Y-C!
The triumphant return... (Rakim Allah!)
Uh!
Yeah!
Uh-huh!
Yeah!
Uhh!

[Rakim:]
Remember being introduced to rappin' your first rhyme?
It's pivotal! - Like a fiends first high.
Hustlers first ride, - players first dime,
Unforgettable like the ladies first time.
The world been waitin' for euphoria
The true form with a sixth sense. - New nausea.
True talk to the tomb, so you forced me to go hard
Like the streets is the womb - and New York
Be the birth place of Hip-Hop. - Get it? It's the model!
Where swagger was born, we set trends to follow.
The home of the gods, the go-getters and my flow
Ain't a city been so prolific since Cairo.
Hiero-glyphic. - Graffiti paint of view
Slang languages, too, just naming a few.
Still claiming through that thing that you do
Til you famous and just love for the game and this bangers for you!

[Chorus: Cocoa Chanelle]
Euphoria... - Euphoria, natural high. (high!)
Feeling good off this Hip-Hop I supply. ('ply!)
Time goes by. (by!) - Still world wide (wide!)
Still top five rapping, dead or alive! ('live!) - Euphoria...

[Bridge: Rakim (Styles P)]
The world been waiting for euphoria... [scratches]
[Screwed] Euphoria! [scratches] (you wronged the shit!)
The world been waiting for euphoria... (salute!) [scratches]
Euphoria...

[Styles P:]
I love Hip-Hop to death! (I love it!)
Drop science like Rakim. - My thoughts manifest. (yeah!)
Yeah, I'm the Ghost but you can see me in the flesh (see me?!)
Created a father that he can see me through the test. (see me!)
It wasn't for rap, my life will probably be a mess (mess!)
Used to sell crack outside. (true!)
Had a bad attitude, used to scrap outside (true!)
But listen to that motherfucker rap outside! (yeah!)
You can hear me over the guns that clap outside (you been!)
True warrior raps my euphoria. (I love it!)
Only my mind can bring me this many stories up (only my minbd!)
No elevators! - No escalators! (uh-uh!)
Spit hard 'til death or respirators (spit hard!)
This is alpha-omega, nigga. - Get your data! (get your data!)
I transform when the mic' plugged in
Cause the feelings euphoric. - Cause I spit boric! (yes!)

[Chorus]

[Bridge: Rakim (Jadakiss)]
The world been waiting for euphoria... [scratches] (uh!)
[Screwed] Euphoria! [scratches] (uh-huh!)
The world been waiting for euphoria... [scratches] (HA-HAAAAAAAAHHH!)
Euphoria... (uh, yo!)

[Jadakiss:]
At the end of the day - what does it all amount to? (what?)
Verses too strong to be sold over the counter. (drugs!)
Industry is like a night club and I'm a bouncer (haha!)
I don't give a fuck about what you can sell and ounce for.
Nah! - That ain't the topic of discussion
It's the music, y'all niggas think it's knocking it's disgusting. (uh-huh!)
I just rather pull it out, cock it then bust him!
Feels like he plugged into a socket when you touch him! (hahhh!)
Ain't a thang for me! (nah!) - Pain then glory. (yeah!)
Temporary thug exchange the same story.
That's why I'm still militant. - Still killing it!
Soon as it enters the blood stream; start feelin' it. (uhh!)
Then it's all good long as you know what you dealin' with (uh-huh!)
Knowledge of the game that I got I'm concealin' it. (yup!)
I'm talking to all of y'all (all of y'all!) - put the.four-four to ya
Kiss is a warrior. (warrior!) - This is euphoria! What?!

[Chorus]

[Bridge: Rakim (Busta Rhymes)]
The world been waiting for euphoria... [scratches] (yeah!)
[Screwed] Euphoria! [scratches] (yeah, yeah, yeah!)
The world been waiting for euphoria... [scratches]
Euphoria... (ayo, ayo!)

[Busta Rhymes:]
It's like I'm dealin' with spirits and 'bout to send a ghost to get 'em
When they hear me spit I make them tremble like the dope was in 'em. (AHHHH!)
Going into convulsions from the size of the weed bag,
Victims is regular junkies, this celebrity rehab.
Respected by all of the godfathers and the new names
They got a love for my product insert it in their blue vein. (okay!)
They on my neck when I come around like a new chain
Niggas know my rep and the dosage when I bring the new flame. (ufff!)
Niggas all feeling the same effect, this shit is lethal,
Like they was shooting the same shit, using the same needle. (whooop!)
When I'm steady busting hollows I'm always ready to start this
You niggas is like? when I'm? the cartridge (ha!)
You can see how the drug impacted the street from the responses, (yeah!)
It saturate the planet was all apart of the process. (yeah!)
The shit we get we take it to another place, you can't ignore it!
To a higher stimulation, nigga, shit is so euphoric!

[Chorus]

[Bridge: Rakim]
The world been waiting for euphoria... [scratches] [beat fades out]
[Screwed] Euphoria! [scratches]
The world been waiting for euphoria... [scratches]
Euphoria...

    At the end of the day what does it   all amount to
    Verses too strong to be sold over the counter
    Industry is like a night club and I'm a bouncer
    I don't give a fuck about what you can sell and ounce for
    Nah, that ain't the topic of discussion
    It's the music ya'll niggas think it's knocking it's disgusting
    I rather just pull it out, cock it then bust it
    Feels like he plugged into a socket when you touch it
    Ain't a thang for me, pain then glory
    Temporary thug exchange the same story
    That's why I'm still militant, still killing it
    Soon as it enters the blood stream start feeling it
    Then it's all good long as you know what you dealing with
    Knowledge of the game that I got I'm concealing it
    I'm talking to all of ya'll put the four four to ya
    Kiss is a warrior, this is euphoria

    rakim slayed this! styles p, kiss, and busta were dope too

  29. t.... m....

    Joey won cocknobi take those lyrics back to your fairy tale story, rhyme scheme so basic it's as weak as a cancer patient. Or a bulimic bitch but believe this spit. I'll have your mind pacin once you start readin this. With enough mind capacity to lyrically slay you accurately, never been caught even thinkin bout somethin as wack as what you were speakin, what you said 2 years ago is how a 2 year old would flow. I hope my words help you understand better that rap is a game and you're no contender, and I couldn't of said it any better

  30. E.... ....

    Rakim The GOD!

  31. m.... ....

    Rakim, THE greatest to ever touch a mic.....bar none....

  35. x.... ....

    EN WHA SEE

  36. M.... ....

    RESPECT & SALUTE!!!

  37. j.... j....

    Rakim used to rap when Nas still watched cartoons LOL... I like both, actually... RAKIM LEGEND

  38. j.... s....

    i am True

  39. j.... s....

    my music hits you such as illict drugs, the passion of thugs, mean mugs and hollow slugs, dancein over taps in them traps, pushin the dice till we craps out, feans and red beams out, pop shots see flashy lights, front page and headlines but not from these hot lines, ghost push dubs and blaze dimes, who the fuck needs rack in they rymz

    j.... s....

    Nas calls Rakim, the greatest and #2 you would have to go back an era or two to compare the greatest what is your yard stick to measure greatness? hip hop didnt start in the 90's or the 2000's ....

  40. J.... M....

    Listen to the old rakim .....rakim is the reason nas is rapping but I respect your opinion

  41. I.... 3....

    *somehow

  42. I.... 3....

    Rakim is top 10 worthy while wayne isn't even a thought for a top 300 spot LMAO!

    I.... 3....

    IceMan 33 I put Rakim on my Top 5

    I.... 3....

    I respectfully disagree........Wayne is icon in the game RAKIM IS THE PROTOTYPE

    I.... 3....

    Wayne's the GOAT, I'm sorry but I can't agree with that

  43. I.... 3....

    LOL ah so you finally decided to use your jason accounts again huh? LOL what a tool you are. & nobody said anything about nas you bumbling fool, I'm talking about your unhealthy obsession with wack ass lil gayne. its funny how If I dislike wayne's music I'm a hater but that someone doesn't apply to you for disliking rakim. nas is the second coming of rakim idiot nuff said.

  44. I.... 3....

    nah you suck lil wayne off thats your only reason to still dabble in rap wack rap that is LOL

  45. b.... ....

    'The Seventh Seal' was 10 years out of date. Nas already did what Ra was trying to do with this album on 'Nastradamus' back in 99. And yes I know its far from Nas's best material but he still put out heat as far as lyrics are concerned, including the masterpiece verse on 'Last Words'. Nothing on Seventh Seal is on that level of creative genius.

  46. T.... R....

    THE *R* IS STILL THAT DUDE!!!!!!HANDS DOWN!!!!!

  47. A.... B....

    I'm a rakim fan but that seventh seal was ok

  48. m.... n....

    fucking nutz

  49. K.... ....

    Holy shittt!

  50. M.... L....

    my new fitness song

  51. P.... ....

    WTF ARE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU... SMOKIN'

  52. T.... B....

    they all spat fire on dis shit but i think jada really killed it

  53. j.... d....

    this shit bangs!!!!

  54. C.... ....

    THIS TRACK IS THE SHIT

  55. S.... ....

    RAKIM KILLED IT!!!!

  56. R.... Z....

    does someone have this instrumental?

  57. M.... J....

    Verses too strong to be sold over the counter .

  58. N.... ....

    Obviously his flow is better suited to the 90`s beats.Not saying he can`t keep up cause he kills this
    Still the God MC

  59. E.... ....

    @DRPR0CT0R I'm not trying to sound like a know it all or cocky when I say I know Hip-Hop. Oh and I'm only 18. I'm one of the lucky ones from this generation that actually knows Hip-Hop :) profoundly

  60. E.... ....

    @DRPR0CT0R Nas NEVER fell off are you serious? You need to step your Hip-Hop knowledge game up. Jay-Z is the definition of falling off, homie. Get your facts straight. Nas is the GREATEST lyricist of ALL-TIME, along with Rakim & Eminem. And before you hate on Em, listen to him from '96-'02 he was insane with his lyricism. Plus, no one touches Em on wordplay. I own EVERY legendary MC's albums EVER, so I know what I'm talking about. Study the music dude. The proof is in it.

  61. D.... M....

    the legend the greatest rakim

  62. G.... ....

    More like top 3 dead or alive, Rakim is a beast!

  63. 2.... ....

    @2pacolypse357 nas is oftn called the second coming of Rakim

  64. 2.... ....

    the fiend of hip-hop

  65. m.... s....

    time goes by still worldwide still top 5 reppin dead or alive
    Damn right Rakim is still top 5

  66. J.... ....

    u cant say any1 is the best MC bcoz evry one has a difrent definition of wot 'good' lyrics are and u cant compare difrent styles of rap

    J.... ....

    jacob3432

  67. D.... C....

    i didnt receive the bonus track 4 some reason.

  68. D.... S....

    This is the shit I grew up on - this is the shit that's missing in hip-hop - tight ass lyrics laced over a banging beat
