-RZA intro from "Airwaves"-
[King Tech] One two, one two We dedicate this one to the hip-hop culture y'all Brought to you by the WOOORRRLLD FAMOUS Wake Up Show
[RZA] Bobby Steels, Staple' tails, MC's get your lips stapled Project Killa Hill is stamped on the map like the compass Sacred sword play tongue twist piercin holes in you You can't escape seventy-thousand kilowatts blast through yo' box Walk wit alarm clocks, cars drivin slow down the block One stopped, parks, pops his trunk Snare pops loud as glock shots Bass like an M-80 in ya face, cops stop, give us citation We pause for radio station identification WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP! (Tech is on)
[Tech N9NE] When I Woke Up, I grabbed the mic and never choked up Busted a verse and all the G's in Cali loc'ed up when I was summoned Styles were mixed like the Drummonds Killer clown is comin lookin around your town is crumblin This Big Tech from the Midwest, leavin MC's litless On the Wake Up Show, make up no, stories about my shake-up flow Put me off in a cypher? Potna, you can't *fuck* wit the snyper Your flow's premature, clean your dirty diaper Mic heister, psycho alpha-schizo Hypno, chryo gat flow, guru and ain't nobody tighter Sway & Tech heard me flow and it's sealed Now I got Swedish women yellin "Tech N9NE svelte!"
[Eminem] This place is my house, I might as well erase my face wit white out Cuz y'all can't see me like Mase's eyebrows (where you at?) Climbed out of a nice house Through the front window and heard this guy shout "Hey that's my couch! (bitch!)" Pull a nine out during a rhyme bout While I'm rippin this shit, put a clip in it spit five rounds And murder you hoes worse than a convertible flippin verticle nose-first wit the top off landin up-side down You're tied down and duct-taped, fuck rape I'd rather just hump a slut's leg wit my nuts shaved And Sway & Tech, two disk jockeys Breakin so many friggin needles I wonder if they inject
[Xzibit] Lo and behold, better than platinum and gold Yes God bless success, never forsake your soul Xzibit take control, lock loaded and ready to roll Play the upper hand, a man that's never gon' fold Cuz your tape sucks, find a new hobby that you can take up Or listen to my niggas Tech & Sway so you can Wake Up The X-Man, catch me doin drills in the Danger Room Big game huntin from high noon till the full moon
[Pharoahe Monch] Wit synonyms, I get an adrenaline rush From minimum thrusts, bust multiple assaults in small interims As horrid as Boris Korloff was When I cut ya neck, leave a little piece of skin so the head won't fall off Hauled-off, sawed off shotgun blast He asked, why did he have to die like cast metal? O, huh, C now like Omar Credle We pone pedal at a high resolution On the Wake Up Show wit Sway, Tech and DJ Revolution
*DJ Revolution scratches*
[Kool G Rap] I sway the tec wit the Tech and Sway Step away, wet and spray, rep the day Who over debt to pay get swept away Across the whole board like checker play When I blaze your whole sect' arrays Wake Up Show for those who slept away Niggas that met the trey, hit the deck and pray DJ Revolution, spinnin like lead from out the head decay Tearin your neck away, flood up the street wit blood redecorate Until the head of jake investigate
[Jayo Felony] What, Sway can give it to but Whatcha Gon' Do wit it Tech can give it to you but Whatcha Gon' Do? Rev can give it to you but Whatcha Gon' Do wit it I can give it to you, Wha Wha Wha What What!
[Chino XL] Yo yo, Chino make the world go 'round Fuckin up entire record companies like Harrell did to Motown Vominous talk, poison pen, hominous walk Which flow will I destroy
