1906

Emergency evacuation. This is not a drill
Please proceed calmly to the nearest exit
Please recaim calm, do not panic
Please proceed to the nearest exit, this is not a drill
I must repeat: this is not a drill

[Hook x2]
The flow is 1906
The live show is 1906
Yo, we 'bout to go 1906
Yeah boy, that's how hype we gon' get c'mon!

[Verse 1]
This is not a test; this is a live satellite world wide address
This is a formal declaration of a state of emergency that's beginnin' the minute I get the vinyl pressed
Yes yes y'all, the airwaves is overloaded with the stress calls
One man got the people in a panic 'cos he treatin' the planet like his own personal stress ball
My apologies, guess I'm just large, fuck stars; my records is measured in seismology
Check the meter yo the needle is kickin'
Best bet for survival is the fetal position
This is Stetsasonic, tectonic, volanic hot
Afrika Bambaataa bitch make the planet rock
Get the granite hot, insert verses
Mash it all up, remix the Earth's surface
Skyline crackin' and sinkin'
Watch your whole block disappear fast as you blinkin'
You poor saps ass backwards thinkin'
That y'all ain't on the brink of a mass rapper extiction
Rumblin' sound from under the ground
Then all of the pretty buildin's come tumblin' down
People wanna make a run for it, wonderin' how?
Too late, Richie Cunning's in town
What's shaking?

[Hook]
The flow is 1906
The live show is 1906
Yo, we 'bout to go 1906
Yeah boy, that's how hype we gon' get c'mon!
The jam is 1906
Like god damn it's 1906
Yo, we 'bout to go 1906
Burn it all down, tonight we don't quit, listen!

[Verse 2]
Somethin' wrong, all the birds start flyin' south
Funny odour in the wind blowin' by your house
Before you know it yo, the ground start turnin'
And the city start burnin' and they can't put the fire out
Get down like you landin' a plane
This is a titanic calamity that can't be contained
All your huffin' and puffin' is only fannin' the flames
The flow hard, shit'll damage your brain, get stupid!
I ain't done yet, black smoke, don't choke, I am ??
Fire that's high enough to light up the sky
Got midnight lookin' more like a Hawaiian sunset
Shaterrin' glass, scaterrin' ash
Blow the roof off the booth, yo we havin' a blast
This is Richie Richter 1906
So y'all rock parties? Son I crack 'em in half
It go one alarm, two alarm, three and to the four
Watch while the hot lava eatin' through the floor
Mic check is life or death critical
Fire and brimstone, let's get biblical
Rapper's still ignoring the facts
So every track I record it come with a warning attached
It says "I burn this whole city orange and black
Just to match when I'm sportin' my hat, '06 ma'fucker!"
