Relentless Lyrics - Erick Sermon

[Phone ringing, recording indistinct] 

[Erick Sermon] 

Yeah, all day yeah, uh 

Turn me up, uh-huh...it's serious 

Headphones turn me up 

{Recordings indistinct) 

This is somethin that you need to hear 

It's cool and capture 

I feel like Blondie caught in the rapture 

Rappers and those who try to offend me 

From false accusations they had heard from Wendy (Hello Erick) 

I'm in the game to play 

For those cats on the sideline callin me gay, huntin 

Don't be the broads cause niggaz 

Mad cause I'm baggin chicks that look as bad as Jigga's (tell 'em) 

And make seven figures, a rap icon 

I'm the one kid in the biz to keep your eyes on 

Me, Superman, I fell from the window 

If I fly high, then why drive a benzo 

In drive a 'lac, in drive a hummer 

In drive is something brand-new this summer (tell 'em) 

The operator, I got your number 

Don't act like I don't flow like water, call the plumber (uh-huh) 

Something tryna stop the E from gettin large 

I feel like the Beastie Boys in Sabotage 

In all five boroughs, I pissed on trees 

I'm a dog (arroo), ask Rockwilder please 

There's some fake cats, they talk behind me 

A few A&R's sayin they won't sign me (uh-huh) 

Cause they see my face and think I'm done 

Meanwhile, I'm the black Neo, yes the one (one) 

While they sign they brother or friend or they man 

That's supposed to blow, he's a no-show 

And that's why the game is shutdown 

Every major player that's in it, been changed around (tell 'em) 

But I'm still standin and got something to say 

The boy is still here like LL and Dre 

I sat down with Russell and Def Jam team 

I sat down with Suge and Jimmy Ivine 

I sat down with Sylvia, sat down with Tommy 

Sat down with Clive Davis and no favors 

I got booked at dark 

And this might be my last huh-rah 

I'ma rock now until tomorrow 

Some ask about EPMD's prognosis 

But it won't happen til P get focused 

I won't be compared to Nas or Jada 

But I'ma punish the game for it's foul behavior 

And y'all got it backwards 

Those ain't real MC's, those is actors 

Cast of Fear Factor (tell 'em) 

I agree with Missy 

No creativity in the game no more 

It's the same old bore 

A few people in the biz know what's happenin 

The fans don't know, they think I'm platinum 

Cause they hear the record gettin played 4,000 times on every station 

But at the same time hate...disc jockeys 

If I'm over, explain how I do it 

In 2001 I shut it down with "Music" (hmmm) 

If I'm whack, why in 2002, yes it's true, I made cats react (uh-huh) 

Source might not quote this here 

It might not be nothin but I wrote this here 

Like Eminem said, you want to be Erick Sermon (that's the truth) 

But you a generic version (let's go) 

Aight y'all, enough talk 

Welcome to Chilltown, New York
