Wu-Tang Clan-For Heaven's Sake

Wu-Tang Clan "For Heaven's Sake"
1997 Wu-Tang Forever [Lyrics}

[Intro: Inspectah Deck]

Yo, one two one two
Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang
It's the Wu, creepin in the shadows
Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang
(Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang)
Oh baby, for heavens sake
Sir I, Excalibur
Oh baby, for heavens sake
(Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang) [2X]
Oh baby, for heavens sake

[Verse One: Inspectah Deck/Rebel INS]

Yo, aiyyo my rap style swing like Willie Mays
My eyes Purple Haze, my solar razor burn through shades
My grenades raid the airwaves, catch this rap page
I glide like, hovercrafts on the Everglades
Boom master, with the faster blade, track slasher
Manufacture poems to microphones, bones fracture
Limited edition composition spark friction
non-fiction, the calm bomb keep your arm distant
Zero tolerance, dominant intelligence
Wu original, true colors step from the melanin
The most high, most try, to get close by
and overthrow I, but choke, with they hopes up high
I circulate the tri-state and vibrate beyond the Richter
Flies sense to flock when they spot this live nigga
The crowd seducer black your third eye before I lose ya
Verbal high I leave stars in the eyes of Medusa
Top ten, parley like Cochran, it's often
narrow margin, of your odds to dodge the marksman
Murder rap, kill you soft like Roberta Flack
Words attack like a british bulldog, observe the stacks

Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang
Oh baby, for heavens sake
[repeat both lines 4X]

[Verse Two: Masta Killa]

Now all pay tribute to this entity
A spark that surges through the undergrowth
overwhelmin the populace from the entry
The Wu-Tang Dynasty, has emerged
from this elite fleet
I was appointed to strike the vital nerve
Mouths tend to utter and speak empty words
Observe the magnetic attraction as we breathe
Seeds of MC's at these fake ass industry niggaz
feed off, the chrome mic tend to squeeze off
and spray, an array of shots
that travel downwind, just respect pyrhiffic pen
as I send, the minds of the weak
To rise and take power I blew tower-ing over the land
as we stand, expanding our CREAM
A dollar to every grain of sand
Let the mind use the physical as planned

Oh baby, for heavens sake
Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang
Oh baby, for heavens sake

[Verse Three: Cappadonna]

Yo, yo, this is Beirut
Try to comprehend check out my new suit
Gods blend aim take fire pure destruction
Dissapear from here, my year, drop the stupid LP's everywhere
Fallin out the sky tall sniper
Raps by Cappadonna hit the countryside
Poetry whirlpool, RZA and True collide
We produce article exception to the rule
We the black men that struck oil, the hardboiled
Cats that made that Watergate thing go spoiled
The heavy-handed, locked down stranged with Cyrus
Wu Pirates, sneak inside the club, low eyes
Low down dirty, twelve thirty, night time crawlers
Off-the-wallers, basketball gun brawlers
Smoked out throw both fists for nine-seven
Slang reverand, put the best work in

Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang, Wu, Tang
Oh baby, for heavens sake
[repeat both 4X]

RZA created, by far, the most terrifying piece of music I've ever heard. The chorus is so demented it's chilling. These newbie producers need to take notes on how to use the 'froggy' voice. Genius.

[supersac2003]

Listen to all of Deck's verses on 36 Chambers again. He goes harder than anybody on that CD. He kills it.

Inspectah deck with that 1st verse, may b the sickest shit I've evr heard! WUTANG FOREVER

[BiggieAls4]

@NationalOrder

I agree with you 100%. The beat itself is what's chilling not the lyrical content. It's very omnious with it's dirty drums and bass line and the piano sample to begin with but the distorted voice is what's unsettling. Normally the chipmunk voice makes a song sillier, but the way it was used here with its lyrics is truly chilling. It's hard to put to words but this beat just feels extremely dark.

[QBez1]

Ooh Babay! First niggaz to eva Use the Chipmunk Voice ina beat

[BugsGameTipps]

Im the 1000th Like :D

[TheWaynelds]

Anyone know where the samples are from?

[NationalOrder]

@BiggieAls4 I love this song, it's amazing, but "terrifying"? How so? Interesting interpretation though - it just goes to show how a song is one thing to one person while something else entirely to another. I'd be interested to hear how you found it to be frightening, and if it was meant to be. Personally, I just find it to be really catchy, intelligent, well written and hardcore without resorting to loads of swearing.

@BiggieAls4  - It's Dr. Seuss with a raspy voice - don't kid yourself (pardon the pun) hahah I'm one witty muthafucka huh? In your face, BITCH!
