but also this:
"And it weights a ton,
Riq g's muthafucka I'm a son of a gun,
talk sharp like a razor blade under the tongue,
black master of any trade under the sun,
clear my path and come get your captain hung,
tryin to breathe like Black'll collapse your lung,
...."

Black Thought on "Web"

Does the whole song count as an opening verse since there's no chorus?

I got a letter from the government, the other day ...

I got so much trouble on my mind, refuse to lose..

1989 the number, another summer (get down)
Sound of the funky drummer

Criminal minded, you've been blinded
Looking for a style like mine you can't find it

Many people tell me that my style is terrific
It is kinda different but let's get specific

"I am, the wrong nigga to cross and the first nigga to jam with that AK quatro siete over microphone in hand...."
