Inspired by Mos Def's song, DO IT NOW featuring Busta Rhymes, M-80 thought he and Task 1ne, of the One Nation Army, could make a similar sound. 80 and Task tear up this beat that Aaron G wasn't too sure about, until he heard the lyrics laid on top. This is a high octane lyrical attack against the current state of hip-hop and the so called artists that inhabit it. To hear more from Task 1ne and One Nation Army visit: www.myspace.com/task1ne
lyrics
Speechless Feat. Task 1ne
V#1:(M-80):
1-All imitation artists all inarticulate, tongue-tied wannabe rhymers coming off incoherent.
2-Spittin lines wit no spirit sensational emotion, lacking lyrical devotion while we causing commotion.
3-The art of noise the war of the raw talented and counterfeit unbalanced shit and u cant challenge it.
4-And count on it my unspeakable enormity, its almost a given that u will give in to conformity.
5-Task one & M-80 the only actuality, and quality enriched with high fidelity.
6-My flow is embellishing no competition has equality, and they cant set the standard for this hip-hop economy.
7-So I am the monopoly no one is on top of me, imitations at best are executed sloppily.
8-While I execute em properly there aint no stopping me, regardless you cannot reach this u speechless.
Hook:(M-80): Yo Task 1ne.
(Task1ne): Yo Whats the deal.
(M-80): Let's make em feel it in their vanes.
(Task1ne):Ok
(M-80): Make these wack artists understand it in their brains.
(Task1ne): I feel the same tell these preschool rappers that its time for recess.
(M-80): You cannot reach this you speechless.
(Task1ne): Yo M-80!
(M-80): Whats good?
(Task1ne): Lets make em feel it in their brains, and turn these rappers into singers just like T-Pain.
(M-80): These entry level rappers cant compete with this.
(Task1ne): Yo Jesus you cannot reach this we're leaving all yall speechless.
V#2:(Task 1ne):
1-Task1ne and M-80 find me chiilin in the club with ten ladies, keep it hot everyday like we're in Haiti.
2-And you cant phase me the Sacramento elephant, I fucked around with mics so long I had to just go celibate.
3-Dont insult my intelligence or folks will find you while they've gone fishing with your arms missing beautiful like Sean Kingston.
4-And thats why we'll never work keeping you on red alert with a sound thats so electric that it mega hertz.
5-Tell the church we're going strait to heaven with these mics we're blessing, while robbing 7 eleven's without a weapon.
6-But now there's no question you rappers need to be taught a lesson if you need help with flows you can find me at the session.
7-Eating fast food with white Mexican or black dudes, in the city where cash rules we keep yall still like statues.
8-You say you spit that real shit you only spitting half truths, and now your crew's like D-12 cuz you no longer have Proof.
V#3:(M-80):
1-If u wordless you worthless a walking talking cliché, exactly what mass media wants you to portray.
2-Oh you fit the mold perfect where radio and music videos intersect no intellect.
3-Collect your check but pay the price to devil wit yo soul, and let em gain control.
4-Yo brain just froze u drained ya lobes, whatever the case your true self has been exposed.
(Task 1ne):
5-And you hoes know the deal we rock from Sacto to Rocklin, it gives us tumors cuz we always stay flossin.
6-Im tossing your mixtape around until that shit brakes, cuz its fake I told em that it was a mistake.
7-Your days are numbered like the count down, in surround sound, its Task and M-80 we got more bars than downtown.
8-You wack MC's Im just laughin at yall, so Ima hold sac down like I was grabbing my balls, Its Task 1ne!
