Eric B. & Rakim - Untouchables Lyrics
This is poetry in motionTry to catch on, stay close to the hostAnd mcs try to make the road rough but Im coastinLadies hear the rhymes rub em on like lotionHit spots soothin, cant stop movinGo ahead bust a sweat and you can bet Im still coolinWhen I detain its a brainstormNever the same form, every brain I rained on is warmTakin a trip through memory lane to melodySee if you could tell if these thoughts to fell mcsCould do you justice, but you cant touch thisSome kid just tried to bust this but he just missedIm universal and much more mercifulSo versatile with the style its reversableI get away even if I say a curse or twoFirst, let me bust another verse for youYour arms too short to box with ra so quitYou dont want no kind of conflictOr youll get stripped as the rhyme is rippedPick up the pieces now aint that peace yeah Im hipEverything I said flows since my introI plant a thought extend and then growHoldin my pen tightly it might beControversy at first when I write theChords of research dont just take it for grantedWhen Im gone my mind remains a planetIf I keep buildin, and teach the childrenSo when they read in between the lines its filled inI break to meditate, not a peep, concentrateTill Im deep awake, but not asleepAt the same time risin and advertisinWhat is true, keep advised and you can stay wiseAnd Im untouchableComin over the bridge take a peak at the skylineCause thats how I shine not only when I rhymeMy cultures makin me stronger, mentallyPhysically Im powerful poetry now that could beLabelled as art placed in a museumStylell make scenery, now you see emExhibit a knowledge thats packed and filled withNothin illiterate its facts I build withMy minds untouchable which means intangibleContents never dense its understandableI study life so I can live it the right wayNo time to hear what another brother might sayWhy sell a capsule of crack I dont have toI rhyme and sign million dollar contracts toPut message on records thats graced with hard bassSmugglin microphones, this aint scarfaceWhoever talked that talk, I wanna hawkAnd dont try to escape from new yorkCross a 110th street lookin for a problemIts hell up in harlem, watch ra solve emI hear the music clear as I get nearThe hundred and twenty fifth street apollo theaterTake a step back when I rap I step up to you...Im untouchablePut on my thinking cap pump the trackTest your reflex relax but in contactYou fold and lose control so hold your partner closerYoure supposed to keep your composureBut you hear the drum said go then it gets so hypeIts like nitro opponents get petroRemember the trademark left by the rThats never soft or smooth its comin off the hardestIn effect, you could die-tect the imposterTakin my props, rakim is still properIm a prophet, you cant stop it, when I drop itEverything I say, coincide with the topicThoughts bounce around till my skull is fracturedInside my brain its all manufacturedAs we go deeper its hard to findDont even think about it, cause you cant read my mindIts clear so therefore you need a ear or inclinedIn the mind with some kind of idea forThe style Im advertisin what is trueKeep advised that you stay wise and the mindIs untouchable
