Rage, what does that word mean, Rage?
Outrageous, vindictive, conspicuous
All about it, got to have it
The big batty girl

You don't know what you in store for
Rough, rugged, and raw (raw, hardcore)
Rough, rugged, and raw (raw)

Ayo Robin', (wassup?) I feel like squabbin' (what?)
And if you wit' me (uh-huh) I know that you're mobbin' (c'mon)
It ain't no thing (uh-uh) it ain't no problem
(And if it was?) Mmh, I know that we could solve 'em

Yeah, rough (rugged and raw, rugged)
Rugged (rough, rugged and raw)
And hardcore (rough, rugged and raw)
Rugged (rough, rugged and raw, c'mon)

I kick shit off so tight (tight)
Kick rhymes, I kick real shit when I recite ('cite)
With poetry lethal as mo' brown
I got you hoppin' with a new sound
Dat Nigga Daz sho' nuff up to put it down
Who's the example? Who tried to come and make my fear?
MC's come around and kick the shit that's real
Know what I mean? Steamed, the pressurin' to the extreme
It ain't a dream, real shit from real MC's
I can't complain' or explain it, I run you over like a train
Bang and hang, box, rhyme, skate, then swang
It ain't a thing, cover-coated-artificial rappers
D-boys and MC's, what's happenin'?
Check it, tell me, nothin' could save ya
You better watch out 'cause nothin' could save ya (rough)
I blast you, lay you down, surround you with the hypnotical sound
The Lady of Rage and the Pound for life (raw)
I keep it underground, no matter where I'm from
I keep it real with a sound, you better watch it
For the battleground, for instance (rough)
I spray your whole Goddamn crew
Put you out of commission, fool listen (raw)
Wise up and pay attention and take heed
'Til you get driven into the floor
'Til you don't want no more, I can't stop repeatedly (rough)
You heard shots (pop, pop, pop) turn on the six o'clock news
And see who I popped, is it you? Or is it him?
Is it one of your parents? Is it your friend?

Rough, rugged and raw (hardcore)
Rough, rugged and raw, hah (hardcore)
Rough, rugged and raw (hardcore)
Rough, rugged and raw

Now check this
The key of the game is to be in the game (uh-huh)
It's all about the fortune (uh-huh), motherfuck the fame
It's not the same, I ain't tryna make me no names, hah
Live on stage, it's the Lady of Rage, I don't
Follow no fads (hey), the Lady of Rage is bad (uh)
Bad down to the marrow, keep your eyes on the sparrow
Pure, raw, rough, rugged and hardcore, Robin's on the soar (uh-huh)
The deadliest to take flight (flight)
The bomb rhyme condor, rhyme connoisseur in my castle
You don't want no hassle, you don't wanna battle (raw)
Skedaddle, be on your merry way ('cause what?)
'Cause on this very day you're going down like Mary J
Whip you like cream, it's the cream of the crop, the top-notch (rough)
To win the wars without TECs and Glocks, Rage rocks
Always and forever to the casket bruh, huh
All up in that ass 'til you had enough

'Cause she's the queen of the Hip-Hop game, you know her name
She sent me on a mission so I gots to handle things
I can't let her down, I gots to represent the Pound
With the hardcore rough rugged, for your nugget
You love it, you dug it
This shit on tape young nigga, so hurry up and dub it
Ayo Robin', (wassup?) I feel like squabbin' (what?)
So if you're wit' me (uh-huh) I know that you're mobbin' (c'mon)
It ain't no thing (uh-huh) it ain't no problem (uh, and if it was?)
Uh, you know that we could solve 'em

Now every time I step into a room, ka-boom
Here comes the heavyweight masher, in any shape form or fashion
Rip the roof off the mother, kick the frame out this fucker (hey)
'Cause Rage shit pops with extra butter
Hotter than the 4th of July, I tell you no lie
'Til the, uh, day I die I'll be fly, Robin' fly
Smack 'em the swiftness, witness this comin'
I'm wipin' suckers out so you can call me, ah, the cleanup woman
But I gots better things to do like makin' cheddar with my crew
Like shakin' and bakin' rookies like cookies and them veterans too
I got beaucoup flow, who you know that could go toe to toe?
I'm the heavyweight champ, hah, you'll get stamped
Send it, I'm hittin' hard enough to dent this, I'm relentless
I leave your whole camp tentless, so bow down in repentance
Or pay the price like Vincent, smack that ass like infants
Period, end of sentence, this is how I end this, hey
Uh, break it down
