Hardware lyrics

[Intro]
(Yo yo yo yo yo)
Do it right...

(That's what I'm talkin 'bout)
Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right (Right)

Aiyyo, do it right y'all
Here we go, check it out –

[Verse 1]
Subzero, cold from the Krush intro
The temperature alone shatter weatherproof window
We move at adrenaline rush tempo
And leave y'all rappers screamin' about
Who stepped on toes and cut ya throat
So what you can't f*ck wit' though?
You know it's me and that poetry to add injury to insult
When Thought begin
The what and the where
The why and the when
Will be explained
Music ease the pain, seize the brain
The flow's like sex in the rain
Hit 'em like they hit the projects wit the crane
Hit 'em like they hit the Black man wit the blame
Hit the people like I'm bustin a gauge with good aim
Tell 'em bang this dangerous masterpiece
It's not a game to he, pulsate through each vein
Stimulate the ghetto, that's the reason 'Riq came
It feel so surreal, it's hard to keep sane
Unplug me, seem like it's gon' get ugly
I come to operate, just shine the spotlight on me
Just make a little noise if the crowd love me
The way I do it make these other rappers sound funny
[Chorus]
Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right
(That's what I'm talkin 'bout...)

Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right

Do it right, y'all
Yo, do it right, y'all

[Verse 2]
Yo, it's like wassup?! Everybody wanna get nice
But everything come at a price
It's like everybody got they own vice, mine: weed and the mic
And women that I need in my life
Some strung out on religion and believing in Christ
Next man need the money, stay pullin' a heist
While this other one a fiend, stay huffin' the pipe
While this next one a fiend, stay f*ckin' ya wife
Try to give the youth advice, a guiding light
Young bols in the street getting high tonight
Young brothers upstate, hype, trying to fight
Real bitter 'cause they n*ggas ain't fly 'em kite
What I do is for them chain cigarette smoke heads wit' bad nerves
Old men in the barbershop using bad words
For people in the darkness, unseen and heard
For Hip-Hop!
Don't get the meaning slurred
My flow's disturbed
Presence is the most preferred
I descend upon Japan in a Boeing bird
Talk hustle, about 4 million served
Still swerve, directing y'all, life spills, word, just –
[Chorus]
Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right
(Pull out the hardware – yo...)

Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right

Do it right, y'all
Yo, let's do it right, y'all

[Verse 3]
Aiyyo, when the Fifth come thru, it's like "Amazing Grace"
Slow motion, like you hit some sh*t that may have been laced
Standoff at the door when I step in the place
It's like the law coming, tryna pepper spray in ya face
If you a weak n*gga, stay in ya place
My name 'Riq, when I speak, thoughts travel at alarming rates
Come on, stomp wit' The Roots
I step into the vocal booth, armed to the tooth
'Cause the people want truth
We all want clothing and food, and watered roots
So I stand up say what I say in front of you
Coming thru, feeling somethin' new, chill for a few
I know you probably wanna keep it real for ya crew
So pull out the hardware, do what you tryin' to do
So I can grab the mic and do what I'm dying to do
The turntablist Krush on the 1 and 2
And it ain't no need to tell you my name, you know 'Riq just–
[Chorus]
Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right

Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right

Do it right, y'all
Aiyyo – do it right, y'all

Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right

Pull out the hardware
Let's do it right
