You Never Knew - Domino Remix

Lyrics

(together) Hiero y'all...
 (A Plus)
 It's not a wrong thing
 to be addicted to the microphone like a heroin fiend
 I'll tell you one thing:
 You'll never catch me fronting
 As I proceed to give the people what they wanting
 (Opio) You're making some green...
 (A Plus) But not for drama or fashion
 I'm stacking cash until I can get Moms a mansion
 (Opio) All from rapping?
 (A Plus) Nah man there's many plans
 Like investing in land
 It started all from impressing the fans
 With brand new flows
 And you know
 All the way from gangsta clones to weirdos
 Fools used those
 But we ain't tripping
 Give respect when you see this
 You need us,
 or your raps underdevelop like a fetus
 (Pep Love)
 Those that know not doze
 And it shows
 When we broke out the knock
 Hos hopped out they clothes
 That's positive feedback
 Yep, The Prose
 I'm poised, we never pose, you'll never know
 >From '93 til infinity we've been inventive
 Creating the bump is our only incentive
 And it's been a long time since I feel I've been felt
 But the only thing I fear is fear itself
 So you know what we gots to do
 Maybe could we keep it within the crew
 Like it should be?
 Never givin' out
 We're livin' out our dreams
 If there's something I can't live without,
 That's my team
 You never knew...
 (Phesto)
 Hieroglyphics
 Hip-hop is vintage
 Underground like silos
 Launching long-range ballistics
 World-renowned, we ground-breaking
 Musical boundaries
 Runnin' circles around emcees
 (Del)
 Del -- been rhyming for more than a decade
 Onto the next stage, while emcees need aid
 Stay paid, I'm still grade-A
 None of that tomfoolery
 As you can see this shit ain't nothing new to me
 Utterly hovering over other things material
 You're stuck in the here and now
 Plus you're sweating profusely -- here's a towel
 Your fears are now reality
 When I take your dream states
 And elaborate on how your team's fake
 With phony IDs, but sometimes I feel like
 Only I see through the charade you've made
 In today, but hey, tomorrow it's played
 And then they got a new fool in your place to be okayed
 (Phesto)
 Hieroglyphics
 Hip-hop is vintage
 Invented in days back
 Rekindling in ways that many thought was lost
 In this contemporary maze of methods to floss
 We finding trees and trails to blaze
 Boundaries to cross
 We can be found beyond the bounds of reason
 Or earthbound, heatin' up the Coliseum
 (Opio)
 They rushed the stage full-throttle in Chicago
 Our brains interlocked
 Where fakin' emcees get caught with the 40-bottle
 Or get their chains snatched, pronto
 We unstoppable, droppin' flows in Toronto
 Maneuverin' through Vancouver and on to Japan
 where they put major grands in my hand
 Follow...
 (Phesto)
 Straight from the heart we set apart from the rest an'
 Our perfection on the microphone was predestined
 World-renowned, we ground-breaking
 Musical boundaries
 Runnin' circles around emcees
