Expanding Man Lyrics - Dilated Peoples

[Babu scratches] 

As I expand.... you 

[Iriscience] 

Ay yo amplify, magnify, broaden my reach 

Expand, exercise, ex-get increased 

The 'e' and the 'x' are connected like excellence 

The 'p' is for peoples that Dilated represents 

(Evidence: A-N for all night) PM to AM 

and D's for droppin rhymes with no delayin' 

Even numb from Novacane you feel the slow pain 

See flames but fuel the fire like propane 

(Evidence: now hold that) keep that lock and less beats 

War's not the word to play its like peace 

I'm a cyborg connected with a mic in my hand 

[Babu scratches] 

As I expand... you know I am..am.. 

A... triple optometrist mental megalopolis... 

A... student on these L.A. blocks... 

Raakaa Iriscience rapid fire how I transmit 

[Iriscience] 

Ay yo me and Omega, Devious Doze used to pose 

Hypothetical flows gettin' thrown with no foes 

A decade ago- introduced to Will Copper 

And out the other side of my fear- a field trooper 

Son of a preacher- in school a student teacher 

But I'd rather read or hit the theater for a double feature 

Bored night creature well I used to trade books 

When science appeared fellow scientists trade looks (y'all see that?) 

A brick by brick builder I learned to mix mortar 

Gettin' smarter and smarter from Homocide and Law and Order 

Street poet, mild man or reporter 

Til I flip like cool Kieth drippin' droppin' like water 

[Babu scratches Dilated lines] 

Raakaa Iriscience...create to devastate 

Why wait... put your gloves out 

Expand and dilate... 

As I expand you know who I am...Its the expanding man... 

A... triple optometrist mental megalopolis... 

A... student on these L.A. blocks... 

Iriscience...you know who I am...am 

[Iriscience] 

Now I haven't forgotten all the drugs that Bush brought in 

Its funny how its maybe his stash your son got in 

Man, Uncle Sam facilitated the plan 

Got weed dealed in miligrams and grams and kilograms 

(Evidence: Yo, word to our lye) they can heal a killa man 

They might have a plant they can if they got a pill to can 

Body upon young body into camps 

but camps turn to pen when boys to turn to men 

War bein' used to both profit and clense 

War spoke- why it camouflage the feds 

I'm a freedom fighter, reader, writer, rapper, and fan 

[Babu scratching] 

As I expand you know who I am... 

You know who he is 

As I expand you know who I am... 

The expanding man... 

As I expand you know who I am...am 

As I expand you know who I am... 

Its the expanding man
