The Siliconian Intro
01:28
|
|||
I’d like to welcome y’all to the Siliconian – Don’t know already, I’mma give you the skinny then
Cal Poly SLO was where The V started rapping – Jon?Doe showed me how to get the crowd clapping
Fast forward to today I still get It lit - Burnin’ up the spot real swift like a spliff
Hands go up cuz I’m known to catch wreck – superb with the lingo – stacks on deck
Been rappin’ since the 90’s - the booth is where you find me
Mic check – 1-2 – I’m never getting’ stymied
Grinding on the days when I’m not teachin’ math
There’s gold in these verses – 20 karat paragraphs….

Laser Focused
02:23
|
|||
I give 100% percent of my concentration to align my thoughts and emotions
That’s how I do my thing – I bring ideas to life with my pen’s ink – boastin’
Burn the spot like a magnifying glass with class – never brash – and always off the richter
Sign my signature for the fans – understand that the spoils always go to the victor
The V spits spectacular vernacular veritably with my mental faculty
Proud to be a rap tactician practically crafting this lyrical masterpiece
Got the strength at varied wavelengths of wizardrous words secured at a great length
That means everything’s in tune. Harmonically, I skate breaks at high stakes. Yeah.
Up the ante and you’ll see I shine, droppin’ dimes like Method Man in his prime
I get with the times with all my rhymes so I’m never played out or fallin’ behind
I drop bombs on beats from Sean Divine with fly designs
Like a fractal - infinitely complex - I burn tracks ‘with my lines - sublime
My lyrics are so laser focused. No hocus pocus, V is the dopest
Pure light amplified by the stimulated emission of radiation
You can quote this cuz I’mma soldier with high energy like particle physics
Kickin’ ballistics – spittin’ projectiles with stylistic characteristics
Best believe I capitalize on opportunities comin’ my way
So don’t underestimate my ability to stack up major paps
I get the job done effectively with perseverance and passion mein’
Check my profile – under my photo – “Over The Top” is the caption mein’
Check my rhymes and you’ll find each line is designed as a hip-hop quotable
Even though I’m fly, I got to let you know that The V is never unapproachable
My status is beyond average, I’m workin’ on raisin’ the stakes - De La Soul
Makin’ you high as can be when I paint pictures of life – Picasso
Even so sometimes I get intense - Mike Singletary on the gridiron –
And I heat up the spot like firewood burnin’ in an andiron
I boom bap the competition like KRS-One with C4 explosions
Between me and other MC’s I’m the real ruler like samurais to shoguns
My lyrics are so laser focused. No hocus pocus, V is the dopest
Pure light amplified by the stimulated emission of radiation
You can quote this cuz I’mma soldier with high energy like particle physics
Kickin’ ballistics – spittin’ projectiles with stylistic characteristics

Unanimous Selection
04:28
|
|||
My raps are flawless
Keep it hot and spicy like Grey Poupon is
So don’t accept anything less than perfection
Like carbonated soda effervescin’ in your section
From the West and upscale just like the Westin
Keep all of the ladies nice and cozy - no exception
Never rock a Jesus piece but still The V is bless-ed
Haters bite my style…but end up with indigestion
They need Pepto Bismol to cope with my flavor
Feed my fans facts - that’s what they hope from the savior
With potent behavior like Las Vegas Raiders
I’ve come to drop bombs and raise you up like escalators
High-steppin’, reppin’ - It’s the Mr. Don’t Play
I got a b-boy stance I learned from peeps in San Jose
So advanced…like artificial intelligence
While any stance you take makes you Mr. Irrelevent
I’m at the top of my game and it ain’t no thing
Slang raps like work and I got that swing
Been around for a minute – not the newbie in town
Unanimous selection – number #1 – hands down
It’s a privilege to rock shows for my fans
I bring real talk so check out the V’s brand
If there was a rap draft…you know where I’d be found?
Unanimous selection – number #1 – hands down
So fly like Jon?Doe
I’m Kool Keith – livin’ large and Astro
Reachin’ new Pacific Heights like Pep Love
French Montana protégé – I’m all the way up
Out in Vegas, I’m a VIP stud!
Got chips, honeydips, cheddar & lettuce
So pump this up ‘til the volume reaches 10
Pullin’ honeys with cornrolls – Bo Derek 10’s
With my heads in the clouds like I’m scalin’ Everest
Which means I’m ballin’ from here to Nepal
Like Kathmandu I can smack up fools
And do anything Superman can do
I’m just playin’…but I still speak the truth
I got muscle in my hustle and I’m smooth like Bill Russell
The below the rim pro who used to throw down dunks
I take the MVP trophy and lift it up!
I’m at the top of my game and it ain’t no thing
Slang raps like work and I got that swing
Been around for a minute – not the newbie in town
Unanimous selection – number #1 – hands down
It’s a privilege to rock shows for my fans
I bring real talk so check out the V’s brand
If there was a rap draft…you know where I’d be found?
Unanimous selection – number #1 – hands down
That’s right! Whoahh!
Just like T.I.P., put my hustle over all
I put the upper in echelon – ball ‘til I fall
Don’t have much fame, still I’m known in the halls
Of underground rap in Northern Cali – South Bay –
San Jose – Yet everywhere I go, I parle’
Parkay with the swag – strictly butter-tight bars
I’m livin’ large and in charge like a Hollywood star
I keep flossin’ ‘til I finish, grind ‘til I shine
Haters hear my bars and then they all fall in line
Like I’m Sarge, big boss, Rick Ross & Slim Thug
Got game that says, “Let me have your attention!”
Salute to Scrilla V – commander in chief –
You hear my slaps, see me rap and it’s beyond your belief
You can’t compete with me so you’re simply a good sport
Good lord – good grief – I raise the roof and shake the floor
I’m at the top of my game and it ain’t no thing
Slang raps like work and I got that swing
Been around for a minute – not the newbie in town
Unanimous selection – number #1 – hands down
It’s a privilege to rock shows for my fans
I bring real talk so check out the V’s brand
If there was a rap draft…you know where I’d be found?
Unanimous selection – number #1 – hands down
I hustle real hard
I hustle for the fam
I hustle for my friends
And I hustle for my fans
You know I do it for the city
Yeah, I do it for the land
I do it for the soil
That’s Scrilla V’s brand

Where I'm From
01:30
|
|||
I’m from the city in the Bay Area where it’s simply all good.
San Jose – I parle – just like a true rapper should
Big bet is The V is the man about town – Cali certified
No clown – I’m smoothest with the sound
No marks on my team – I’m a suburb resident
Minutes from downtown, let’s have another round
Round here, I got fam and it’s always one love
On the grind – stay shinin’ startin’ from the sun up

SJ All Day
03:15
|
|||
I come from a special place
San Jose’s in the house on this one
You don’t know about my city?
Well just sit back, relax and listen in
To me it’s the jewel of the Silicon Valley
Of the Bay Area and Northern Cali
Even Southern Cali can’t mess with our shine
Cuz it’s SJ all day – every day – big smile
Chicago – They wish they could be
San Diego – They wish they could be
Seattle – They wish they could be
Colorado – They wish they could be SJ
Welcome to San Jose, the home of the Sharks
Barracuda & Giants – we knock it out the park
Big names entertain in the SAP Center
Then head to South 1st for an all-night bender
Need a place to stay? Then, check out the Fairmont
Up-scale, downtown, no place for marks
Next stop is the San Pedro Square after dark
If you’re single then mingle with ladies on a lark
How I get around? There’s multiple ways
Blue Ice on 85/87 highways
280/101 to the SF beat
880/17 to Oaktown or the beach
I roam the city streets through Blossom Valley
From Capitol to Almaden Expressway
Always hoop it up at Paul Moore on Cherry
Last week got a triple double – God blesses me
To me it’s the jewel of the Silicon Valley
Of the Bay Area and Northern Cali
Even Southern Cali can’t mess with our shine
Cuz it’s SJ all day – every day – big smile
Atlanta – They wish they could be
The Carolinas – They wish they could be
Philadelphia – They wish they could be
Minnesota – They wish they could be SJ
Need to get your hustle on? See Bay 101
Or Casino M8trix for a party that’s bomb
Eat a Franks Fiasco at Giorgio’s
Yes, everywhere I go I get my grub on, Yo!
SJ is the place where the weather’s lovely
In the summer in the 80’s or 90’s
Even if it’s hot I get a coffee at Moonbeans
Check out Oakridge mall for a Century movie
Out here we got Cisco & Ebay
Paypal, Intel or even Adobe
SJ represent – let’s celebrate life
San Jose State grad from Gunderson High
Pizza afficionado – Yeah, I like…
Round Table to Pappa G’s to Hi-Five
And yeah we got ladies of every persuasion
So think about us for your next vacation
To me it’s the jewel of the Silicon Valley
Of the Bay Area and Northern Cali
Even Southern Cali can’t mess with our shine
Cuz it’s SJ all day – every day – big smile
Houston – They wish they could be
New Jersey – They wish they could be
Miami – They wish they could be
New York City – They wish they could be SJ
That’s right, SJ. SJ’s in the house on this one.
Wooh! That’s what I’m talking about right there.
You can’t beat my city man.
Can’t be it? You gotta get with it.
Booya….

The Siliconian
02:50
|

It’s the Siliconian – technically sound
Amaze and astound like I’m hall-of-fame bound
Like Paul Bunyan, I’m larger than life
Silicon Valley represent, I’m the prototype
It’s the Siliconian – live in the flesh
Done gigs all around so that I feel that I’m blessed
South Bay Hustlin’ – Northern Cali livin’
Just like Tupac, The V gets around
The V puts in work with wicked word wizardry
Scintillating sounds like a 4-part symphony
Lyrically lethal lectures pure with symmetry
Diametrically opposed to wack MC’s flows – so
I go to the max at a minimum I mesmerize
The way I kick facts I keep hip hop heads surprised
Cuz I go to battle with the force of a Jedi knight
You bet your life – it’s YOLO – on the solo tip I’m fly
Frequently firin’ off flows with high frequency
So measure up the hertz - it hurts so good – there’s no beating me
Believe me – I got game that’s unbelievable
So tap out now – I’m tip top with this hip hop
Rip shop – fluid like some peppermint schnapps, Hops
Refreshing how I’m top notch – get ready for the bomb drop
Explosively energetic cuz I’ve earned my stripes - hype
Verses – do abound throwin’ strikes like Nolan Ryan. Right?
It’s the Siliconian – technically sound
Amaze and astound like I’m hall-of-fame bound
Like Paul Bunyan, I’m larger than life
Silicon Valley represent, I’m the prototype
It’s the Siliconian – live in the flesh
Done gigs all around so that I feel that I’m blessed
South Bay Hustlin’ – Northern Cali livin’
Just like Tupac, The V gets around
I tear up the track like a runaway freight train
Take aim – let it rain – take that – skate mein
On to the next one – strong when I’m flexin’
Blowin’ up the spot - always got the bomb sessions
Like Dr Greenthumb when he’s bong rippin’
Gone git high, - I be SoCo sippin’
Flippin’ and dippin’ – never ever slippin’
Get your subscription of my fly writtens
Add that there to an Adamack Beatz
And you’ll be setup to jam all week
Champion sound with a San Jose touch
Listenin’ to Rush? Nah, Double Dutch Bus
Love the way that this beat is bass heavy
Venues drop confetti when the V rocks steady
V is for vicious like Sid – clock riches
Leavin’ broke MC’s out of commission. No wishin’.
It’s the Siliconian – technically sound
Amaze and astound like I’m hall-of-fame bound
Like Paul Bunyan, I’m larger than life
Silicon Valley represent, I’m the prototype
It’s the Siliconian – live in the flesh
Done gigs all around so that I feel that I’m blessed
South Bay Hustlin’ – Northern Cali livin’
Just like Tupac, The V gets around
I sign my name with a capital V
And end with a flourish – that’s who I be
It’s my John Hancock, flavor like ham hocks
Keep my hand cocked in case a hater starts to trip
Like a Cyclops, I’m a beast on the mic
Stayin’ in the Bay got me feelin’ alright
Logically-based like a semiconductor
With complex structure and style - melted butter

I Take Care Of Biz
04:12
|
|||
I take care of biz!
Business – bidness, biznazz, biz
I take care of biz!
Business – bidness, biznazz, biz
This right here? I’m givin’ you the bus-i-ness
This right here? My prospects are unlimited
This right here? I’m flexin’ with the fit-n-ess
This right here? Why my dollars come with dividends
Got the blueprint for success
My cashflow comes in excess
Years of experience under my belt
Top-shelf. Keep increasing my wealth
The intrepid, intellectual – never ignorant for shiz
Lee Iacocca-like chief executive in biz
Handle mine meticulous – character magnanimous
Keep you guessin’ like Myxlplyx with this twisted spit
Grand like a Gorgon – never losin’ my head
Feel the wrath of this Titan – if you’re jackin’ for bread
I keep slices of sourdough always tucked away
For emergencies, investments, and a rainy day
What I’m tryin’ to say is I always stay ready
Keep my collars pressed and my cash flow steady
I select syllables with scintillating structure
Smooth on the mic like a hall of fame inductor
I ain’t Mean Joe, but I get that green
Steeler supporter in SJ – I rep that scene
And won’t tank like Acetylene – upstanding pedigree
Like Rockefeller – expanding to philanthropy
This right here? I’m givin’ you the bus-i-ness
This right here? My prospects are unlimited
This right here? I’m flexin’ with the fit-n-ess
This right here? Why my dollars come with dividends
Got the blueprint for success
My cashflow comes in excess
Years of experience under my belt
Top-shelf. Keep increasing my wealth
When it comes to doin’ business – V is not a simpleton
Haters get mad cuz their mental is so limited
I don’t sweat the small stuff. I ain’t got time.
Like the Wolf of Wall Street – still in his prime
Like Leo DiCaprio I started from scratch
Still ain’t met the comp who can be my match
You can bet on the bank I can raise big bank
Survive a shark tank and never sink like a thinktank
Makin’ dough like venture capital
I never mess with crypto cuz it’s too volatile
So I won’t lose my shirt
I’m way too clean to be doing any dirt
From Silicon Valley to Research Triangle
V can work it from any angle
Got a degree in Finance and drop science
So do the math as I augment my stacks
This right here? I’m givin’ you the bus-i-ness
This right here? My prospects are unlimited
This right here? I’m flexin’ with the fit-n-ess
This right here? Why my dollars come with dividends
Got the blueprint for success
My cashflow comes in excess
Years of experience under my belt
Top-shelf. Keep increasing my wealth
You feel me. That’s the strength of my character
Reach so long like Hands Across America
I can get it in cuz the V is outlandish
Rock shock jock like I’m straight out of Kansas
Some try to handle this but that’s ludicrous
So I make sure my tracks are never wack
I can pump it louder than the Black Eyed Peas
Like Lupe Fiasco I stack my cheese
And handle any situation properly
I got smarts. I’m intellectual property
My style is patented and my flows tight
With the might I should apply for a copyright
But if you’re deviant I’ll sue you for infringement
Everything I say is what’s said so I meant it
Always on the real side, but I must warn ya’
I’m out on the chill side of Northern California
So don’t front on the Silicon Hustler
I’m no busta or wack-rhyme constructor
This right here? I’m givin’ you the bus-i-ness
This right here? My prospects are unlimited
This right here? I’m flexin’ with the fit-n-ess
This right here? Why my dollars come with dividends
Got the blueprint for success
My cashflow comes in excess
Years of experience under my belt
Top-shelf. Keep increasing my wealth
This right here? I’m givin’ you the bus-i-ness
This right here? My prospects are unlimited
This right here? I’m flexin’ with the fit-n-ess
This right here? Why my dollars come with dividends
Got the blueprint for success
My cashflow comes in excess
Years of experience under my belt
Top-shelf. Keep increasing my wealth

01:30
|

Gimme that beat fool, It’s like a full-time jack move.
Nah, it’s all good. I still make the track move.
Word to Ice Cube for the rhymes right there.
I’m the coolest – fresh to death just like the night air
I got beats for days so there ain’t no stoppin’
More albums to go before I’m in a coffin
So I live in the present and I keep the faith
There ain’t no time to waste in this time and space

Beat Steady Knockin
03:46
|
|||
Ladies & Gentleman in the place to be
I got a potent dose of dope like Rodney-O and them, G.
Cuz I’m cold rockin’ beats that be steady knock, knockin’
Like Gorilla Zoe got the whole club rockin’
Pump Guerilla funk like Paris - not the city
Countin’ 50’s in bucket seats – sittin’ awful pretty
Haters lookin’ at Scrilla V quizzically
Thinkin’ this dude trippin’. I’m hittin’ hard like BTP
Over Hustle House beats, I hustle hard in these streets
Nah, I’m posted in the burbs, yet still I bring the heat
Like Space X rockets, all about profits
You’ve come to discuss bizness – Now you’re talkin’
Make room cuz I got beats that boom
Just like the ‘Liks, I can get blitzed and make you move
Smooth…delivery with the chivalry
I’m ill in this piece. I go hard in the paint
Over fly instrumentals with monumental bass
Top gun, V status never ever average
I won’t break you off, yeah you get the whole package
Savage saber-toothed tiger – westside rider
Southside livin’ – northern cali product spittin’
Venom like Eminem – but The V’s no rap god
I leave it up to him – I be chillin’ in the backstop
C’mon everybody it’s about that time
It’s primetime when I slay the beat everytime
Time after time if you look you’ll find me
With tight sublime rhymes that’s The V’s philosophy
Like BDP I am an MC 2
I over the 1’s and 2’s I got game like Spike Lee
Exciting like Hieroglyphic beats
I beat up the beat watchin’ flicks like Beat Street
I go back like Jack Kerouac on his beat
But I was born in 72 to be exact
Like the Godfather flick– I’mma box-office hit
When I spit sometimes it’s totally random
But never too much for my family to fathom
Like 20,000 leagues under the sea
I go deeper than a Nautilus submarine
Now that’s heavy…yeah, make the club rock steady
Foes flows are weak leaks while V breaks the levee
I got this here for all y’all to hear
So no need to search I got it lit right here
Light years I’m ahead of the competition
Even when I take it back for you to listen
You want a sweet beat? Check this rendition

Shorty, bounce to the rhythm of this new orleans sound
I amaze and astound for all crews all around
I’m slangin’ out lyrics like bricks by the pound
If you ask where this song’s goin’ next…it’s goin’ down
Bomb, ditty bomb! Break your neck to this song
That’s word to busta rhymes, I’m smokin’ tracks like a bong
With no tracks in my arm, I’m certified dope
And Cali qualified, so vote for the hope
Boom shockalocka! Shalocklock boom!
Jump around the club like a House of Pain groove
What we want y’all to do is bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
Bounce, c’mon, Bounce, c’mon.
What we want y’all to do is bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
Bounce, c’mon, Bounce, c’mon.

Not too many rappers can fill my shoes
That’s size 12 Nike Airs movin’ with savoir faire
So gimme the loot, I’m fly on the 1’s & 2’s
Cool like French Montana in the French Quarter
Rappers out of line? I put them in order
Enter the center, I’m ill in the booth
Sugar, check me out cuz I got a sweet tooth
Except you, I got everything times two
And I’d search far and wide to find and make you mine, too
What we want y’all to do is bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
Bounce, c’mon, Bounce, c’mon.
What we want y’all to do is bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
Bounce, c’mon, Bounce, c’mon.

Get with V and then parle with me
I make ‘em all bounce from the burbs to the city
Ladies in the club shake your tigole bitties
Hit me up on the low cuz this The V’s callin’
So bounce like a ride with fly hyrdraulics
What we want y’all to do is bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
Bounce, c’mon, Bounce, c’mon.

Bounce, c’mon, Bounce, c’mon.

Confetti All Around
04:24
|

Ah, yeah. We the best like DJ Khaled!
Ain’t no stoppin’ our shine
To the victor go the spoils y’all
We be goin’ past the peak
From the suburbs to the streets
I gotta say this life’s sweet
This one’s for people that ride out by the fleet
Never underestimate the power of The V
Drinkin’ bubbly – with the life so lovely
If I’ve been drinkin’ and I’ve been smokin’,
I’m probably on Curtner Ave to stay focused
No hocus pocus – cous, I ride out
No hocus pocus – this ain’t no tryout
See I work my magic out in the field
Scorin’ fly honeys from here to Morgan Hill
See I’m from around the way, a real Bay wonder
Represent the San Jose Shark teal color
Swallow rappers whole like a Great White
Fly like a satellite that’s about to take flight
Zoom, zoom – streakin’ ‘cross the sky
All I wanna do is zoom-a-zoom and stay right
In my district I’m known like a red light
So don’t sleep on the V or it’s time for beddy-bye
I got that life. Let’s celebrate it
I’m the flyest dude in town, hands down
You hear the sound. You love the sound
It’s rainin’ down like confetti all around
I’m bottle poppin’ – Fortino champagne
You finished yet? I’ll order ‘nother round
I got that sound. It boom and pounds
It’s rainin’ down like confetti all around
I stay doe boy fresh like 3 6 Mafia
Treat me with respect – Do you know who you’re talkin’ ta’?
Fresh and clean like Outkast, put you on blast
Outlast rappers who be only ‘bout cash
Stop that. You got to do this from the heart
Like Iron Man, I got smarts the same as Tony Stark
True to my core - light up the scene like Thor
When I kick in the door, all the haters hit the floor
Yeah, It’s goin’ down like that – down pat
Blastin’ off like a rocket from the tarmac
Known to be explosive on the mic with no corrosion
So I’m never rusty – flippin’ scripts with omnipotence
In a sense, V’s got unlimited intelligence
Legit with the logic so I’m takin’ this to print
Like an action thriller from Preston & Child
Now check out the way I’m impressin’ the crowd, yeah!
I got that life. Let’s celebrate it
I’m the flyest dude in town, hands down
You hear the sound. You love the sound
It’s rainin’ down like confetti all around
I’m bottle poppin’ – Fortino champagne
You finished yet? I’ll order ‘nother round
I got that sound. It boom and pounds
It’s rainin’ down like confetti all around
Money keep fallin
Scrilla keep callin for Scrilla to ball out cuz this my callin’
On the mic like Ice Cube cuz I’m steady mobbin’
With these rhymes sign of the times
Still keepin’ it hype…
Comin’ with that champeyon sound
Number #1 stunner in town – my paper knows no bounds
Blowin’ up the spot – chunkin’ up the deuce
If you ain’t talkin’ money – I be sayin’, “Peace out” - meanwhile
I’m focused, man – I’m ain’t stuck in no weed cloud
Droppin’ rhymes ‘til I’m senile
Never get caught up in the penile – free as a bird
Burnin’ bright like a phoenix, so y’all best believe it
I’m reincarnated when I step in the booth
The modern definition of smooth with the groove
So I take this all the way to the top
Never lookin’ down, Scrilla V’s game is top…notch
I got that life. Let’s celebrate it
I’m the flyest dude in town, hands down
You hear the sound. You love the sound
It’s rainin’ down like confetti all around
I’m bottle poppin’ – Fortino champagne
You finished yet? I’ll order ‘nother round
I got that sound. It boom and pounds
It’s rainin’ down like confetti all around

Influences
01:30
|

I’m always stayin’ true to this uptown loop
And I’ll give you the scoop while I’m drivin’ to the hoop
B-boy playin’ b-ball like you can’t be-lieve
See V as I take it to the cup with the steeze
I d-up on the re-up – want game? Pull your seat up
I drive to the lane and kick it out for the free up
You can’t block my shot and I’ll never flop
I’m good to go givin’ all that I’ve got – mic drop
|

Spit some game – chop it up
Lift the trophy – prop it up
Bring your game – step it up
Keep it G – don’t prep it up
Burn the track – sweat it up
Flow with gusto – wet it up
Get it crunk – fill your cup
Post a song and make a buck
I’m a bounty hunter on the mic like Boba Fett
Flexin’ my instruments of death with every single breath
So breathe me into life like Evanescence – I’m blessed kid
Heed my advice, I’ll point you in the right direction
Maneuvering through murkiness – I’m serving all the turkeys
So when it’s meal time I scarf ‘em down like beef jerky
With outstanding vision I can skip the eye doctor
And make it crystal clear – I’m a real Skywalker, yeah!
May the force be with you!
May the force be with you!
May the force be with you!
Have a blast – make it last
Presently – don’t let it past
Get that guap – stash that cash
Be unique – make a splash
Stay hater-free – X out the trash
Represent and you’ll have a smash
Say a joke – hear ‘em laugh
And watch that cutie bat her lash
I’ve seen plenty of ladies fine like Princess Leia
But they’d be out my league even when I go major
So I keep my nose to the grindstone until I reach my zone
Hopin’ my pay comes in layers
I’m slayin’ the competition like a Stormtrooper
But I’m not on the dark side with my maneuvers
Shinin’ brighter than a medallion
I’m more fly than Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon, yeah!
May the force be with you!
May the force be with you!
Put in work – reap rewards
Stay on point – double-edged swords
There’s no hint to what’s in store
So thrill the crowd and hear it roar
Raise the roof and shake the floor
(Shake it!) – Even when you’re not indoors
Stay true to you and you’ll score
Cuz you’re to cool to be ignored
Sometimes I feel like I’m in a Star Wars movie
And my best friend is a hairy Wookie
Some maybe think that The V is nuts
But I won’t land in a rut with Jabba The Hut
I illuminate the young like Obi Won
In my favor, the balance is swung
I eliminate evil like Darth Vader
With a swift swing of my rhyme Lightsaber, yeah!
May the force be with you!
May the force be with you!

Just Imagine
03:41

I battle hard with the strength of a paladin or fighter
Sink my teeth into these tracks - vampire
The wicked word wizard with intelligence that’s higher
Welcome, to my underground empire
So, expect nothing but the best…
Ah, yeah. It’s V, live in the flesh…
Picture this. I’m soaring n the sky like a dragon
And you could be this fly, too. Just imagine…
I got legendary status cuz I run the gauntlet
I’m not intimidated by the golems or goblins
You’ve heard about me like the stories of old
My flow is highly coveted like a chest of gold
Go against any foe in the fiend folio…
…or monster manual with a sword or crossbow
You got to watch out for those nocturnal creatures
If you’re not careful, they’ll beat ‘ya and eat ‘ya
I’m a feature with fictitious features
Mythylogical like Zeus or Perseus clashin’
And when I do this, it’s nothing less than a passion
Oh so advanced so I’m never outclassed
Now you’re baskin’ in the glow of this verbal assassin
Eliminate adversary’s – I outlast ‘em
Past the point of oblivion, is where I’m sendin’ ‘em
And slay my enemies with exceptional dexterity
I battle hard with the strength of a paladin or fighter
Sink my teeth into these tracks - vampire
The wicked word wizard with intelligence that’s higher
Welcome, to my underground empire
So, expect nothing but the best…
Ah, yeah. It’s V, live in the flesh…
Picture this. I’m soaring n the sky like a dragon
And you could be this fly, too. Just imagine…
The V is advanced with charisma and talent
But I wouldn’t be me without Gary Gygax
Rhymin’ expert with a bite like a wyvern
Go against me? You need a Herculean effort
True gladiator…Orc intimidator
I bring light to life – No undead reanimator
When it comes to this I’m fit and swift with the gift
Attacking basilisks, griffins or hippogriffs
You can’t see me like a ghoul or a specter
I’m cut from a different cloth like a chimera
I’m comin’ at you from different directions
Like a hydra or predator bone collector
I’ll keep you guessin’ just like a sphinx
Or any other evil monstrosity
But I’m not hardcore like a manticore
I’m more like half man – half amazin’ like a centaur
I battle hard with the strength of a paladin or fighter
Sink my teeth into these tracks - vampire
The wicked word wizard with intelligence that’s higher
Welcome, to my underground empire
So, expect nothing but the best…
Ah, yeah. It’s V, live in the flesh…
Picture this. I’m soaring in the sky like a dragon
And you could be this fly, too. Just imagine…
Watch out for a werewolf
Or any elemental
Watch out for Efreeti
Or any kind of demon
I don’t worry ‘bout danger
Cuz I’m skilled like a ranger
With spectacular vernacular
Rhymin’ word rearranger

No Boundaries
04:08

No boundaries – unlimited – forever reaching out to the stratosphere
Reaching out to the atmosphere – reaching out across the hemisphere
No boundaries – everlasting – all the way ‘til the end of the decade
‘Til the end of the century – ‘til the end of the millennium
Always – all day – anywhere - I’m in like flynn
Never stoppin’ – never losin’ – never stallin’ – never snoozin’
Always – all day – everywhere I do my thing
Keep hustlin’ keep groovin’ keep grindin’ keep movin’
No boundaries like Neil Armstrong
If you buy blue chip stock market options
Make sure to check the volatility index
It forms the foundation of your decisions
That’s investment advice that works
Think twice or you’ll lose your shirt
So you can bounce back from any setbacks
And don’t’ stray from your plan to stack greenbacks
That’s right. Like it or love it
And heed the advice from the one, Warren Buffett
Roll with the ups and downs on the daily
With a long-term outlook and get paid B.
So you can grow your own net worth
And that’s good like a chocolate dessert
It’s time to splurge on the finer things
Designer jeans and four-fingered rings.…
Yeah, It’s all real in the field
I want you to be more than one that just functions
Hook you up like a corporate luncheon
That’s from the way I take the numbers and crunch them
Also known as the silicon hookup
The good life is above the horizon so look up
Stop trudgin’, laggin’ and draggin’
You can have success with no need for braggin’
If anyone asks, you can say that you’re good
Don’t’ need a handout just like you should
Now that’s a wrap - don’t need a handicap
When you’re bettin’ so no need for sweatin’
The small stuff – you see the bigger picture
It’s all in your scripture you write cuz it fits ‘ya, now…
…You’re a bonafide roll model
Follow my lead and you’ll lead those that follow
No boundaries – unlimited – forever reaching out to the stratosphere
Reaching out to the atmosphere – reaching out across the hemisphere
No boundaries – everlasting – all the way ‘til the end of the decade
‘Til the end of the century – ‘til the end of the millennium
Always – all day – anywhere - I’m in like flynn
Never stoppin’ – never losin’ – never stallin’ – never snoozin’
Always – all day – everywhere I do my thing
Keep hustlin’ keep groovin’….
It’s a good chance for rain
I make ‘em celebrate like a ticker-tape parade
Through the urban areas out to the burbs
Now and again I keep it simple and plain
No flossin’? Well, every now and again
Breakin’ barriers like Jerome Lane dunks
No punk! I send a message to the comp
Yo, yo! There I go!...like a Cool J response
So who’s bad? I’m not concerned with that
Keep working my pen in my journals of rap
So be smart or you’ll say “That smarts!”
You don’t want to get caught out off guard
Rely on your smarts but thirst for more
There’s always something to learn from your surroundings
Keep a cool head when any pressure’s mounting
But my fans stay enlightened and they’re bouncing
That’s edutainment. Never need an arraignment
I spit the truth in the booth…Commonplace kid?
Uh, huh. Nope. No way.
On any topic, I get kaleidoscopic
Just like a prism with a full spectrum
And multi-faceted gems for your ingestion
Since my birthday only a few transgressions
No vices other than a few exceptions
Givin’ you the real deal whole rendition
Blessed to be sittin’ in the pole position
Leader of the pack…Two-seater on the track
Ride ready since back in the day to the future
Sewn up like a suture
Down for whatever like Cube comin’ down like Paul Wall…
The San Jose people’s champ
Burnin’ up amps swervin’ on the off-ramps
No boundaries – unlimited – forever reaching out to the stratosphere
Reaching out to the atmosphere – reaching out across the hemisphere
No boundaries – everlasting – all the way ‘til the end of the decade
‘Til the end of the century – ‘til the end of the millennium
Always – all day – anywhere - I’m in like flynn
Never stoppin’ – never losin’ – never stallin’ – never snoozin’
Always – all day – everywhere I do my thing
Keep hustlin’ keep groovin’….

The Siliconian Outro
01:35
|

Peace and I’m out – I put it down without a doubt
And keep the crowd movin’ with the lyrics I pronounce
The music is dope and inspirational, yes
I feel blessed to be given you the bus-i-ness – so fresh
There’s no one like me – Been rappin’ since the 90’s
Now I’m 50 and still rap with perfect timing
So, I’d like to say…that I’ve had a blast
Makin’ music for myself, friends, fam and my fans.
