It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
(You never knew)
It's not a wrong thing to be addicted to the microphone like a heroin fiend

Those that know not doze and it shows
Creating the bump is our only incentive

We finding trees and trails to blaze boundaries to cross
I'm poised, we never pose, you'll never know

So you know what we gots to do
You're making some green

We're livin' out our dreams if there's somethin' I can't live without
(You never knew)
(You never knew)
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
We unstoppable, droppin' flows in Toronto
Musical boundaries runnin' circles around emcees
Or your raps under develop like a fetus
All the way from gangsta clones to weirdos
With phony IDs, but sometimes I feel like
Fools used those but we ain't trippin'
Where fakin' emcees get caught with the 40-bottle
We can be found beyond the bounds of reason
And elaborate on how your team's fake
Utterly hovering over other things material
Our perfection on the microphone was predestined
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
(You never knew)
(You never knew)
Where they put major grands in my hand follow
Stay paid, I'm still grade-A none of that tomfoolery
(You never knew)
Or earthbound, heatin' up the Coliseum
And then they got a new fool in your place to be okayed
It's like, it's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
In this contemporary maze of methods to floss
As you can see this shit ain't nothin' new to me
Rekindling in ways that many thought was lost
World-renowned, we ground-breakin'
(You never knew)

It's like a Hieroglyphics, yeah, it's like
Like investin' in land  it started all from impressin' the fans
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
Plus you're sweating profusely, here's a towel
But the only thing I fear is fear itself
But not for drama or fashion
That's my team you never knew
Like it should be? Never givin' out
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
Straight from the heart we set apart from the rest an'
Musical boundaries runnin' circles around emcees
(You never knew)
I'm stackin' cash until I can get Moms a mansion
It's like, it's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
Maneuverin' through Vancouver and on to Japan
Hieroglyphics hip-hop is vintage invented in days back
With brand new flows and you know
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah, it's like
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
From '93 'til infinity we've been inventive
As I proceed to give the people what they wantin'
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
World-renowned, we ground-breakin'
(You never knew)
In today but hey, tomorrow it's played
You're stuck in the here and now
Hieroglyphics hip-hop is vintage
Your fears are now reality when I take your dream states
I'll tell you one thing you'll never catch me frontin'
Hiero, y'all
Del been rhymin' for more than a decade
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
Onto the next stage, while emcees need aid
Or get their chains snatched, pronto
They rushed the stage full-throttle in Chicago our brains interlocked
It's like a Hieroglyphics, yeah
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
It's like that and a, a Hieroglyphics, yeah
All from rappin'? Nah, man, there's many plans
