Mike!
he doesn't need his name up in lights
he just wants to be heard whether its the beat or the mic
he feels so unlike every body else, alone
in spite of the fact that some people still think that they know him
but Fuck em
he knows the code:
its not about the salary, its all about reality
and making some noise
making the story
making sure his clique stays up
that means when he puts it down, tak's pickin it up
Who the hell is he anyway? < /p>
he never really talks much
never concerned with status
but still leavin 'em starstruck
humbled through oppurtunities
< p>givin despite the factthat many misjudge him
because he makes a living from writing raps
put it together himself
and the picture connects
never askin for someones help, or to get some respect
hes only focused on what he wrote
his will is beyond reach
p>
and now it all unfolds
the skill of an artiste
20% skill
80% beer
Be 100% clear
cuz ryu is ill
who woulda thought hed be the one to set the west in flames
I heard him wreck it with the crystal method Name of the game
Came back dropped megadef, took em to church
i like bleach man
ryu had the stupidest verse
this dude is the truth
now everybodys givin him guest spots
his stocks through the roof

ryu!
They call him ryu the sick
and hes spitting fire and mic
got him out the dryer hes hot
found him in fort Minor With Tak
He's a fucking nihilist porcupine
hes a prick hes a cock
the type women wanna be with and rappers hope he gets shot
8 years and the makin
patiently waitin to blow
< p>now the record with shinoda'stakin over the globe
hes got a partner in crime
his shit is equally dope
you wont believe the kinda shit that comes out of this kids throat
tak!
He's not your every day on the block
he knows how to work with what hes got makin his way to the top
he often gets a comment on his name
people keep askin him was it
given at birth
or was it stand for an acronym
No
He's livin proof, look at him rockin the booth
he'll get you buzzin quicker than a shot of vodka with juice
Him and his crew are known around as one of the best
dedicated to what they do, and give 100
forget mike
nobody real knows how or why, he works so hard it seems like hes never got time
becuz he writes every note, and he writes every line
and ive seen him at work, when that light goes on in his mind
its like a design is written in his head every time
before he even touches a key or speaks in a rhyme
and those mothafuckas he runs with, the kids that he signed, rediculous
without even tryin
how do they do it?
It's 10% luck
20% skill

5% pleasure
50% pain
and 100% reason to remember the name
