lyrics

Who Got Balls?

Now....It started out with Ludichrist in 1986,
They were the first pioneers, bold enough to take the risk/
Crossover thrash, "Most People Are Dicks",
Hardcore metal with some rapping in the mix/
"Green Eggs & Ham", "Government Kids", "God Is Everywhere",
"Fire At The Firehouse" and it's not fair.../
I'm one of the first white boys who peanut buttered on the rap jam,
Scratching dad's records, looping beats up on the tascam/

No one had balls to mix it different and mash strong,
Nobody had the balls to run with it and dash long/
Amalgamate the styles you were guessing would clash wrong,
(But) Kabal got the balls to be fucking with a thrash song/

1987 is when the metal mixed with rap tracks,
RUN D.M.C. & Beastie Boys were making mad stacks/
Cool J & P.E., guitars on the fat wax,
"I'm The Man!" by a band called Anthrax/

No one got balls if they never hit a mosh pit,
See me "stage-diving" like I was jumping out the cockpit/
"Front flips", "windmills", "skanking" obnoxious,
"Picking up change" peoples dropping out they pockets/

Speaking of change, the scene started to change,
Artist stepping out the box, whole hearted with range/
But the closed minded ones, always thought it was strange,
How I found rap and hardcore one in the same/
Different worlds running parallel, I'm showing my gratitude,
From "Attitude Adjustment" to "Niggaz With Attitude"/
From "C.O.C" to "The D.O.C",
S.O.D., EAZY E, M.D.C., EPMD/
The recipe that got me feinding for the mic in my hand,
Forever dreaming of me rapping with a hardcore band/

Still, Nobody got the balls to try and mix it up and mash strong,
No one got the balls because they thought it wouldn't last long/
Amalgamate the styles you were guessing would clash wrong,
(But) Kabal's got balls to be rapping on a thrash song/

Hardcore music brings you back from the dead,
The same way rap music gets you banging your head/
Fake clowns get ready for the shakedown,
Looking like the "D.R.I." guy, when I hear a fucking breakdown/

Hopping on the grass, 92' was a blast,
Started doing punk/raps with my band 3 n' Pass/
Then in 1995, evil live with The Wiggaz,
And by the end of 97' I was a full time Grifter/

So who got balls to try and rap like this?
Who got balls to attack so brisk?
So who got balls to tackle tracks like this?
Kabal's got balls, the rap anarchist/

Who got balls? X2

So who got balls to try and rap like this?
So who got balls to attack so brisk?
So who got balls to tackle tracks like this?
Kabal & Grog got the sacks for this/ (shit)
