Long Road to Glory Lyrics


J U R A S S I C F I V EHe who is without sin cast the first stone
Blast the verse, no matter the class, I'm vers'tile
Kickin' it for you hipocritic berzerk ohms, I'm hopin' at worst
Hopin' the words that touch home and clutch domes
Ya' think, electrical sockets and wet feet
How you infinitely get sleep the minute we get deepLadies and 'gents peep one hundred percent heat
Up undersea mistreats, now I'll leave you mince meat
Yes, I'm from unity
My last name sits in the middle of opportunity
(Huh)
With two-laid plans and new-made fans
My crew raid lands and punch like the Kool-Aid ManIt was a long road to glory
Battle for territory
Just to be called the masters of the ceremonyMarathon, Decathalon
Word-play, Mega-bomb
Metabolism with the rhythm
Keep it goin' onIt was a long road to glory
Battle for territory

Just to be called the masters of the ceremonyMarathon, Decathalon
Word-play, Mega-bomb
Metabolism with the rhythm
Keep it goin' onThe epitomy, five-hundred thousand so convincingly
Street ministry, J-5th-a-tune infantry
Finna be, about to be
The best kept commodity, twelve incher LP
We're representin' properly
Now possibly the knock could be
That old school philosophy
That if it doesn't rock a beat
It's not considered propertyRemember me, remember us
Ice Cold, Cold Crush, 1920 Gold Rush
Rollin' up, hold up
Now ain't no need for you to be surprised
When we implement and improvise
With each and every verse that I
Get busy with, lacing it with murder talk
Turn a 'sault, Tom-A-Hawk
Razor sharp, tribal walkFresh gear, we're makin' our beds
And we're doin' lots of things
That we never did
We went to Paris in the spring-time
Bahamas in the fall
We thank Alla, we're doin' it allIt was a long road to glory
Battle for territory
Just to be called the masters of the ceremonyMarathon, Decathalon
Word-play, Mega-bomb
Metabolism with the rhythm
Keep it goin' onPick a paragraph and phrase it, mentally you save it
Kick it to the world and suddenly they crave it
That's the way it is, in this verbal warfare workin' hard for the love
But there ain't no wars here
Years been puttin' on a play with your foot in
'Cuz you'll be comin' back like the brother Dwight Gooden
Seven's back again, slappin' men and askin' them
If they really wanna fuck wit' the style we tappin' inHey yo, I just couldn't wait to grab a piece of my own cake
So I can elevate and hold my own weight
My mind state be the ghetto, street corner heavy metal
Black like the pot and tea kettle
My street credibility, minus negativity
Multiplied energy, what attends a few
Ability sililoque of a real MC
Tastin' the grammar, J5 slamma jammaIt was a long road to glory
Battle for territory
Just to be called the masters of the ceremonyMarathon, Decathalon
Word-play, Mega-bomb
Metabolism with the rhythm
Keep it goin' on(Oh, here we go)
Metabolism with the rhythm
Keep it goin' onMarathon, Decathalon
Word-play, Mega-bomb(Oh, here we go)
Metabolism with the rhythm
Keep it goin' onMarathon, Decathalon
Word-play, Mega-bomb

Jurassic 5 was originally a six-piece hip-hop crew that was formed in 1993 at the Los Angeles, California venue Good Life. Rappers Chali 2na, Akil, Zaakir aka Soup, Mark 7even, and turntable maestros DJ Nu-Mark and DJ Cut Chemist came together from two separate crews, the Rebels of Rhythm and Unity Committee. Cut Chemist left the band in 2006 to pursue a solo career.

The group debuted for TVT Records in 1995 with the single for Unified Rebelution. Their acclaimed position in the 1990s alternative hip-hop movement, alongside artists including Company Flow, Black Star and Kool Keith, was confirmed when the Jurassic 5 EP was released in December 1997.

The EP was later repackaged with additional tracks and released in December 1998 as the band's full-length debut album, entitled Jurassic 5 LP.

The tracks harked back to the old school attitude of new york's Native Tongues Posse, the seminal late 1980s coalition of artists who reaffirmed rap's social agenda, which included De La Soul, the Jungle Brothers and A Tribe Called Quest. This was evident on the song Concrete Schoolyard ("Let's take it back to the concrete streets/Original beats from real live MCs"), and the album even provided the troupe with a surprise uk Top 40 single when it reached number 35 in November 1998. The other stand-out track, Jayou, was built around a hypnotic flute loop from Pleasure Web's Music Man Part 1 (Music Man Part 1).

In 1999, Jurassic 5 signed to Interscope Records, who re-released the Jurassic 5 EP. This was followed by their second album (their first on a major label), Quality Control.

In 2002, they released their third album, Power In Numbers, which was followed by touring with the newly-revived Lollapalooza festival in the summer of 2003.

Their latest album, Feedback, was released on July 25, 2006.

On March 21, 2007, in an interview with the Australian news outlet News.com.au, Zaakir confirmed that the band would be breaking up after their current and final live-tour.
