Rattling the Keys to the Kingdom Lyrics


We came and we conquered, they praying to poppa,
They claiming they want to, they really don't want to,
You ain't maiming a monster so don't bother with offers,
Till the day that I die, I ain't stepping aside for one of you,
We came and we conquered, they praying to poppa,
They claiming they want to, they really don't want to,
You ain't maiming a monster so don't bother with offers,
Till the day that I die, I ain't stepping aside for one of you
[Pressure:]
Check, When I start breathing heavily, I scar the beat and melody,
They said that we dreaming we'll keep reaching till we leaving heavenly,
The key to freedoms said to be, release and leave the memory,
Think you offended me? Please, with critics like these who needs an enemy?
Indeed a breed of pedigree beast unleashing speech telepathy,
Here to bleed the industry of its diseased and evil effigy,
Demons, thieving, greed and revelry, we're in need and seeking remedy,
But it seems to stay ten feet ahead of me like a centipede,

I'm a train upon a track, I'm a flame upon a match,
Ain't straying from my place I want my face upon the map,
I'm the weight upon your back, I'm a razor on your lap,
We came to conquer, stage and opera, fade it onto black,
Now hush, hear the voice, so addicted to the,
Rush to fill the void, missing everything we,
Love to feel joy, build it up then we,
Crush, kill, destroy
[Chorus:]
We came and we conquered, they praying to poppa,
They claiming they want to, they really don't want to,
You ain't maiming a monster so don't bother with offers,
Till the day that I die, I ain't stepping aside for one of you,
We came and we conquered, they praying to poppa,
They claiming they want to, they really don't want to,
You ain't maiming a monster so don't bother with offers,
Till the day that I die, I ain't stepping aside for one of you
[Suffa:]
I go bananas every time, mind blown Nirvana, Nevermind,
They need some ketamine to calm us, harness the darkness every line,
Till I been enlightened I'm leaving 'em terrified,
Like Bin Laden been hiding under their bed every night they go beddy-bye,
Fat as the fattest Federline, fat as that cat post Brittney,
Madness that is a friend of mine, rappers get mashed so quickly,
War comes, hear the roar from the raw drums, beat your poor son just from the boredom,
Jump up, but you're stunned, dumb struck, you're done like Young Buck post Fifty,
We claw at the morons, and pour on the soothing hooks on heaters,
Like them pouring the Boron on core on the shore of Fukushima,
They adore the recordings and we lording it over them,
Think we're joking? Then we're going door to door with some Dobermans,
No DMX, they thinking they got me pegged like BMX,
But ain't seeing T or X, Briggs, Hons, Debris or Vents,
We the best, no Khaled,
We the best like Ali, Muhammad
[Chorus:]
We came and we conquered, they praying to poppa,
They claiming they want to, they really don't want to,
You ain't maiming a monster so don't bother with offers,
Till the day that I die, I ain't stepping aside for one of you,
We came and we conquered, they praying to poppa,
They claiming they want to, they really don't want to,
You ain't maiming a monster so don't bother with offers,
Till the day that I die, I ain't stepping aside for one of you

Hilltop Hoods is a hip hop group, formed in 1991, from Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. Their name refers to Hilltop Road In Blackwood, an Adelaide suburb in which they lived as children, and a part of Adelaide known by all the local B-Boys as The Hilltop. One day, another local rapper, Flak from the Cross Bred Mongrels, said that's what they should call themselves, and the name stuck.

The group formed when MCs Suffa and Pressure met at high school. When they later hooked up with DJ Debris through a mutual friend, the trio was complete.

They were inspired by American hip hop artists such as KRS-One, Gang Starr and Pete Rock, who encouraged them to spread this style of music in Australia.

The Hilltop Hoods have released eight successful recordings - Back Once Again (EP - 1997), A Matter of Time (LP - 1999), Left Foot, Right Foot (LP - 2001), The Calling (LP - 2003), The Hard Road (LP - 2006), The Hard Road: Restrung (LP-2007) ,State Of The Art (LP - 2009) and Drinking From The Sun (LP - 2012). The Calling achieved gold status in Australia (35,000+ copies sold), the first hip-hop album to do so. Two tracks (The Nosebleed Section and Dumb Enough) received places in the Triple J Hottest 100, 2003, at 9th and 44th respectively. The Nosebleed Section also came in at number 17 in the Triple J Hottest Hundred Of All Time, making it the highest ranked Australian song on the list, and the only hip-hop track to make the cut. LP The Hard Road also topped the Australian charts, another first for Australian Hip-Hop.


Aside from their own albums, they have featured on a number of highly respected compilation albums, including Obesecity and Culture of Kings Vol. 1 & 2, and have collaborated with most of the main players of the Australian hip hop scene including Koolism, Mass MC, Pegz, Muphin, Layla, Hyjak and Bonez.

They have played many large Australian music festivals, including the Big Day Out, Splendour in the Grass and Falls Festivals. They have received nominations for the Best Hip Hop Act in 2001 and 2002 at the 3D World Dance Music Awards, won the APRA award for best up-coming group as well as receiving number one positions in independent charts all around Australia.
