Shook Ones, Pt. II

I got you stuck off the realness, we be the infamous You heard of us, official Queensbridge murderers The Mobb comes equipped for warfare beware Of my crime family, who got 'nuff shots to share For all of those who wanna profile and pose Rock you in your face, stab your brain with your nose bone You're all alone in these streets, cousin Every man for they self in this land we be gunnin'

Rhyme Scheme

AABBCCDD with heavy multisyllabic internal rhymes (/ɪməs/, /ɛr/, /oʊz/, /ɪn/)

Producer Notes

Prodigy executes the quintessential grimy East Coast flow with four distinct rhyme couples. The opening chain (/ɪməs/) spans two lines with stacked internal rhymes: stuck/realness/infamous and official/heard of us/murderers. Prodigy's genius lies in making every internal rhyme work double duty—both propelling the flow and reinforcing the lyrical content's menace.
