lyrics
WICKED WITCH of the WEST COAST
---------------------------------------------------
Be not afraid …Get away!
You are in the house of God…
Be not afraid, what afflicts you?
A witch…a witch, a witch afflicts me!
Where be this witch?
Right here motherfucker!
Time for the revival, the rebirth and the reckoning
Microphone check one, two I’m checkin’ in
I felt the beckoning and answered the calling
Mind, body and soul now I’m all in
The reawakening and manifestation of me
Blessed be, to the power of three
Coming hard like a gangsta,
Thanks to the way I was raised…on NWA
So be mindful when you speakin’ to me
Cuz I can get primal with a scream if need be
Keep my profile low like WC
Ain’t a damn thang changed inside me
Lived and died in the heat of Los Angeles
Within an industry that’s always been scandalous
Kept my dignity was true to my essence
And now it’s time for you to feel my presence
Witchy Woman…
Mouth is my weapon, microphone lethal
Murder’s what she wrote, this is more evil
Witchy Woman…
Mouth is my weapon, microphone lethal
Murder’s what she wrote, this is more evil
Fasten your seatbelts… It's gonna be a bumpy night
Quote Bette Davis, when I’m on the mic
Polarize when I leave but this ain't “All About Eve”
I'm a vet not an ingénue, ya betta believe
I’m legit, I’m never weak when I spit
Speak my mind so never mind why I quit
Cuz I'm back and I'm fierce just like vintage Chanel
Resurrected myself and I can still rock bells
Like LL with a rebel yell and I own it
This is my moment
Hello! Now let the dust settle
Ya thought you lost me to heavy metal
Hell no! I still flow like the poets I quote from the past
Woolf to Sylvia Plath
Casting spells when I clear my throat
The Wicked Witch of the West Coast
The Wicked Witch of the West Coast
West Coast style, from LA
Yeah, I think you know my name
Now that’s what I’m sayin’
Now don’t get mad cause I’m back with a vengeance
Just clear the way as I make my entrance
Like an old school beat that’s mean with style
Ain’t got time to act a fool like a child
I’m grown and you shoulda known I’d come off like a boss
In a suit, never mind what it cost
That’s irrelevant, not here to flaunt figures
Or flash my tits and ass like other bitches
I’m Ruthless you’re gonna respect it
I influenced ever since my first record
A headbanger and a motherfuckin rhymesayer
From Ice Cube to Slayer
So let it rain, reign in blood, get ready
Here I come to cold crush and rock steady
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned
Or a bitch reborn…yeah
Witchy Woman…
Mouth is my weapon, microphone lethal
Murder’s what she wrote, this is more evil
Witchy Woman…
Mouth is my weapon, microphone lethal
Murder’s what she wrote, this is more evil
Mouth is my weapon…the saga continues…old school, new shot
Mouth is my weapon…the saga continues…this is more evil
Mouth is my weapon…the saga continues…old school, new shot
Mouth is my weapon…the saga continues…this is more evil
