Work The Angles Lyrics

[00:03.13] Dilated Peoples
[00:07.06] Dilated Peoples
[00:12.84] Dilated Peoples (wassup, wassup?)
[00:18.32] Dilated Peoples
[00:22.88] I work the angles sharp and precise (precise)
[00:25.83] Dilated Peoples so you better build twice (Dilated Peoples)
[00:28.40] Act like ya know, not now but right now
[00:30.85] Dilated Peoples (yeah)
[00:32.59] The name is Iriscience
[00:33.72] I go through rivers (what?) So I don't leave a scent
[00:36.13] I travel both directions but leave one set of prints (right)
[00:39.02] It's just a little trick, of the indigenous
[00:41.69] Developing inner visions of what religion is (uh)
[00:44.33] I caught the understanding and the underhanded
[00:47.13] I plan to build my ship and man it to another planet
[00:49.69] Under heavy surveillance, many different agents
[00:52.45] Some are camouflage, others are very blatant (right)
[00:55.00] I study weapon systems and vocal fighting forms
[00:57.48] I'm many moves ahead, the thoughts are highly formed (yeah)
[01:00.34] Like time, times, time, times, time is time squared (what)
[01:02.94] Went there, sayin', "Rakaa you don't rhyme fair"
[01:05.28] But I never dummy lyrics and they kick it to my people (never)
[01:08.08] It's about communication not a rappers ego (right)
[01:10.47] Messages I sneak in they seem to seep in
[01:13.44] Mixed with alcohol and weed on the weekend
[01:16.02] Shared among friends like various sins
[01:18.52] One day it clicks it's no longer dim (no longer dim)
[01:20.95] Time release capsules humble the headstrong (uh)
[01:23.90] Your thoughts of takin' me head on are dead wrong (what?)
[01:26.42] I work the angles sharp and precise (yeah)
[01:29.27] Dilated Peoples so you better build twice (Dilated Peoples)
[01:31.87] Act like ya know, not now but right now
[01:34.51] Dilated Peoples (yeah)
[01:36.74] I work the angles sharp and precise
[01:39.81] Dilated Peoples so you better build twice (Dilated Peoples
[01:42.36] Act like ya know, not now but right now
[01:44.98] Dilated Peoples
[01:46.49] It's the master of Aikido
[01:48.41] I let go, karate confrontations (yeah)
[01:50.25] Evidence scientist in innovation
[01:52.86] I locks on when I travels around planets (now, hold on)
[01:55.93] Smooth but got a rough edge like Wulitzer pianists (yes, yes!)
[01:58.33] Display mucho attack, receive payments for the cadence
[02:01.18] A in this, you get fit foul with flagrance
[02:03.73] Free agents on the dotted line more hard to sign
[02:06.41] Not easily impressed with gold mines and whole nines
[02:08.78] I'm somewhere in-between never rushed and in a hurry
[02:11.62] And when I swing my bat I don't think I'll miss like baseball fury
[02:14.47] The jury's hung, from verdict and got no chance (no chance)
[02:17.11] Dilated comes first the rest are second like Stu Lantz
[02:19.56] Oh yes it get better every day (yes, yes)
[02:21.47] The Aged wine, is my mind on vintage display
[02:24.31] Unattended in this case
[02:26.23] (The Ace two steps ahead)
[02:27.35] Every day is Mayday and best friends are Feds (what)
[02:30.09] But I know this that's why they closest
[02:31.89] In a crisis situation you negotiate first (first)
[02:34.26] I'm perfectly focused
[02:36.14] Strategic and in a zone
[02:38.01] It was radar detected but my speed was unknown
[02:40.50] Anonymity, that's my key to survival
[02:43.44] "Ev" is not for Evid, it's for Evidence on trial (it's for what?)
[02:45.98] Just remember in this game it take two to tango
[02:48.63] Don't go to them let them come to you
[02:50.76] And work the angles (and work the angles)
[02:52.00] Sharp and precise
[02:53.73] Dilated Peoples so you better build twice
[02:56.29] Act like ya know, not now but right now
[03:00.46] Dilated Peoples
[03:01.69] I work the angles sharp and precise
[03:04.36] Dilated Peoples so you better build twice
[03:06.98] Act like ya know, not now but right now
[03:09.49] Dilated Peoples (work the angles)
[03:21.00] Dilated Peoples
[03:23.76] Dila-
[03:31.70] Dilated Peoples
[03:35.35] Dilated
[03:36.72] Dilated
[03:38.14] Dilated
[03:39.64] Dila-, dila-, dila-
[03:43.09] Dilated Peoples
