[Intro]
 [bad word] to Exit 13
 I am your host
 LL Cool J
 [Verse 1]
 You said I was finished
 And Father Time was the blame
 You disrespected my legacy
 And threw dirt on my name
 Told DJs he's over
 He ain't spittin' the same
 What he says is irrelevant
 Hip-Hop culture has changed
 When I walk in the room
 Young boys look at me strange
 As if I am a relic
 From some long forgotten game
 It makes my blood boil
 Turns my eyes to flames
 I built an empire
 They tried to kick me out in the rain
 So I called on an inner power
 It's hard to explain
 It's like a holy spirit
 Utilizing Hip-Hop slang
 I'm beyond the gold grills
 And logos on chains
 You see I changed rap forever
 I elevated the game
 Launched the greatest label
 In the history of rap
 And for 24 years
 I carried it on my back
 I've always shined brighter
 When I'm under attack
 I might be down for a moment
 But I [bad word] back
 [bad word] 
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war (Uh, yeah)
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war (Check it)
 It's time for war 
[Verse 2]
 This is a resurrection
 I'm back from the dead 
They told me quit a long time ago 
But I conquered instead
 I had dreams and visions 
Swirling around in my head
 I had this hunger deep inside of me 
That has to be fed 
Hip-Hop will respect 
All the blood that I shed
 I have a covenant with God
 I have swallowed the bread
 Hip-Hop my co-defendant 
With this mic I thee wed
 I made an entire generation 
Obey what we said
 I'm talkin' France to Germany
 From Italy to Japan
 From London to Belgium 
To Afghanistan 
From Farmers Boulevard
 Smokin' a blunt with my man 
To writin' rhymes on a ironing board
 To build Def Jam
 You see, I'm the undisputed
 King of all Hip-Hop
 Everything after is my legacy
 Like it or not
 And I will keep making history
 I can't stop
 LL Cool J
 Eternally hot
 [bad word] 
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war (Uh)
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 [Verse 3]
 Look at how easily I flipped it
 And switched the style around
 [bad word] losin' their footing
 I see them falling down
 They will plot against me
 It kills them because I'm ballin' now
 Some of y'all didn't pick up the phone
 But I got you callin' now
 This is a job that must get done
 Even if I [bad word] public enemy number one
 If I had to pick up an Uzi
 That weighs over a ton
 I will attack Hip-Hop
 [bad word] is none
 Nobody on God's earth wants it with L
 You end up tortured
 And trapped in psychological [bad word] 
 And this is the beginning
 Of a new era in rap
 LL Cool J, feel the impact
 It's okay if you call it [bad word] 
 And let them know
 I'm ready [bad word] 
 Tell those dumb [bad word] to fall back
 The crown looks wrong on your head
 I want that
 [bad word] 
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
 It's time for war
