[Q-Tip]
Handle rocks with the capital G, ball on the beat

[Phife] (Q-Tip)
Status +Chris Paul+ and +John Wall+ in the league
Grabbin' mics 'til the knuckles'll bleed ('Cause I believe)
The potent that I'm quotin' will have you geeked like speed
If rationale is naturale or a weave it's all edges and peas
Settin' press we on a permanent steeze

[Q-Tip]
I'm in a world where my +Princess+ is +Leia+ and she's feelin' my +Vader+
And my lure grows greater and greater
Chem trails droppin' poisonous vapors, have you shaking like gator
Been trill, nigga, process the data
Blu-ray, wave file, or a Beta, I'll DVR it for later
Kappo Masa with a G to my waiter
You can't define us, XY us, or Z us you generational elitists
Have your chi in virtual think pieces

[Q-Tip & Jarobi]
See these written words are poetical science brain's defiant
Thoughts heavy baby they're a major appliance

[Jarobi]
Leave a dent when drop with the flyness fluent giant
Dude's nice, he tight, screwed in with some pliers
Cool with some buyers,yeah, nigga cool with some growers

[Jarobi & Q-Tip]
Never no tattletales, only y'all don't know us

[Q-Tip]
We a show me generation show us what you gon' show us
So listen mami see we could collude with a boing
Mouthpiece like +Goins+ with a jubilant noise
Dudes rude and as useless as coins, shoot 'em boys
Versed in rehearsed in the soothin' of loins
Talk to +Joey+ +Earl+ +Kendrick+ and +Cole+ gatekeepers of flow
They are extensions of instinctual soul
It's the highest in commodity grade
And you could get it today

[Chorus: Sample from "Pass The Dutchie" by Musical Youth]
This generation! This generation! This generation! 
This generation! This generation! This generation! 
Rules the nation

[Q-Tip] (Busta Rhymes)
One hittin' readin' pages of +Poe+
Telly is low, cuddle bunny ready to go
Day of the dead (Bury all the zombies instead)
And it's just your +Aftermath+ Busta cuttin' your dreads

[Busta Rhymes]
+Bruce Leein'+ niggas,while you niggas +UFC+
Smoke tree on niggas sizzle out your USB

[Phife]
Surge pricing on these Ubers I'm a get me a cab)

[Q-Tip]
Yo, where Jarobi at?

[Jarobi]
Imbibin' on impeccable grass
I be in NYC waiting for that law to pass

[Phife]
(Pass shit, been waiting for a +Jets+ title since last
+Richard Todd+ +Todd Bowles+ +Gang Green+ on that ass

[Q-Tip]
+Magic Mike+ on the mic +David Blaine+ +Douglass Henning+

[Busta Rhymes]
In the church of Busta Rhymes it's my sermon you gettin'
Horizontal spittin' I'm the exorcist of your writtens
(DON'T INTERRUPT ME NIGGA!!!) Sorry that's a sin unforgiven
Like how we be skippin' on beats like cookin' crack in the kitchen

[Q-Tip]
B-b-b-b-b-b-but wait just start the package, dry it, bag up the wet
This mad city's not a game easy quiet on set, Phife

[Phife]
Student of the past trailblazin' a daze
Not acknowledging a trend or swept up in a phase
We still the highest of commodity grade and you could get it to 
Get it to-get it to-get it to-get it today)

[Chorus: Sample from "Pass The Dutchie" by Musical Youth]
This generation! This generation! This generation! 
This generation! This generation! This generation! 
Rules the nation

[Outro: Q-Tip]
This! is! our! generation generation! uh huhhhhhh yeahhhhh!!!!
This! is! our! generation generation! uh huhhhhhh!!!!
This! is! our! generation generation! uh huhhhhhh!!!!
