First official track of the album. Be sure to listen all the way through for the surprise ending.

lyrics

[Intro]
This is unlike anything you've ever experienced before
And unlike anything you'll ever experience again

I hope you're ready for it
Cause its....coming at ya!

Goliath Warfare, Oh yeah!

[QJ]
Collideascope, the brightest hope
Breaking barriers while haters try to cope
Gotta complaint? Then just write a note
We'll roll it up and burn it, light a toke
And I don't even smoke, chop it like a line of coke
You look like you're 'fin to choke like there's cinnamon in your throat
Could it be that your BS has been revoked?
That our silence has been broke?
That the jokes that you wrote and you spoke behind our backs became the spokes on our bike
The waters that kept our ship afloat?
Oh yeah, that sounds about right
You keep your mouth tight shut
And listen hard as I erupt on this track, burning the M.I.C.
V.I.P Status till we end up in the E.R.
That's wordplay, Vipers are what we are, venomous
So we get into this, screw all that innocence
It doesn't interest me, and there's no need for all that intricacy
Its pretty simple really, QJ and T-Squared in the place
Just put it on Repeat, hear this bumping on your street, 'cause

[Chorus]
Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
Ashes of the bird building my empire
Bright enough for you to see it

Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
I pray that this flame never goes out
Goes out
Goes out

[QJ]
The track is brewing, we give it the right flavor
The flow is the force, microphone is the lightsaber
So savor the remainder of your brain as they try to change ya
Fill you with the pain of being the same till you're a stranger
Hypnotized by fame, your own name will put you in danger
Caught up in all the rain, you're
About to drown inside your own penance
Gotta deal with your own edits
No more pleasures or fetish, now roll credits
Fires of the soul burning inside me
Day is gonna come don't have to worry about timing
Yeah, see the future flashing like lightning
Music keeping me whole and still at peace, keep it hype
Pick it up, pick it up, don't ever let it drop
Cause this is true hip hop and it will never stop, yeah
We will let it burn when its already so hot, I said
We will let it burn whether you're ready or not, because

[Chorus]
Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
Ashes of the bird building my empire
Bright enough for you to see it

Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
I pray that this flame never goes out
Goes out
Goes out

[T-Squared]
My poetic flow knows no limits
Cause the volcanic ashes that clashes with the tattered
And battered up emcees believe that we can speak
With the need to feed every generation, in every sort of fashion
Every syllable is true, No need to doubt what we’re about to do
Hated for the long awaited fated unabated restoration of Hip Hop
Saviors of the game, came to creation (yeah) as soon as the beat dropped
I don’t know how to stop time in order for these people to feel me
Because wounds aren’t healed by the creation of rhyme
Or the restoration of time, yo, it takes passion
It’s essential to the game’s productivity, that’s why I’m asking
Because all we get now is flashes of heat, clashes and beefs
It’s like we don’t know how to rap anymore
Lyrics should come straight from the core of your soul, yo

[Bridge]
If you're feeling what I'm feeling put your hands in the air
Put your hands in the air (Its coming at ya) (X3)

Put your hands in the air
Put your hands in the air

Its Collideascope, its coming at ya (Yeah!)

[Chorus]
Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
Ashes of the bird building my empire
Bright enough for you to see it

Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
I pray that this flame never goes out
Goes out
Goes out

[Outro Acapella]
Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
Ashes of the bird building my empire
Bright enough for you to see it

Passionate words set the mic on fire
Passion, it burns like its my messiah
I pray that this flame never goes out
Goes out
Goes out
