Intro : Take a sit at the Tablo Rondo / We’re all waiting for you / Lancelot, pass me the Holy Grail
Verse 1 : Pour me up some mo’ Neo-Codion / Analyzin’ symbols, Champollion / Slowin’ me down like Jerry Sloan, John Stockton and Karl Malone / Home alone, Joe Pesci tryin’ to sneak in / THC be heatin’ / Creepin’ into cells / Smokin’ my head to hell / Yeah, I need some help / And what do I do ? / Play some Badu / Chop the bamboo / Sit and think like Hindus / Then I’m talkin with Zeus / Guzzlin’ juice / Puzzlin’ routes to drive off the troops / Mind off the roots / Recruits got boots in the mud, keep slippin’ / Boast about a coochie and a hug, keep sippin’ / Samurai ties professionalizin’ my rise / Fightin’ a body of lies / That constanty modifies from head to thighs / Head, body, head like Mickey Ward / I can’t hit no more / Hand me a sword / I can’t afford to desert this war
Chorus : Who can define, who can define, who can define me ?/ Who can define me ? Who can just find ? Who can just find the Holy Grail ? / Holy Grail, Holy, Holy Grail / Who can just find ? (x2) / Who can define me ? (x2) / Who can define ? Who can just find the Holy Grail ? / Holy Grail, Huh, Holy Grail / Who can just find ? Who can just find ? / Holy Grail / Who can define me ? (x3)
Verse 2 : Terrorize like Tommy Pitera’s eyes / No pity for an error / I stay on my own, no gemini / Only trust my seminar / Pigeons, we send ‘em off, messages in the mouth / Cough in their coffin, soften instead of solvin’ / Heaven high, hell low, deadly horizontal / Tell me (x3) cuando / Raekwon gonna knock on the door /
Monopoly like Monsanto / Runnin’ bare feet like an Oromo /
Throw it deep, Tony Romo / Steppin’ on snakes with skin that glow /
Bones, we blow, arrows in the marrow / Road is narrow, can’t roll /
Facin’ Sol Campbell / Soul under the Kangol /
Where can I go ? Where can I go ?
Charly, where do I go ? Where do I go ? (x2) /
Wind blowin’ open the gates to my goals /
And when I’m in, behind they close
Chorus
