[Intro]
I knew I was being threatened
Do you think it's worth holding out'
I mean I've heard some pretty ugly things about those guys
Ugly stories
(electric guitar starts)
"Watch them flee.. watch them flee" *scratches*
"Rap up" *scratches*
"Watch them flee" *scratches*
"Hip-Hop hits" *scratches*
"And you do it like this"
(Mike Shinoba)
[Verse 1]
It's going down
The rhythm projects 'round the next sound
Reflects the complex hybrid dialect now
Detect the mesh of many elements compressed down
The melting pot of a super-futureesque style
The combination of a vocal caress
With lungs that gasp for breath
From emotional stress
With special effects
And a distorted collage
Carefully lodged between beats of rhythmic barrage
[Pre-Chorus](2x)
It's going down
The logical progression on a the timeline
The separation narrowed down to a fine line
To blur the edges so they blend together properly
Take you on an audible odyssey
Now it's going down
Put it out for all the world to see
LP and x-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record crate
[Chorus](2x)
"Put put.. put it up" *scratches*
"I said it goes like this" *scratches*
"And you do it like this" *scratches*
It's going down
(Mike Shinoba)
[Verse 2]
Once again it is
Composed sentences all together venomous
The four elements of natural force
Projected daily through the sound of the source
Everybody on board as we blend
The sword with the pen
The mightiest of weapons
Swinging right from the chin
The elevate of mental states
Long gone with the wind
To defend men for shoddy imitation pretends
It's going down
Style Assimilation readily
Trekking through the weaponry
Of the pure pedigree
Cleverly seeing through whatever is ahead of me
Whatever the weather be
We invent the steadily
It's going down to sub-terrestrial high
I rhyme regiment that's calling the shots
Execution of collaborative plots
Ready to bring the separation of style to a stop
[Pre-Chorus]
It's going down
The logical progression on a the timeline
The separation narrowed down to a fine line
To blur the edges so they blend together properly
Take you on an audible odyssey
Now it's going down
Put it out for all the world to see
LP and x-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record crate
[Chorus](2x)
"Put put.. put it up" *scratches*
"I said it goes like this" *scratches*
"And you do it like this" *scratches*
It's going down
(X-Ecutioners)
"X-men 'bout to blast of world wide" *scratches*
Yo it's request only *scratches*
"X-men 'bout to blast of world wide" *scratches*
It's built from scratch
Album in stores soon
"'Bout to blast off world wide" *scratches*
"And you do it like this"
It's going down
Put it out for all the world to see
LP and x-men to the 10th degree
Nobody in the world is safe
As we melt down the wax in your record crate
[Chorus](2x)
"Put put.. put it up" *scratches*
"I said it goes like this" *scratches*
"And you do it like this" *scratches*
It's going down
Like this...

Well if he plays the guitar, how come he's not in the credits? Did they leave him out by mistake or something?

this is a good song, it shows that Mike Shinoda is better off without that fag Chester. Better than all Linkin Park songs.

Or maybe the signature guitar riffs are played by the X-Ecutioners. Lots of techno/rap groups, like Fatboy Slim, Air, and X-Ecutioners, usually record musical sounds and use it as backgrounds.

I was wrong. It turns out that (for some reason) Linkin Park guitarist Brad Delson was playing the riffs in this song. It sounds like he's copycatting (I hope that's a real word) Wayne Static's riffs. Therefore, Delson's riffs got us confused with Static's. Oh, fuck...
