It's Goin' Down by The X-Ecutioners feat Linkin Park

Somebody asked me if I had to listen to one song for the rest of my life, what would it be? Naturally, I knew it would be something to do with Linkin Park and/or Mike Shinoda. But earlier I saw this video again and I knew that this would be the song. I would never get sick of this.
Honest to God, I have no idea how Shinoda comes up with these lyrics...but they are...indescribable.

It's Goin' Down


It's going down,
The rhythm projects 'round the next sound,
Reflects the complex hybrid dialect now,
Detects the mesh of many elements compressed down,
The melting pot of a super-futuresque style,
The combination of the vocal caress,
With lungs the gasp for breath from emotional stress,
With special effects,
And a distorted collage,
Carefully lodged between beats of rhythmic barrage.

It's going down,
A logical progression on the timeline,
The seperation 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 the world to see,
LP and X-Men to the 10th degree. (It's goin down)
Nobody in the world is safe,
When we melt down the wax in your record crate (It's going down)
Put it out for the world to see
LP and X-Men to the 10th degree (It's goin down)
Nobody in the world is safe
When we melt down the wax in your record crate (It's going down)

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 the weapons swinging right from the chin,
To elevate of mental states long gone with the wind,
To defend men from 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 it steadily,
It's going down sub-terrestrial high,
I rhyme regiment that's calling the shots,
Exectution of colloborative plots,
Ready to bring the seperation of style to a stop.

It's going down,
A logical progression on the timeline,
The seperation 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.

X-men 'bout to blast off world wide
X-men 'bout to blast off world wide
'Bout to blast off world wide
And you do it like this
Just like this

Put put...put it up
I said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down
Put put...put it up
I said it goes like this
And you do it like this
It's going down
