Biography

US hip hop group with two members from Philadelphia, PA and one from Camden, New Jersey. The group was founded by two high school friends rapper [a=Vinnie Paz] (Vincenzo Luvineri) and producer / DJ [a=Stoupe The Enemy Of Mankind] (Kevin Baldwin). In 1999 the New Jersey rapper [a=Jus Allah] (James Bostick) joined the group to record the 2nd studio album by JMT, [Link] but left shortly after for reasons that remain unexplained. The track "The Rebuilding" (2006) marked his unofficial return to JMT since the split, but made a full fledged return aside [a=Vinnie Paz] for the 6th studio album, [Link]. Kwestion was a replacement for JMT's previous tour DJ, Drew Dollars, who is no longer affiliated with the group.

LYRICS

[Verse 1:]
I have the killing gene, I have machine guns and guillotines
I'm the gorilla of Philistines, I'm living the killer's dream
I just let the victim kick and scream
Get the blood and smithereens out with Mr. Clean
Separate your figurine into different dumpsters
I'm getting hungrier and I ain't getting any younger
Niggas should've killed me, now the wait's longer
And the A-capability made me stronger
I'm a die in service, I serve a higher purpose
I ain't nervous of what surfaces from wire searches
Mom sits inside a church reciting Bible verses
I'm entitled to idol my homicidal urges
I don't prefer help, getting to the death quotients
It works by itself set in perpetual motion
But I remove it, there's some probability to use it
Cause I might lose it, present company included

[Chorus:]
The street light is the only light to ever shine
Kill devils with metal from the Beretta nine
If I shine I shine heavy metal grind
Must be out your fucking mind, never question mine

The street light is the only light that ever shine
Kill devils with metal from the Beretta nine
If I shine I shine heavy metal grind
Must be out your fucking mind to ever question mine

[Verse 2:]
You should never upset the man, the bullets the size of Pepsi cans
I am jolly while y'all are doing the best you can
Me and Jus Allah lying and the rest are lambs
I am possibly atrocity in West Sudan
I'm humanism, I'm through the prism of western man
I'm pugilism, I'm voodooism, I bless the sand
My hands are made of titanium, I could wreck a van
Lazarus, I am from Damascus and I am Sham
I ain't letting go until the clip is done
Y'all offbeat, every word I speak hit the drum
The most beautiful thing to me is a glistening gun
I find y'all is entertainment while I'm sipping rum
And if I ever fall on hard luck
I'll put some white on the street like a salt truck
Cause I ain't trying to be hungry again
With these lowlife motherfucking dummies again, never again god

[Chorus:]
The street light is the only light to ever shine
Kill devils with metal from the Beretta nine
If I shine I shine heavy metal grind
Must be out your fucking mind, never question mine

The street light is the only light that ever shine
Kill devils with metal from the Beretta nine
If I shine I shine heavy metal grind
Must be out your fucking mind to ever question mine
