@theprofessor,
Erm .... can’t think of anythin’ to start this with
So I’ll just kick a loose style from my lips
So loose you’ll need resin to harden it
‘Til it stays in the same place and goes hard as dick
Nobody knows the rhymes I’m gonna kick ‘til I say ‘em
The way that I make ‘em sound slick when I spray ‘em
Smooth talk like I do to chicks ‘fore I lay ‘em
Many days have passed away, and yet I’m still sayin’
these verses like a sermon, call me a vicar or a preacher
Or better yet like a lesson, call me a principal or teacher
English is my subject which is why I’m good with words
Whoever would have thought that I would rhyme so good a verse
So divine just like church when you’re goin’ every Sunday?
So rejoice my good talent, man, my flow is like a fun day
When I blow ‘em out like candles and cut ‘em up like spongecakes
So sweet and enticin’ like a chocolate flavoured sundae
One day, I hope I make it there through my talent
Then someday, my flow will rake in cheers by the thousands
They’ll love me, the hoes will shed me tears by the ounces
And they won’t be cried in buckets or in pouches – far from it!
So I guess I’ll keep spittin’ as a straight hobby
From my home to the streets to the workplace lobby
I’ll keep castigatin’ these dumb ones who fob me
Keep on beratin’ these young guns who try me
Hip-hop is my passion and fashion
As opposed to a grunger who keeps smashin’ and trashin’
That’s just what happens – when music and poetry come together
And I don’t need to have ‘North Face’ sewn across my sweater
Or wear Lugz boots or smoke one or two joints
Or play basketball with Jordan just to score a few points
There’s only me and a lot of you boys
Whose objective in life is to hunt and destroy
Any ************ out there who decides to cause a fuss
Even though it’s not their fault, you just fight and rough ‘em up
Cut ‘em up and **** ‘em up and stick a dagger through their gut
‘Cause you love to stick the knife in and keep stabbin’ ‘til they’re cut
And they have to call an ambulance to dash and pick ‘em up
Paramedics breathe inside ‘em – even that isn’t enough
There’s nothin’ they can do to save ‘em, man, they’re runnin’ short of luck
And the thugs that got away with it, they just don’t give a ****
It’s time for action, let’s “Heal The World” like Michael Jackson
Make this world a better place for all Asian, white and black friends
Before these violent-ass men put more kids and guys in caskets
All ‘cause of this silent bastard’s violent actions
And I’m askin’, how did this ever escalate
From talkin’ about myself to gang violence in the inner state?
I’m just a common guy tryin’ to opinionate
There’s no reason why I shouldn’t set it straight
I’m Illustraight after all, and I just illustrate
Pictures that run around my mind like a dinner plate
Or a roundabout or cars drivin’ round an interstate
In circles, parallelograms, tri’s and other different shapes
How has this guy ever been so great?
How does things revolve around I? Wait a minute, mate!
Methinks people talk a lot in my presence
I find it ridiculous and snide, they can’t hint a take
Or take a hint, take a whiff of the gossip powder
Take a whiff more then they can talk **** for hours
But all I do is ignore it and doubt ‘em
Keep settlin’ scores ‘til I score about a thousand
Like hittin’ switches, playin’ a game of pinball
Hittin’ those bumpers in order to gain a big score
My mind ain’t electronic – I’m not a Gameboy
Methinks you’re playin’ games with this boy
I aim and deploy words until your brain is destroyed
Boy, quit playin’ ‘cause my brain ain’t a toy!
I must have spit about 68 bars
And that was the sixty-ninth one
I feel like spittin’ 68 more
Like a finger up the pussy or a Pantene shampoo, I penetrate more
Into your head ‘til your brain can’t digest no more
**** like this can’t get ever more raw
Raw to the floor, raw like Reservoir Dogs
Open you up like an Avensis 4-door
When I go hard, I stomp the floor like an elephant
You abstain from messin’ with me like you were celibate
Looks like you just spurned the hand of fellowship
So don’t expect me to mellow it
Because my temper is - uncontrollable, and as hot as a kettle gets
When you put water in it and switch it on
When I flip the switch, they know that it is on
You would know it when you see the power light flicker strong
This is just somebody, who picks some **** to gossip
I express these things so calmly you would think I was impassive
I’m not tryin’ to be a Sheikh, I don’t live in Abu Dhabi
It’s what I do – after all, this is just a hobby
