Who Rotten 'Em |
One of the greatest rapper, walk — I’m sayin' |
In the field makin’my brick without hayin' |
Mad busy kid, nah whip cut here |
You, boy, drop your bundle bring your butt in A soldier, what I do to that hood? |
Are you that slave everybody tellin’me rap good? |
Calm down, not goin’ta murder ya Clean yourself, Pharoah said he wanna have a word with ya My mom, pop, look concerned |
After takin’a shower, dress and returned |
The soldier, kinda on the dark end |
Brought me and the motherfucking palace was barking |
In the midst, a poet, dryin' |
Pharoah and his girl being entertained by him |
Motherfucker got some nerve |
said Bring slave forward, let me observe |
He asked me my name and start badger me Ricky, what?, 'Ricky, your majesty' |
And bowed because I had to, |
Kick a rap that shit better sound fat too |
Who rotten 'em |
Plaits swing, but have you forgotten 'em |
Biggest big shouts since King Tut and 'em (who rotten 'em) |
Kids ville, motherfucker couldn’t sit still |
All bitches is open off Rick’s grill (who rotten 'em) |
Definetly exort, any stalkin' |
Hawk gawkin’at silk fabrics when I’m walkin (who rotten 'em) |
Fondle with right, yet, spec get delighted |
All a that jungle shit, whites rap |
He’s fat queen said to the pharoah excited and |
did seem obvious the rap delighted him |
Then start banging on appliance (Yes your honour?) |
Send this other rapper to the lions (Please, no!) |
Pleaing with merit, if you kill him for my sake |
My raps will do the spirit |
'Please let him live, I prefer that' |
OK, well, send him where this slave used to work at Do or die jammin’me into |
Even was allowed to move the family in too |
Any beat better rap good on Even gave me mad nice outfits to put on Knowing that my rap stlye bumped many |
And expecting some important company |
The king visits where I was put to write |
Slave, you’re behind, better rap real good tonight |
In other words, lay your mack down |
'Cause these cats not the one to sound wack round |
So that night, when they summers be them clapping |
Took a deep breath and then began rapping |
Who rotten 'em |
Tryin’a find out what excite, what I write, |
What ignite with |
Lion never once tried to bite Rick |
Excusely, assumed to meek, refuse to greet |
A smoother geek, just move ya feet |
Shocked all dippin’and stoppin' |
Even slave owner wanted me to whip a man, fucker |
Shakin’any prison, kickin’back, sick of crap |
And sista breakin’when a nigger rap |
Well it was obvious the raps unpluggin' |
Dignitaries spat wine out they mouth, buggin' |
This they never heard that type a tactic |
Gold sandles all over their fat steps |
One dignitary over what man said |
I’ll give you half the eastern border if you sell him |
Back at the rest spot to nap a bit |
Mom! |
Pop! |
They delighted with the rapper did |
Son, my mom said sweepin’up |
That lunatic’ll kill you if you don’t keep it up What’s wrong with you, Son, I’m not scornin’you |
Leave your best for a rainy day, I’m warnin’you |
Ripped my ego apart |
So I set upon a mission to change the king heart |
'Sire, whippin don’t pay off |
A lot more done you give a nigger one day off' |
He took my advice, 'stead a yell again |
Sir noticed that my input was accurate intelligence |
That type meant ta stripe, kids |
Even after he died, I still write raps like this |
Who rotten 'em |
All teacher and scholar try proceed me, believe me I am all culture that you need be And superior juice to abuse, I choose |
Use words racist slave owner used to Sandwich known crook, redbone hook too |
Got his own land, which you’re known look to Not only ass wipes, swept side kick |
Shocker and them niggers even try to dress like Rick |
