Lyrics Back to the Drawing Board - Chemo, Jehst

Back to the Drawing Board

You’re way out of your depth
Last dregs on my coffee
Blueprints spread out on the desk
Stress ball in a clenched fist
Pencil behind my ear
Now let’s organise this here
We strategise for the king-size share
Living on solid air
Ain’t nothing fair
I bare knuckle box the beat with bleeding fists
Walking the ledge of the deepest abyss
I’m the hand reaching out of the speaker
Snatching images out of the ether
Smashing lyricists out of the picture
This shit is off the Richter
They say I’m off my rocker
I say I’m number one chief rocka
Lord of the under cranberry cheap vodka
Make a rapper disappear like Jimmy Hoffa
Killing off all the wack
Emcees smoke crack
Need to get the monkey off of your back
The wait’s like…
You owe me like a monkey for that
Money plus VAT
Splashing with the muckiest rap
My flow’s gutter
I strap a verse
Burst like a black puddle
You’re a duck like Jemima you lack muscle
Blud, I’m knocking out your spar
Couldn’t give a fuck if Tommy found Allah
I’m still propping up the bar
And I’m going to get mine
Insha’Allah
Give an inch
I’m going to take a mile and a half
Spectators say my style is bizarre
That’s weird
I’m on the pirate tip like Blackbeard
While you’re swimming in the mainstream
Bikini-clad
Rappers borrowing my «Swag» but I need it back
You’ll get beaten black and blue
I’m classic like Run DMC in the Adidas shoe
Got a plan?
Better carry that through
To the T
I cross theM and dot the I’s
That’s me, real thorough with the rhymes and the beats
Some kind of disease how we’re spreading on the streets
Like Nutella on toast
Quick to serve a fella like Federer then tell him I’m ghost
Gone
Like the DJ
I give your girl a little E&J
She hit me off with the…
Rappers are sleeping
Get your PJs
Ain’t nothing sweet these days
We’re running hundred metre relays
It’s longevity
We’re never falling short
Ceremonial gown, scroll, and mortar board
Sending emcees back to the drawing board
Back to the drawing board
