| Yo, I’m the epitome of sick. |
| I’ll live in infamy
|
| Spitting a written history depicting my vision vividly
|
| The industry’s clearly tripping when I start a movement
|
| Like Timothy Leary giving LSD to Harvard students
|
| A sharpshooting marksman when the target’s moving
|
| I’m a fusion of the greatest parts from humans and a Martian mutant
|
| Toured the world, got cigars from Cubans
|
| Then sparked a doob in Amsterdam with Asians saying, «Fahrvergnügen»
|
| Tomorrow’s blueprint. |
| Today, my bars and mic connect
|
| Ahead of its time, spitting rhymes I haven’t started writing yet
|
| I’m the archetype. |
| I’m not an artist like the rest
|
| I’m picture-perfect without Photoshopping dark and light effects
|
| And, yes, I got regrets. |
| Understand I’m sharing that
|
| But kept my guard up longer than Buckingham in bearskin hats
|
| I should open up and trust my fans to care, in fact
|
| But I really need to know what the fuck this man is staring at
|
| I’m sick of hearing that voice stuck inside my head
|
| Like Simon says, «Diabolic, let the virus spread»
|
| Still the illest cat—alive or dead. |
| The raps we have-
|
| -‘ll drive you crazier than Travis Bickle in a taxi cab
|
| Got these tacky fad rappers breaking out the lab
|
| 'Cause heads are fake like paper mâché to escape from Alcatraz
|
| Countless fags thinking their computer screen is armor
|
| Transforming to superheroes on the web like Peter Parker
|
| I won’t be a part of that. |
| This the Art of Rap
|
| From artists prophesized in carvings scratched on artifacts
|
| Neanderthals drawing me rocking a starter hat
|
| While aliens from Mars attack as the moon stars collapse
|
| I have read your manuscript, my friend. |
| You plan on rising from peasant to king.
|
| You are quite dangerous. |
| I have just the potion for you
|
| Now maybe I’m just tripping. |
| Or what have I been sipping?
|
| Summoned to the other side by souls of mummified Egyptians
|
| Seeing my forefathers love the stuff that I’ve been spitting
|
| And respect the drive of a guy stuck in my position
|
| Those I’m governed by try corrupting my decisions
|
| Like correction officers who smuggle drugs inside a prison
|
| But I have risen, reached the top of Mount Olympus
|
| And cast Zeus to the outer limits somewhere south of Venice
|
| A Menace like O-Dog, but learned some new tricks
|
| My bars shine—now the dark side of the moon’s lit
|
| Bright enough to see the aliens in cruise ships
|
| And differences in the landing filmed by Stanley Kubrick
|
| Imagine you mixed Nas, Wu, and Q-Tip
|
| With Fu-Schnicks and Eminem on Rawkus—I'm what you get
|
| Now the shoe fits a dude strapping two sticks
|
| Of dynamite with the fuse lit to your new kicks
|
| And I don’t give two shits. |
| I’m dropping science here
|
| Superhuman in disguise, I am not as I appear
|
| I’m the Viking warlord atop the biosphere
|
| Who could body cops in riot gear with rocks and flying spears
|
| My career’s the return of God that Mayans feared
|
| When I appear on vinyl, your tribe’ll clock the final years
|
| Shots collide with beers and I’m a shock to eyes and ears
|
| The legend of my predecessors, getting props from pioneers
|
| And to my peers, I’m Superman but sinister
|
| I’ll rule the land from Hoover Dam to the Yucatan Peninsula
|
| A visitor from outer space taking human form
|
| Detonating a fusion bomb in the booth when music’s on
|
| Ahahahahaha. |
| I see you are not of this world. |
| You may have gotten the best of
|
| me this time. |
| I’ll see you on the other side |
