The Dusty Foot Philosopher |
Yo, just imagine, like whistling down a desert or some shit |
Don’t this make you wanna swing like monkeys outta trees? |
I don’t got no parameters |
This amateur’s famous |
All you fame getters |
Hate caterers |
Our main names are date of births |
On a later verse |
Make a nigga play reverse (move backwards) |
Marching with some soldiers here |
We coming over there |
The kind of niggas soldiers fear |
You just gotta stare |
You ain’t got no option (no) |
Please relax son |
I’m taking over like drug dealer cars to auctions |
Oh these are hungry men |
These are angry men |
Heard you got a lot of guts |
They’ll call your bluff |
Your shit is laughable |
Why you rapping oh |
Why don’t you just wrap sandwiches to earn a capital? |
And half the shit that you spit |
Ain’t even that sick |
If you was doing my physical you couldn’t have my shit |
Back to my verse flow |
I don’t get shit yo |
My skills so bright when I spit my lips glow |
The dusty foot philosopher |
Ripping up kilometers |
Winking at you officers da dum da dum da dum |
The dusty foot philosopher |
Sicking up the monitor |
Waking up the auditors da dum da dum da dum |
And I’ve seen war and some |
Survived the slaughter son |
Kids play cops and robbers and not with the water guns |
So yeah yeah picture me |
And big brother Lee |
Walking through the fire |
We came to claim our victory |
And I roll with a harder pen |
I might start a trend |
Beat down a wack MC cause you know there’s a lot of them |
Wait till my shit crashes |
Rip asses |
Women who give me neck suffer from whiplashes |
I frighten the masses |
Cause I’m that nasty |
I heard to get a deal you had to give lap dances |
This shit is serious |
Sincere it is |
The people wanted something real |
Well yo here it is |
My rhymes push records back like a belly button dirty rutting |
I got stiff neck steady nuttin' it ain’t nothing |
I got the track laid like I’m fucking |
The only balls you got is made outta cotton |
This is what you waited for |
Glad you stayed the chorus |
Cause a lot of rappers is getting treated like lady whores |
And I don’t like Babylon |
I don’t like your song |
I don’t like hearing that fake accent from Dylon |
The industry commentator |
Fuck it I’m a hater |
My mind is like your life straight up cause it’s made up |
I’m strolling like babies with big ass ladies (yeah) |
That rock more fellas than ten thousand daisies |
Harder than harbouring Bin Laden inside the bottom compound with Donald |
Rumsfield and Bush blood |
Moving along like people who don’t want it |
Even if I had jewels I’d be the type who don’t run it |
They call me dusty cause my feet have been through a lot |
The wisdom of my survival that’s just due to Allah |
So I’m not gonna sit here and whine like crushed grapes |
My mind leaves you speechless like duct tape |
