It's stated that I rhyme like God and I ?? like a poet One hand ?? the other like Lady styles like Bela Karolyi Warm hearted, cold I write like left I left opposites right they left off My rights left right-wing as to right beside me Left my right hand man he left what's right And I reserve the right to write I'm free 'Cause I free styles my pen, That ya'll if you freestyled all day long Literally, this literature designed for one Stays on the emcee, that I be the emcee's emcee 'Cause I am saying what I am when my mind's blinking My open even when my eyes' drinking I's a socializer, but more so with those Ask why's a music so misused it's self contained And not self I myself contemplate this I make myself complain Shall my raps maintained, wrapped in cellophane 'Til they're unwrapped by human Emphatically no, so I rap I go And let it up in your brain like a tumor
