look you, don't understand I, don't understand either How
the cornballs come to commandeer the receiver Used
to be a time when a rhyme couldn't fly if it wasn't fly Now
you, gotta pray a man doesn't die A
this record is a dangerous thing Nowadays
not, to say your instincts ain't to trust but fame It
ain't to be gotten dick ridin That's
basically what you be on When
you spend breath to scorn Let
the wack dudes be the wack dudes Cuz
the wack dudes can't touch dudes with the real aptitude Rhyme
victory raps that patience is the author of The
wack dudes burn fast like sparklers So
they be out your way in no time And
you be still gettin dap while them suckers see no shine It's
for the best with no blood on your hands Hence
the, hands-free hurt you virtue Patience
