I AM GREAT

I AM GREAT

I'm great! Get it! Don't twist it! Embrace it! Can't erase it!
I'm great! whether its fate or not,
if cool is the temperature then I'd be hot.
I'm great! They debate. Get irate. Start the hate parades,
celebrating year and years of hateration in the hater nation,
trying to impeach the occupation of greatness.
Wait! Rush! Hush! Speak! Stand up! Take a seat. Then repeat.
I'm great like tony the tiger cause they are frosted flakes,
with their icicle glares. Freaky like the care bears' stare.
Mommy I'm scared. That's only way to be brave, my dear. Through fear you say.

I'm great! So great, in fact, you name your children after me,
then rearrange the pronunciation because it's too much to live up to.
Right, Jesus? Si. And you say.
I'm great! And it is blasphemous to say my name
out of context of sacred paths towards the highway to heaven.
I am rock legend! And congregation shouts

I'm great! Build your house out of stick, stones, straw or whatever.
Through turbulent weather, bad wolfs, vengeful hawks,
my foundation holds any abode, a la mode, or a la carte, in your heart, you know that

I'm great! Can't spectate anymore, gotta kick in doors.
Wage war for peace of mind; defuse land mines,
planted by enemy spies. Who know I'm indestructible from perimeter attacks.
So they sneak in close, and stick doubt in like a tack.
But I am not the board. I am the wall. I am the great wall.
Graffiti tagged with portraits of my conquest over fears, jeers, jabs, and burns.
I grow. I learn. I teach. I yearn, I earn every battle mark.
My medals? My scars. For all who impugn my claim and jest from afar.
You deny, but they reply,
I'm great! I say, we are!

Crazy House Scene


 

Oh you hard Now, Thug style, no smile, infantile, man child

Quick to throw a tantrum at the slightest infraction

Cracking your ice demeanor, melting with this heater

Smashing through your tweeters, I feel you getting weaker

Got your beaker of liquid brave, here comes the rage, talking loud

Set the stage, start the play.

You act mean in this scene, to be seen as dollar king,

Drinking like you kill bills cause money at a damn thing

Change, now act like you slang rocks like sling shots,

Got Omar glocks, at your chop shop, with them fat knots

Strange, no one knows your name, or realized that you came

This ain't cheers, no one cares, why you're here, or what you claim

Can't claim pimp, just cause you limp and set trip

You play hard on asphalt; your street cred is default

With no fed plot, to snatch your gwop, you better stop lying

Hawks out, caught the wind, of when you send bullets flying

Not tough enough for fisticuffs, call bluffs like debt collectors

Check your vectors and your angles 'fore you tangle with the

Highest Degree, Oh you better hear me clearly

Not your average pedigree of Spoken word emcees

I'm hard like front bus seats, of the mid 50's

Like them fire hosed streets, and them canine teeth

With my bark the might of my bite, Charleston chew gats

Spit back, bullets, to make you Dance Sucka, Move, Sucka

I hit like the KnunChuckas, You Don't want to test

The photons I possess, harness by direct sunlight exposure

A warrior as king, Crown on the front lines

With soldiers on all sides, we revolt tonight

So no bullshit with the peanut gallery

Keep it chill and speak casually

Don't need unjust fatalities

Like Oscar Grant in Cali

If somebody think they got something to say

Wish the punk would try to bring it your way

They know that there is no recess today

When we step in the house, they know we don't play
