CHALLENGER'S RAP

• spit that hot shit, out of my mind with it
• rolling up on the corner inna hot box, rolling down the windows
• wafting, drafting, flexing too fuckin hard, homie got a concussion
• realize that i'm no outsider in dis discussion
• so to hell with it, i'ma just talk my talk, translating my thots with instrumentals and percussion
•  
• feeling like zhou enlai on the long march to mount doom, meeting my death at high noon
• chilling out, chilling out under these foreign streetlights at midnight
• eating this street food, making acquaintance with hong-kong street life
• international flights, got me these red eyes, staring into brights, camera flashes, no fright
• losing track of all the dates and lines, alone at the keyboard early and late is my steady fate
•  
• ordering my own copy of the marathon don't stop, gotta gain knowledge and wisdom
• gotta develop courage in all of my decisions, a whole new future to envision and encourage
• stake my soul on it, all ten toes on the track, ready to take a bullet for my loved ones
• so while i have the chance, just want to let you know, life is always, always worth it
•  
• big words and big fights, big guns and big thighs
• ghetto savage running for my life, fleeing from the carnage with my children and wife
• gotta stay sharp in the kitchen, chef's knife with a razor's edge, laser precision
• hella onion and peppers that i slice and dice
• mincing up cilantro, halve the lime and squeeze that lemon, zesty and spice scented
•  
• kinetic with my magnetic attitude, haters keeping calling me rude
• tripping on my nonsense, watching all of this online corn
• thug shit since the moment i was born, check my stripes
• count all the patches that i've worn, jeans shredded and torn
•  
• inspiring poetry into action, fully automatic mathematics
• my stacks so high they multiply, reaching up to god, they touch the sky
• my bankers use calculus to calculate my figures and dimes
• to sum things up, i'm using nine fingers to count these numbers prime.
• got my visage on lincoln's bill, civil gangsta, culturally fluent and quite literate
• so yeah, everyone depends on me, cuz yeah, i am currency.
• freshly minted, check and deposit the total distances that i've sprinted
• yea i'm feeling prismatic, something like hope and optimistic
• so i gotta smoke one up, nine zeros i'm burning up
• balancing complex fractions while cranking up the decibels to shake the heavens, angels twerking
• so wet, storming rain like hurricane! thunder and lightning upon all my bitchz and hoes
• planting seeds, watching money trees grow, protecting and nurturing them while young, golden glow
•  
• stunting on the clock, we in overtime
• laying to rest all the violence in these crimes, murda, murda, murdas got me hella fuckin heated
• got justice burning in my mind, fly ass gangsta with my rhymes
• gotta make peace with all these factions, drastic intuition to meld science
• into fiction, yea, i'm hella killin these bars in my personal dramatic fashion
• blending hard words and vengeful sentiments into smoothies, cuz bae tryna fuck
• she gulpz me down with a passion, whispering in her ear, i'm ready for her lashings
• pride month y'all, have some pride y'all, notice my northern drawl
• cuz yo, i'm fresh on the scene, matador got the bull by the horns in this brawl
• ain't even a competition, straight killin it like grade-school, spell check not needed
• some of you is babies, barely working at a crawl
•  
• still tho, this is english, i oughtta be spittin this shit in arabic and hebrew
• live broadcasting sixty miles outta gaza, missiles strike, coulda drove there, one hour
• yeah, talking my hot shit. boom! drop this muhfuckin, earth-pounding bass riff
• shortie missing three limbs, save one arm
• bap! when real life muhfuckin hits cuz i'ma freak when i speak.
• see the blood dripping down children's faces, screaming for momma.
• dealing with death, i don't miss, all my shots land crit, politicians morally bankrupt
• i don't stress, janitor mopping up the muhfuckin bloody mess, wish it was all completely different
• study up on history so recent, tryna keep my mental space decent
• pressure increasing and my heart beat is racing, fresh kicks, i'm lacing it
• put me to the test, no sweat, top gun, i'm muhfuckin acing it
