Xerxes-the-BFG's Notes
Flow might be a bit hard to follow, I will be recording it at some point (already tried but it fucked up) , but it's pretty speedy, with strong emphasis on the multi's, and a few periods where the speed of a line is increased / decreased to keep it smooth but making sense (not removing, adding words).
Feedback much appreciated, much love!
(2 bars in)See, My metaphysical syllables ,
Will likely leave you feelin' cynical .
Your Blows always seeming so minimal ,
Whilst mine are reaching for the pinnacle ,
They're Bare-ly even (fuckin') Visible ,
I'm so [militantly] original ,
That I'm Mystifying the mythical ,
Leave you Riddled , by a Miracle -
(Like) Moses... using Dirigibles ....? (Pause to let sink in "Hmm"/ flow changes slightly)
See lyrically - I'm invincible , (Slight flow change for breakdown?)
An' all my shit - Oh, so [subliminal] ,
It's like an invisible criminal ,
Who's air's -are all, inequitable .
I'm deeply irking the literal , (cos the)
[Heat] of my words is like [Ethanol](Pure alcohol making you see shit/Flammable) ,
[Frying] your brain, like watchin' episodes -Of dicks, chasing fame, Celebrity Big Bro. ,
Causing heart pain , do you need a stethoscope?
Well that's a Shame, cos I'm on an epic flow , (Slight Pause / Flow Change's to quickfire as the breakdown ends)
And though I didn't Aim, still hopin' that I [smoked] ,
E'ry one of my foes, so just lay there and choke ,
In a mo, when I slow - I'll come, give you a poke .
If you've Croaked? "Oh No!" - then set you afloat ,
In the Sea of Red, which I've already spoke -
Once made such a mess , drowned a whole load of folk ,
All at the Request, of some holy, beardy bloke...
I'll add you to the dead, See , you're nothing but a Mote . (Slows down to emphasise last few bars)
See, Verbally - You got no hope. You in a [tree], swinging by a [rope].
(You) Best believe, This ain't just Ego, It's like [Slavery], morphing into [ghetto's]
(Pause for 1 bar) Cos The B.F.G , is here to [own] the show.
