Cunning Linguist
Folks think I'm a nice guy, to a fault I guess I am, if
those folks only knew deep down I just don't give a
d@mn,
I'm tryin to keep my language clean like crispy
Franklin notes, I am that cunning linguist spittin nifty
antidotes,
that cross you up the Hardaway and leave ya ankles
broke, hot feces exits out my mouth, I got a stanky
throat,
that exhales dragon fire but believe this aint a roast,
there's too much jumpin off and I'm afraid it aint a
joke.
Like women nowadays, I often wonder if it's me, that
sees how some are free to divvy up the wizard
sleeve,
then they don't know just how they came to get the
hivv disease, deny and keep it sweet to give it up to
Nick and Steve.
I get up on my soapbox when I have to drop a jewel,
the niceness gets mistaken like I still won't drop a
fool,
for comin outta pocket, I aint talkin poppin tools, I let
go of the knowledge cause this dude can drop it
smooth.
I'm Harry Belafonte but don't call me Mr. Tibbs, this
poetry just flows in me and what a gift it is,
you may not think my skill's correct but I insist it is,
I'm so unlike the others, verbis not ipissimis.
Confused on what that means? Well I advise you
look it up, vernacular's like stir-fry in a wok; I cook it
up,
and dish out healthy servings, I won't let your brain
cells starve, in executing verbal warfare, yes I am
well armed.
My aim will blow ya head off like Bin Laden, picture
that, the YouTube vids and image will confirm this
vicious fact,
don't need Marines and choppers flying into distant
lands, I'll do you like Waist Deep but they won't find
the missing hand.
My adjectives are ravenous but that's just certain
ones, my scarface resonates of how I kill these
words for fun,
to crush the competition and I do it big like Pun, then
ride off in a Matrix, cunning linguist, I'm The One.
