[Canibus]
Yo, Houston to Earth, watch the Ripper crucify you with verse
My urethra to ya uvula quenches your thirst
Put your flames out with dry desert dirt where leopards lurk
Lock your soul down with an esoteric weapon search
Strap a bomb to one of your labels record clerks
And activate it as soon as they get to work
Ring the alarm, red alert, n***a it gets worse
Bypa** security networks with select words
Megahertz make nebulas reverse till your head burst
Call the press first and ask them who got the best verse
Give me the respect I deserve
If you are what you eat, it's obvious I can't eat what I'm worth
Y'all n***as eat p**y and burp
The other half of y'all s** dick till your jaws and ya neck hurt
When you address me n***a end your sentence with, "Sir"
Critics went berserk they ain't even heard my best work
See I broke into the mind by
Quietly going by their eardrum walls and hotwired they skulls
Yeah I earned the name Canibus, but what did it cost?
Battle rap is nothing but a serendipitous who*e
n***as probably like, what the f** he dissing him for?
Yeah he dissed me first but you was never informed
I'm one of the top five n***a, my sh** is tight n***a
You heard it right n***a, I rock mics n***a
But the limelight isn't where I belong
The top four don't even look in the mirror no more
If they did I'd be in the mirror looking back at 'em
Ready to grab them, kidnap them and put them on my album
I rip jackers, Rip the time/space fabric
Loop the future with the past tense looking for patterns
Eradicate Africans that sold Africans to Saxons
And forced black men to pay taxes
Attack a wack b**h with counter tactics
Split your bullet proof cha**is in half with a rapid Gatling
Keep firing at you till you trapped in
Non-combatants scramble for helicopter extraction
While I'm back at Fort Bragg bragging
How I tortured them f*ggots and stabbed them with Rip the Jacker daggers
Slay dragons with old pa**ages from black magic man*scripts
I found in the cabinet written in Arabic
Translate to characters one by one like Arafat tarot cards suggest
I make terrorist threats through your stereo sets
Various anthrax carriers sending sarin to the press
With an imaginary address, Cani's the best
Untraceable, your pictures unpaintable, canvas that's wet
Let me dry you off wit some of this fire I spit
26 years old n***a look how I spit
A microphone fiend since I was like 14
My Cuban uncle used to sell c**aine, OK?
I'm reloaded, you f**ing wit the wrong MC
Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease to the whole industry
Potent as Hennessey that was distilled in Tennessee
One shot scrambles your memory indefinitely
Nowadays a hundred bars ain't impressive to me
You stepping to me n***a do it intelligently
You wanna battle or you wanna f**ing wrestle wit me
You ain't better than me, you just got an obsession wit me
Canibus hybrid, the cake icing of rhymeness
As I grow older I get colder like the declining climate
Of earth's environment, I'm entirely tireless
Rhymes come from my higherness of wireless dialect
Scientists from Sirius B designed my specs
Astrally project during heightened s**, chakras connect
Doctors inspect what they can't possibly interpret yet
That's why they revert to threats
They curse and throw fits
They like immature earth cadets looking like Captain Kirk in a dress
Lyrically I step on you, rip on you
Then I defecate what I just digested on you
I'm better than you, I'm better than you, I'm better than you
Just to get the chequered flag I'll put the pressure on you
Put the extra effort on you write a motherf**ing letter to you
And your editors too, threatening you
Detective check your mail and your messages too
You can take this verbal slashing that I left as a clue
Execute the type of wickedness the devil approves
Which basically means I can do whatever with you
I'm a rap music mutant with a cool name
Misconstrue fame, but I spit butane
Blue flames out giant CO2 tanks
Demagnetize memory banks, enhanced, advanced
One of a kind like modern man's retina scans
Quick as a glance and flickers from kerosene lamps
What you want me to break first? Your jaw or your grill?
What type of spit you want from me? Sparkling or still?
Study law, Yale draw up my own deals
So the longer they resist me the stronger I feel
Spread the ganglia from Tanzania
To the flats of East Anglia, give up, you can't keep up
The man eater in a wife beater
Spreading Typhoid Fever through mic receivers with light reverb
Type in the right keywords, I might emerge
Takes a really nice n***a to incite these nerds
n***as wanna see the gully in me, keep f**ing with me
Never under pressure, I keep the pressure under me
Burn the weed
Drop a freestyle on the internet then watch n***as burn the CD
Upload a picture of your mug getting DP'd
I'm one size away from 13, believe it she peed
I'm the illest and its gonna be that way forever
Word of mouth is good but a mouth of words is better n***a
No body gets sicker than the Ripper
