[Oatmeal] How many emcees must get dissed? Style upon style, main points get missed I play a riff, to lead my own boat into a cliff Crews drift, wholes songs composed float in limbo Fo sho the invisible, souled separate like some syllables [Raw J] I'm from that crew you never heard That cat that caught absurd looks, glances... Whole perspective is truly unconcerned with sh** that don't concern me Knowin thangs is topsy-turvy I stay uninvolved if it don't evolve Past the point of dissolving in 2 feet of flood water Holler out that I ain't sh** and I won't disagree Cause I'm still over here workin on me you see [Side B] Man I'm just a stranger to most, but the least you'd expect to Hear jawzin on the mic about some nonsense My economics got demands that ain't been met by supply Shoppin blank resumes cuz these sk**s dont apply... The unknown, unestablished, from the bottom of the totem But testicle tarzans still be swingin on the scrotum Even though I ain't got nothin to show yet And there's a lot of thangs I just don't know yet [HOOK] [Raw J] I'm at the upper echelon spots with nuthin but rags You flossed out but brotha please tuck in them price tags Just tryin to slide like ice under a puck An oxymoron emphasizing how you dont give a f**!!! [Side B] Fool, I had a dream like Martin Luther the Ling That one day I'd be somebody... Hopin these songs would move more than just yo bodies... Damn these big boodies got me losin my focus And flashin on my duties, but even if time permitted My credit won't approve, space is limited But always got some room to improve Side biz the Joe Schmoe tryin to stay above the average With new school dropouts replacin old school graduates [Tope] It's fame or shame in this game, dudes or dames I run my mouth over this mic but it seems like I'm runnin in place And W-2's in my form when I claim Plus this street hustle... man it ain't easy.. I got the paints to freelance Gave up the freestyle stance... It ain't sh** at first glance just wait and see Of you got half the vision, then that's more than enough We out the roughs into the light I'm soon to be I'm soon to be [HOOK] [Side B] See I ain't even made or been paid (NOTHIN YET) And y'all ain't even seen or heard (NOTHIN YET) Cuz all I'm earnin stripes, so dont be surprised if you see me On the block slangin these at a playa price [Tope] I'm wearin yesterdays apparel, got a barrel of bills Fresh fish underwater but I was born with no gills No thrills amongst a school of fish just students of life I swim polluted waters in search for a bite... without the hook Without the strings attached, its down the hatch Tope 1 be the bad apple of the batch... It's like that when it comes to chasin a worm... I'm gettin burned like a tabasco home perm [Raw J] And I'm the R to the S, brotha you guess the rest But hangman games will draw blanks though That's fo'shango... Ain't gonna say that everybody knows who I is But when you see me collar-poppin doin the electric slide You'll be like "this brotha gets down for his" Didn't pay good money just to stand on the wall If you're too good to dance with me I'm like "fu*k ALL OF YALL!"
