Finally, here for your perusal and right of first refusal....Deep Dickollective's lyric page. It's really cool that we have an opportunity to do this and really enjoyable for me in light of the many emcees I've heard over the years who had the most amzing lyrics, but so seldom included transcriptions in their CD liners. This page is but one of many more to come, as lyrics for solo and side projects by D/DC members and other Sugartruck artist will appear here as well. Be on the lookout, and feel free to make suggestions ( or complain.....we are here for you really....we listen :)) with regard to stuff you wanna see.

Thanks for your interest and continued support

BURNOUT
(Ampu/Goff/Kalamka/West)
2000 Deep Dickollective LLC

'You must create in the face of haters'
is not the label's name, still if you're able to do the same
bring something strange to the table
and play nice host and pass out napkins.
Since you call yourself Captain,
that means you make shit happen.
I called out a product;
if you're down with me, don't buy it.
Collective struggle up kayak: fuck the current.
Burpin' from the swallowed scrotum curd
of this here spoken word champ called Ampu.
Goddamn you all to Acheron.
Local vocalist in the role of the socialist
to your vampire that can't retire
from the typecasting of a mirror, unseen to hearer;
come clear on what your mashin' from.
On some secondary cipher series.
It's clear I've been around a life or two
through how I sound and shit.
Increase within this brownie mix
and add yeast to make you raise up.
I'm basically embattled against these brats
that be down to eat my cake up.
Girl, I can forget about the world
and talk about myself all day.
Or I can change these letters
to paint myself like Wesley in a space-age sweater
in a jefferies crawlspace if that'd be better
according to eurocentric criteria of who's superior
and move my derrier to where's the rear of here's caboose,
but I'm not induced. I'm too fucking juiced.
I receive my orders directly from the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
Tight and tough, trinitrotolu-creampuff comprised of sterner stuff,
light me up: no burn out.

Pointfivefag:
I'm bailing/railing against you
157,000 units moved and i'm considered a failure
come on, and do it/better
butter with the leather pleather pants and stutters
convo on butt plugs with my mother
'bout the times when i was rhyming rudderless
lost at sea, man/I'm the boss with the key sissys
the He Who Walks Three Man
who got big dick? not me man
its just my dukey stick/ I come for you quick
come again/holding on and holdin in
hol-din- onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
holding on for dear life/can really wreck you-ou ou
so i went recluse/now im set loose
to juice the looseleaf
you read as i spread my bread unleaven
you aint my cuppa tea/as my tea at ten teeters
speed reading the ACT at eleven
im the smarty artnigga since way back
back into time/ but no fact sets
rhymes about buttcrack sweat
buddyjacks and fellatio/as I spell my ho-ratio algorithms
driven down to less than zero
no do for self like everything else i wait for the sayso
why? because I'm sidekick Kato/have it your way I'm Play Doh
post nasa Day Glo, muy feo negro/yaybos, jambos, harambes, and hey ho's
the third of my spoken word ofay fey flows
how goes it/prose chosen as I host ghosts
I've been token since close to post production/then suctioned neo natal
worse than toast burnt and scraped at the table
mama's love you with make-do edibles/sedimented carbon particles
harken to said demented articles of jargon unstable
but negating everything in front/you want some
talented but only having three albums
breaking out switching/left hand hittin Richie Allen/back to Wampum

25percenter:
In the boondocks I rock mics, up in the cut/
dissin blunted dope emcees, becuz they fucked up/
(sniff sniff), hmmm, is that some crack or just a buttpuff/
this rhymes not booty, not swellin you smellin you, I"m tellin you/
I empathize wit crews that be academically stressed/
knows my alphabets but wreck tests/
Yeah I bombed the SAT/ then I had the nerve to blast the GRE/
Graduate Record Exam/ with my nervously non-precise hand/
filling bubbles out/ gasping for the answers wit dry mouth/
(ah-hum, ah-hum), lamenting 25%tile shout outs
got tired of nerd-niggering/ analogy figuring/
and no doubt eventually burned out

LSP The Lightskindid Phil/osopher
No Doubt. No doubt
Channel factors that be in my occipital lobe be dysfunctioning
cause amygdala activation in columnar structures is deconstructing
Foucaultian revolutions like gay men in a dump truck
Im dumbstruck at dumbfucks who dont understand
My between subject design is just derivative
Or my sign that the time
Of predicting the future is modeled in Bayes Nets
I dont know what the meaning of life is cause I cant test it
Best it should be wrested from me
Invested in thee/at the behest of we
Metaphorical cultures killing families
And abstract realities lived through books of cheese
Are all my activisms made of
Cant feel love, we kneel stand and sit the fuck up, for what?
Echoic maemory fades faster than
Sensory deprivation drives us crazy
Aint lazy or depressed but I request a quick death
Cause in the depth of whats left , I saw your soul
And it crept to my neck like a vampire
To sire more hollow value structures cock-sure and ball heavy
Sagging low I strip you of your operationalizations
But youd never know the difference
Indifferent to the fact that I been fucked by my brother
And I been fucked by the cops
I dont want a support group, I just want it to stop
But its back to the lab of swirling ANOVAs , Damn.
Psychology burnout be the worst part of no love.

BABYLON
(kalamka/west/ampu)
(c)2000 Deep Dickollective, LLC

NEVER EVER EVER TRUST A RAPPER WITH DREADLOCKS
THE RED AND THE BLACK AND THE GREEN STUCK IN A DEADLOCK
NEVER EVER EVER TRUST A RAPPER WITH DREADLOCKS
UJIMA ,KUGICHAGULIA, NIA IN A HEADLOCK

G Minus:
C'mon boys git yer muscles big to the beat that I complete
with the vocabulary component I know you want it
microphonic devices are ignited
as per the nisus which descended from heaven and is priceless
in a comparison with any other thang on this earth,
or in the one that follows.
Be the bastard son not of high birth
therefore they call me Ralowe although
it may be possible they call me that
because my natural is super unusually embued
with energies which causes stars to fall in on they selves.
Appalling phenomenon being drawn from hell-flame.
Fireballs hang. Brimstone intone the name.
Calligraphic and dignified this nigga tend to spit with pride.
Slide hard to this. D to the D to the C.
Marvelous chi of a king if you feel what I mean.

25percenter:
I works in Zion/ tho some wanna thinks it Babylonian/
comin in/ th Telegraph Ave. repository of diva glory/stud girl story
fifteen year ole sophomore at the Castle/ getting hassled
for sensibilities that make sense to her skin
nose sniff, fingertips feel for la femme/ heart still
pumps red crimson/ her ashy elbows ruff from scuffs
wit wannabe emcee homophobes on some menage mission
wishin ta catch pices kissin both swimmin upstream
yin ta yin/ and yet they want dem fig in
stick a prick in/ naw nig!
jah why dem no let me peoples live to live/
25 heart strings attracted to baritone tone scats
blacqueer than black
cuz one early morn, in 72, me was born like dat
whats yo izm?
judgment against those who bent to bend a different way than you joint
dont build infinities, just negates the point
bass akward logic spent interceptin nationalisms
schizms of sexuality that didnt even exist in Af-antiquity
free-spirit, freedom of expression
but somebodys gotcha
stressin/ and why?
Your mental limits limit nothin more-less than ya spirit
reflected in ya lyrics/ G.O.D. cultivates L.O.V.E for self
so erewhere I posture fa dollars be Zion
boychilren in skirts/ tomboys wit scuffs from dirt/spirits hurt
I help to heal with zeal by bein self to self
bump what another wanna do wit him monkey
her dugout, hip, booty or mouth
my deep dic swing from limb to limb like Tarzan
but with nappy napps tho
and a blakk man/ negritude this string of metaphors
like Fanonian holy wars against colonialists/ th ish!
activist rap cat propositionin queer rebs
to grow fros and dreds to intimidate white house gates like F.O.I/
my kin be lesbo, drag queens, hetero, and bi
reverse th direction of th boom bye-bye
without resortin to tit for tat
stand strong lil ones, me gats guns
spits rounds of verbage against haters
Zion is Mariposa luv strong chek ya data
dem my twenty-five cents out til later

chorus

Pointfivefag:
whats the meaning of demeaning me
im tired of you yo/flowing flows
throwing bow tied bean pie lies
captured
caught up on tapes/bought up by chumps you gamed
silly willie lump lump
caught up in your rapture/that bastards still your pastor after
validating rapist in his paper sales
and claiming my fairy tales fractured and backwards
as I go wo/man to man
with peter pansex pan african
black nationalist ass crack snack cracker attractions
attacking your Actual Facts/ X factored factions
fractions caught up in my everyday actions
Pointfive equal to your real satisfaction
but im not satisfied
Asante Sanitized Molefi retractions mollified
The odd body politicking bard/I got tired of your god
Making me scared preparing me to spare my Rod Steigered
staggering bleeding
stabbing faggots in the name of Jesus
and the bloood done signed my name
spilling from gonads/and from dads radicalhomohalf-a-fag lad
jizz with the jist Onanistic uncletom soundbombing
always booty/I be THE Fruit of islam giving alms
while my Palm Pilot was all thumbs
I Come at Night out of spite
I jack with my left hand/Massaging the Blackman to babble-land
a nebulous existence/I assist my sisters
fiisting they sisters to the wrist in
brothers rubber gloving ass slappiing
twisting in the wind/ii begin again
youre fretting/ hetros sweating and flipping
through they missolette and wishing
there was something /anything there to prepare you
for your mission /Christian Hindu Muslim Jew
popping shit Coptic Hebrew Israelite Issue
now Im bout to get in you
babbling on /say you god is with your pew
your head of dreads is boxing rocks
im bout to rock this box o tissue

RHYTERS RETREAT
(West)
2001 Deep Dickollective, LLC

Pointfivefag:
Once upon a time there was a RapFaggot
After becoming tired of the conundrum and humdrum
Of Bling-Bling
He decided to cipher-sweep
And now the Rhyters Retreat
And Now the Rhyters Retreat

high tides push my pen when im in Marin rhytin/ ciphering with boylovin brothas crazy enlightenin/ melodic beats flirt with triphoptic harmonies/ reverse numero ascendance, breaker 321 and back to 3/ we be hardened thick skinned niggas/ ya never figured my crotch grab was an indexical figure of speech that make chefs run to th kitchen marinate to my release and beat they meat/ I be th 25percenter nasty rhyme freak/

we pause for the blaqueer cause, cuz we claim its Renaissance/ star gazin from the Mission to Mars/ so what? you seen me in a gay bar/ well guess the wuc fhut/ well I saw you there too with your whole crew/ flirtin with the likes of a tranny you thought was femme lesbian/ didnt notice th huge hands, the adams apple? yeah right! you thespian!/ I chek Black Nationalists and rainbow coalitions/ intersectin cats in-between is what the revolution been missin/ I gots Ts fightin disease for possession of me/ how Im goin be scared of glocks you pops G? my Crixivan enhanced structure protects this flesh like armor/ post some other compost fuckin farmer/ my rhythmic sound bits raise nipple-tits like a snake charmer/ wind instrument to circumvent your heterodrama and racist church bombers/ tongue twist THIS in ya lip comflama for a second/ im a rap faggot and thru wit mic checkin/ Im a rap faggot and thru wit mic checkin.

chorus

verse was given to me by birthright/ to use the mic to carry the torch of Essex, Baldwin, Langston, Marlon/ I am the son beckoned by th sun to drop some and raise up sons, you gets none/ me divisible by 25 divisible by myself divisible by I is one is one is one is ONE/ no need for Florida recounts unless ya dumb/ you left wit crumbs of dreadlocks breakin at the tips when this tongues blazin/ why must the preachers son be so amazin?/ the first born disciple sliding sweet tongues round Saturns cypher/ unscramble that ramble if you decipher/ galactic rings reverberate reverberate reverberate at the clash of my baritone/ I cause static on ya metrodome microphones from my 98th and Bancroft home/ Why battle you when I done already crushed two of ya clones?/

this junction really recommends some ole confunkion, function, mathematical and scientific derivative conjugating grammatology prolific/ so you a crack fiend? then crack that verse before ya sniff it/ used to be in DC but decided to hit it and get a lil more pacific/ dig it?/ like that? blacqueer than black/ cuz you said I didnt look like that/ I piece wars with your metaphors/ simplistic lyricist, let me yawn and stretch/ you bore politics like Gore/ I snore through your lyrical war/ and ya dumb like the son of old Bush pushing played out fallacies/ 25percenter up for candidacy/ mic check comin direct whose next?/ slave name Timothy West, check the breath

OFF THE HOOK
(ampu)
2000 Deep Dickollective, LLC

Stop referencin' your prick and stuff!
It's an icicle cold world and you need to zipper your stick up
before my snickerbar hiccup nuclear nougat
on your fubu shirt if you flirt further before
your fallow brethren or allow severin' on the spot:
it's your preference whether or not.
Movin' on you little breeder motherfuckers mobilizin'
holdin' my holy huevos your bro had tongue-tied
trying to braid pubic hair like you don't need air!
Stop sayin' you the shit before I pack you, black!
Stop brownie-squirtin' the virtual or I'ma hurt you!
I'm the real deal McNeil Lehrer still here like Gaynor gay boy.
Put you on bloopers getting' swooped on by poofters schooled in
breaking your buttcrack up backwards as if Act Up in the 80's.
Hey ladies, I'ma stay soufflein' your third rate hustle
til I hurt a muscle. Unlikely.
On the way back to work from lunch
feel like acting like a motherfucking fool,
walking through a crowd of students and slappin they asses
sayin', "You can do it! Stay in school!'
You may refer to me however you like.
This nigga havin' no illusions when I'm on the mike.
I be the figga singin' wrong on this here love song.
Pause for the gladiator lustre on the chest of the
skater rushin' west so invested in pedestrian aesthetics.
Watch what you callin' this you flawed closeted
misunderstood woodgrain flaming fecal deposit

(G Minus/Mitsu dialogue)

'Minus' mean one fag less,
fresh off the gurney, returning,
funk-avengin', extra engine in the trunk,
unleashing shurikens for all the punks you've beaten!
Mad as Mother Earth's temple tensin' the peninsular
something seismic to keep the mike lit
like some torches chasin' heretics!
My therapist told me to tear yo' shit up! Nigga, what?!
Buck your silly poonstruck fool structure up
out the saloon for many moons.
Get my money or I'ma 'shroomcloud your room while
you pull out on my glossy fashion spread.
Natty and nappy natural on the head won't dread.
And hellraiser you to the bed. Like I said.

VAXICRAN (The D/DC Song)
(kalamka)
(c)2001 Deep Dickollective, LLC
4x:
a spoon full of sugar

4X:
warm night/cant sleep/too hurt/too weak

Im asking you to chill nigga
stop and drop your pretense/we cannot make sense
of why you need context and descriptions of prescriptions filled
at Walgreens the Rite Aid might aid
His illness be stilled/by a course of horse pills
sitting on his windowsill
and a will like G. Gordon/see its important that I holla
from Low A to the North lawnday
Dollars be collared
greenbbacks blacks and reds
heads backwards on the actual facts
my norm of snowstorms/now warm Decembers
find me reminding to remember
bruh did you take your meds?
best to rest and stay in your beds
he resists as niggas wanna twist raps
bout busting caps in faggots with naps
I feel trapped by my dreads/running laps
on the treadmill quickens
as the sick get sickened around me
while everybody in the ads are smiling
liverfailure,edema drymouth
and palpitations are miles away/as are the days
when I spoke in codes
speak and spell of weakened T cells and viral loads
inflections euphemistic /of infections opportunistic
wackness abounds around your sound of blackness optimistic
the fact stands that man and woman
in the land of interplanetary tax bracket cant hack it
thought that you could beat it that untreated stomach cancer?
think that Vaxicrans the answer?
your wife is calling JoJo dancer/you a gogo dancer
and nothing can stop your body/part of me is scared to party
so I hand job and knob slob the hotties
as fantasies of a man and me/seem to be less problematic
than my need to suck the skin off
Ive been offered and proffered by you
youre dreaming /seems you bit off more
than you had the teeth for
cause I dont fake/at the grand lake state lake and lakeshore
core regimen choked down/to clown a jungle of fungal spores
pneumocystitis phlebitis and more lying
Klaus Nomi dying on a 12 city tour
hoping we dont open no more doors for
of course coping entails roping in your notions
that D.dc be the source of your angst
thanxs for the mammaries
and the mammymade milk of your ilk
when im bustin up your party
youll feel my steeltoed silk
forreal tho?
the lab saiid Im negative/but im not positive
what have I got to give cause Glaxo Wellcome said it? to bring it
I tie a red ribbon round my dingaling

sing it

in the most delightful way.....

the ah ah, a metaphor for emcee stumbles and stutters and obstacles
emcee sweet pickles wanna get dills
no man is perfect, even when we rock this joint,

intentionality of words spoken with ill intent
leave limbs broken, cracked, bruised, bbbbb bent

Wack beats and 808 State/dah dah dopler/ray dah dah dah traits
Cumulous cloud cover charted
I be the loud lovers/catching wreck in the next/a pah pah partment
Smutty buttclapping/or it could be pussy fah fah farting
Its just as well/you can never really tell/who or what I be spah spah sparking
Jealous and envious tendencies/still your engine be started
Got you hard /sha shah shat ya wad/swat your twat a lot
The DeepDick chartered collusion/collision/brain abrasions/
abused with contusions
sharp shards/leave dah dah dark marks/all enlarged or as small as quarks
park your car/embark on the ark/on a lark
like Bah Bah Boston/in that flying guitar/or the Pharcyde
three album projects/broke with no focus or cah cah context
lost direction /shut out again/see you in the cutouts/the lah lah lah large bin

STRAIGHTTRIPPIN
(kalamka/west/ampu/eglin/gaddis)
2000 Deep Dickollective, LLC

25percenter:

lifting masks off the faces/since way back in the days
when hip hop was about poplocking, samples and storytellin'
my belly is swelling no respect for resurrecting introductory lessons
verses as discriminatory as standardized test-es-es
but never the best-es-es
predilections against Billboard charting ego boosts for loot
I be the 25percenter/the creme de la creme in your alphabet soup (ah-ah)
the foundation grounding the root/
and plus the babydaddy-babyboo
my flow is ebonically sophisticated translated grammatology for gangstas/
i be the heavy breathing stranger
brown baby in a manger born in '72
unpredictably but suitably here to entertain you
incantations of verbal sophistications is best when
not perpetuating gangsterism and pimpin/
check yo champagne sippin cause you be perpetually straight trippin'
step off the bananna peel/your rhymes are fruity and ya slippin
pull back the black curtain/say peace to the priest your rhymes have been forgiven
and all your constant fantasies of gangsterism aint got nobody shiverin'
time is tickin/ pointfivefag, get in 'em

pointfivefag:

Im overloaded with your information/saturated with your opinions
as boyloving brothers get covered so fast
in the stank ass smothering onions of your religion
but i be atheist saying this/you dont get the jist so you be saying
/my twist in the wind is indecision
ya as dumb as a box of rocks lady/
you rate played, fate faded as argyle socks in the late '80s/
im better/ whether leather, pleather pants,or taffetta
my rants leave your ass as massacred as passenger pigeons
you dodos is stoopid my troup be bourgie-boho post-Pomo Afro Homo group kid
timeless rhyming tireless through loops and souped shit
but youre used to mindless whoopty whoop shit from crews spineless so you missed me
yes, I'm a sissy and what does that mean to you?
youre awful concerned about what i do
for someone who dont wanna kiss me
at stake we got whether or not when chillin, im willin
to fake where the break in my wrist be
neck getting stiff to uplift gifts riffs that leave Christians extra crispy
Im laughin at this/as baffled Africentrists get misty
pissy with nifty black nation liberation songs
wack libations that rudely refuse to include me
I'm the W(Ron)g Karenga to fuck with/you stuck with me
cause D/DC,we always booty
you recall a night to remember/like so many '70's R&B grooves be
changing/strange low hanging fruity
/be rearranging duty to do me/ .2-5. 5, 2. to me

(youve made g minus very angry {go g minus go g minus!)

Gminus

I don't think you wanna know what I think about you
when I see those big words all inside your mouth, foo'.
After you threw my pseudonym on your tongue
you had to 've known that had me sprung.
Appears you're trying to come on to me/ We need to be clear on your honesty
or what's appropriate and go from there/
I know you care but, boundaries!/ Stop hounding me!
Go forth and pound the street. ??! Oh! Yeah! Now I see!
Fuck that bitch! I'm a hottie! /How now are you dogging me?!
In which process are you earning currency more valuable in this economy?
Let's give it a shot. Pull it out of your shorts/and let's see what you got/ and I'll be the court.
My eyes lock on your perplexity with sexy indifference in this pimpin'.
Fin'sta twist on these breeder ciphers like pipe cleaners
any which way you wanna rip shit dip shit
you can't outroll Olegba, a-hole! Tehuti-hoo!
Seduce the cutie in your crew with the usage of my views
who you though was /you thought was/ immune to this hot sauce.
Everything you see is fucking mine by birthright-of-way.
Focussing my words in to a ray to make you die today.
You gonna go see the Ohlone, homey.
I'm your friendly suckafree self-esteem merchant.
You see the future with two of my CD's playing the clean version.
Unlace my shoe a little loose to blow the whole transaction.
Pages missin is elope / with my dope topics to the tropics
is so to say plagerism I'm fatalism
to those who / hate description to evade gay collision
fall to a halt straight trippin'.

(and now the diva stylings of 25percenter)

25percenter:

somebody done laced the battle rhymes with crack juice and Ecstasy
dont ever let me smell your nasty breath next to me
claiming you sustain an even flow when you cut loose,
yo Jamba has yet to test a detox boost for wack rhyme addicted crews trying to get juiced
your flows non-addictive/just cocky doodle doo
just a Tweety bird trying to rhyme the hens to roost
claiming your rhymes are tight when ya geometrically obtuse
mimiciking gestures and pronunciations of some other brother's
for the fourth time/i cant be your lover
cause you repeatedly big uppin' muhfugs
who make about as much sense as a footglove
stuttering, sputtering uttering some crazy nonsense
and claiming its some newshit about as redundant as ancient hieroglyphics
smothered like turkey wings under a big biscuit
puking cause ya sick kid/heterosexist misogynist
you need to take some of that pink shit and go sit
on a toilet bowl/Pepto Bismo/hip hop ill-shit control
let the truth be told/
ego inflation constipation ya hella backed up/
and your rhymes are perpetually F'ed up
fagdissin is a has-been/now let me stop rhymin and go find my boyfriend/or a lesbian

trippin.
D/DC breaking up cyphers while you still ad libbing
straight trippin say peace to the priest,
your rhymes have been forgiven..

2000 Deep Dickollective,LLC

chorus:
grammatically gifted
collaborative ebonics like chronic be addictive
our philosophy be grammatology
that dignify the black and proud
say it loud!
How? How? How? How?

G Minus:

I wasn't fuckin' witchoo. Now you got my cutlass drew
crushin foo's such as you busted bruised;
hush and view structure's true
grudging pseudo-slugproof ruggedness: Ralowe Ruffshot!
Now the mike's in trinitro-trouble!
Recite a couple recondite double entendre
triple quadruple stupid googleplex of excessive text.
Trainwreckage and detritus. All you satyr-haters upset with us.
Lecherous. Spread your lexicon
I supplex through your poo-poo spout without provo.
Hop on your mobe, touch your toes
and booty-bally-hoo
a bourgsie bohopostpomoafrohomo
to letcha know, like fo-eleventy.
Most heavenly. One less than seventy.
Rap fucked my mouth raw
and said next time he'd use a saw.
Watch the ill builder hammer solidly
all grand grammatology.
Ralowe-anthology. Knowledge all you see.
G Minus down your spine in the bindery
maquilladora and free senoras fleein' over the border
to recapture Sea World. This is D/DC, girl.
Karenga-tang slang hurl barrels of petrol to oil
my Fillmoe slim jimbo through your cracked window
as if I lack mental acuity, as far as usage, tooking whoops!
taking a memory loss on my favorite word I used to toss around
RE-in' as my ex at the unisex.
Reluctantly sucked into starting a conversation
with his replacement
I'm the coon from whom Doom got his doctorate
Judging how you're cockstruck now, ain't it obvious?
For sheezy. Leaving sentences deceased
with my No. 2 sword drew
I'm just happy to be that release for you
Release for you
Release for you

25percenter:

I scatter through the paginas
like a collegiate bilingual speedreader
Check ya belly grumble for ya
bound to choke on the food for thought I feed ya
Rhymes so abstract that iambic pentameter
be personified like an amateur
Words and verbs disturb
when they be definitively obscure for sure
In case ya forgot
I gave birth to discursive verse with metaphor wars
Memory breath like Yoda
cuz I abide by what his old ass advised and I use the force
Check the breath for funky dialect,
take the next step, is that affect or effect
Analogously blessed, like my lyric make mathematically equivalent
a pointfive-tit to half a breast, YEP!
Grammatology translated into masterful, magical realism
Like Audre Lorde and Anzaldua
activate postcolonial schism
Ebonic flows simplify the minds third eye,
I call it interiority
Niggas dream they can understand half of what I mean,
complex called inferiority
No doubt Im always making up words
consider it country ass conjugation
Old rhymes like Latin become dead language:
lexicon stagnation
Now heres a little nasty, nasty mastabatory story
written as ego glory
Ima pass the mic like oracles pass riddles
cuz this is a third of the story
Philosophical mind boggle
laced with a lil bit of Good Times (Damn, Damn, Damn!)
An ambedex, unapologetic about the terse verse,
I hi-jacked Websters dic with my left hand (right hand)
with my left hand (right hand)
With my left hand (right hand)

Pointfivefag:

I got the methodology, etymology
Word origins encouraging incorrigible
Rhyme dirigibles
Smidgins of pidgin
Within the ridges and curves
I got the swerve
I serve the bitchniggering herbs
And wack toys with Blakkboy
A factoid fag-boy
Destroying your annoying story deploying
I tell it like it was
It used to be so simple
Just a say what?!?
Instead of all of that break it up, shake it up
Tense terse tense you love
Line your pockets corroded
(adam) Corrollas putting on the gloves to show it
aint nothing to it, aint nothing for it
cause if you pull it, I tow it
and dont you blow it and if you do it
dont think its cause you already know it
in the back of your mind, designs that youre blind to
one of those other kinds finds you
ties that you bind your rhymes to
come unwind
monkeyshining like a junkie tying off
near the fear of your (cough cough) first cough
the hard will eventually go soft
I write about niggas biting Tigers
But not even liking golf
Sporty Joe Calisthentic now you in it to win it
Sporty Joe Calisthentic and you still a jocksniffer
But Ill rock witcha for a minute
Just pretend its not happening son
Plain brown rapping, and one hand clapping is done
With my prose I be the Woman Called Moses Gunn
Under smothering onions
Off Maxwell, the real street from the Hill Street
I Kiel Martin to kill Martins Kielbasa
Shule, Boule , IPE Andare Uhuru Sasa!
For Jews Falasha
And Denny McClain
And hot angry big booty Ethiopian waitresses
In Jack London Square
You stare and watch and youre beginning to claim
That my greatness is overrated, overstatement
Latent, and laying there
like gravy on a Salisbury Steak
a pool congealed with fillers and no feelings
but you eat me any day
on GP on any tray
cause Im cheap, and Im greasy
and there aint no other way
aint no other way
aint no other way
aint no other way

its grammatology nigga
aint no other way..

MARIPOSA PRE-LUBE

(c) 2000, 2001 Deep Dickollective, LLC

G Minus:
Future superstar larvae. Caterpillar.
Feelin sad about the anti-imperialist
fear and desiring inside the tripirate abdomen.
It happens in stages.
Counter-hegemonic. Clown and getcha.
Splitcha pupa to the truth o' shit.
Rhythmic. Post-chrysalis stylist.
Post-pomosexual. Lo and
behold. Only rap in your asses.
Visitin'. Lickin' it clean.
You shitlessly scary witness birth,
no Mary, of the earth's most powerful
counter-hegemonic, instead of chronic,
oxymoronic love in hell.
Cocoon shell. Boom. Crack the womb.
Mariposa posse exposed to oxygen postin' the global axis.
So anti-fascist. Rap faggots.
Pull fly out the maggots on the lynch corpse
on the hang with the worst stench on cologne.
Original. Unkillable. Don't cross the game.
Mariposa posse slang.
Stop looking at me strange.
Mariposa posse slang
stop looking at me strange

25percenter:
(stop looking at me strange)
we are daring our tongues to be rebellious, shameless, rhythmic
essex incantations filled with holy spirits
boy loving banji-boy emcees endear it
society fear it and never ever wanna get near it, gay lyric
righteous rappers allude to Babylonian gunclappers
wewearthmaskers and sodomite fudgepackers
my quest inverts the question back atcha
how you gonna be pro black unity when we excluded from the data
the judgemental pedastal on which blind men wobble
false alters constructed by disoriented role models
spinnin the bottle, hopin for a phat chance like lotto?
flex th wrist dice shake ya luck push roll the numbers follow?
excludin me got hands motionin get out like Apollo
sandman congradulations cause you sucked th whole flow
hip hop is a little bit more deterministic
like the hate some spit, flip, deliberate and bigoted
deadly like my silence, spineless
when my interception of hateful epitets go unchecked
no longer are we vexed,
our time has arrived NeXT chapter
homiesexual rappers,
raise up to be phatter,
reclaim our love for bein emcees
despite the fact that at times it seemed
hip hop did not wanna love me, wanted to kill me
called me fag and sissy
slur words absurd bitch-nigga blurb
we dare to drop shit, shake lil segregated boxes up like rainbow nerds
the interdiction that claimed our emceeing was fiction
got met with no friction,
ya jokes bout wrist bendin and lispin and switchin
same ole same ole ole false tradition
we dare to cipher decipher contraditions of that
we are not large men, yet we are phat
and we are here to stay
and we goin rhyme all day
Mariposa mastermouths lmno pay
demanding visibility, nigga respect due
(cause)we are standing to have our say
Mariposa big up!

Get huh, smash huh! break huh!

out house saviors questing questioning
our self self deprecating behavior
You put your demons in me /cause you hate huh
Here, at the pier,in the club popping gum
With no glove making shake it up in a trailer
You trailed her/to her apartment /started wailing
Assailed her/cause you thought no one would save her
In time my writes ka razor/be done gave ya a line and shaved ya
sCraping to stave off the young uns hunger pains
And Siriusly craving Rainbow Flavas and trading
Back to the mammymade, handmade homemade
Bisquick dissed quick Is spit of writs ridic and re-cockulous
Corrollin high pro for ho strollers
Kicks for tittylickers and fruity bootknockers
Forsaken, like Rustin, busted to the back
Of black facts/Im starting, on the verge Gerber Hart attacks
Like stacks of Polyamerase and crack-laced Canadian bacon
You faking, you bit the Gs and tasted whinin
The breach in the myelin sheathin your spine
Its time to bang your synapse/when my wry wrymes fire next time
You signify, monkey,and stutter stammer
Clamoring ,dammit Ill bite ya
When you figure it out
Decide its alright to dig my planet

Can I get an oxymoron on (word is bond)
Can I get a contradiction on (to the breaka breaka dawn
That's the short-long of it
D/DC be like sex before the foreplay
Everyday and all day


25percenter

I be oxymoronic/like bourgie niggas rhymin' ebonics
like an unspoken phonic/a robot without bionics
like leafless trees/like atheist god belief
like silent speech/or an unbelieved creed
a downer called speed, or unfertile seed
like vegetarian meat or yummy-ass beets
I be a homeless real estate agent with a deed
Getting high with a soggy ass blunt, nigga please
Gregory Hines without his tappers
Common-folk being Okay with gay rappers
Toronto without Vince and the Raptors
Im the pimp daddy of the week afraid to pimp-slap ya
I defy dictionaries, and flex the index
I be the 25percenter like funky underarms fresh
Like a conformist rebel, like an angelic devil
Rhymes defy temporality like being on some before level
Next level Ill conjure up a short saga
A thirsty Mexican unable to say agua
Or a Star Wars with a skinny-ass Jabba
Me trying to get busy with your daughter or your mama


Pointfivefag:

I be a very/oxymoronic thing
like no swing in Harry Connicks singing
like a sedative tonic/
sip my lip balm psalm of calm panic
Im a steady and resolved manic/ Im a still heartbeat frenetic
Im a overheating cryogenic
like an earthbound Jetson/Im a shoelaced Stetson
like blown out dreads/on the heads of pacifist vets and

in a separate session/Im a truthless confession
i digress though on topic/ Im a visionary myopic/
pepto that dont stop shit/you pop shit?
I plant my feet and dropkick/
Im a realized wish and hope to meet
a Muslim Hebrew Israelite Rosicrucian Greek Orthodox Irish Catholic Ethiopian Coptic
Im a public mystery systemic/ Im a citified yokel
Im a local pandemic/Im a loose fitting chokehold
Youre the steel band spastic/Im the Plastic Ono
Im the long time the wrong rhyme, the unspoken vocal
Im sans gimmicks and sales pitch/Im the non-itching histone
Im a functioning glitch/because I do not compute
Im a catalyst not triggering/ Im an analyst not figuring/
synapse not firing/ Im Richard Pryor not "niggering"
for an albums entirety/Im legalized piracy
and youre urgently urging me/ Im a grassroots counterinsurgency
I am unreal/like GoldenSeal/purging pee of impurities
i know with asssurety worrying/Im the dark that sends all the vermin scurrying
Im flurrying rhyme at a standstill/ I take my time hurrying fast
Im favors and flavor currying/Im an Indian with no caste
I am 4/4 jazz, I am a Rapper's Delight/with copyright for Grandmaster Caz
Im the bored inspiring the first fired to last


LSP The Lightskindid Phil/osopher:

I be oxymoronic like a Clotidian cataclysm
A trendsetting anachronism/ a Latter Day Saint without a mission
Im an elongated acronym
Im a church hymn or her sung by pious church bombers
D/DC be oxymoronic like a vegetarian Dahmer
If youre a baller you recognize my flow
I be that part of your subconscious that everybody know
I be kicking ugly beauty and lying truth
Like breathless respiration and sweatless perspiration
I be that comfortable irritation/cause Im a unified Black Nation
( A Salaam Alaikuum!) Oxymorons what?
When Im within myself I be effortless creation
Like a silent radio station, a disconnected realation
Giving you heartless palpitations as you enjoy joyless recreation
I be a coon show at a slave auction
You got me nervous and scared, but with no sign of caution
Flowing with that shy confidence, I bring that humble arrogance
2000 years of failed revolts have given me a revolutionary patience
I be oxymoronic like godfathering where no moms be
When Im with my boys I be a Jel-lo Pudding pop
In the mouth of Bill Cosby
put it in your mouth, wont you put it in your mouth?
Mmmm, and it taste good
I be a simple ethnic identity-
Fuck it I am Tiger Woods

25percenter:

I be oxymoronic like a friendly rival
Like a muhfuggin atheist bible, like the innocent being liable
I spit gift that be like solidified saliva
Like a penniless buyer, who didnt think Id try ta
Alliyah with a CD Ice Cold Like Fire
A babymaker who cant sire
My rhymes implode cyphers like actionless verbs
Sentences without words,magnet school without nerds
Somebody stupid censoring what the deaf heard
A potpourri smelling terd, an aquatic skybird
I list sensible as a bridged rift or an Indian Gift the chief dont even wanna F with
I make signs and be the motionless mime, currency without dimes
Notebook paper without lines , a brief moment without time
A sissy banji boy emcee like me writing dope ass rhymes

I did it all/I have no regrets

G-Minus:
Watch this figga slide up cool as hell.
You didn't see. Dead still. All the way live.

COLOGNE ON FUNK
(kalamka/west/ampu)
2001 Deep Dickollective, LLC

chorus:
You not supposed to put cologne on funk
unless you blessed with the spunk to be crunk
nostalgic thrift aesthetic prophetic Greg Brady dont hate me
for my cologne on funk
my cologne on funk
my cologne on funk

G Minus:
Always next, as if your neighbor. Untouchable flavor.
Stop bangin' on my fence.
How my nuts hangs depends on the wind of my fart.
Over in the trendy part. The skinny end of the chart.
No windows open on the BART.
Poor persons ran out by artists, artists ran out by corporations.
The world slowly worsens while paint gets on your apron.
Now, remember, that you clonin' the funk.
I ain't blowin' or nuttin'; I'm ownin' the junk
that's in the substance of your secular summit
that makes your clubbin' and your bubblin'
so roll your eyes and turn your nose up.
You know what? Bitch! From Bayview to Shinjukuu.
Forgive them Ralowe how they do just what I do.
Everybody wants to be a black homo.
Everybody wants to be Ralowe.
Broken elevator down for whatever pattern mode I'm holding in.
Once and for all, penultimate.
Mealy-mouthed heliotropic and needing to bend close to it.
I dress better than Shibuya moneydrinkers
who be smuggling Anglo porn and Northern Killa Cali chiba.
Better believe it's due to the inundation or racist gestalt
that everybody hates a fly nigga by default.
Muggin' down me shifty cause I wear clothes that fuckin' fit me.
Black Dot say it, now I'ma say it.
Black People, think outside the matrix!
Keep your style and content piled on something St. Elsewhere.
Ain't what Black is. Actor's contraction of isn't.
Not black with no vision. Dres and Mista Lawnge.
Head immeasurably strong. It's been seen before.
Many came by dayshine.
Your whole rhythm seems to need a better bassline.
Hyrbrids over purity. Irreconcilable duality in unity.
For surety.

Reddirty-ville to the Mid Atlantic
frantic collegiate
ebonic philosophical antics
found myself
found hiphop
he was locked up in a closet
trying to hide from spittin real topics
I gave him the key to unlock his voice
he gave me me
I gave him free
b-boyism for religion
beatbox traditions
I slaved under a massa named Duke
who rebuked strange fruit
till i busted loose the noose
and found truth
a Christopher street cipher
after Tuesday red zone
fresh cologne, no ET phone home
I was alone
bout to explode in a vogue
when a Ninja saved my life
banjee realness crucifix kiss
a nice price
he said yes, i was blessed
but then had to move West
I was at bay
hated tall trees, hung out in EPA
where my parlay got a little better
than okay
a little wetter than LA
a bit better to be gay in O-town
without fear
and a conscience mo clear
and some other brothas
with similar movements to help steer
D/DC, 99 was the year
and we just kept on

U rush instead of concen-tra-ting
on continual  growth
evolution
ascending towards clarity
learning life lessons of what you want
finding -  solution
while what you need 
be shinning through the fog
can u see the light
cuz its ummm...
shinning so bright
people seen as people and not like Dolomite
stereotypes -  Gays or Dikes
see JUICE. be a dime a dozen
yet overtly ordinary
taught to be yo self, let it flow
hold yo brotha- sista though
nothing is lost in new start
sometimes you gotta let go

deconstructing to reconstruct

25Percenter ad lib intro

25Percenter:

the brain fibulates and the heart thinks
the eyes say word and the ears blink
it's chaos and disorder when someone demands a freestyle extend
system override
shit come out the mouth and not the rear end
word offend, thoughts bend ass-back and bass-akward
ciphers don't need ya sorry salivating stature
First frontier of the year
nothing in the space matters but the mass
lotioning libations for that ash
free style
style free? but shackles on them ankles
my fingertips smell freedom
but catz chicken like Bojangles
freedom don't smell like apple pie,
(but a ham hoc)
instinctively in-sync bi byes
motioned in a pop-lock
can keyboards anticipate a word?
can keystrokes conjugate a verb?
can I suggest that we learn on curves
in Bedstuy, East Oakland, or Leimert?
does mainstreamin guarantee you herd?
and would that render nonsense knowledge?
and them ghetto tongues ebonic?
would it validate my frolic,
cuz I dice up words like chopsticks
and consume
and continue to rock the mic (Right)

JB R.A.P:

Through Dis order, I ask you What is stability for?
I cannot ignore/the massive amounts of gore
On the television and out side my front door
Sit-in down on the first floor
ground zero
I can not ignore, the liquor stores
On every corner-creating drug addicts galore
The fact that my heroes
wish they had lawyers like Shapiro
We're considered men you should fear though
I can not, no I wont hide from the truth
You know ya got, to stop lying boi
Bring the youth up
To the level so they can feel it
Give it to yah , How ya want to?
If you feel it, For real though
What is stability for?
When dis order walks through the door....

Pointfivefag:

I'm The master of the obscure cultural reference
fruity loops and head fakes that make you look stupid
472 times before the end of a paragraph fragment
Oh you thought i'd say "sentence"?
you better conjugate, bitch.
paragraphs, faggot
but that would be too much like right
thats my granmomma type of spite
West By God Va-ginny odd body politicking and spin,see
eggs toasted in Coffeeville spilled this Miss-sissy
I be the Star Buckin Star Fucking crooked letter veteran
that left the Christians extra crispy
while snacking Grahm crackers attack from the Picture Page Window
I stand Pat and Rob your 700 Kinchlows
and bringing all my alms for old Uncle Toms reading Psalms
you say Roll on the balm , but my funky underarms
charm the pants off of Bay Area Resid-ants
and I schlep rides from a chain of Bayjan and Pagan Polypeptides
I slide home
and If youre Jonesin on Hyde,
or singin at Glide, I'm on your side
seen on the sceen with K Queens at Pride
and nigh the high of thighs
and more if youre bored
catch this dis ordered Story Of My Eye

JB RAP:

It hides on the ground, it lies and you can't see it
No you caught up in the midst of the ride
On the outside
of the grass looking in
Trying to turn it over, but you see there's nothing on the other side
You bend a corner to find you friend
But ya can't live in side the glass case of the ceiling
No, See, the space preserved for flesh assess
like you and me
But life don't fit into the little boxes we draw for it
It takes the class to show it
I will and I can stand
I will absorb I am a man
And I press on...

With a pause for the cause

should I persist with the twist in my rhymes
will I sign? I could lie
but then I'm too damn mas co-linn, ask y' friends
cause they pissed
cause what they said bout Mission Men was true
that 99 and a half wont do
they had a million or two
and if 10 percent bent
thats a hundred thousand brothers
that was looking for a lover, marked the other
didnt- stutter or stammer
let these 'Bama nigras handle it
get you grip and let your backbone slip
equipped with dick sucking lips
a kid stuck in a relationship

I'd d-s let you sip

25Percenter:

My existence is intrinsic
not play like your Adam and Steve clip
you're Nationalist?
well I'm Pan-Africanist
spittin shit since '86
no played out topics
I hold the key to this mic
and I done locked it
cuz all you did was drop spit
rehearsed a rhyme and then forgot it
I'm a lyrical prophet
gettin into your Cellular microscopic
You figurin SBC fiberoptics
given a topic, I blast away in a freestyle rocket
no played out bits bout honeydips and moneyclips
emcees got stage presents
I gots poetical gifts
You don't like golden showers,
but why you always gettin pissed
I give the full meaning
and yet you only get the gist
overwhelmed and compelled by the 25%
what ya fag dissin playa
for you get punched in the lip
don't be scurred
If you don't hit, I won't drop kick
so don't str8trip
that's a D/DC punch line
with a high raised black power fist

chorus

JB R.A.P.

Its hard to be one of the only few standing tall
some folks don't seen to understand universal law
every reaction is caused by an action
the center of the circle seems to be the concentration
everything is everything in every situation
and every go round there will come complication
360 degrees of revelations
and all the art is about to go in this US nation
taking away the children's .. uhah.. imagination
brings procrastination
shownuff got me pacin'
trapped like corrections
200 thousands in one location
institutions bent on control and punishment
see how far it gets with the government
malicious and deceitful with criminal intent
an now the horse is pale because of it
spreadin evil all around the nation n shit
almost transparent can u see through it
2002 's president dun made it very apparent
the big man with the big cock dun stepped into the place
he's got the key to the big lock, and the soldiers in stock
An now yo Voice is soft, and no large staff
Boi don't you know what's going on ya best to do the math
You can't wait for the future tryin to live in the past
man is not on top Uncle Sam wont last
time wont make money and money wont make time
money is the power but power wont finish the rhyme...

I am a blackman you scared to clap for
I am a blackman who likes metephor
I am a blackman whose antiwar
I am I
and the blackman that I am is quite sure
I am not pure
African fruits mixed with Cherokee juice
I am a black man with red clay roots
Arkansaw I am
blackman speaking my I am truth
I am not trying to recruit
youth for nothing but revolution
solutions to overstand the I am
they be, unlike me
I am a man, and I am as unique
as you
I am the I who will stand for my truth
I am a blackman educating our youth
Sonnets to Ebonics
Othello in the East O
I am, the sum total of your hope
I am a blackman who sometime can't cope
with haters who hate on knowledge
I am a blackman who says go to college
ignorance should be abolished
but the greatest teacher is a preacher
whose mirror smiles and says to him....


Chorus:


Man Man-

I am deeper than the deep blue sea, on a thursday
before Friday's storm comes to wash me clean
I am pretending to be a pretense of something I have always been,
i'm a number one raiders fan with no face paint, I ain't a chauvanist,
I like taking long walks by the beach and tasting clouds outside of my reach
As I walk amongst you, you don't need to know this history,
just the here and now, that is how we learn to connect with respect
connect with respect, we need to break it on down and connect with respect
This freedom you don't wanna let me own it, but like a donut fried in a vat
i keep popping back up, as tough as the day that you denied me like Jesus
three times before dawn, the battle likes are drawn and verbal bombs are your demise
the lies you told yourself are caught in your breath,
respect those who resurrect flowers from the melting snow
this is a rhyme about giving and living more than I'm taking
escaping the hum-drum of the barrel of a gun that I never held
This is the voice of the book worm, this is the voice of the bookworm
who's words storm earls like hurricanes
you insert the man

I am a Blackman
I am speaking
gullah from the gut and gutter cause Gran D Coota B be Geechie

plying they minds with my halfway lies and faggot pageantry
and now, I beseech thee
Yah mo b there over and under
the drum machines and creepy piano tinkling
hoping you see me/I'm here to teach things
I am hoping you believe me
These quotes I wrote stuck in my throat
while I was swinging in yonder tree/my lover was singing
my brother was bringing for s/he
blankets and sage and thanking him for being
but mabye that's just Phillip Bailey /wailing, entailing my fantasy
a prevailing notion/Claude McKay at the edge of the ocean
PLD toasting Jimmy B. at the party he's hosting beyond the sea
where 206 times a hundred million bones be
fresh and clean from four hindred years in saline
gallons of tears for fears, pulling up the rear, hay baling
in the middle of the the barn and harms way
Obadike on Ebay/means you cant be that way and stay
but Pointfive dont pray so what to say?
Twixt December 26 and new years day
I loose the Strange Food and Fruit from the past
my faithful first be on the last
I am....

The last line was missing these additions
I crashed rhymes together
whether be leather pleather pants
or taf-et-ta, still they asking ya
Rap It Up a lil' faster
pass the peas and the Clastered Sunbows
for the yo yos and Knee-ga-roes with masters
and the Doctorates, still I rock the shit
For the Stanford MC's he/shes on Telegraph
and sadly for your daddy at the Reef
His wedding ring in his pocket
wants to sock-it-to-my-cakes, at stake's
the clown I found in your du-du brown around the Lake
Merritt Bakery,engage in fakery and lies
I watch you die next to the sweet potato pies
as 2-5 eyes the host,
we trouble his bubble- but the brother butter butters his toast
and we coast-to the stack-although the likes attract
its sideways we gaze so all the light refracts
through all the cracks and slights
from your aunts and friends Karenga-ites alike
for pie queens and dykes
they why I write the the track
and when Its time to fight,
you know I got your back
like all my kids at SMAAC
that know the time to twist
with high heels, and hammerheads and bats and fists
and we out,and he out, and she out

He started out a light year ago to get here today
and his child molestation is not the reason
he says that "I'm Gay"
nor is a defining factor
in the play of choices, you see, he was an actor
born into this damnation
and convinced by this holy nation that he was an abomination,
They preached but if only paid attention to
or took the time to mention
or map out or reach out to a solution
they might find a young one
about to reach out of his shell
cuz his soul dun swell
thank Goodness his bones held
thank God for there mind meld
thankfully blessed to interpret these interpretation
expelled as - explo - exh -explorations
difference between Gods Will and Mans Word
I know that, some are fabrications
taught as education
Throughout and under this nation
Known to be silent - yields constipation
Gotta be all You Can Be
Thou prepareth a table before He
In the presence of ah thy enemies
She restoreth my soul strengthening my Identity
For his name sake, Oh, We
Yea though we walk though the valley
Of shadows and death and dark echoes
We protected don't you see the Hello Fellow
We Out like Mellow Yellow... Hah hAh

flipped out on a Run DMC tip.
the rubber hung one busting hypothetical nuts on your tongue.
Ladies, can it be denied

no other brother will know you better than me.
Like weed I smoke the fool who drools
over false prophecies of heterosexuality,
infiltrating silly dreams of 2.5 family lies.
don't give a fuck who I offend,
not pretending to fit in,
just spinning rhythmic verses
worshipping the pen

or that spit you claim is next shit

like taken extra hits after you blunted
go get your beat down backup
heteroflow from your partna with the hickups
get somethin useful, you need a pickup
Nicca please! I kick steady as Jet Li
you Jet Blue from my crew
I bleed beatz out the nose at shows
check your corner dice rings for donations
I'm a scholar (for real) off of vacation
Tired of lame ass disses

TENDERLOIN

JB adlib

6x :
word is Born in the Tenderloin

the tenderloin is a tender space
the tenderloin is like outerspace
Its kinda crazy there you never know what you'll see
That's why I come to tell you/there are no trees
It's all concrete/its all kinda hard
Walk through the tenderloin with a bodyguard
They are selling crack and kinda doing things
Folks selling gold and phony diamond rings
You can go to Original Joe's and get a steak
You can go around the corner and get a plate
Of cheap fried chicken, macaroni and cheese
In the tenderloin you can do what you please
You never know what happens , never know what you'll see
Walking down the streets and it smells like pee
There is broken glass and there are people sleeping
There are people choking and there are people creeping
You never know what you'll see when you're there
If you're not ready you might get a scare
cause

Chorus

I'm 25 in the tenderloin
I'm in the city now but I grew up on a farm
With chickens and cows
folk saying "how ya doin?"
And I knew I would move
and thought I would groove in
To the big city, where it was mo gritty
jungle trees hoverin over as concrete
and city streets
no dirt roads, no outdoor commodes
In san francisco things nan never that slow
that's the verve
And Im'ma speak it cause you know i heard the word
they my people, also ya equals
crackhead and dreds next CEO's that tred
ignoring the cups, but making the buck
the tenderloin's rough
so in SF, I represent for tha cuts,
I represent for the cutz
my diamonds are words, not the bling bling
they are a few of my favorite things
I'm 25, a disturbance to your athmosphere
And I'm wanting you to open up you ears to hear
I'm spittin words about the tenderloin
Market and 6th, pugnacious sniffs
hoes and tricks, and baby that's as good as it gets
but them is my folks, down and out
searching for clout in a city with a whole lot of wealth
looking for some love for self, and better health
so I'm gone always kick it in the tenderloin
cuz where my folks at is where the word is born

sittin on the dock of the Lake
not expectin to fish

jog laps cuz where it's at
is staying swole like that
corn-fed with the dreds
Oakland Blaxploitation, I'm the Mack
with a penchant for the glance back
of niggas thats got back
and that's got my back
when rap cats wanna give flack
about the way the words stack
like Lego blocks
b-boys down for b-boys
lips on lock
but I don't feel no metal grill
supposedly keepin it real
it don't feel real to be iced out
and can't buy a happy meal
I don't dock or lip lock
to get electro shocked
diss-assemble the excess
you independent, the go bot
and pop lock for the old catz
like me that go way back
when being hard was about libido
and negroes was bustin' flo fa show
by the shore
prepin' for shows
cuz it's like that
and that's the way it goes!

Chorus


Man Man:

sittin by the dock of the bay
like Otis Redding,
forgetting that Armageddon is sweating time
for a chance to shine like that shoe man on market,
who gives a brother advice
on how to keep my livin right.
i tip him and say good night.
i'm on my way to play in chocolate waves of my girl's hair.
i witness midnight from the missionary position.
guilty like the spanish inquisition,
i'm hittin and gettin that. and loving it too
not to be rude, but I'm thankin you lord
cuz you give me the strength that it takes to break stereotypes
and give me advice
on how to keep it going, how to keep my living
Freedom, who really runs the state of the world
it's like a stareship flip-flopped and dropped off
in the middle of the universe
a ride to survive to see who kills who first (first)
and when the thirst for blood becomes greater than water
and the streets where hotter than the sun
then the gun is just a toy placed in the hand of the boy
the classic trojan horse of troy-- WHAT!

Chorus:

im in that cruise for a bruise again
and the trend thats been set
says we wont be friends but i'mma bet
that you a bigger man than that black
so imma stand here and watch
you grab your jock and scratch your crotch
adjust your shorts as well
as your comportment swells
and you sold me on your business plan stan
i'm your biggest fan on campus
cause they stamped us freeky deeky
so my man be lampin weekly on the beach
and he be featured in my speech
with all these preachers screaming "jesus jesus"
cept he's converting new believers
big baby faltered at the same altar
its like gestaltist little walter
taught you walking on the water
drowning in milk and silk stockings
cause my boots was made for knocking
and thats just what theyll do
theres no trade available at the zoo
you say you saw your boo with a dude,
so now i guess you got a clue

steppin to a booshie group of batty boy afro hip hop dread heads

forcing bodies water to retreat,
