None, my son, cuz i'm quicker than a??? Quick to split the chick tryin' to get slick You're nothing but a prostitute turning a new trick Little miss wench, my mind is a trench Makes you drop, then you stop in your tracks and as i clench My fist, i twist words you use to rip The next time you flex, i'm guaranteed to get swift Hip-hopper's, rap artists, and rhyme fanatics Can you believe there's a sucker trying to cause static? Break out the health supplies and medical aid Prepare your mind for a super, alphabetical raid Rhythmic explosion without corrosion Rhymes, in effect, that protect like a trojan Against disease, sorta like a wack mc Rhymes more powerful than a punch at jack dempsy I fear no one, plus i tell no tales I will stand up to any male or female Ones who persist to resist end up a prisoner Hissed in a daze or a faze because he is in a State of shock, too hard for one to take So in a multitude of crowds i run to break Beats for torture, but don't get played I stay paid, i caught ya now you shook, you're afraid Scared of the fact we came back to uplift The name, we designed the game, and we get swift
