Genabis

This is Genabis, Remember dis

 

[Canibus]

Yo,

In the beginning I discovered wordplay

I experimented with some syllables from the first to the third day

On the fourth I searched for the words to say

How to compress complex verbiage in the least amount of space

I was perfect at it and mastered the tactics

On the fifth day I decided I would combine it with mathematics

On the sixth day I became a fanatic and I couldn't kick the habit

I would just look in the mirror and practice

On the seventh cycle, I had to take the day off

I was exhausted I guessed my work will never pay off

But if it happened it to him, it could happen to me

And if it happened to me, it was destined to be

 

[Chorus: repeat 2X]

Yo, Genabis, Exit Bus, Levitibus

There ain't a mic on this planet I'm restricted to touch

I read the cosmos what God wrote predictin as much

The inhabitants lack faith but resistance is tough

 

[Canibus]

They backslide back to church and call it minister's bluff

They'd rather remain unenlightened then listen to Bus

I blew the fuck up, even though it was short and abrupt

I was the first rapper to ever to close orbit the sun

One small step for man, one huge step for mankind

...I am the red giant of rhymes

Solar deflectors, incinerate you whole in one second

Flow is untested those who I've threatened fold under pressure

At 120 Beta cycles, high volts ignite your eyeballs

Until you see the fire in front of you

Optic cones, rods, melt one at a time till you realize you in hell

Rip the Jacker's not done with you

I terrorize the rap community with impunity

Blow you to pieces and move elusively thru the debris

What my enemies want to do to me's old news to me

Those that pursue to me will never get thru to me

 

[Chorus]

 

[Canibus]

First rapper to speak over beats dogmatically

Mixed with Elizabethian drama and tragedy

My motto is to dress casually and live lavishly

Look at the Victorian tapestry in back of me

Notice the post renaissance pictures I drew

Hand sketched drawings of the deserts in Nazca Peru

The followable audio propogates the possible truth

The proof I'm the illest so the choice is not up to you

See the standard ideological definition of a rap model

Its Canibus scholarly periodicals

The article is substantially impressive, more then a message

A working thesis from several different perspectives

The Rosetta stone of sentences

For rap music's tentative

Enter'd apprentices

This is Genabis
