[Intro]
~#**************#~
“Look, I was gonna go easy on you not to hurt your feelings”
~#**************#~
“But Im only going to get this one chance” (Six minutes—, six minutes—)
~#**************#~
“Somethings wrong, I can feel it” (Six minutes, Slim Shady, youre on!)
~#**************#~
“Just a feeling Ive got, like somethings about to happen, but I dont know what.
~#**************#~
If that means what I think it means, were in trouble, big trouble;
~#**************#~
And if he is as bananas as you say, Im not taking any chances”
~#**************#~
“You are just what the doc ordered”
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Im beginnin to feel like a Rap God, Rap God
~#**************#~
All my people from the front to the back nod, back nod
~#**************#~
Now, who thinks their arms are long enough to slap box, slap box?
~#**************#~
They said I rap like a robot, so call me Rap-bot
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
But for me to rap like a computer it must be in my genes
~#**************#~
I got a laptop in my back pocket
~#**************#~
My penll go off when I half-cock it
~#**************#~
Got a fat knot from that rap profit
~#**************#~
Made a livin and a killin off it
~#**************#~
Ever since Bill Clinton was still in office
~#**************#~
With Monica Lewinsky feelin on his nutsack
~#**************#~
Im an MC still as honest
~#**************#~
But as rude and as indecent as all hell
~#**************#~
Syllables, skill-a-holic (Kill em all with)
~#**************#~
This flippity dippity-hippity hip-hop
~#**************#~
You dont really wanna get into a pissin match
~#**************#~
With this rappity brat, packin a MAC in the back of the Ac
~#**************#~
Backpack rap crap, yap-yap, yackety-yack
~#**************#~
And at the exact same time, I attempt these lyrical acrobat stunts while Im practicin that
~#**************#~
Ill still be able to break a motherfuckin table
~#**************#~
Over the back of a couple of faggots and crack it in half
~#**************#~
Only realized it was ironic, I was signed to Aftermath after the fact
~#**************#~
How could I not blow? All I do is drop F-bombs
~#**************#~
Feel my wrath of attack
~#**************#~
Rappers are havin a rough time period, heres a maxi pad
~#**************#~
Its actually disastrously bad for the wack
~#**************#~
While Im masterfully constructing this masterpièce
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
‘Cause Im beginnin to feel like a Rap God, Rap God
~#**************#~
All my people from the front to the back nod, back nod
~#**************#~
Now, who thinks their arms are long enough to slap box, slap box?
~#**************#~
Let me show you maintainin this shit aint that hard, that hard
~#**************#~
Everybody want the key and the secret to rap immortality like Ι have got
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Well, to be truthful the blueprints
~#**************#~
Simply rage and youthful exuberance
~#**************#~
Everybody loves to root for a nuisance
~#**************#~
Hit the Earth like an asteroid
~#**************#~
Did nothing but shoot for the Moon since (Pew!)
~#**************#~
MCs get taken to school with this music
~#**************#~
‘Cause I use it as a vehicle to “bus the rhyme”
~#**************#~
Now I lead a new school full of students
~#**************#~
Me? Im a product of Rakim
~#**************#~
Lakim Shabazz, 2Pac, N.W.A, Cube, hey Doc, Ren
~#**************#~
Yella, Eazy, thank you, they got Slim
~#**************#~
Inspired enough to one day grow up, blow up and be in a position
~#**************#~
To meet Run–D.M.C., and induct them
~#**************#~
Into the motherfuckin Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
~#**************#~
Even though Ill walk in the church and burst in a ball of flames
~#**************#~
Only Hall of Fame Ill be inducted in is the alcohol of fame
~#**************#~
On the wall of shame
~#**************#~
You fags think its all a game, til I walk a flock of flames
~#**************#~
Off a plank and, tell me what in the fuck are you thinkin?
~#**************#~
Little gay-lookin boy
~#**************#~
So gay I can barely say it with a straight face, lookin boy (Ha-ha!)
~#**************#~
Youre witnessin a mass-occur
~#**************#~
Like youre watching a church gathering take place, lookin boy
~#**************#~
“Oy vey, that boys gay!”—thats all they say, lookin boy
~#**************#~
You get a thumbs up, pat on the back
~#**************#~
And a “way to go” from your label every day, lookin boy
~#**************#~
Hey, lookin boy! What you say, lookin boy?
~#**************#~
I get a “hell yeah” from Dre, lookin boy
~#**************#~
Ima work for everything I have, never asked nobody for shit
~#**************#~
Get outta my face, lookin boy!
~#**************#~
Basically, boy, youre never gonna be capable
~#**************#~
Of keepin up with the same pace, lookin boy, cause—
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Im beginnin to feel like a Rap God, Rap God
~#**************#~
All my people from the front to the back nod, back nod
~#**************#~
The way Im racin around the track, call me NASCAR, NASCAR
~#**************#~
Dale Earnhardt of the trailer park, the White Trash God
~#**************#~
Kneel before General Zod
~#**************#~
This planets Krypton—no, Asgard, Asgard
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
So youll be Thor and Ill be Odin
~#**************#~
You rodent, Im omnipotent
~#**************#~
Let off, then Im reloadin
~#**************#~
Immediately with these bombs Im totin
~#**************#~
And I should not be woken
~#**************#~
Im the walkin dead, but Im just a talkin head, a zombie floatin
~#**************#~
But I got your mom deep-throatin
~#**************#~
Im out my Ramen Noodle
~#**************#~
We have nothin in common, poodle
~#**************#~
Im a Doberman, pinch yourself in the arm and pay homage, pupil
~#**************#~
Its me, my honestys brutal
~#**************#~
But its honestly futile if I dont utilize what I do though
~#**************#~
For good at least once in a while
~#**************#~
So I wanna make sure somewhere in this chicken scratch I scribble and doodle enough rhymes
~#**************#~
To maybe try to help get some people through tough times
~#**************#~
But I gotta keep a few punchlines
~#**************#~
Just in case cause even you unsigned
~#**************#~
Rappers are hungry lookin at me like its lunchtime
~#**************#~
I know there was a time where once I
~#**************#~
Was king of the underground
~#**************#~
But I still rap like Im on my Pharoahe Monch grind
~#**************#~
So I crunch rhymes, but sometimes when you combine
~#**************#~
Appeal with the skin color of mine
~#**************#~
You get too big and here they come tryin
~#**************#~
To censor you like that one line
~#**************#~
I said on “Im Back” from The Mathers LP 1 when I
~#**************#~
Tried to say Ill take seven kids from Columbine
~#**************#~
Put em all in a line, add an AK-47, a revolver and a 9
~#**************#~
See if I get away with it now that I aint as big as I was, but Im
~#**************#~
Morphin into an immortal, comin through the portal
~#**************#~
Youre stuck in a time warp from 2004 though
~#**************#~
And I dont know what the fuck that you rhyme for
~#**************#~
Youre pointless as Rapunzel with fuckin cornrows
~#**************#~
You write normal? Fuck being normal!
~#**************#~
And I just bought a new raygun from the future
~#**************#~
Just to come and shoot ya, like when Fabolous made Ray J mad
~#**************#~
‘Cause Fab said he looked like a fag at Mayweathers pad
~#**************#~
Singin to a man while he played piano
~#**************#~
Man, oh man, that was a 24/7 special on the cable channel
~#**************#~
So Ray J went straight to the radio station
~#**************#~
The very next day, “Hey Fab, Ima kill you!”
~#**************#~
Lyrics comin at you at supersonic speed (J.J. Fad)
~#**************#~
Uh, summa-lumma, dooma-lumma, you assumin Im a human
~#**************#~
What I gotta do to get it through to you? Im superhuman
~#**************#~
Innovative and Im made of rubber so that anything you say is ricochetin off of me and itll glue to you and
~#**************#~
Im devastating, more than ever demonstrating
~#**************#~
How to give a motherfuckin audience a feeling like its levitating
~#**************#~
Never fading, and I know the haters are forever waiting
~#**************#~
For the day that they can say I fell off, theyll be celebrating
~#**************#~
‘Cause I know the way to get em motivated
~#**************#~
I make elevating music, you make elevator music
~#**************#~
“Oh, hes too mainstream.”
~#**************#~
Well, thats what they do when they get jealous, they confuse it
~#**************#~
“Its not hip-hop, its pop,”—cause I found a hella way to fuse it
~#**************#~
With rock, shock rap with Doc
~#**************#~
Throw on “Lose Yourself” and make em lose it
~#**************#~
“I dont know how to make songs like that
~#**************#~
I dont know what words to use.”
~#**************#~
Let me know when it occurs to you
~#**************#~
While Im rippin any one of these verses that versus you
~#**************#~
Its curtains, Im inadvertently hurtin you
~#**************#~
How many verses I gotta murder to
~#**************#~
Prove that if you were half as nice, your songs you could sacrifice virgins too?!
~#**************#~
Ugh, school flunky, pill junkie
~#**************#~
But look at the accolades these skills brung me
~#**************#~
Full of myself, but still hungry
~#**************#~
I bully myself cause I make me do what I put my mind to
~#**************#~
And Im a million leagues above you
~#**************#~
Ill when I speak in tongues, but its still tongue-in-cheek, fuck you
~#**************#~
Im drunk, so, Satan, take the fucking wheel
~#**************#~
Ima sleep in the front seat
~#**************#~
Bumpin Heavy D and the Boyz, still “Chunky but Funky”
~#**************#~
But in my head theres something I can feel tugging and struggling
~#**************#~
Angels fight with devils and heres what they want from me
~#**************#~
Theyre askin me to eliminate some of the women hate
~#**************#~
But if you take into consideration the bitter hatred
~#**************#~
I have, then you may be a little patient
~#**************#~
And more sympathetic to the situation
~#**************#~
And understand the discrimination
~#**************#~
But fuck it, lifes handin you lemons? Make lemonade then!
~#**************#~
But if I cant batter the women
~#**************#~
How the fuck am I supposed to bake em a cake then?
~#**************#~
Dont mistake him for Satan
~#**************#~
Its a fatal mistake if you think I need to be overseas and take a vacation
~#**************#~
To trip a broad, and make her fall on her face and
~#**************#~
Dont be a retard—be a king? Think not
~#**************#~
Why be a king when you can be a god?
