Iâm not here to build a brand.
I donât rap to tell you bout how I killed a man.
Iâm not in this for fame and riches,
or to get laid by bitches.
Donât get me wrong, those things great & terrific
but not, why Iâm doing this music, not for award shows,
or skinny-jeaned, so-called swagged-out wardrobes.
More Facebook friends? Not my motivation,
nor is facetime on video stations.
My face not in the papers? Guess what? Iâll live.
Fake beefs? Iâll take peace branch...olive.
Iâm not enmeshed with this for guest list privileges.
Donât sweat it if Iâm not on top 10 lists of hits.
So why rap then, if not for those reasons you dropped?
I do this for a love of words, full stop.
Words, man theyâre practically beautiful
and beautifully practical,
whether theyâre descriptive adjectives
or verbs of action itâs irrelevant,
all elegant in the right scenario.
Iâm in love with words and want the world to know.
Words, man theyâre beautifully practical
and practically beautiful,
whether street slang
or dictionary suitable, regardless,
they all have a part of my heart this
love for words is why Iâm a word artist.
Strip away the bullshit and what is rap really,
but rhyming words over beats, so logically
to be a good rapper then you gotta know words,
an emcee without words not really an emcee, word?
I donât go to clubs unless Iâm working in âem,
I read books, play Boggle, do crosswords when Iâm shittinâ.
Plus my pun gameâs elevated, I rap puns well,
get it? Donât really care, this not for dumbbells,
