The end is near
So let me just take a second to be serious
Reading is silent; a record delivers an experience
Iâve been reciting irreverent lyrics set to compositions
By Mr. Simmonds for like sixty minutes â thanks for listening
I hope you found it surprisingly pleasing
But if so, be advised: Iâm not the reason
Iâm just a vessel for the original author
Most of the credit should go to Geoffrey Chaucer
He dropped me off at the House of Fame; I just knocked
And the Game taught me not to be ashamed to name-drop
So I confess, Iâm an amalgamation of lots of styles
From Steven Pinker to Big Pun, Nas to Oscar Wilde
So I am sincere when I say this
All praises should go to my reading lists, and my playlists
But if anything I had to say gave you displeasure
I will take all the blame; I should have phrased it better
If I tell a couple stories and it leaves someone angry
Thatâs because of a default in my understanding
Donât get me wrong; I meant to be provocative
Itâs part of my job description when Iâm droppinâ hip-hop lyrics
But Iâm not trying to leave anyone actively furious
I just wanna leave people intellectually curious
You know, in a mischievous sort of way
Thatâs all â there is no more to say
