DX - Wisdom Gathering (32 Bars + Chorus)

DXavier23 · 07-19-2009, 05:42 AM

(Verse #1)
I plan to kill Al Sharpton, bring a gun to reverend's speech
Planning stage for the assassination, a hundred and seven weeks
I remember when I was young, spent the summers in Venice Beach
I always keep it a hundred like the number of senate seats
Finding an emcee that can match my ardor or whose raps are harder
Is like finding a Rastafarian at a tattoo parlor
My attack is smarter, I attract a larger following
Since I come with the truth, its the facts that you are swallowing
I'm back and Im acknowledging, the streets, I aint forgettin ya
I'll always have the corner , in my eye, like my retina
I'm Foreman in his prime, brainstorming in my mind
Recording all the time, but theres no warning or a sign
That Ill be rewarded with the shine, maybe its cause I write different
And since all the execs see is green like night vision
Tight spittin, is hard to promote, to white kids n'
Interesting? Yes. But fair? Life isn't .
I fight with words, cause the pen trumps the sword any day
We better pray, cause raps in worse shape than Chevrolet
Rappers present their food for thought, but its no longer sizzling
When Noah built the ark, it wasn't even drizzling
So I'm already a step behind, of the next divine plot
How do I destroy the unworthy without letting the clever minds rot
Nevermind pop, lets rewind clocks
What If death row never signed Pac
Its better if I stop, I don't want to change the past
But If I dont do something, then Ill have to arrange a mass
Rappers are like numbers on a calendar, Ive learned that's the truth son
Because once you hit the thirties, it's time to turn to a new month
Step out of the booth son, why proceed if your stuck
Marketing sex to girls, that you couldn't legally fuck
Arrested development, even tho we're freed from the cuffs
If you want rap thats fresh and intelligent, just leave it to us

(Chorus):
Im old enough to know, but young enough to learn tho
I dwell below the heavens but above the inferno
Although time is money, let the blunt burn slow
Grab a glass of Merlot, and listen to my words flow
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They want simple over riveting, but my calling wont be limited
Wont crawl when I can climb, even if it extends my fall into oblivion (2X)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Verse #2)
I have so much to accomplish, that Im forever in a rush
I always welcome pressure cause I'm better in the clutch
When my opponent makes a mistake, I never interrupt
Slow play my hand but re-raise, if ever you should bluff
I'm awake, don't need coffee, you can tell my dreams lofty
I pimp like Teddy Roosevelt, carry a big stick but speak softly
Cant get the smell of weed off me, I could detect by that mean walk B
That if I took her out to eat, the check would be costly
My hard earned loot, was garnered , cause my tongue's astute
Ive begun my coup, your futures darker than the lungs of Snoop
I'm a class act, on the fast track, but if pestered, I harass back
You'd have to get shot at a comedy show, to have the last laugh
I'm cast as New Yorks own Corleone, on the throne, I reside as boss
The apple bout to take over, the rest of yawl are Microsoft
If you try to cross, than you'll get chopped up in the guillotine
Challenging me is pointless, like calling shotgun in a limousine
Instead of embracing the Pharoh, yawl tryna bait me to battle
Not knowing they're destined for slaughter, like the fate of a cattle
Your afraid of my shadow, unable to cuff the baton
Don't fuck with the Don, I destroy enemies like sitting ducks in a pond
Muslim extremists put my verses, way above the Qur'an
My beefs are one-sided like the the table the last supper was on
I'm approached by Athena while I'm enclosed in my arena
Ive smoked so many rappers, i've been diagnosed with emphazeema
Issue loads of subpoenas , so Ill have enough witnesses
To see how a man so inquisitive, takes his love and interest in
Hip-hop, and than turns it into a business , n'
Only to see what he concretely envisioned, start completely diminishin
I've learned my lesson, even though I wasn't classically trained
That music is an artform and thats what it has to remain
Yeah, theres cash to attain, but I rather you listen
To me gather my wisdom, that impacts our existence

Chorus:
Im old enough to know, but young enough to learn tho
I dwell below the heavens but above the inferno
Although time is money, let the blunt burn slow
Grab a glass of Merlot, and listen to my words flow
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They want simple over riveting, but my calling wont be limited
Wont crawl when I can climb, even if it extends my fall into oblivion (2X)
