written to koray, a 15-year-old future rap star
sounds like you been listenin to my man, eminem,
you got the rhythm beat, sweet treat goin on like a rap,
trapped in the sorrow, ya borrow a drum, come along
like a whirlwind chile,file those thoughts away in a post bag,
'cause your mind's doin' a twirl 'round it's own brain squeeze,
please tell me koray, this is the day you come to say yer peace,
you ain't crazy, got slim shady on the tongue, young man done
got outa the crowd, raised his voice loud, stood on the street corner,
grabbed a megaphone! hey kiddo, don't hold back that stacka words
in her head, let 'em out 'fore ya go to bed, tell 'bout yer mamma,
yer heart, the parts you that break apart, stand out here like
a word soldier, let the weapon be yer pen, shoot the ink out,
tap the keyboard, everybody's been lyin' down waitin', doin' nothin'
but pacin' the floor wantin' to hear more, that's what you're here for
'cause nobody owes nobody no excuse, not yer sista, cousin, brother,
dad, so let it loose... i bet you've had just about all you can of that
bad go, gokay, so speak it solid, okay? don't let nobody
tell you you can't, rant the course of the remorse bring it out
in verse, curse the living dead for tryin' to stop ya, turn up the juice,
bruce, let the bass resonate, speak it 'cause ya can't keep it
bottled up in yer heart, and this ain't no spot for saints,
brutha, this ain't just anotha net jive joint, some of us
got ears, y'hear? so let it pour, let it rain, tell us 'bout the
fricking insanity, the vanity of the world, the way a kid
curls up in a fetal position and cries, asking why why why,
the way the wars kill off the volunteers and innocents die....
come on kid, make your bid, place your bet, you got so many words
to spill yet it'll be an armegeddon explosion! let yer brain hurl
from the erosion of the soul soil, coil yerself around
the word pole like a snake, don't fake this shit, man,
don't fake it, kid..... nobody gonna be disappointed,
we'll be anointed, our heads disjointed, torn off from
our collar bones, listenin' to your cries and moans
koray koray... keep it comin', okay? this is a new era for pluses,
zero minus zero is nuthin', kid, keep track of yer writes,
what you gonna do, what you did, write it down,
scream it at the bus stop downtown, in the laundromat,
at the library, at the goddamn ticket booth, 'cause yer blessed
with an early talent, don't let it go, no, don't let it go,
let the words spill, show the world what you got!
yer a hotshot wordmaster, little brutha....
welcome to the type-it-on-in-radio show...
i'm a fan already! throwin' ya a tip! keep it in yer jar...
keep 'em comin', let it freestyle like slim, shady knows the way,
write it down, memorize it, don't throw nuthin away ok?
