    AND A MAN SHALL EMERGE

    Emerge

     

    there are six things the lord hates..no seven

    haughtiness

    lying

    murdering

    plotting evil

    eagerness to do wrong

    a false witness

    showing discord among your brothers

             proverbs 6 verses 16 to 19

     

    im so blunt they call me phillys finest

    this spyt is brought to you with the express

    written consent of dgreaves aka your highness

    i stop clocks when i spray my verbal glock

    so timeless

    cock the hammer on my slow burner

    be like nat turner when cats think im spineless

     

    i  believe in gods will but i shall not

    kill you with kindness

    i refuse to engage the morons and the mindless

    what up satan 

    god is with me get behind this

    i cover so much airspace they call me verizon wireless

    2 hours of sleep and 12 hour work days

    still im the finest

    amazing grace i can see

    no more blindness

    learned the hustle in philly

    never am i grindless

     

    yo tanya..hey brother mitchell

    my ex still smiles when i call her tissle

    what up x clan  im no longer malcolm x

    in the middle

    but by any means  necessary

    if you need me just whistle

     

    im not old yet but damn if i aint grizzled

    thats what happens  when you drop

    into the philly fire out of the skittle

    im a baby from the motherland

    i still suckle  at her nipple

    when i contemplate her continuous rape

    i gotta stifle a sniffle

     

    my life is on a perfect vibe

    so you can say im blissful

    im using my exocet missle 

    to blow up this epistle

    dont need to rob roy for a fistfull of dollars

    already got a fistful

    the emergence of brother dee

    is this homily i scribble

     

    and a man shall emerge

    to spread dee word

    drop a spoken word

    thats seldom heard

    cant flex on brotha dee

    if you dont have the nerve

    ive been down with gil scott

    since the word was johannesburg

     

    i take  5 dolla word

    and spyt em like they are  simple vowels

    all i ask for is reciprocity

    to escape the velocity of bullets flying 

    in the philly bowels

    i spyt until im sweating

    please hand me a towel

     

    i pay homage to the spirit who created

    see

    the fish in the sea

    land aminals and fowl

    my astrological is the lion

    so its logical that i growl

    but dont get me riled up

    i will become hannibal lecter

    hello clarice

    you will be disemboweled

     

    everyday i wake up i am on the prowl

    no smile on my face

    just a serious scowl

    i aint lovey dovey

    not rich like thruston howell

    but im eloquent like martin luther

    and my elocutuon reminds  some

    of adam clayton powell

     

    so serious with my sacremental

    no one but allah gave me this voice instrumental

    always grounded by family fundamentals

    the torah..koran and bible in my house 

    not merely ornamental

    i rhyme slow or fast

    but always  sequential

    leave the mob saying  that brothers monumental

     

    im versatile from g rating to access code parental

    from revolutionary diatribes to love sentimental

    live my life like a soldier regimental

    stay away from people who can be detrimental

     

    im rising up to reach my full black potential

    making leaps and bounds

    before the pace was incremental

    always have an opinion

    but im never judgemental

    not accidental

    they know brother dee name in the oriental

     

    and a man shall emerge

    to spead dee word

    drop a spoken word 

    thats seldom heard

    cant flex on dee 

    if you dont have the nerve

    ive been down with gil scott

    since the word was johannesburg

     

    fly little ghetto bird

    fly so damn high

    defy

    the haters and the racists 

    using the spirit of the masai

     

    shout out to the brothers of omega psi phi

    long ago i was gonna pledge

    brother said i had to take a free ass kickin

    sorry i couldnt comply

    still  i love them brothers because 

    they reaching for the sky

     

    what up alpha phi alpha

    and kappa alpha psi

    phi skee and skee phi

    alphas and aka are the truth man

    no damn lie

     

    what law created by man 

    havent i defied

    if im gonna praise a man

    yo it will be me brotha dee i deify

    the proud black man 

    not the artist is who i signify

     

    i satisfy the island spirits

    and leave haters  stupified

    this black guy

    always  views the world with my 3rd eye

    when i get intellectual 

    haters get terrified

    hush little  baby daddy gonna get you a mockingbird

    please dont cry

     

    and a man shall emerge

    to spead dee word

    drop a  spoken word

    thats seldom heard

    cant flex on dee

    if you dont have the nerve

    ive been down with gil scott

    since the word was johannesburg
