    STRAIGHT SKILLZ (PHILLY FREE STYLIN)

    Turntable

    brotha dee

    no bowing

    respect to the original shaolin

    when im prowling

    bad moon rising

    im howling

    rip shyt im scowling

    sharpen and filling 

    my teeth  so astounding

    the way im sounding

    is rousing the court 

    for my crowning

    short 

    sound systems 

    with this free style philly wisdom

    see the world through my prism

    hear the echo

    of  my flow 

    in the ecosyetem

    i forgo

    ego

    because rico

    in puerto

    know i go 

    en fuego

    shout out to melanie carter

    the fire starter

    miss yay yooo

    pure blow

    100 percent pure uncut

    thats whats up

    count my dough

    in  my chateau

    wear my chapeau

    when i freestyle in toronto

    or belmont plateau

    fly to santiago

    say what up to hidalgo

    sip bordeaux

    with the gringos

    fly a fine virgo

    wearing stilletos

    to trinidad tobago

    yo my linguistic  lingo

    leave haters feelin vertigo

    fo sho

    you know 

    dee stop the damn show

     

    stop..drop..roll

    when dee on the mic

    fiya in the hole

     

    im adventurous

    english professors 

    say im voiciferous

    never rancorous

    never slanderous

    to me  being lecherous

    is odoriferous

    but when im feelin amorous

    ladies glamourous 

    get rapturous

    straight  boisterous

    when i eat  verbs and nouns

    like red meat im carnivorous

    generous 

    with these gems

    when i condemn

    fake cats with free style phlegm

    dont attempt 

    to staunch

    my rpm

    preempt 

    my launch

    but before  i blastoff

    get aloft

    let me cough off

    scoff off

    slough off

    cats taffy soft

    like swine in a trough

    raiding my old rhyme tomb

    like they laura  croft

    go to the mosque 

    before i takeoff

    when i liftoff

    i cut a  swath

    through the unwashed

    vermin

    squirmin

    permin

    their flesh

    when im afterburnin

    they yearnin

    to rhyme like me 

    enroll in my university

    of linguistic diversity

    i brotha dee from philly

    be the epitome

    of free style history

     

    stop..drop..roll

    dee is on the mic

    fiya in the hole

     

    versatile when i rhyme

    be it global crimes

    ghetto grime

    or black love that shines

    pause for the cause

    sip wine

    on the rhine

    river

    i deliver  prime 

    spyt

    climb 

    until im enshrined

    as dee the magnificent

    the sublime

    chill in my chair 

    recline 

    see the maligned

    resigned

    shot with my voice box

    aka..my nine

    because  im disinclined

    be be benign 

    when i rhyme

    i dine 

    on adverbs and pronouns

    astound

    all those around

    brotha dee defines

    and refined

    example of makind

    made  a pact 

    with the black

    long as my medulla is intact

    i will counteract 

    that stereotypical flack

    stack  my plaques

    when i see the collapse 

    of crack

    hopefully

    it will be a footnote in our history

    a momentary 

    laspe 

    of reason or should i say treason

    i use no tact

    for those with the knack

    to subtract 

    form the black esthetic

    the sellouts 

    like roaches  when the lights out

    running about

    shouting black pride

    but  making snide 

    remarks

    them i deride

    with a heat not implied

    but a threat 

    lyrically they wont forget

    drop so much heat 

    look watch them sweat

     

    stop..drop..roll

    dee is on the mic

    fiya in the damn hole

     

    fade 2 black

    end the attack....
