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....
