So.... I got reeeally bored. I just listened to a rap song, while watching the music video, and was vividly reminded of a saying of my ex-math teacher: "RAP: Retards Attempting Poetry". Now, some people might find this post offensive, but I'm not here to diss rap in general, in fact, I think there are great rappers out there (for example Eminem). This is mostly centered on the wanna-be rapping based all around flaunting money and doing explicit things with beautiful women.
Without further ado, my humble take on rap lyrics. (Imagine a quick beat behind)
---------------------------------------
I feel the need for a ryhme
Sipping my lemon with lime
So I drop to the basement
Faster than my man Mr. Kent
Throw on my spiffy costume
Scent my rich ass with perfume
Emerge smelling like roses
Taking ladies by the doses
All of them stunning gorgeous
Impressed by my largesse
They flock all around me
As far as the eye can see
Chorus:
This is the life of a rapper
Mine beats your's down the crapper
This is how it is, the truth of it
And I don't give a flying shit
What you make out of this
To all you normal people -
Take this as a diss!
I roll down the freeway
On wheels of silver clay
Molded by these hands of gold
By which your mother was sold
Take this from one who knows
He who can't command, he rows
The ship of someone who can
While living under his ban
And if you can't row the boat
You'll be thrown into a moat
And there you will perish
Wishing you still had life to cherish
Chorus:
This is the life of a rapper
Mine beats your's down the crapper
This is how it is, the truth of it
And I don't give a flying shit
What you make out of this
To all you normal people -
Take this as a diss!
'Cause that's what it is! (A diss!)
That's how you should see it! (A diss!)
You all are less than me! (A diss!)
I'm the motherflipping king! (The king!)
It's the life of a rapper
If I see her, I tap her
I got dibbs on everything
Because I'm the king!
Yeah! (Yee-eeah)
The King! (You got it)
Los Angeles! (That's how it is)
You damn right!

i liked it(: even if it was just for a laugh i though it was very composed. if you took it seriously, I think you could write a true worthy rap song. just focus on more of a optional topic that could lead to more analogies and metophors, etc. and you'll be good to go.
keep it up. youre pretty funny.

Retards attempting poetry...how accurate. I'm not much for things that use language but this was actually really good because it was true. Most rap is nothing more than some guy who's on drugs trying to rhyme and ending up giving us unnecessary details but the night before. Most of it is terrible and I hate it, but this was good
