[Hook: Canibus] 2012 A.D After Dizaster Flies buzz around a million rappers cadavers 2012 A.D after Dizaster ASCAP still sending checks to the master 2012 A.D After Dizaster Flies buzz around a million rappers cadavers Ask caps still sending checks to the master [Verse 1: Canibus] They want an explanation, they want a reason It's all these goddamn demons Crawling creeping, bounty hunt emcees every weekend Throwing people off the deep end I can't beat them, I'm just glad to be breathing I stretch towards the ceiling Shoulder getting better everyday I work it out, I smoke out Then I go say the verses with my mouth Number one in Hip Hop and I ain't even mean it The worst rapper alive? I don't agree with Choked up, so what? He was defeated But if he's in that zone, he tear you to pieces Stop talking like that, Canibus bark when I rap You gotta factor all the facts I keep it relative so they can understand me I got a bunch of relatives in Miami Money making Manny, big booty Brandy Tom Clancy on a hundred footed yacht named Nancy You seen Germaine's set? You ain't entertained yet? You might wanna catch the main event [Hook: Canibus] 2012 A.D After Dizaster Flyies buzz around a million rappers cadavers ASCAP still sending checks to the master 2012 A.D After Dizaster Flies buzz around a million rappers cadavers ASCAP still sending checks to the master [Verse 2: Canibus] 2012 AD yeah the summer season Some missed the meaning and some will receive it Few consumers purchase the music, some steal it Some really achieve success, some only dream it Some are conceited and greedy but don't wanna believe it They point the finger at others to give themselves credence They search for excuses to try to chop down your roots Bis They try to make you buy back your freedom The brightest beacon becomes stronger not weaken Rip the Jacker's master thesis, love it or leave it They make it sound like I never loved the rhythm of Rap I gave them music to listen to it with rhythm and tact For Ten Thousand Bars Can-I-Bus should get a grammy For Infinite composition theory and planning Status quo antebellum Rap music never thanked me Plus I lost a battle, that's a double whammy You ain't got no empathy than you ain't understanding me Real Hip Hop is channelled through me It ain't no crime to not be the best When I was you acted like I wasn't so what you expect? [Hook: Canibus] 2012 A.D After Dizaster Flies buzz around a million rappers cadavers 2012 A.D after Dizaster ASCAP still sending checks to the master 2012 A.D After Dizaster Flies buzz around a million rappers cadavers ASCAP still sending checks to the master [Verse 3: Canibus] The holy angels are screaming, everything happens for a reason But they don't wanna believe it Hip Hop was everything to me, it's no secret The ink that I write with, is the ink that I bleed with Retrospectively speaking the heart keeps pumping The lungs keep breathing, everything happens for a reason I'ma always have something coming out Infinity is a very large amount I wrote it out and cried out to Jesus the dead got it easy The living gotta pick up the pieces The Lord saved me and show me the meaning Of what it feels like to be dissed and deleted No grief period needed, my mission is completed That's why I started the battle by praising Jesus I stood there in front of the world and took a dagger to the heart Then I launched 10,000 Bars Canibus career is over? It can't be If only Hip Hop would stand with me I don't want your money I want your respect I paid my Hip Hop dues but can't cancel the debt [Hook: Canibus] 2012 A.D After Dizaster Flies buzz around a million rappers cadavers 2012 A.D after Dizaster ASCAP still sending checks to the master
