Canibus - How Many MC's lyrics

[Chorus] How many MC's must get dissed Before somebody says dont f** with Bis? (How many MC's? ....) ... Dont f** with Bis [Verse 1] Yo, I'm valued as one America's most prestigious Breeds of rapper for oral speeches and ghetto english Canibus, Can-I-Bus is my LLC Limited Liability Corp, can you spell that for me? When I was young I wish I had someone to tell that to me Here's my card, Poet Laureate since 1803 I know people who have written newspapers on me Some are grateful to me, others be hatin on me You wanna bet I ain't the illest? What you tradin' wit G Occasionally I can feel the ripper ragin in me I dunno, maybe it could be how the industry behaved with me And lets say probably the Jamaican in me It could also be Universal wasn't patient with me If they weren't payin me I coulda called it slavery The way they blatantly labeled me Some satanically motivated rapper that was related to beef I know I'm strange but my blood ain't green And I never needed a team because I'm not as dumb as I seem The trinity divided into a dozen light beams The future Ive seen has humbled my dreams To come in famine and disease But lemme chill I sound like Priest, and I dont really feel like gettin deep Yall n***as know anyone of The Horsemen could rip sh** But how many MC's must get dissed? [Chorus](2x) [Verse 2] Ya know, I just think its time to be grateful For every emcee that came through and spit tapeful's of data for you Every album before this, I made it for you Nowadays the truth is I got nothin to prove But I heard him call my name a couple times In a couple of his rhymes and I thought about it a couple of times Is he lookin for a response or is he being a jerk? Or am I just to involved in my work? I thought to myself, "why he put my name in his verse"? When he said I wasn't ill he just made things worse Thats when I recognized what Stan was worth The only man on earth that could reverse the 'Cool J curse' I served him, like a n***a without purpose Constantly takin Rip The Jacker back to my therapist I wasn't prepared for this People wanna embara** Bis for reasons that are not really apparent to me yet What, I can't get signed because I got mad at a vet? How could a couple verses have so much anger in 'em? Dont you know the difference between Rip The Jacker and Bis? Go use the Pythagoris theory and do the math on this Add up every multi syllable paragraph That I've managed to average since January 96 And tell me when you find it you dick ridin' b**h I'm so sick of you bein skeptical always runnin behind my sh** Tell me the truth, you really think its time that I quit? You think maybe I could wholesale these rhymes that I spit? I guess the nicest MC's got tired of Bis And lied to theyselves like they never relied on Bis The real rock of the game, people have climbed on Bis Rhyme mo' sick then anybody out your clique Wit thousands of n***as devout for that sh** I got a couple of b**hes too, I make em bow to the dick The album is sick, some Hollywood biography sh** The difference between ships in bottles, and bottles in ships f**in wit Rip they find your fossils at the bottoms of cliffs Stick 6 mics up your a** even though I doubt it will fit But still how many MC's must get dissed Before somebody says dont f** with Bis? (how many MC's?.....) [Chorus 2](2x) How many MC's must get dissed Before somebody says dont f** with Bis? (How many MC's? ....) ... Dont f** with Bis How many MC's must get dissed Before somebody says dont f** with Bis? "I'll battle you on the net, I'll battle you in the flesh Y'all n***as know the rest," dont f** wit Bis
