Gang Starr - Flip The Script lyrics

rate me

Brave is the knave who steps up to be slayed

By the one who forgave him for his first mistakes

He'd best behaveor i'ma send him a wave

Of some shocking voltshe doesn't know what he's talkin about

He's kickin a bunch of crap so I'll be the judge of that

The boy lacks artistry but still he tries hard to be

An entertainerbut instead he's a waste of

My time and your time so I'll kick the pure rhymes

Whenever you're looking for rap that's exceptional

And crediblestraight to the g's you better go

Cause gangstarr's known to be prone to be

Masters of streetwise poetry and turntable wizardry

But still be a cold day in hell when you hear that

Guru or premier ever tell suckers get sales

But they fail in the long run that kid who went gold yo

That was the wrong one but tonight the spotlight is all on me

I'm the guruof the g-a-n-g

Taking out scrubs cause they rub me the wrong way

And I'll saythat they've still got a long way to go

To show they can flow like a real pro

So gimme that loot catch the boot from my steel toe

I'm changing the scenery as I make em uncomfortable

Cause most mc's ain't really got no pull

Watch me stifle em quick with the gift and the wit

Make em quit all that riff as I flip the script

Chorus

Fool listenI know that you've been missing

All this and so my rhymes are gonna gleem and glisten

Like a gemand if you are the fake mc type

I'll shine so bright I'll be blinding your eyesight

Your capabilities fall short so i'ma treat you like a dwarf

On a basketball court still you try to rap

And even claim you got new styles but

Rolling your tongue's been playe dout for a while

And you don't sound fly so why are you doing that?

You had a dope track but you're wack so you ruined that

I couldn't make out what you were saying your diction

Is jumbled where as me I'm conveying clear thoughts

To a crowd that's most critical

Booty duck rappers like you are just pitiful

I bet you couldn't name more than one pioneer

Cause you didn't pay dues and you got on on outta nowhere

But that's ok cause I'm peeping your card

If rap was my house you'd be sweeping the yard

As I recline I'll find more chores to give ya

Like moppin the floors or maybe fetchin my slippers

So don't even trip or run off with the lip

Cause as soon as you slip you know I'll flip the script

Chorus

So as I kick a bit flip with script without a skip

Butter roll mc's get dissed like this

You'll never got none son because I'll become troublesome

You rap like a simpleton

And I hate scum yo I can easily deflect your threats

Cause they're idle my recital will break you down

Just a fight til the end cause I can take ten at a time

Give em all a fair shot to see if any can rhyme

And even if one is decentI'll still get props

I'll kick the slick lines til the last one drops

As my powerful skills are unveiled I'm tippin the scales

And weighing much more than your tall tales

Stop the exaggeration perpetration observe

And make simple notation

Nobody no where no way no how

Is taking me out cause I can throw so you know now

Can you feel itI bust raps so lay off

Before I steal that so called title that you gave yourself

But you really ain't jack so yo you played yourself

And now you look from a distance as you sweat my tip

You know I'll whip you swift when I flip the script
