How many MC's

[Chorus]

How many MC's must get dissed

before somebody says dont fuck with Bis?

(How many MC's? ....)

... Dont fuck 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 greatful to me, others be hatin on me

You wanna bet I aint 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 niggaz know anyone of The Horsemen could rip shit

But how many MC's must get dissed?

[Chorus](2x)

[Verse 2]

Ya know, I just think its time to be greatful

For every emcee that came through and spit tape-ful'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 wasnt 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 nigga without purpose

constantly takin Rip The Jacker back to my therapist

I wasnt prepared for this

people wanna embarass Bis for reasons that are not really apparent to me yet

What, I cant 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' bitch

Im so sick of you bein skeptical always runnin behind my shit

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 niggaz devout for that shit

I got a couple of bitches too, I make em bow to the dick

The album is sick, some Hollywood biography shit

the difference between ships in bottles, and bottles in ships

Fuckin wit Rip they find your fossils at the bottoms of cliffs

Stick 6 mics up your ass even though I doubt it will fit

but still how many MC's must get dissed

before somebody says dont fuck with Bis?

(how many MC's?.....)

[Chorus 2](2x)

How many MC's must get dissed

before somebody says dont fuck with Bis?

(How many MC's? ....)

... Dont fuck with Bis

How many MC's must get dissed

before somebody says dont fuck with Bis?

"I'll battle you on the net, I'll battle you in the flesh

Y'all niggaz know the rest," dont fuck wit Bis
