Flip The Script

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Brave is the knave who steps up to be slayed

By the one who forgave him for his first mistakes

Hed best behave, or ima send him a wave

Of some shocking volts, he doesnt know what hes talkin about

Hes kickin a bunch of crap so Ill be the judge of that

The boy lacks artistry but still he tries hard to be

An entertainer, but instead hes a waste of

My time and your time so Ill kick the pure rhymes

Whenever youre looking for rap thats exceptional

And credible, straight to the gs you better go

Cause gangstarrs 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

Im the guru, of the g-a-n-g

Taking out scrubs cause they rub me the wrong way

And Ill say, that theyve 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

Im changing the scenery as I make em uncomfortable

Cause most mcs aint 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 listen, I know that youve been missing

All this and so my rhymes are gonna gleem and glisten

Like a gem, and if you are the fake mc type

Ill shine so bright Ill be blinding your eyesight

Your capabilities fall short so ima treat you like a dwarf

On a basketball court still you try to rap

And even claim you got new styles but

Rolling your tongues been playe dout for a while

And you dont sound fly so why are you doing that?

You had a dope track but youre wack so you ruined that

I couldnt make out what you were saying your diction

Is jumbled where as me Im conveying clear thoughts

To a crowd thats most critical

Booty duck rappers like you are just pitiful

I bet you couldnt name more than one pioneer

Cause you didnt pay dues and you got on on outta nowhere

But thats ok cause Im peeping your card

If rap was my house youd be sweeping the yard

As I recline Ill find more chores to give ya

Like moppin the floors or maybe fetchin my slippers

So dont even trip or run off with the lip

Cause as soon as you slip you know Ill flip the script

Chorus

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

Butter roll mcs get dissed like this

Youll never got none son because Ill become troublesome

You rap like a simpleton

And I hate scum yo I can easily deflect your threats

Cause theyre 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 decent, Ill still get props

Ill kick the slick lines til the last one drops

As my powerful skills are unveiled Im 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 it, I bust raps so lay off

Before I steal that so called title that you gave yourself

But you really aint jack so yo you played yourself

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

You know Ill whip you swift when I flip the script
