The New Colossus

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.

Yeah…the way my brain is connected onto my spinal cord

Got me flyin' over the continent on a dinosaur

I rhyme enormous, like a tyrannosaurus

With the force of a thesaurus throughout the course of my chorus

And the reason why my listeners are holdin' their breath

I rock the mic right, like the coriolis effect

In the northern hemisphere, and many men will fear the wrath of me

That's why they actin' passively when I tell 'em to battle me

I could turn ya shirt a shade of purple

And now I got 'em sweatin' like an athlete in a gatorade commercial

But I been spittin' clean like I'm sippin' listerine

I could kick a 16, and have ya ship in smithereens

So if you wanna prevent disasters, then pull your men backwards

Cause they get bent faster than a pair of lenscrafters

And every time I aim and I shoot

I'm like europe when italy became a country cause I gave 'em the boot…grazie!

So come to the promise land, I'll get rid of your misery

I'll be standing at the water like the state of liberty

Yo this music is monotonous, I elevate the process

Standin' at the tip of metropolis like colossus

Call me helios, watching over the port

But I hold a microphone instead of holding a torch

And I'm definitely wearin' the crown

But unlike the world wonder, ain't no earthquake tearin' me down

My brain power is that of a rain shower

On top of the airwaves of a radio plane tower

With eighty aviators afraid of a rainy day

They callin' it air traffic, it's really a scare tactic

So now I got the competition panickin'

Cause I'm so high that I'm walking on the sky like anakin

A jedi knight when I write, fuck a light saber

I could prolly fight vader with a piece of white paper

You a star wars motherfucker natural born looser

You should go and film a porn blooper with a storm trooper

I swarm super duper, I'm droppin' shit like a pooper scooper

Little oompa loompas get taken out like a movie blooper (bdddat!)

The part of passion that's in your heart is unpractical

Yo these artists actin' like leonardo dicaprio

Cause you really thinkin' that your shit don't stink

You on the titanic thinkin' that the ship won't sink

Yeah…the way my brain is connected onto my spinal cord

Got me flyin' over the continent on a dinosaur

Flappin' in the battle on back of a pterodactyl

You rappers are gettin' tackled and temporarily shackled

Incase you care to skedaddle, escape isn’t really plausible

Rap as loud as you want but to me your skill is inaudible

Yo this beat is makin' me turn to a transformer

You goin' need a camcorder to capture the manslaughter

And all of my fans oughta come over my land’s boarders

They saw the statue of liberty and they ran toward her

So why would I dumb it down? I relate to the geeks better

I could prolly speak better if I spit in greek letters

Like kappa, iota, nu, epsilon, tau

Iota, kappa, sigma, homie now you break it down (down, down)

And I’m about to see the dollars

‘Cause like a jewish bakery, I’m makin’ people holla

And a lot of people go to shows

If they had a comic of my concert, every fan would be blowin' os

Little white circles in the voice bubble

‘Cause they diggin’ it like a little kid with a toy shovel

So gather all ya infantry into the trench, quick

‘Cause like lady liberty, kinetics was a french gift

And timmy talent is a hazardous male

Now that I have him backin’ me, rappers will naturally fail

Now that I found the hidden treasure, man I have to prevail

Like the casket of mary magdalene attached to the grail

Call me the savior of the music, new york city is my nazareth

The statue of liberty, lyrically I’m emma lazarus

So give me all your tired, and give me all your poor

And I'mma give you back a fire that they don’t make anymore

And for all the huddled masses that are washin' up on shore

I'mma lift the microphone and hold open the door…yo one love
