I don't allow that nigger shit in my house get a job)Ok I catch your drift this shit is just my passion(I don't give a ***** what it is, you put it in, and I'ma smash it)(I said no that's why, don't even ask againKeep it up and find yourself *****ed up just like your black friends)Yo, it's doper then most rock shit (yeah right)At least it's honest, Ya know you're rightTo like this shit you need some soul, so you ain't on itYou ain't heard of Outkast? Then how you lived a rock riffCop some Pharoahe Monch tickets and whisper mosh pit(Yo, you're still hear? I thought I said to hit the road?)Yo, ***** you Helen KelerDo the twist until your hips explode[Chorus 2x]My god speaks to hip hop prophets through rock riffs'till white boys drop beat boxes in mosh pits[Verse 2]Yo, check out this pieceThis shit is clean (is that so?)(If it's on a building it ain't art)Well what about the sisteene chapel?I bet if you tried to give graph just half the chance you'd did it(Yo, that shit is ignorant, and all it is is vandalism)(Go to school and get paid to paint, not playin' all night)Oh, so if it don't pay it ain't art, and if it does it's all right?I don't get it (It's wrong 'cause you can go to jail you dipshit)Oh, like they fed Christians to lions, how is this shit different?(People can't even read it, how's it art, I thought so!)'Cause art ?? lives like Basciot, ask Picasso(Tell it to the judge when you up in jail dummy)(Don't even bother to call me or your mom for bail money)I ain't asking you for shit, just 10 minutes to peep some flicksIf that's too much to ask you ain't got eyes to see this yetIf you ain't seen ?? you just missed impressionismWhen Dondi flicks rough as Van Gogh the lessons given(I didn't ask you to express yourself, give up your cans kid)***** you Helen Keller, I'll hit the bricks, you hit the canvas[Chorus]
