Canibus - Behind Enemy Rhymes lyrics
[Canibus - Behind Enemy Rhymes lyrics]
When the curriculum storms
Behind enemy rhymes
When the curriculum storms
It's like this yo, check it out, uh, yo
When the curriculum storms
Modern rap history is reborn
On CD code in the form of a poem
Anyone that studies Canibus' past knows
He has the answers
To questions you're probably not
Advanced enough to ask
Super advanced faculty man
Chairman of curriculum class 85% never pass
10% smile and 5% don't even laugh
When the chalks in my hand
And I'm drawing up graphs
I present the contingency plan
To the top brass
They probably think I'm on speed
I'm talking so fast the body of the rhyme is
Smooth like body and bath
The summary is more explosive than
A meth lab blast
My symmetrical shockwave shatter glasses
My U-235 rhyme hit's critical mass
Apocalypse Now
Lyrical raps blow everything off the map
From green grass to African Baobabs
Spike with an electro mag, aircrafts crash
CDC's in the streets passing out gas masks
Gorgeous women thank me for the oxygen tank
Baby, the chevrons on my arm
Will tell you my rank
Maybe I'll become another casualty
In the field
They'll engrave my tombstone with
The master steel the best beats in the world
Couldn't rival my skill
That's like throwing a cup of water
On a million beached whales
Ran eloquence on an unprecedented scale
Close your eyes
Feel the rhymes cause I'm better in Braille
The Francis Bacon basics
I should reiterate this
We rise to great heights
By winding staircases
The line spiral in a French curve design
When the curriculum storms
Behind enemy rhymes
When the curriculum storms
This is lyrical law
Computer programmed bars come out
Of digital jaws
This is the toughest course in hip hop so far
Behind enemy rhymes
When the curriculum storms
When the curriculum storms
This is lyrical law
Computer programmed bars come out
Of digital jaws
This is the toughest course in hip hop so far
Behind enemy rhymes
When the curriculum storms
Written addendum
Curriculum - attention deficit disorder
Magician flipping them with
Serotonin re-uptake inhibitors
That inhibit them from the
Seeing the vision when
They spit against Bis and them they
Must want to get dissed again
I'm sicker than your sixth
Sense inhale breaths
Through the luffa in my chest
Bigger than wind tunnel vents
Please believe the ammo is live
My fusillade of rhymes fly through your
Ride and go stream fuselage
Blistering speed fools eyes with fast rhymes
Setting world records for Nürburgring's
Fastest lap times
Get chequered flags for 48 tracks of rhymes
A hundred times for vocal signatures
Too complex to sign
Human by design, a mental monster of the mind
Rhetoric versus reality the reason I rhyme
Eternally inclined to shine
Principles a plenitude, I spit at you
Injure you if you step out of line
A transcendental intellectual
A marvel to the medical
Professionals that claim
They have more tests to do
Before they understand what I'm
Equipped to do
Visual psychoanalytical living proof that
I rip you
I rip the roof off like cyclones do
When the curriculum storms I
Rip a microphone too
A molecular miracle in the physical
My lyrical has always
Been something different
For you to listen to
Difficult but legible, forever memorable
Enough to remain in the membrane
Of your mental pool
I train your brain muscles and
Take you to school
Hard rocks become gentle jewels
These are the rules when you in the Mic Club
Mood you never get booed
Aptitude and attitude are your battling tools
Stay calm and spit those bars
If you find yourself behind enemy rhymes
You got to weather the storm
When the curriculum storms
This is lyrical law
Computer programmed bars come out
Of digital jaws
This is the toughest course in hip hop so far
Behind enemy rhymes
When the curriculum storms
When the curriculum storms
This is lyrical law
Computer programmed bars come out
Of digital jaws
This is the toughest course in hip hop so far
Behind enemy rhymes
When the curriculum storms
