Illogic - Me vs Myself (Featuring I) lyrics

This is a little tale I like to tell
Everybody about me
And when I finally meet my
Match on the battle scene check it out, yo

Now I was strolling down the block
Blessing my mind with freestyle scriptures
In battles I emerged triumphant
Within my mental pictures
Then there's a tap on my shoulder
A cipher appears from thin air
Crews form circular groups on blocks
To shock the cyclops, illogic me
Cats gave daps and formal
Introductions of rap names
As I made my way to the
Center I heard this kid bustin
He flipped dope syllables and
Colloquialisms line after line
Rhyme style was undefined but it reminded me
Of mine as I listened more intently


He didn't offend me
Cuz son was kind of fresh
But, as far as Illogic's style goes
Illogic does it best
So, I stepped closer to the center, but yo
Do my eyes deceive me?
Now, for this next line
Most of y'all cats won't believe me
But he reflected my identity perfectly to a T
I was sent, I couldn't move just because
Of the sheer amazement of the
Symmetry between me and he an exact replica
In one line, he said his name was Illogic
So you know I had to step to the imposter

Yo, what what? You think you me?
What's this? You ain't Illogic
You ain't the dopest emcee in the universe
Punk you need toyo
We gotta settle this by battling
What's the deal? What's up?

The site of this imitation has me squeamish
Soon I'll excavate lunch from my sto mach
You couldn't attempt to burn me
Because you're no match

Yo, yo, yo
Hold that cat you're wack so being
You is not an option cuz I rock you
So my superiority stays
Clear like fiber-optics
So stop this treasonous misbehavior
You better call your savior if you
Think defeating me's worth the try
As I speed up the purpose of the
Process of your life: to die
The cipher and I are one and the same
Another one in the flame, I'm toasting
In life, hip hop's a parasite
And it's obvious I'm hosting

Yeah, it's obvious you're roasting
In my presence as I heat up the spot
With my explosive effervescence
Lessons in identity
Being me is impossible, to be you, you strain

Yeah right, I'm you
With the height of my IQ you
Think I'm off the brain
I run insane emcees out the realm of sanity
You're not even worth the oxygen
I bless you with so, as I live I've been
Given the gift to concentrate
And make the fake Illogic levitate off
The face of the earth for what it's worth
I'll abort you mom's face from
Birth to nullify your existence

What? Whatever you're not even clever enough
I spit verses at you in 3-D
Lyrics get complex as pyramids or
As simplistic as teepees
You wanna be me so bad you can taste it
So watch your mouth or I'll slap the taste
My tongues the pencil
And the wack has been erased

Yo, yo you crazy chasing dreams
Word is chance, chase the coal
You're already feminine
So when it's that time of that month
You can't even come with a flow
That shows your lack of skill
You're wack at will
So I guess you'll will it off
And with no delay
I guess you got nothing left to say
The real Ill has sealed the coffin, punk
What?! What now? (That's cool, you got me)

Yo, this is for all the kids
That be biting the third
Biting our joints, biting our shows
You know what's I'm saying?
This joint proves that the only person dope
Enough to defeat us is us
You know what' I'm saying?
This verse is for y'all punks check it out
Yo, yo now now are you done yet?
I hope so
Cuz my next step is to stick a fork in ya
In the road, the end of the road
Forks five di-mensional i'm tri-di-mensional
You should try di-mensional thinking
Cuz you're shrinking
Must be losing tall props
It all stops when the phenomenal instance
So it's logical if the ball drops
In your your team's first string
It's yours if I pull the first
String to string you along
Bring you along on the ride of your lifetime
At which time we'll end your lifetime
You only punch
But I bruise with used lifelines
On all lifelines death's pulling, but mine
I'm out of this planet
You see, my blood's liquidated granite
AS I attack you'll have panic in mind
And to make moves I'll pantomime
To paint silence I'll paint a mime
An audible silence I'll take to mind
So you're now polluted
Whatever concentration you had
Has been diluted am I really that cruel?
Thanks for the flattery
After this battery you'll be
Flattery as plattery whichever comes first
You come first often, I've been told
Your girl knows me personally
From the waste down in my mind I'll rewind
Time and rewinding emcees cM, I see him
In a hypothetic synthetic hallucination
Wouldn't want to be him
That's for your your, check it out
This is Illogic, Blueprint
Me Myself, featuring I
You know what I'm saying?
Bordo punks that be biting
Thinking they be dope enough to take us out
The only person that can take us out is us
You know what I'm saying?
That goes for all the hip hop community
All the REAL hip hop community
All you punks trying to be
Trying to be hip hop
Saying y'all quote unquote "hip hop"
Real heads you're not
You know what I'm saying?
Y'all need to sit back down
Sit back down, listen to this joint
Than cower back in that corner and try
To come up with creative stuff
You know what I'm saying?
This is Illogic, signing off peace
