For murder raps, I kick my thoughts alone, get remanded
Born alone, die alone, no crew to keep my crown or throne
I'm deep by sound alone, caved inside, a thousand miles from home
I need a new nigga for this black cloud to follow
'Cause while it's over me, it's too dark to see tomorrow..."
-- Nas - The World is Yours
"For now, it's just a big dream,
'Cause I find myself in the place where I'm last seen
My thoughts must be relaxed, be able to maintain
'Cause times is changed and life is strange
The glorious days is gone, and everybody's doin' bad..."

'Cause I find myself in the place where I'm last seen
My thoughts must be relaxed, be able to maintain
'Cause times is changed and life is strange
The glorious days is gone, and everybody's doin' bad..."

"Constant war, several threats of enemy conquest
Crooked cops comb my complex building that's in the rumble
Streets are like a jungle, can't let my cipher crumble
Vivid thoughts, devils resort to trick knowledge
They kick garbage, lust for chicks and quick dollars..."
-- Wu-Tang Clan (Inspectah Deck) - A Better Tomorrow
"Quest the people's choice, we thrive it for the spirit
If you can't hear it, then get the wax utensils
Write my rhymes straight up, don't get with no fancy stencils
The rhymes we get is sweet, we stay away from tart
Our perfection is at work, perkin' up the art
If you want to battle, I suggest you check your clock
Your demise is comin' up, and I want your man to watch..."
-- A Tribe Called Quest (Q-Tip) - Verses From The Abstract

Your demise is comin' up, and I want your man to watch..."
-- A Tribe Called Quest (Q-Tip) - Verses From The Abstract
"Niggas, take off your coats
Ladies, act like gems
Sit down Indian-style as we recite these hymns
See, lyrically I'm Mario Andretti on the Momo
Ludicrously speedy, or infectious with the slow-mo
Heard me in the 80s, JBs on the promo
On my never-ending quest to get the paper on the caper
But now, let me take it to the Queens side
I'm takin' it to Brooklyn side
All the residential Questers to invade the way
Hold up a second, son, 'cause we almost there..."
-- A Tribe Called Quest (Q-Tip) - Award Tour
"The wackest crews try to dis, it makes me laugh
When my track record's longer than a DC-20 aircraft
So, next time that you think you want somethin' here
Make somethin' deffer, take that garbage to St. Elsewhere..."

What it do? Fell into a lyricistic mood after listening to Illmatic. Was just supposed to put The World is Yours, but I decided to hunt around for other stuff just to keep it cool. Anyways, over and out.
