Yo prepare for the worst This next verse is the face of death Me without lyrics is like a porn flick without sex Illmatic, my lyrical skills are Jurassic With more flavor then Skittles when I'm digitally mastered I go off like a cannon and blow up the planet with "No Fear," like them clothes white boys be wearin I'm tougher than denim, lethal like venomous snake bites The marijuana makes my eyes bright red like brake lights There ain't a party I couldn't rock, believe that There ain't a microphone brave enough to give me feedback I'm strong, my word is Bond like James Niggaz be tryin to test, but they 'week' like seven days MC's run away when I kick it; they act so chicken they should come with a large drink and a biscuit My style's radioactive, massive atomic I plan to push the Earth in front of Halley's Comet Breakin the +Facts of Life+ down like Tudy, I'm raw like sushi with more +Vocab+, than three fuckin Fugees So recognize or be hospitalized cause lyrically on a scale of one to ten I'm twenty-five Chorus [Canibus] Yo, yo, a little bit of weed and some Henessey got me ready to set it with kinetic energy See I need much more energy then my enemies If I wanna make more Bill's then Bellamy So I could be on MTV with women constantly tellin me I resemble Billy Dee I make fly rhymes to get my name on the scene Then when I'm on the scene I do shows to get the green Then I take the green, buy a automobile machine for that thing on page 43, in Jet Magazine Canibus is the ultimate executioner's dream Swingin the guillotine, cause whenever the head is severed from the human body with a sharp enough weapon the brain remains conscious for ten seconds Long enough for me to give you one last message And when you get to Hell you can tell Lucifer I said it Don't ever get it confused, fuckin with Canibus the human Rubix Cube like you got somethin to prove Yo, whoever grabs the mic after me'll get booed Get everything in the club thrown at you and your crew From Moet bottles to bar stools, fruits and foods You got a album out, you get hit with your CD too Runnin outside, cryin, lyin, denyin that you ain't The Gay Rapper, but you got fucked by him What's the difference?

Approximately fifty years ago under the direction of President Harry Truman and in the interest of national security A group of twelve top military scientific personnel were established This group's primary objective was to desensitize us to the truth And to suppress the material evidence that our planet is being visited by a group of extraterrestrial biological entities called the grays Tune in to channel zero (8X) [Canibus] Yo, sometimes the road to the truth is, so elusive it's confusin And reality becomes illusion If I showed the masses where we was at or where we was goin I'd shatter the social balance of the world as we know it I'm talkin bout the grand deception, of 1947 When our souls were sold to the heavens for technologically advanced weapons Crystal enhanced, brain implants, and mind control methods MJ-12 is not majestic And the focal point of our problems on this planet are not domestic You can accept it or be stupid and be a skeptic and fail to recognize the secret society's deathwish Ninety-seven percent of our Presidents were Masons Responsible for launderin trillions of dollars from the nation for the construction of underground military installations Abductions and cattle mutilations Experiments on human patients can take place in several subterranean bases A hundred and fifty stories below a basement With knowledge of genetic information, you need to fear science not Satan Cause through the manipulation of certain biological agents they create strange creations Top secret special operations Low frequency sounds and lasers, people like Carl Sagan that didn't believe in the Drake equation were tryin to keep Western civilization on the need-to-know basis Well you need to know that this is a game and we're bein betrayed and played in the worst way Tune in to channel zero (8X) [Canibus] Yo, the holy script from Genesis 1-26 says, "Let us make man in our image under our likeness" First of all who's THEY? You see if God was truly a single entity that's not what he would say We as the Elohim, Gods and Goddesses posess a marvelously monsterous subconscious Lifeforms that speak, in very high pitched sounds and squeaks Short staccato clicks and beeps A highly advanced form of speech Even though to us it seems like they only chatterin they teeth They used to swim deep in the oceans beneath Til they fins transformed into limbs and they started to creep Then they evolved into mammals with feet And walked right from the shorelines onto the beach They used gravity, cause it's actually the only force around that could slow time and the speed of light down The energy grid network, opened the gateway from Earth to any point in the universe Livin organisms and various, geomagnetic gravitational, anomaly areas Space expedition teams in the lunar regions reported seein, decapyramids and tetrahedrons Liquid filled shoes, is what they used to walk across the moon without leavin a clue of where they been for the past twenty-three billion years Before life on the surface even appeared I hope you become aware what I'm spittin in your ear was intended to stimulate your left-brain's hemisphere I know it sounds weird, all these motherfuckin answers and questions to the grand deception Tune in to channel zero (16X) |

Male Voice: Is that all soldier? Canibus: Sir, yes sir! Male Voice: Is there anything you need? Canibus: No, sir! Male Voice: Report back to me after the briefing. At ease! |

Artist: Canibus
Album: Can-I-Bus Song: What's Going On Producer: L.G. Time: 3:52 (Intro: sample) "What's.. what's.." "What's going on? What's going on?" (4X) (Canibus) The club scene is a regular hangout spot for unclean Women in tight jeans, fronting like queens Chicken heads, who should be home taking care of their eggs Instead, they're always in the club flirting with men Now, I don't care about them hypenoholic bitches All I'm concerned with is who's bringing their burners in to burn niggas While security practice is a mediocre precaution Niggas is still stealthily sneaking their firearms in Often, niggas be acting like they're marksmen But couldn't hit a stationary object So, how you gonna hit a moving target? Especially if you alcoholic The party was coconuts until you spoiled it Nigga, what's going on? Chorus: Canibus "samples") "What's going on? What's going on?" What's going on these days? Can't do no Hip Hop shows without the gunplay "What's going on? What's going on?" What's going on? Why is everybody packing? "While you rapping, I'm busy trying to sneak the gat in" -> Havoc "What's going on? What's going on?" What's goin on these days? Can't do no hip-hop shows without the gunplay "What's going on? What's going on?" Before you blaze, think about the lives at stake "You got a gun up in your waist, please don't shoot up the place" -> Biggie (Canibus) Aiyo The other night I seen some kid getting loud, running his mouth 'Til somebody pulled the damn thing out, then shots rang out This nigga in front of me got his back blown out On the floor, with a piece of his small intestines hanging out I had to scream on the bouncers to carry him out They said, "Nah, them niggas is still busting in the crowd" Then they ducked down close to the ground, as the bullets whizzed by Praying to Allah, 'cause they don't wanna die But neither do I, fuck it, I gotta be here As a rap artist, it's a vital part of my career I swear, y'all niggas need to chill with that Bringing your handguns to every goddamn club I perform at Everything from semi-autos to MACs Chrome or black, plastic gats and all that Believe it or not, the government wants that So they can use that as an excuse to shut down rap What's going on? Chorus (Canibus) All of my Hip Hop niggas should feel what I'm speaking upon A subject that was touched by Nas and Pharoahe Monch Bullets, being shot from guns, guns being carried by thugs Who come to the clubs, to shed blood Bear in mind, that every time a nigga reaches for chrome He jeopardizes more lives than his own To some this record ain't even relevant, until you experience How a bullet can shatter your dreams in a millisec' By some thug cats, who didn't take that By busting a gat, they could render somebody handicapped And trapped, in a wheelchair over nothing With the gift of walking and running snatched from them What the fuck is going on? (Chorus to fade) |

(Canibus)
Yo 6 o'clock every morning you waking up yawning To the sound of your alarm clock alarm About an hour from now You should be at the place of employment Which is annoying cause it's so boring Your co-workers are talking too loud for you to ignore them It affects your occupational performance You wonder why your work load is so enormous Because your boss just laid off three quarters of the whole office People get depressed, they get ulcers From the stress that the corporate environment causes Regardless of how you ultimately wanna solve this Seems to me like you've got one of four choices: You could take a new job offer for more chips Stick it out a little longer or forfeit But my advice to anybody that wants to quit It'll feel much better if you say it like this: (Biz Markie) Take this job and shove it I ain't workin here no more Take this job and shove it I ain't workin here no more Take this job and shove it I ain't workin here no more Take this job, take this job, take this job and shove it (Canibus) Yo, if your boss is a S-O-B Tell him to S-H-O-V-E the J-O-B Put your middle finger up slowly Put it close enough to his face so he can examine it closely Say I ain't workin here no more Who do you think you are? Rip your apron off, throw it on the floor Run to the door, to the payphone Make a toll-free call Tell your spouse what happened and where you are So they can come and get you in the car later on And help you search for a new 9 to 5 job If the unemployment line ain't that long You can take your time printin out W-9 forms Eventually, you'll get on if you try hard enough And you'll get money if you keep punchin your time card enough Maybe you hate it, maybe you love it But if you hate it all you gotta do is get mad and tell the boss to (Biz Markie) Take this job and shove it I ain't workin here no more Take this job and shove it I ain't workin here no more Take this job and shove it I ain't workin here no more Take this job, take this job, take this job and shove it (Canibus) Yo, some occupations are like slave gigs The boss is favored and get placed in something spacious While the most hated get placed in some small cubicle spaces Or get thrown down in the basement, get your stapler confiscated You constantly waitin for a paycheck Twelve months passed by and you still ain't get paid yet Here's a optimistic motto If you ever late for today you could say you early for tomorrow Most 9 to 5 |

Yeah!!! That's the beat right there.
I'm about to black out with 100 bars on some professional shit. So don't try this at home, yo. Yo, yo, yo My style of rhymin is ancient like Aztecs and Mayans Because I recognize its all about timin Me and my freestyle alliance practicin African voodoo science In front of 20 ft. bonfires lookin skyward Calculating May 5, 2000 the nine planets'll be in alignment The arrival of the prophet in the cockpit Of a starship the size of the Hale-Bopp comet With mercury ion rockets And a big ass "Canibus comin soon" poster on the side of it I'm known geographically and intergalactically That's why I got extraterrestrials that wanna battle me They even tried kidnappin me And they would've snatched me If their craft didn't get trapped in the Earth's gravity Engines stalled and failed. Crashed into a farmer's field And that's really what caused Roswell Undercover operatives workin for COM 12 Disguised as a nigga signed with a record deal Lyrically I'm off scale So all hail or get tossed towards Hell, whatever y'all feel Briusin niggas, confusin niggas like Chip Fu from the Fu-Schnickens Hit you with nuclear cruiser missiles Hear the wild wolf growl Styles stockpiled for miles from the ground to the clouds Wack niggas wanna be down but its not allowed Interrupt the cipher unannounced and you'll get punched in the mouth With the southpaw southern fist I'll bust your shit. Swell your lip and get the Bubba shrimp Back the tougher shit. What a wimp You giant Goliath. Niggas get shot with a rubber sling I'm an experiment gone bad. My brainwaves on an encephalograph show that I'm stark ravin mad Your whole scientific staff'll get killed in a nuclear blast When I throw the formula stashed in my hand Flammable liquids in the lab explode And you get stabbed with all the flyin glass Trained to blow up commercial aircrafts Trained in chemical weapons class Just to see how long a nigga's breath'll last I put him in a leather mask Spray his ass with a can of pepper gas Then watch him grab his neck and gag Watch the nigga choke to death as I laugh "You wanna battle?" is the type of question you should never ask Nigga, pick a tougher task. See who the fuck'll last Whoever lose'll get a solderin iron up the ass You need to recognize My hand is quicker than the eye Quicker than the 5 speed Jamiroquai drives A lifespan longer than 9 lives. Infinite rhymes that can't die A nigga with a divine mind I dedicate this to the wise. Dedicate it to dames Dividin myself into 100 ten times You can't deny the offerin's an offer Flows that glow with aurora's the spark of light Water fly like a saucer With the torque of a Porsche Murder a million MCs then autograph all of their coffins Been gettin it on since I been born and I'm a live long And I'm a be gettin it on till I'm gone Look at all the stages I been on. All the songs that I spit on I took an oath to rip everything I get on A nigga like me should have Carpal Tunnel syndromes In the wristbones from grippin microphones this long I'm just a small fish in a big pond And gets pissed off whenever I gets picked on Nigga try to flip and get flipped on My army march a million strong Like the nation of Islam with suede timbs on Extremely hostile Fully armed troops dressed in frog suits and night vision goggles A lyrical lynch mob Shittin on niggas drawn to a hideous form with horns and a mink on Duckin down low like Vietnam fightin the Vietcong Screamin "incomin" when I see a bomb Speak to your leader. Surrender your arms You need about a million more soldiers to even the odds Plus 800,000 to even consider a war And 200,000 more to even look hard You better drop your flag and withdraw My cavalry charge accompanied by a blizzard of wicked metaphors And smash y'all. Attach y'all to the back of my horse And drag y'all across the motherfuckin asphalt 9 out of 10 niggas is frauds You know who you are always talkin about your bitches and your cars Your jewelry and your girls. It's like we from two different worlds You motherfuckers really get on my nerves Cause I'm beyond them, on some futuristic cyborg shit I close my eyes when I freestyle so I could read what picture crossed in Then raise my arms like a sorcerer and cast a fireball into the audience To barbecue your brain organs You feel like you've been thrown in a microwave oven I flame broil suckers and hit 'em with some more shit The raw shit. Call my reinforcements, the four horsemen Take a big piece of chalk and draw a line across the stage pulpit I dare a motherfucker to cross it I'll even call my man Black Rob at two in the mornin Tell him it's important. Tell him to call Sting 3 way and sing a chorus Break your camcorders so you motherfuckers can't record it Call the news, I'll kill your reporters Start a lawsuit, I'll kill your lawyers Fuck the soft shit and fuck what y'all think My album's gold cause my album was the bomb, shit Y'all niggas got your ass beat cause you asked for it Got your picture taken and put in a tabloid Cause you a man and you like to touch little boys You fuck 'em in the ass, then you give 'em cash for it That's some sick shit homeboy A hundred years ago, they'd have took you to see Sigmund Freud You fraudulent. Feminine. Fragile as a feather is With an effortless blow, I'll crack your whole skeleton You think you're better than Canibus, where's the evidence? You got below average intelligence and poor penmanship You need to shut the fuck up cause your breath stink Take fifty cents and purchase a pack of peppermints Battlin me you never win You thought you was the only nigga that could sneak a weapon in? Nigga guess again Cause after I'm finished wreckin this shit I'm a drink a whole bottle of Henney and go fuck a lesbian |

Yo! My offense is a mixture of Mike and Muhammad Knock a nigga unconcious and talk shit In bare-knuckle boxin', speed is the object Weavin' and dodgin' with defensive blockin' So in the ring, you cannot win The top ten become nine dead if I ever decide to hop in With the one-two, one-two shot to the chin knock you out like ten shots of vodka and gin The beautiful blend of power and strength From the top of my head, down to where my toe cuticles end I verbally burn a nigga, Lyrically hurt a nigga, Pull a voodoo verse on a nigga, Kennedy curse a nigga, Who can spit the words quicker than the average man? Who can embarrass a man? Bite you with fangs and mangle ya hands On candid cam, the Canibus can The Canibus can with the stamina to damage a man <Chorus> It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you, Without a strong rhyme to step to I told y'all (C'mon!!) I roast y'all (C'mon!!) So come on (Hold on) Hold on!! It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you, Without a strong rhyme to step to I told y'all (C'mon!!) I roast y'all (C'mon!!)

(OVERLAP 1) "I'll battle you on the net, I'll battle you in the flesh I'll battle you over the phone you can call me collect" "Verbally viscious, telekenetically gifted, Took a minute to exhibit that I'm sick with it" "Have you any idea what I'll do to crews like you How many niggaz in my career I've ran through" "At 1000 degrees celsius I make Emcees melt, Fuck my record label I appear courtesy of myself" "Canibus is the type to fight for mics, beatin' niggaz to death and beatin' dead niggaz to life" "While you niggaz is babblin' my lyrics is travelin' like a javelin to stab you in the abdomen" "The intellectual athelete accurately rappin' so rapidly, Yet he makes perfect sense mathematically" "I walk the B-Lock withe the G-Lock, C-ocked, trynna' get the DR-op on the C-ops" "The Canibus is a animal with a mechanical mandible comin' to damage you spittin' understandable slang at you" "Rhymes richocet off the inner walls of my lungs and go past the tongue faster than bullets come out of guns "Whenever the head is severed from the human body with a sharp enough weapon the brain remains conscious for 10 seconds" "What's the matter with ya'll, I'll spatter ya'll, against the muthafuckin' wall with these raw lyrics I catapault "I'll hop into the back seat of a cab and rhyme, Till the meter says 9, 9, 9, 9!!!" (Verse 1) Yea, it's the C-Quel, the C-Quel, Yo! I'm hardcore from the nappy follicles in my pores To every single pore in my skull Hard from my mouth to my jaws >From my jaws to my torso where my organs are stored And from my balls in my draws to the floor I pray to God they hurry up and start the third World War So I can start World War 4 and murder us all I don't give a fuck if you rich or you poor Don't give a fuck if you got ya' picture in the Source of Forbes I don't give a fuck who won an award On stage tryna' thank God I'll chop ya' tongue off wit' a sword Let they blood pour all on the floor If it ain't a cordless, you gettin' punched in the jaw and hung wit' the cord I'll leave ya' corpse stiff as a board Like frozen meat tryna' thaw then bury you under the morge Gettin' in my way is like jumpin' in front of a car Breakin' the sound barrier, that means the car is in front of the horn By the time you hear it blowin', it's too late to respond By the time you feel it hit chu, I'm gone I'll send ya' to hell where you belong So by the time ya' body hits the floor Ya' spirit won't be in it no more Who could flow for 4 minutes or more Without breaks, without mistakes, without flaws I got millions of styles and I mastered'em all A metaphor matador fast enough to make the bullcharge and crash in the wall (OVERLAP 2) "Whoever grabs the mic after me'll get booed Get everything in the club thrown at you and ya' crew" "I'm the illest nigga alive, watch me prove it, I'll snatch ya' crown with ya' head still attached to it" "I battle you the respect, I'll battle you over a blank check I'll battle you with a gun to my neck" "Ambushin' emcees, jumpin' out the trees like Vietnamese in fatigues covered with leaves" "Next year, you'll be walkin' around the "How Can I Be Down" conference with a laminate, that said "I Got Shitted-On By Canibus" "Turn ya' head round gimmie the cheddar, I'd rather be a lion for a day than a lamb who lives forever" "Fuck ya'll, you don't impress me and no one can test me, an emcee so ill I got AIDS scared to catch me" (Verse 2) Canibus is what the hardcore niggas is waitin' on Debatin' on what the fuck is takin' so long Well I'm here now, verbal ass whippins bout to get shared out Wack niggas bout to get aired out Faggit niggas get they ass teared out Grab a wise man by his goatee and rip his fuckin' beard out Cold beat a niggas ass like Stout Then bust a shot in the muthafuckin' courtroom and watch it clear out A hundred thousand mile warranty Metaphorically, I'll use a hundred thousand styles and murder you orally I took a lion on tour wit' me, made him respect authority Smacked him in the head for trynna' roar at me And there ain't nothin' on this God damn planet that's worth more to me In the name of Hip-Hop niggas could corner me Torture me, slice me then stitch me up like embroidery Way back before gold-plated male and female RCA jacks was used for crystal clear playback I was trynna' blaze ADATS, and if a nigga said my demo was wack? I'd beat his ass and took my tape back "Yea nigga" <smack> "What? Yeah nigga take that" Anybody get outta' line, get they face slapped Quick fast, the Can-I-Bus'll buss yo' ass Then I'll bust you wit' a shotgun blast It's not fun so I don't laugh To me this rap shit is as serious as, the death of a loved one You know how you be feelin' sad That's how I feel when I grab the microphone but niggas don't understand Canibus is unequivocably the illest killin' machine in the industry For the 20th century Trapped in a max security building Sufferin' from a severe illness called brillance (echoes) |

Album: Rip the Jacker Song: Cemantics Producer: Stoupe Time: 3:40 (Canibus) Aight yo Let's talk about the incredible rap flow We can have a ‘Dinner for Five' with John Favreau See, it comes to me natural One of my integral attributes is to be lyrically tactful I can prove who's nice and who's not an emcee Through falsifiable scientific hypotheses In recent times I find it's never been about the rhymes The game is very politicized Those who sympathize with they hearts and minds Show hatred through the mouth, body language and eyes Sometimes I say to myself, ‘Why do I even try?' In spite of whatever happens I'll love it ‘til I die (Canibus) If you don't believe in other dimensions, you've been duped They're the main-ingredients in this cosmic soup See the mouse? Grab it! Edit the edges with Avid Is this the picture of a duck or a rabbit? You see ass and tits? Welcome to madness Please try to interpret the following passage Magneto-hydrodynamic mechanics Translated into Canibus' language you'll never understand it It's on when the crowd is cheering me on Waving their arms like they're doing Falun Gong Firearms three-quarters of a million troops strong In a single file line stretched out a mile long Thermodynamics of the second law Isolated physical systems lead toward greater disorder Across the dry desert in the featureless sand Water is secondary to the meaning of man I know but I won't tell It's more to the human race than polymers, proteins and protocells Chemical evolution L and D form sub-units That come from the love of Hip Hop and rap music (Canibus) The scourge of the words I attack the Earth with I bet you submerge dry and emerge wet, what you think? Confuse my shrink with English the publication refuses to print My daughter likes blue and my son likes pink, man, give me a drink What kind of world are we living in? I think it stinks Whatever life you live it's a quick sighted quiz If you perceive something to be real, maybe it is Force your kids to listen to Dead Prez before they go to bed Send them to school, put them in Special Ed Reinforce their paranoia of the fed's Make sure they grow dreads and they live on the edge The philosophy of the hard-knocks Pan-psychics sit on the block and attempt to talk to rocks In the projects where they harvest the human crop Organic robots that bleed when they get shot If you can survive or thrive in the Jamaican ghetto You deserve the Congressional Medal My heart goes out to all the young bloods The heart has reasons the mind knows not of From the first to the twelfth month I keep a twelve-pump in the trunk for the day when Hell comes Was invincible on the mic when I held one My motto was to blaze all and spare none "I came, I saw, I conquered": Now there's just an empty void Mic Club! Come holla at your boy! // |

Album: Rip the Jacker Song: Genabis Producer: Stoupe Time: 4:12 (Intro: Canibus) Genabis, This is Genabis, Remember this, (Canibus) In the beginning I discovered wordplay, I experimented with some syllables from the first to the third day On the fourth, I searched for the words to say, How to compress complex verbiage in the least amount of space, I was perfect at it and mastered the tactic, On the fifth day I decided I would combine it with mathematics, On the sixth day I became a fanatic, And I couldn't kick the habit, I would just look in the mirror and practice, On the seventh cycle I had to take the day off, I was exhausted, I guessed my work would never pay off, But if it happened to Him, it could happen to me, And if it happened to me it was destined to be, (Chorus x2: Canibus) Yo, Genabis, Exobus, Levitibus, There ain't a mic on this planet I'm restricted to touch, I read the Cosmos, what God wrote, predicted as much, The inhabitants lack faith but resistance is tough, (Canibus) They backslide back to church and call the minister's bluff, They'd rather remain unenlightened than listen to ‘Bus, I blew the fuck up, even though it was short and abrupt, I was the first rapper to ever close orbit the Sun, One small step for man, one huge step for mankind, I am the Red Giant of rhymes, Solar deflectors incinerate you whole in one second, Flow is untested, those that I've threatened fold under pressure, At one hundred and twenty beta cycles, High volts ignite your eyeballs until you see the fire in front of you, Optic codes and rods melt one at a time until you realize you're in Hell, Rip the Jacker's not done with you, I terrorize the rap community with impunity, Blow you to pieces and move elusively through the debris, What my enemies want to do to me is old news to me, Those in pursuit of me will never get through to me, (Chorus x2: Canibus) Yo, Genabis, Exobus, Levitibus, There ain't a mic on this planet I'm restricted to touch, I read the 'Cosmos', what God wrote, predicted as much, The inhabitants lack faith but resistance is tough, (Canibus) First rapper to speak over beats dogmatically, Mixed with Elizabethan drama and tragedy, My motto is to dress casually and live lavishly, Look at the Victorian tapestry in back of me, Notice the post-Renaissance pictures I drew, Hand sketched drawings of the deserts in Nazca, Peru, The following audio propagates the possible truth, To prove I'm the illest so the choice is not up to you, See, the standard ideological definition of a rap model puts Canibus in scholarly periodicals, The article is substantially impressive, More than a message, a working thesis from several different perspectives, The Rosetta Stone of sentences for rap music's tentative, Entered Apprentices this is Genabis, The Rosetta Stone of sentences for rap music's tentative, Entered Apprentices this is Genabis, (Chorus x2: Canibus) Yo, Genabis, Exobus, Levitibus, There ain't a mic on this planet I'm restricted to touch, I read the ‘Cosmos', what God wrote predicted as much, The inhabitants lack faith but resistance is tough, |

I transmit images over the distance Using the inflation premise of ten to the minus thirty-two seconds Back to the Canibus Era, my eponym is apparent Those who hear my efforts got to give me the merit Off lyrics alone I'm a legend But I can't take credit, the English language was not my invention It's the way I put it together The incorrect English editor, can't nobody ever do it better People forget but the history will remember I pled guilty to the charge and accepted the sentence Let the records show I resisted under the pressure My short but precise endeavour to raise the measure (Canibus) Hip-hop forever, that's what I see when I look in the mirror Regardless of whether I'm not a bestseller I'm a first class spitter, the literal literature ripper Painting pictures for intelligent listeners From any and all dispositions The fusion of what's written creates a vision called Canibusism The intellectual division of science and religion People waste their momentum trying to defend it All I do is put it to ink, then put it to print See what you think, maybe I should speak to a shrink I could fix the way they look at the world They read all these books in a barrel but they can't think for themselves Self-contained, I'm all balls, belts and brains Must be strong because no one ever helps Germaine (Canibus) Observe the whole world's pain, and tell me you ain't tired of praying The Catholic faith will never be the same You can be put in chains because you've got a Muslim name Sent to Guantanamo Bay and tortured for days Man, I'd rather buy some land and grow an orchard of grapes Drink vegetable-juice and stay away form steaks and shakes and snakes These rats in the corporate race is fakes Nobody ever gives you what they didn't already take Invest away? You'll be broke ‘til you break Man, you learned to pick a lock, you want to open the gate I mimic haters like flight simulators in air bases Recovered from an inverted spin and now I'm famous Those who respond to Rip the Jacker with hate Show poor taste and only exacerbate their fate MicClub.net, get it right Motherfucker, get it right and get a mic |

Album: Rip the Jacker Song: Levitibus Producer: Stoupe Time: 4:00 (Canibus) I harness the power of the Chakra, Remote viewing into darkness, describing what I see in the process, Are stone statues surrounded by Neolithic objects Geoglyphs on the Pampa, A dose of propylamine makes it feel like a dream, The dream state is the playground for the supreme, Critics attempt to follow a trend, today they call me a charlatan, But tomorrow I will be the God of men, To create a universe all I need is one thousand trillion, trillion degrees, Sodium 22, betatrons and a cloud chamber, Keep the noise down so I don't arouse my neighbours, Got a message from ‘The Falcon and the Snowman', In an unopened Coca-Cola can, Show the whole plan in coded program, Encrypted by a ProScan, modem with a low-band, hold up, let me load it in (Canibus) I was created by intelligent design, You are merely a descendant of the unmodified, You diss me out of pride, But when you're finished talking about money and bitches you're simply out of rhymes, Even my worst album was sublime, If I don't slow down I'll distort the timeline, Back through the time tunnel to a ‘100 Bars' again, A master like the honourable Earl of Caernarfon, The grand architect, Used to be a partisan to Lamarckism theory but I lost the bet, No regrets, you live and you learn, I'm through giving advice, I just give concern, Sterilize my hands to prevent catching the germs, And try to rebuild all the bridges I've burned, I prefer modesty over controversy, But what am I to do when these jerks keep bothering me, Jealous because they can't rhyme like me, And they never had a scientific mind like me (Canibus) I'm above average with verbal semantics, The Aurora Borealis in the form of a rap ballad, They look at me like, "Poor bastard, Why can't you manipulate Billboard with all your metaphor magic?” No matter how hard I practiced, Every microphone I saw, I grabbed it, obviously that's the wrong tactic, I went through a long period of mourning and sadness, When I wrote that Stan shit, But if you want to hear some hardcore Canibus just say so, And I'll come out the egg roll with seven Dead Scrolls, If you can find a better flow, Then I can find a dinosaur on the Galapagos archipelago, Hey, you shouldn't fall for the naivete, Lyrically I'm the illest when my beats is okay, Food for thought, nutrition for the whole brain, Keep your neurotransmitters warm on a cold day, I'm ahead of my time, or so they say, I guess that's why I already feel old and grey, Okay, that's enough knowledge for today, I'm killing them, You better not forget it ‘cause this is Levitibus |

Album: Rip the Jacker Song: M-Sea-Cresy Producer: Stoupe Time: 3:50 (Canibus) Out of the Umbilicus Mundi, This is lyrical lunacy from a human being to speak so fluently, Bars of poetry without precedence, complete par excellence, Listen to the 'Levitibus' testament, To understand me you need help, You've got to see the film ‘The Day After Trinity' written by Jon Else, To understand that, you must know thyself, You should keep listening 'cause Canibus' flow might help (Canibus) To find the answers that we didn't know, Maybe Edgar Allen Poe's description of El Dorado is not so, See, the reason there's no light at the end of the tunnel, Is ‘cause we're really not in a tunnel we're trapped in a bubble, The government hierarchy and the dregs of society, Can you explain why you believe Hell is fiery? We're suffering from symptoms of drapetomania, Slavery isn't over it just took a new alias, The Data Repository establishment and maintenance, Almost turned me into an atheist scared of aliens, Why write lyrics when I can make a better living, Selling freeze-dried venom to wildlife clinics, ‘Cause I hate the thought of being a predictable bore, Once you get used to me you won't love me no more, The ‘Final Soliloquy of the Internal Paramour', What are we all to do when rap music is gone? I hope “God and the imagination are one”, A golden tongue, can achieve synchronicity with the Sun, Transcended beyond the flesh and the blood, ‘cause this is level one, After this album my message is done (Canibus) But you can't battle me, so you'd rather embarrass me, I maintain dignity in the face of calamity, They reach out their hand to me and talk dishonestly, But I read through their syntactic structure like Noam Chomsky, A student so overzealous I motivate my trainers, I'd rather get some now than get some later, Take a break from writing rhymes on paper, recondition my character, Change my nature with seven days of Vipassana, Let go of the stress, man I was deeply depressed, So famished, in fact, I needed a rest, To regenerate my mind, Bless the cornerstone of my rhyme with corn, oil and wine, Then see the light in a luminous paradigm, It became more apparent with time, All I had to do was follow the signs, To be a better man I need help, I've just got to find the link between my inner deity and myself |

Album: Rip the Jacker Song: No Return Producer: Stoupe Time: 4:53 (Intro: Canibus) No Return, No Return, No Return, No Return, There's No Return, No Return… (Canibus) Yo, Scientists gather in a secret place to debate, They photographed the earth from space and saw my face, They tried to translate the innate Asiatic shape, Before the final earthquakes came but it was too late, Only one-eighth of the human race escaped to space, They were chased by flying phenomena to the lunar base, Flotillas of space centers, lasers probed the entrance, DNA code sensors reject old genetics, I presented my cosmic clearance to a patrol of medics, I was injected with sodium pentothal and questioned, I relayed the message the way I was trained to remember it, I showed them the keypad code and told them to enter it, I told them which alphanumeric buttons were sensitive, He snatched it out of my hand and started depressing it, I told him detonation was definite if he kept at it, And he'd never quit, he just lost his temper and flipped, I bowed my head like, ‘I guess this is it,' My ears popped, the music stopped, and I couldn't hear shit (Canibus) The driver jogged around to the front and opened the door, He said his name was Muhammed Jamal and he'd be with me ‘til fall, He said the escort service had called, And the package would be waiting for me at the Winthorp, I said thanks, he grabbed my bags fast and put them in the trunk, Then he ran around to the front, slammed it in gear, pulled off slow, Winded down his window and asked me if I minded if he smoked, I said, “No”, we drove off, Cut my cell-phone off, then I swallowed a tablet of Zoloft, Went to sleep and woke up feeling kind of lost, I asked him what the weather's been like lately, He said he doesn't mind the heater and hates the A/C, He said he had a son who was eighteen and made beats, And I happened to be his favourite emcee, I said, “For real? That's crazy! I'll meet him later. Yo Jamal, could you please do me a favor? When we get to the corner, stop at the bodega,” Hopped out the car, walked inside, The store stereo was playing Feliz Navidad, Got a pack of condoms and walked to the back of the line, There was three Taliban that were talking very loud, One reached in his backside and pulled out a Berretta gun, The last word I heard myself say was a four-letter one, He looked me in the eyes and said, “The drama's never done.” ‘Cause there's no return, No return (Canibus) I heard the ring tone of the red phone, Headquarters informed us there was an explosion in the Red Zone, We were ordered to get ready to go, And to get into our bio-weapons protective gear and clothes, I rode shotgun, my partner Ramirez drove, G.P.S. control gave us coordinates where to go, As soon as we got there I could feel the hot air, For a second I stopped and stared, there was cops everywhere, I told them, “We need to get a square perimeter clear, We've got an hour ‘til nightfall, so light some flares,” I said a twenty-second prayer then ran to the second tier, The lifter was there, then I waved my hands up in the air, To signal that it was clear before I ran upstairs, I could barely see smoke was so thick in the air, I was visually impaired and started to get scared, I heard a woman scream, “Help!” but I didn't know where, I started screaming back, “I'm not going to leave you here!” Saying to myself, damn it's hard to breathe in here, Searched the rooms one by one, like fuck my lungs, Ramirez said, “The fire truck got stuck by the front,” I crawled all the way through the foyer to the end of the hallway, And seen her on the floor next to the doorway, I was half-unconscious, but I just ignored the pain, Helped her to her feet and she had her arm in a brace, All this tar-like black stuff was all on her face, I radioed Ramirez coughing and tried to explain, I heard him say something to me like, “It's all in flames!” There was ceiling debris falling all over the place, I looked her in the eye, she looked into mine, it was strange, Then I blinked for the last time and never saw again. |

Uhh... I don’t understand how a writer would ever get writer's block, so-called. My problem is having too much, and being unable to get it down. [Verse One] Yo why’s tha ripper so ill? That would be an unpardonable breach of confidence fer me ta reveal. He said, “Onea these days all eyes’ll be on me when they look up in tha sky n see tha neon C.” Rhymes inscribed, on a nickel-disk encased in a glass with a ion beam for longevity. For more than ten centuries: impressions n memories. Tha first time-machine inventor will mention me. Canibus was a visionary indeed; he believed light could travel in multiples of C. Tha organic supercomputa that solved tha mysteries of Klein-Kaluza with two blue metric rulas. Liked Cool J, but thought Stephen J. Gould was coola, n he never liked to propagate rumas. Smoked Canary Island cigars, liked America, luxury cars, n beautiful Asian broads. He had a strong mind; he used ta philosophize about rhymes while he was pruning his Banzais. He claimed that he had written tha greatest rhyme of all time, but he would never take it out his archives. He wrote two songs per day n was constantly was experimenting wit his wordplay. In his youth, he did a report on tha Sloan Digital Sky survey; he got a F but he deserved a A. I followed his career from tha first day; it seemed tha lacka support contributed to his inert ways. I seen him put in 24-hour workdays, with deferred pay, undeterred by tha word ‘shame’. Public humiliation was tha worst pain. He was spinnin outta control like a class-five hurricane. He said he wouldn’t want anotha emcee ta suffa tha same especially when there’s nothin ta gain. He was tha illest alive, but nobody would face it. He spit til his tongue was too torched ta taste it. Properly funded corporations carbon-dated his latest creations, to extract tha information. They found it utterly amazin. They claimed tha body of his work was tha same thing as a priceless painting. Never mattered ta him tha art galleries hated him, cuz Thomas Kincade called him. Said he would take ten complete enigmas wrapped in puzzles encrypted in language with sound but without shape or signature. Kept files in his garage on MS-DOS in a fire-proof pod; we thought it was odd. Outside there was a shed wit an Oppenheimer lock. He apparently kept more wax than Madame Tussaud. We were in total awe, cuz it blew our minds; so many rhymes that were intricately designed. He WAS Poet Laureate of his time n if you don’t mind I’d like ta share some of his rhymes. [*instrumental switches*] [Verse Two] Alone in my room, lookin through tha 32x telescope zoom, adjusting tha focusa tha moon. One should not assume tha philosophy of David Hume is nothing more than a subjective conclusion. What is tha maximum field-rate application? Tha runaway glaciation surroundin tha ocean basin affects tha population fluctuation on a continuous basis but that’s jes tha basics. Tha juxtaposition of Can-I-Bus's position; tha precision of something no otha has written, way above n beyond what was intended. The unparalleled malleable annunciation of a sentence. You didn’t go ta college, obviously. I can tell by ur ungodly unintelligible terminology. Ur remarkable odyssey. Tha rhyme’s at modest speech when tha brain orders tha body not ta breathe. Ur competency is not up ta speed, you not in my league. You couldn’t possibly be hotta than me, or oppositely at minus 25 degrees. U'll squeeze but tha condensation makes rifle barrels freeze. Allow me ta speak figuratively. Nigga, please. My intellectual property’s about tha sizea Greece. Ur counselor advised you not ta speak. My counselor advised me ta keep rhymin til they stop tha beat. In tha words of Joseph Heller, "I learned how ta write betta", even though it sorta irked me. He said he didn’t understand tha process of the imagination, but he felt he was at its mercy, which exploits my point perfectly n certainly rein- forces tha reason why nobody's prob’ly eva hearda me. Couldn’t understand what I mean by ill, lest you try ta translate what I print ta film. This is tha line of will, tha circle of time, tha cycle of eternity, tha emergence of one line. Academic phonetics render critics tongue-tied. Tha personified dry humor of cum-laude alumni. A wise man sees failure as progress. A fool divorces his knowledge n misses tha logic n loses his soul in tha process. I obsess with nonsense wit a caricature that has no content. My style is mastaful, multilateral. I could battle a fool n be nat’rally cruel. Words of scorn are a disastrous tool. From my existentialist view, I'm a betta rappa than you. Grab tha mic n rip ya physical fabric in two. My attitude is fucked up but admirable. ‘Diff’rent methods interpreted into diff’rent forms from entirely diff’rent perceptions n seen from diff’rent norms.’ Not just spittin a poem, there’s much more involved. There’s much more piecesa tha puzzle for you ta solve. 48 orders of mechanical laws n rays of creational cause enhance tha cadencea my bars. Maybe I am self-absorbed, but that’s the effect. To find tha cause you should ask my A&R. Today is what it is, but only becuz yesterday was what it was, permitted u’ve hearda Beezlebub. A tale of demons n drugs, pissy drunk in tha club with tha DJ doin tha needle rub. Chances are you neva see me, son. Yeah, I know my name’s Canibus, but I can’t help you if you need a dub. [*instrumental switches*] [Verse Three] I came ta holla at some big-booty bitches n listen ta tha speakers thump. Where you get conceited from? I’m so nice on tha mic they wanna beat me up; it’s deep as fuck. I ain’t seen it all but I seen enough. Really unbelievable stuff. There’s a lota times when I wanna speak but I'm stuck. I should leave this rap shit alone n kick my incredible in rhymes in tha privacya my own home. My imagination is my own; tha liberty ta speak freely lyrically on tha microphone. Wit a pen in my hand, I bring motion ta tha enneagram n become "Cani-Millenia Man". Grave my back with tha emperor's stamp. Been spittin scientific rap since tha 17th cent’ry began. Tryin to escape tha wicked empirea Def Jam in tha land where lyrics are bland n heretics hang. Ev’ry warrior has a axe ta bury but he has ta learn to discern between enemy n adversary. I said to myself, "Germaine this is insane, it’s suicide, it’s controlled flight inta terrain." I fought ta regain controla tha plane but went up in a balla flames n got banned from tha hip-hop halla fame fa two bars I kept hearin in my head ova n ova again. It cost me everythang. [*switches to first instrumental*] [Verse Four] I’m convinced now that more than truth is at stake where people create language that pretends ta communicate. Euphemisms are misunderstood as mistakes but it’s a bi-producta tha ghetto music we make. From an extroverted point of view, I think it’s too late. Hip-hop has never been tha same since '88, since it became a lucrative profession. There’s a misconception in tha movement in any direction as progression. Even though tha potency of it lessens, big money industries writin checks ta suppress tha question, n nobody gives a fuck no more. No one goes ta tha book store ever since tha confluence of Moore's Law. But I stay in the lab like Neils Bohr, his son Aage, Edward Lawrence, n Leo Szilard. Lyrically, I took rap music n turned tha knob ta tha right full throttle n added panache. Why would I argue wit my own conscience ova tha truth? That’s like me tellin myself, “Don’t tell me what ta do.” Dialyses n analyses of battle emcees. Sometimes I say things I myself can’t believe. My lyrical is so skillfully elliptical, I can understand how it makes you miserable. You wonder why I neva let you play ur beats fer me n why I keep my studio enshrouded in secrecy? You wonder what’s my infatuation wit Alicia Keys? "Canibus why don’t you speak ta me?" Yo, I meant it when I said no one can shine on a song that features me. That’s why I said it so vehemently. You need ta place tha hate wit respect. I'm prob’ly the best yet, Poet Laureate! [Outro - James Dickey sample] Generally I take... I go with tha given, ya know, with what comes ta me over, tha celestial wireless...whenever it comes. You're lucky when you get it. |

Album: Rip the Jacker Song: Psych Evaluation Producer: Stoupe Time: 3:51 (Canibus) Yo, some say the pen overpowers the sword The video camera is just as powerful when it records Appalling footage of cops breaking the law Mad at you because of what you saw, now they're breaking your jaw I've been accused of being internally preoccupied ‘Cause the rhymes talk to me and I talk to the rhymes Clinically induced impulses reveal what's hidden Written prescriptions given by qualified clinicians Lafayette pegboards be spinning on turntables To determine the motor coordination available Those able to speak what I spoke repeat my quotes My systematic treatment approach be deep in their throats I inject the frontal lobe of the brain with a lethal dose Of unspeakable dope worse than opium smoke Well spoken like Washington Post or a Fox News Network host Scale intelligence like Wechsler Adult[1] Nonnormative data brain storage matter couldn't capture A couple of years ago they had to put it on Napster Resurrect Rip the Jacker to rip these rappers For every second the clock ticks I'ma attack ya (Canibus) The C-A-N dash I dash B-U-S gets the last laugh before the critical mass In half the speed of a bulb flash fire will engulf that ass Into a molehill of charcoal ash Only to be blown away by a cold draft Wack emcees got no chance, It's so sad They ask Canibus, ‘Will you ever run out of things to say? How much breath can a man breathe in a day?' Needless to say, I think it's kind of deep in a way People be like ‘‘Bis is too ill keep him away' It's a good thing I got patience I've been waiting here longer than Dr. Levinson's time equations Trying to figure out what made men, was it the theory of inflation? Or are we just the product of the ape stem? (Canibus) You think because I'm not on a major I can't bust? And because I come from the ghetto that I can't adjust? Yeah, my disposition was rough But it turned me into a quick learner all I need now is some luck I used to be an undisciplined piece of faecal matter An underdog rapper but I closed that chapter I deal with my adaptive difficulty faster And question my projective technique as a rapper I've lost interest in the battle glory and glamour But I can't control Rip the Jacker when he gets amped-up It doesn't matter we've all got a dark side A loud mouthed Mau-mau from the apartheid Yo, you want to earn your respect? Then come to MicClub.net and see if you can impress the best |

This is Showtime at the Gallows Rip the Jacker (Canibus) Yo I dialogue with Amen-Ra 'til he gives me the nod And replaces me with a supercomputer automaton I don't barter for time I'm a martyr to rhymes And a selfless soldier with pride that was ordered to die A burning star in the sky, my heart is warped with a drive Expressing thoughts through a rhyme, my metaphors are alive It's like I've been crucified, they 'Hate Me Now' like Nas They punctured me through my side, the bleeding was cauterized I was revived after I died Only then I saw how I was truly admired and worshipped like a god It had mired up my mind and showed me a sign I fell off the ocean liner, someone throw me a line Let the world know the truth but it became my demise You know we're even I don't owe you a dime Sometimes I feel like killing myself, they've stolen my shine I wanted to be the illest for a moment in time From the ink to my pen to my pad to the ink in my arm How could one diss song possibly last this long? Tyson ain't the champ no more, them days is gone And Rip the Jacker ain't too stubborn to say when he's wrong (Canibus) I should get twenty dollars and go to Econolodge And tie the sawed-off's trigger around the doorknob Call the police squad and tell them I'm in room 1-0-5 And that a dirty bomb's inside Woke up in the cargo plane Playing Christy Lane for some entertainment while I train in the misty rain 'One Day at a Time, Sweet Jesus' is playing I'm sitting there praying, you probably can't believe what I'm saying But the voice in the back of my head keeps saying, "Germaine This is the real deal, man. This is not a dream. This is not a game The only sixteen you've got for now on is locked and loaded and in your hand Deploy and detach on land. You're the man And the pain is the weakness leaving the body, understand?" And reload with a full pack. Call COMSAT Tell them you need suppressive fire for troops in the back, STAT Insurgence and counter-insurgence, move with a purpose Absolutely mission critical, you never get nervous Applicate the shock-tube to the surface Standby! Blow it! Eyes open with your scope on a terrorist Tell him to go to Hell in Arabic Put a bullet through his narrow neck, watch the wall behind him get wet I'm an animal, I'll murder you and stare at your pets Get the tape! I know where the surveillance cameras are kept (Canibus) If you want a confession, you've got it You want product give me twenty dollars You want gossip, I'll give you logic On any topic, recording the positive data Rip is the best rapper, go confirm the status One million page dissertation written on paper Cheap labour for Pitney Bowe's tree curator My purification process is greater but thinly tapered Verbatim, my album is equal to over fifty acres Can-I-Bus before the Big Bang and after the Big Crunch I've only got to say it once Let there be light and I write a sentence The greatest discovery since opethicus afarensis Back to before Sumerians landed on the canyon In the Cambrian carrying bacteria with antigens And nine-foot stone mannequins The key to nuclear power and Porta Libitinaria Showtime at the Gallows, the Age of Aquarius And space harriers, life's last barrier Showtime at the Gallows! |

Album: Rip the Jacker Song: Spartibus Producer: Stoupe Time: 4:00 (Canibus) Yeah This is Spartibus (Canibus) You want to spar with ‘Bus? Then let's get started ‘cause Atomic thrust turn you into cosmic dust Bomb your borders with Japanese spigot mortars Recompose your composition to sawdust Time is breath, breath is life, life is light Light is no less than capital ‘C' on the mic Beneath the mirage of night, I'll attack you twice Prepare the river sacrifice for my ritual rites Reinforce my habitual likes and dislikes To diss you on the mic ‘cause I'm sick of the hype No one's ever written what I write, compare the calligraphy type Tell me yo, how can I not be nice The royal semen of Caesar frozen in a cryo-freezer On sale for seven figures per millimetre Lethally illegal, I speak to the people In the form of an eagle on top of the Thebes Cathedral With boundless knowledge, like hairless Dalai Lamas With linen garments neatly wrapped around armpits With monasteries in the mountains Trumpets have already sounded, you can't denounce my crown, bitch (Canibus) The game is Chinese chess Countless issues need to be addressed before the East nukes the West Totalitarianistic cause and effect Run the words through a decompressor, recompress the depth Canibus is the most explosive next to meth The inconsistency of the text makes me complex Pay attention to ‘Bis, my intention is this Leave you spatially adrift, suspended in the abyss Marijuana plant owners smell my aroma Contract sycosis sarcoma and retinoblastoma Confederate federal General Lee electric general FCC omni-directional antenna poles IFF, identification, friend or foe This area's restricted, don't let him through He'll mock your style Rock you to the ground with the bite force of a Sarcosuchus crocodile Travel a fiber optic mile before you can smile So don't ask me why and don't ask how (Canibus) ‘Til I'm impressed with the print, I can hear a pin drop like Sprint Once it blends I can stop right then Quantum coupling mechanisms and technical shit Confuses you, but I don't think you're any less if it did Just define what is poetry and what is rap I'll demonstrate how to effectively bridge the gap The answer is simple in fact If the protons don't attack the retina, all we'd ever see is black No ability, no extra-ocular motility Silly emcees can't see me lyrically or visually They'll never be better than me I'll triple team them with the Trinity severed in three and give them nine enemies Climb back to periscope depth in two hours, Surrender and throw in the towel The amalgam of the ultimate album, this is Spartibus power *Rakim samples from Paid in Full's "My Melody" Any MC that disagree with me just wave your arm (4x) Now tear it up y'all, and bless the mic for the gods |
