Dear El-Pee,
|
How's your summer been?
|
Mine's been fine
|
I heard you had a real good time at camp
|
Oh, yeah, I talked to Len, he said everythings cool
|
Oh, yo, I really liked "End To End Burner"
|
That little diss me thing on the internet was pretty funny
|
Yeah it's live sucker
|
Uh, yeah, and I was talking, ya know,
|
trying to sell my records to distributors
|
And they wouldn't take it because, you know
|
Some fat white kid figured it'd be funny to blackball
|
Well, you know, I wrote a little poem about it
|
and I really hope you like it
|
So have your mother read it to you
|
and if you guys like it you can write me back
|
|
I'm a Anticon iconoclast catalyst for cataclysm
|
Tell Fox dissing Sole, bad executive decision
|
Your egosystem's frail, with a spoon I could dissect it
|
Soundin' like Corky got his nubs on a websters dictionary
|
A Ras Kass record and a brand new MPC
|
Pressing all them pretty buttons making wack beats
|
To hell with phat beats I'd rather rock acapella
|
I'd rather be broke and have a whole'lotta resent
|
Not a rich king, a pawn, a pegan for me to pee on
|
Check out 9th street, a big sign, El-Pee got served in neon
|
Trendy indie underground 'cause you haven't got a choice
|
Take away your elitist buddies and you haven't got a voice
|
No five thousand for radio, no hundred thou for adds and banners
|
No paying record stores for all your Rawkus propaganda
|
Well-timed marketing scheme, its cool to be independent
|
But if it was last year you'd be a dun or a Missy Elliot
|
And after your indie bravado and the label has recouped
|
You're broker than when Libra left you crying for a record deal from Luke
|
I strike you awestruck you femanine to blackball
|
I'll be serving you 'till you're serving me ice cream in a mall
|
Some fool said this is an underground Canibus and LL
|
Well that's comedy, 'cause I'll serve all three of y'all
|
Heard Rupert had to starve all the indie artists to feed your ego
|
Running around the Bay looking for Sole with your foot in your mouth
|
I heard you like the Bay (castro) but think four tracks are wack
|
Lost in the ozone and all your mixdowns sound like crap
|
Hiding lack of intellect behind hipster catch phrase and babble
|
Indellibles'll never get a full-length 'cause you don't wanna be outshined
|
Fine, I heard you wanna kill me and get fools after me
|
The only violence you ever witnessed was on Menace ll Society
|
Try to sound deep and got masses fooled by your lack of rhythm
|
I elevate while you perpetuate your malopropism
|
|
[Sole mimmicking El-P]
|
Yo, wha, what did he just call me dun?
|
Yo, I don't know man
|
Yo, I, I don't know what he just called you man
|
Well, yo, go get the books, go get the Bible
|
Yo, man, well apparently you must have ripped all the pages out in the dictionary
|
man, 'cause you've used all the words
|
So I'm never gonna find out what he called me?
|
He's usin' big words against me?
|
Yo, this is intrepid god
|
|
I'm a hip hop artist, you style biting emcee sucker
|
Had a crayon contest with retarted kids and picked the wackest album cover
|
Picked the wrong emcee to diss subliminally, every line dissected
|
Yeah, I diss you on the internet, to your face and on record
|
For the record, I know the muck from which out you have stepped
|
First you sound like Beatnuts, then you're mr. 4,000 syllables
|
One bar, out of breath on stage a failure
|
Gotta quit rockin' mics and start rockin' an asthma inhaler
|
El-Producto, independent as Fox
|
Since when do indie records show up in a W-E-A box?
|
By saying your independent, you belittle the whole movement
|
Real emcee's work hard, ain't got investors to put out their music
|
Underground conspiracy, but this ain't used by No Limit
|
Mad 'cause you didn't blow up, the victim of your own wack gimmick
|
But some fools bought into it 'cause they don't know no better
|
That you're a hamburger pimp, only out for the cheddar
|
Yo, what's a battle emcee that can't freestyle?
|
All those references to imaginary emcee's, come battle me
|
Remember in Boston, you starting calling fools out?
|
And when emcee's tried to battle, you were the first to br |
