Animal Hides Lyrics by Dr Syntax

Self Taught

2007

[Verse 1: Dr. Syntax]
Yo, I hold the stage down like it tried to escape
So I had to throw my weight around and bind it with tape
Still, I stay grounded, live in the place
One-Forty-Eight pounds of prime fillet steak
Fake clowns catch a pie to the face
You suckers need to slow your pace down
Start applying your brakes
Ill like I came out of the vagina with AIDS
That's why I got my name out on vinyl in crates
The legend's here, serving suckers like I'm Belvedere
When I enter from the venue rear bet you many cheer
I am the well revered, held it down for several years
Worked a circuit big enough to dissect the hemispheres
I'm fooling with you 'cause in truth I'm just starting out
The rep is minor but the passion you can hardly doubt
I've got the hardest crowds, rowdier than lager louts
Starting bouts, only calming down when they're passing out
In club gigs I can muster up wits
To get the hunnies fronting with puckered up lips
Some bustas wanna rumble and they're running up quick
Against the number one they should run and jump ship!

Man! I'm not a dude with a pimp strut
It's the UK! They don't play my music in stripclubs!
Still I'm producing to sick stuff, this is underground
Its not about how many floozies you picked up
I did the work, I handled the grind
Juggling a nine-to-five so I manage my time
Here's another hot production, I'm back on the line
Then I ship it to your doorstep packaged and signed
Believe the passion that I pack into rhymes
Is actually twice as fat as the aquatic expanse that is dragged by the tides
My charismatic acts will rapidly have you slapping your sides
Until they're tattered as the fabric on animal hides
And if a man would survive I'd leave a taste so sour
He'd be wishing all my patterns were caramelized
Fuck a chariot ride I'd rather gallantly stride
Into battle using rap like a dagger to fight
I'm not a gangster with a slag for a wife
A chickenhead after my treasure like she's Anneka Rice
I like a lass to be attractive and nice, the natural type
And not a tacky slag acting mad cause I'm grabbing a mic

[Outro]
We rock tracks
We've got that style down to a tee
Have you ever in your whole damn life seen a show that can flow so fluidly
