I Am Rap Lyrics by Mesus

Dear Rap

2020

[Intro]
Dear Rap, time to rise from this coffin, on the shelf
Dear Rap, here I go again, talkin' to myself, fuck

[Verse 1]
Dear Rap, time to rise from this coffin, on the shelf
Dear Rap, here I go again, talkin' to myself, yeah
'Cause, I don't just rap, bitch, I am rap
I'm a rare-breed dog, I ain't like you rap cats, that's facts

[Verse 2]
Most of y'all rap on beats, not me, I live in beats
Your favorite rapper is the bomb? I'll blow that bitch to smithereens
I watch the shit that's gettin' passes, like you must be kiddin' me
When my flow is 9-4, you're 'bout to witness history

[Verse 3]
Riddle me this, how my riddles get missed?
When I am literally a riddle, that exists between bass and symbol hits?
Breathin' rhythm out my lungs, spittin' cadences, like guns
Heart make a beat, lyric DNA is in my blood, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
This for every rap, I threw in the trash cans
I'm my biggest critic, you can kiss my ass, man
To everybody doubtin', tellin' me I can't rap
That's pretty funny, how can that be, when I am rap?

[Chorus]
I-I-I'ma do this shit until I die
Aye-aye, art is life, it's like I'm bleedin', when I write
Yeah-yeah, Em is dope, but he ain't make me grab the mic
Rap did, 'cause I am rap, get the shit right, aight?

[Verse 4]
Since the womb, I had rhythm, ain't a tomb that could fit 'em
Try to kill me, really, all you gon' do is make me bigger
Listen, tell the other generas that I ain't goin' nowhere
Oh, yeah, I'ma do a show there, just because you said don't go there

[Verse 5]
I'm where blues and rock meet, like shoes and concrete
Ready to die, all eyes on me, like Big and Pac's beef
Prob'ly goin' over heads, yeah, I'm used to that
Hittin' singles, with a pen, yeah, I don't need to use a bat

[Verse 6]
Crack you upside your head, though, if you're gettin' disrespectful
I won't let it go, better let 'em know
If you say it, better mean it, if you say the shit to me
This shit ain't make-believe, I'll make you disappear like baby-teeth

[Verse 7]
Drop the beat, I'ma speak this loud and clear, so you can quote me
I'm unique, you repeat what you hear, like karaoke
From my feet, to the "me", in the Mesus hat, that's on me
Homie, I belong here, disagree, then you can blow me

[Verse 8]
Straight up, I embody rap, plus I'll body bag
Anybody that take a shot on wax, copy that?
Copycats is all I'm hearin', drop the act, man, y'all ain't scarin'
Any-fuckin'-body, bitch, I'll whoop your ass, and then your fuckin' buddy's

[Verse 9]
Fuck the money, I existed before I became a business
But the business-interest-minded blinded me with interests
Listen, I am not a trend, not a phase, not an industry
I'm rhythm and poetry, and that's what I'ma always be

[Pre-Chorus]
This for every rap, I threw in the trash cans
I'm my biggest critic, you can kiss my ass, man
To everybody doubtin', tellin' me I can't rap
That's pretty funny, how can that be, when I am rap?

[Chorus]
I-I-I'ma do this shit until I die
Aye-aye, art is life, it's like I'm bleedin', when I write
Yeah-yeah, Em is dope, but he ain't make me grab the mic
Rap did, 'cause I am rap, get the shit right, aight?

[Chorus]
I-I-I'ma do this shit, until I die
Aye-aye, art is life, it's like I'm bleedin', when I write
Yeah-yeah, Em is dope, but he ain't make me grab the mic
Rap did, 'cause I am rap, get the shit right, aight?
