Well, on the stage I'm known to break fool

Words together like birds in a flock
Ah yes rhymes on time like the hands on a clock
Well, I'm an epileptic, a skept-a-cleptic
I'm cutting up the beats from the bear, I clept it
I fucked around and then I lost my tooth

Like my man Schneider, I'm a super ho
Making mountains out of molehills and rockin' some mo' skills
Butt naked beats with butt naked fills

Continued evolution of an individual, well, I'll tell ya
Got so many rhymes ya know my throat is sore
