“Cellophane,” by Professor Rex
Listen to the original version on Bandcamp
I'm Stephen King, I'm Drew Barrymore, hotter
I'm like Prodigy, I'm a firestarter
What comes around won't go around
Not when I'm in town
Not when I'm on stage
This ain't the 90s
This is Rex's age
The Age of Rex
Like an X-men crossover
You don't know what's gonna happen till it's over
Complicated but ultimately righteous
You can try, but you can't fight this
You can't write, but you might try to bite this
This is easy, took just minutes to scribe this
I'm murdering this shit like Aaron Hernandez
I'm painting pictures like I invented canvas
When I Google my own name it says "did you mean dope MC"
Listen while you can, only a few more months before I stop giving you this shit for free
Time for the chorus, put on your shades
Or you'll be blinded by how bright this is
Boom, I'm ragged and rugged and ripping a rhyme
Tagging and tugging, committing a crime
Dragging and digging, dropping a dime
Flagging and fucking, flipping these lines
I'll judge a cover by its book
After I take a second look
I am my own second opinion
I'm a warlord, not a minion
I'm the best at what I do
But what I do ain't nice
Unless I want to be
Then I'm nice at that, too, see
From the beginning to the end
I don't quit until you're through
Like a 15th century battle rapper, you're all thou's and thy's
But you can't handle the hows and why's, you're all about to cry
My whole life's been red lights & red signs
Always walking a path plagued with land mines
The roads I travel were always been blocked
The doors I approach were forever locked
But no more
Gandhi said
First they ignore you
Then they laugh at you
Then they fight you
Then you win
Fuck that shit
I just win
Boom, I'm ragged and rugged and ripping a rhyme
Tagging and tugging, committing a crime
Dragging and digging, dropping a dime
Flagging and fucking, flipping these lines
Boom, I'm ragged and rugged and ripping a rhyme
Tagging and tugging, committing a crime
Dragging and digging, dropping a dime
Flagging and fucking, flipping these lines
I'm ragged and rugged and ripping a rhyme
Tagging and tugging, committing a crime
Dragging and digging, dropping a dime
Flagging and fucking, flipping these lines
