i can - u can't

canibus

can-i-bus

ripping them

forty-four curriculum syllabus caliber killing them nigga

y'all niggaz want to fuck with the illest

you can't

y'all niggaz want to talk about lyrics

you can't

watch me take it over the limit

'cause i gets busy as a motherfucker

give me a minute

y'all niggaz want to fuck with the illest

you can't

y'all niggaz want to talk about lyrics

you can't

watch me take it over the limit

'cause i gets busy as a motherfucker

just give me a minute

yo

this is cannibal rap

canibus cancels your stats

my vandals in black'll take a hammer to your motherfucking plaque

a mack eleven when i'm clapping a rap

you can't battle that

your fans need to understand the facts

you ain't even got the balls to rock on the track

if you do

then do the damn thing

and call your man back

i treat you like a lab-rat

and shove a cactus up your ass crack

stop the bleeding with a tampax

in fact

you're so vain you probably think this rhyme is about you

but really

nigga

i'm doing better than without you

lyrically

i'm a mouthful

throw blows too low to crouch too

pick a mic up and joust you

brainstream in the cranium

lyrical arithmo mania

the creator of a greater sum

updated lungs were created by the pyramid builders

with silvers injectors

equipped with k.n.n. filters

to keep out the filth and the dust

when i bust

you hush

or i just sh-sh-shit you and flush

you want hip-hop? then yo

canibus is a must

give a fuck if the shit flop

nigga

i still bust

for real

i don't complain

i don't explain

been profane before i had a name in the game

i spit a verse

delete out the curses

reverse it

and verse it

write it out in cursive

i don't have to learn it

so if you want to teach then teach

but don't preach

if you got something to say

speak but don't reach

yo

tell me what your problem is

why you mad at me?

what's the big tragedy? why you want to battle me?

you the one with all the dough up in all the magazines

every time i look

your ugly ass is on the screen

so what's the fascination with me?

rhymes aside

i'm a small fry

waiting for a little mic time

yo

all i do is write rhymes

if a nigga

disrespect my mic

he disrespecting my pride

i beat you and beat you

'till i defeat you

if you beat me

then i'll regroup

'till the beef is on the meat-hook

'till the gas bleed from the juke

and rap music is read in my book

curriculum carpet bombing leave the street shook

if you want to get at canibus

nigga

get in line

the best rapper in the world reserves the right to decline

y'all niggaz want to fuck with the illest

you can't

y'all niggaz want to talk about lyrics

you can't

watch me take it over the limit

'cause i gets busy as a motherfucker

just give me a minute

y'all niggaz want to fuck with the illest

you can't

y'all niggaz want to talk about lyrics

you can't

watch me take it over the limit

'cause i gets busy as a motherfucker

just give me a minute

yeah

it's the lyrical landmine

got you motherfuckers on stand by

yo

can-i-bus? c.a.n.i.b.u.s

you know i'm the best

yeah

one time when we emcee

magazine clip never empty

motherfucker

don't tempt me

the brainstream

blazing the green
