i've never really been one to rhyme
when i speak unlike some
muhammad ali, a hook to the right
he wins the fight and retells it in prose
nobody knows how he did it
which, rhyme or live to tell the tale, nobody knows
shaquille o'neal, but in kazaam
a genie dreaming only to be freed
steaming mad, due to knockoff child marty
(doc! it's shaq with a turban!)
i do not rhyme, nor in cut time
floor boards caught creaking, cut the footage
i cannot understand why people see my work
as genius, i am no shel silverstein
i am in knots, command my real feelings that lurk
to be seen as i am oh-so well and pristine
on the outside but not in my own mind
it's okay, as long as you enjoy the show
what rhymes with "poetic justice" anyway?
