  • One On One With The Drum
    The M-A-D-D, the M-A-X-X
    Express himself on a turntable deck set
    Expect the comp to be eyeing the EX-IT
    I exist for fists to wrap around mic necks
    My guess, anyone who step get their head wrecked
    Dead set on proving we’re the best your headset
    God said, ‘ya wanna lot skill?”, I said, “YES”
    Don’t Test, your arms too short plus your brainless
    And somebody lied if they said it be painless
    We can’t miss, drafting up a new rap language
    Slang which’ll leave nitwits with a brain glitch
    Train with the Hardrock Alliance, we’re dangerous
    And came with more sci-fi than the matrix
    Maxx mix records way pass the BAY-SICS
    When he make the beat…he keep the bass thick
    And I got a flow whether slow or the pace quick
    To fans I spread love, MC’s? I’ll take six
    Line em up, rhyme ruff, make it crime scene
    Hit em with dope line, make em a rhyme fiend
    I lean deep in the beat when I speak
    I write, recite, review, then I tweak
    Switch words, fix plotholes, and truncate
    Then wonder…how much weight can the drums take?
    Some say hard work work like a runway
    So far, no good, perhaps, one DAY
    Monday to Sunday we sharpen skills
    Art instills the mind with a harden will
    But harder still, the love is so fleeting to feel
    Still I build, it’s all about completing the drill
    And just keep on rhyming till percussion is done
    No question who won, when going one on one with the drum
