d-sisive - derek sanderson lyrics
seventeen dollars in the cheque account
i can’t afford wrapping paper and it’s december now
i’m trying to rap for paper and get my message out
sick of being broke as f+ck and the best around
they tell me shave the syllables and dumb the records down
dennis miller + will you cut the obscure reference out
i guess i’m too intelligent for selling out
which makes me too imbecilic to sell my records out
that means stupid, stupid
get the websters out
and i don’t mean emmanuel lewis, goof
b+tch, please
in my city i’m the springsteen of sixteens
an underground hero and i don’t need to pick strings
laughed at as a child…now i’m lapping my idols
my once+favorite rappers are my rivals
and i can k!ll them with my eyes closed, blindfolded
hands both against my spine, tied
high on crack and that’s my quote
.
my daddy named me derek after sanderson
a former boston bruin + slash – boozer – slash + addict
a disaster – slash + left+handed center with a heavy heart
broke and on cocaine, who fell asleep in central park
i named myself d+sisive when i was seventeen
flipping through the dictionary, skimming through the letter “d”
spelled it incorrectly, far from what it’s meant to read
i’m trying to win a juno, not trying to win a spelling bee
promoters spelt it wrong on posters, unintentionally
some added an extra “s”
some added the letter “c”
and had me seeing red like a poinsettia leaf
releasing kettle steam
embarrassed, i went back to derek c
and i accept i’ll forever be connected to a name that was fresh to me
when i was seventeen
all that matters is the voice on the instrumentals
and not some pseudonym on a record sleeve
and that can be meant for me
