melvin burch – clap on lyrics
[verse]
yes. i’m a rapper; i don’t know what you think one is
but i know what it feels like to be one kid that-
started! in upper middle cl-ss
bright, energetic, and a tad bit sad, a-
neurotic! inquisitive, idealistic, misfit, distant, emotional little lad
strange by definition; way too strange for definition
if you ask me, a little mad
like a scientist
or my dad when he found all those cuss words in my pad
tell me, how would you feel if i told you lil wayne is why i started rap?
i already loved to write before that fateful night that da drought 3 crashed in my consciousness
but life was starting to get onerous
gpa no longer “honor-ous”
and writing it down was the only thing making any kind of sense
so word after word i would scribe ’til my mind got a hold of itself, and broke from the bind that day-to-day grey would place on my faith to break, rape, and plague me most of the time
i got doper with time… got colder with rhymes
and that coldness showed itself to be my new shoulder to cry on
ironically enough
spilled my guts like i threw up in a cup and knocked it over
eventually, i learned to be more selective and pop a soda
so now i sip dew and make it do what it does when it’s due, never too much, never too much
like luther vandross, here and now i stand tall and hand y’all my heart
however “achey” and “breaky” it may be
like, osiris, i feel dead
he said, “here’s a go-ahead”
“spit with life again”
and that was wordplay, not worship
i’m a wordsmith; peace to egypt, death to twerkin’
and now i’m just standin’ here smirkin’, like-
music is magic; melvin is merlin
