Good idea, but the guy's rhymes are weak. Suffers from the Lil' Wayne 'lets say two words that are completely unrelated to each other, but hey, they rhyme!' syndrome.
I could see Talib Kweli killing this, though.

Sick.
But that's how it's supposed to be..random ways that Americans and/or the government start off with small things:Originally Posted by Luminaire
"Look at me, look at me
hands in the air like it's good to be
ALIVE
and I'm a famous rapper
even when the paths're all crookedy
I can show you how to do-si-do
I can show you how to scratch a record
I can take apart the remote control
And I can almost put it back together
I can tie a knot in a cherry stem
I can tell you about Leif Ericson
I know all the words to "De Colores"
And "I'm Proud to be an American"
Me and my friend saw a platypus
Me and my friend made a comic book"
And then can become more powerful and complex:
"Look at me, look at me
Just called to say that it's good to be
ALIVE
In such a small world
I'm all curled up with a book to read
I can make money open up a thrift store
I can make a living off a magazine
I can design an engine sixty four
Miles to the gallon of gasoline
I can make new antibiotics
I can make a computer survive aquatic conditions
I know how to run a business
And I can make you wanna buy a product
Movers, shakers, and producers
Me and my friends understand the future
I see the strings that control the systems
I can do anything with no assistance
Cause I can lead a nation with a microphone
With a microphone
With a microphone
And I can split the atoms of a molecule
Of a molecule
Of a molecule"
Then they can use their power against other people or take advantage of it:
"Look at me
Look at me
Driving and I won't stop
And it feels so good to be
Alive and on top
My reach is global
My tower secure
My cause is noble
My power is pure
I can hand out a million vaccinations
Or let'em all die from exasperation
Have'em all healed from their lacerations
Or have'em all killed by assassination
I can make anybody go to prison
Just because I don't like 'em
And I can do anything with no permission
I have it all under my command
Because I can guide a missile by satellite
By satellite
By satellite
And I can hit a target through a telescope
Through a telescope
Through a telescope
And I can end the planet in a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust"
Then they end it with the "I can ride my bike with no handlebars" to show another generation coming up.
It is a good idea. One of those things that make you think "Dang! Why didn't I think of that?"
And I agree about Lil Wayne. I can't stand him..
He's rediculous. And EVERYONE in Minden is a Lil Wayne LOVER..mainly just because the older guys started to like him and only him..then the girls did..then the young guys did so they could be cool to the girls..and now it's like a cult and if you bad mouth him then you'll get jumped and crap. I can't stand it. Blue popsicles.
But I don't tihnk anythings worse than Mike Jones' repeat re re repeat repeat of stuff cause he can't think of anything else.
Boosie owns though.
Yeah Wayne is pretty overhyped. Not a lot of good stuff on Carter III. 'Dr. Carter' and 'Mr. Carter' which might be the best on the disc.
But that's about it. Lollipop's sample is great. Someone more talented needs to cover it.
I miss "Burn This City", "Fireman", "I Know The Future", and "You Ain't Know"..
I need to meet you one day. Heck I need to meet a lot of people on here.
Maybe Fred will go to the game with me
