favorite line from a rap song?

[kakemono]

my all-time favorite:

KNUCK IF YOU BUCK, BOY!!! KNUCK IF YOU BUCK

-Crime Mob

[PaperSt.]

Music is there with out you or me, we just manipulate,

for better or worse, so let it stituate

-Deltron

[airportlobbytx]

I don't much like rap anymore, except in a slightly ironic, condescending way, but when I was in highschool (graduated in 97), I was pretty obsessed with it. I'd go to bed listening to my walkman or the UT hiphop radio show. Some of those lines are still rattling around in my head:

Gangstarr - that chorus, "It's a long way to go if you don't know where you're going - you don't know where you're going when you're lost."

Or Nas' first appearance (I think) on the MC Serch album, "This is Nas kid you know how it runs/I'm waving automatic guns at nuns.... Serial killer, who works by the phone book...

"The bling bling era was cute but its about to be done, I'll leave you full of clips (read: full eclipse) like the moon blockin the sun"

- Immortal technique

and

"Kool aid no sugar, ham no burger, i guess thats the life of a nigga thats unheard of"

- K-hill

Ghostface, Catch the blast of a hype verse

My glock bursts, leave in a hearse, I did worse

I come rough, tough like an elephant tusk

Your head rush, fly like Egyptian musk

Aw shit, Wu-Tang Clan spark the wicks an'

however, I master the trick just like Nixon,

causin' terror, quick damage your whole era

Hardrocks is locked the fuck up, or found shot

P.L.O. style, hazardous cause I wreck this dangerous

I blow sparks like Waco, Texas

[Head Ninja In Charge]

"You shouldnt throw stones if you live in a glass house,

And if you got a glass jaw, you should watch your mouth 'cause I'll break your face." - Ferrari F-50

[ExileOnMainSt]

"I spring train in the winter, around early December. I run suicide drills over and over with the weight of the world on my shoulders, that's why they call me Hova. I'm far from being God but i work god-damn hard. I wake up to birds so when you nerds asleep, I'm catching my second wind the second the first one end."

"I decifer prophecies through a mic and say peace." Nas

"Philly never scared and them niggaz ain't timid there

Them young triggers lose lives by the minute there

It might start but the fight never finish there

They all fucked up tryin to get the gingerbread

A few stacks be the price for a n*gga's head" - Black Thought (The Roots)

This next one isn't a "line" but it's worth reading

"Yo, the education of the Lon-chicka-Lonnie Lynn

Began, began with time

Bein my bloodline is one with the divine

In time brotha, you will discover the light

Some say that God is Black and the Devil's White

Well, the Devil is wrong and God is what's right

I fight, with myself in the ring of doubt and fear

The rain ain't gone, but I can still see clear

As a child, given religion with no answer to why

Just told believe in Jesus cuz for me he did die

Curiosity killed the catechism

Understanding and wisdom became the rhythm that I played to

And became a slave to master self

A rich man is one with knowledge, happiness and his health

My mind had dealt with the books of Zen, Tao the lessons

Koran and the Bible, to me they all vital

And got truth within 'em, gotta read them boys

You just can't skim 'em, different branches of belief

But one root that stem 'em, but people of the venom try to trim 'em

And use religion as an emblem

When it should be a natural way of life

Who am I or they to say to whom you pray ain't right

That's who got you doin right and got you this far

Whether you say "in Jesus name" or "Al hum du'Allah"

Long as you know it's a bein' that's supreme to you

You let that show towards others in the things you do

Cuz when the trumpets blowin, 24 elders surround the throne

Only 144,000 gon get home

Only 144,000 gon get home

Only 144,000 gon get it baby" Common

[angrypork]

"My money used to be thinner than Sean Paul's goatee hair, now Jean Paul Gaultier fills the air" -'Ye

-nas

[indesertum]

Call me subwoofer, 'cause I pump "base" like that jack

My grind's 'bout family, never been about fame

From days I wasn't "Abel/able", there was always "Cain/caine"

new (kinda old i guess) album was pretty good too. i love malice's one liners.

Just say the word, I'll leave your DNA on the curb And stick my dick in your ear and fuck what you heard

-Rakim

Ayo, you think you slick finishin' my rhymes (Shells Complete's This)

I'll see you think quick, go 'head finish this line (And This)

Jin, I wanna suck your . . .(Not This)

Ahh, you not really that smart

-Jin vs. Shells

Classic battle, classic line that everybody bites.

The Cat in the Hat and the mouse ran up the stairs

"That doesn't make no sense!" C'mon who cares?

-Mr. Funke

So, I typed a text to a girl I used to see

Saying that I chose this cutie pie with whom I wanna be

And I apologize if this message gets you down

Then I CC'd every girl that I'd see see round town

and

I hate to see y'all frown but I'd rather see her smiling

Wetness all around me, true, but I'm no island

Peninsula maybe, makes no sense I know, crazy

Give up all this pussy cat thats in my lap no lookin back

Spaceships dont come equipped with rearview mirrors

They dip as quick as they can

The atmosphere is now ripped

Im so like a Pip, Im glad its night

So the light from the sun would not burn me on my bum

When I shoot the moon high, jump the broom

Like a premie out the womb

My partner yellin "Too soon! Dont do it! Reconsider!

Read some litera - ture on the subject

You sure? Fuck it

You know we got your back like chiroprac - tic

If that bitch do you dirty

we'll wipe her ass out as in detergent

Now hurry hurry, go on to the altar

I know you aint a pimp but pimp remember what I taught ya

Keep your heart 3 stacks, keep your heart

Aye, keep your heart 3 stacks, keep your heart

Man, these girls is smart, 3 stacks, these girls is smart

Play your part

Play your part.

[surfed57]

I prophesized to save a man but no one gave a damn

For my nation, the seed of Abraham

Blessed with the tongue of Hebrew

Now we're strung on needles, N' some are plungin' evils

So study N' be wise in these days of darkness

Peace to my nephew Marcus

-Killahh Priest, Liquid Swords

[ExileOnMainSt]

When it balls to steam, it comes to it

we all fiends gotta do it, even righteous minds go through this

True this, history school us to spend our money foolish

Bond with jewellers and, watch for intruders

I stepped it up another level, meditated like a buddhist

Recruited lieutenants with ludicrous, dreams of

gettin cream let's do this, it gets te-di-ous

So I keep one eye open like, C-B-S, ya see me

stressed right? Can I live?

[andrewexd]

[gfunkdocta]

You were a stillborn baby

Mother didn't want you but you were still born.

"Iron Galaxy" by Cannibal Ox

I hang my boots to rest when I'm impressed

So I triple-knot em' if I got em'

"Daylight" by Aesop Rock

Yeah and if I pull down my fly, I could piss on the sky

Cause nigga I'm that high

I pulled up in heaven up in the candy painted ride

And I gave jesus five and I'm still alive

My mind warps and bends floats the wind count to ten

Sin all depends on what you believing in

Faith is what you make it that's the hardest shit since MC Ren

Alien can blend right on in wit' yo' kin

It's happenin' again wish I could tell you when

Andre this is Andre y'all just gon' have to make amends
