The One and Only

Member since 2003 · Posted 3 Sep 2003 · 11 comments

I know you want to flesh me Suck and then digest me Fuck and then contest me Rip and sip and test me Trying to protest me But please do not neglect me Silence or reject me Before you try and hurt me When your eyes avert me Or your friends divert me And then you all desert me Know you cannot stop me Slow my flow or top me And when you think you’ve lost me You’ll find that you’ve not cost me A thing but finally forced me To crush who wont endorse me And Standing Tall will be The one and only ME

Sounds like Eminem on an off day.

the last line is a bit infantile, and destroys the flow.

Other than that it has a rather good lyrical flow, a bit like a rap song. And a rap song about the one and only me is hardly original.

But overall quite enjoyable

I appreciate your input, but you know, saying something isn't original is hardly original and really, what IS original? Everything we do has already been done in some form or fashion before...hmmm, seems like a poem in itself. haha.
