Animalistics

[Intro] As I sit back and reminisce About the first time I read the Book of Genesis And I realize that the creator Gave man rule and domain over all animals Everything that swimeth in the ocean That flyeth in the sky And that creepeth on land Everything under my command So withstand, reprimand And I finally realize what many other people could never see I realize that all of those animals were really me The wild emcee! [Verse 1: The Last Emperor] Who's that legendary man that captures rappers by the twos Part man and part animal like the kind you find in zoos Imagine being hunted and confronted by rival crews The Emperor takes the form of any animal I choose You don't have the skill for this Man destroys I'm rebuilding this Watch me run through the industry like the wilderness Return of the mic king If I catch a wack rapper hiking Not to my liking I stalk my prey before striking There's no time to be rational or diplomatic I'd rather have it wild like National Geographic When emcees set up stares and jungle traps My humble raps become ferocious like jungle cats With two fangs Take the advice of Wu-Tang Protect ya neck or you'll get bicycle kicked like Liu Kang I lie and wait as you violate all my jungle laws I become a black panther with paws and razor-sharp claws My cat form gives me the ability to pounce with the grace and the agility of a tiger they fire shots almost killing me Three emcees run in different directions in sections I transform into a cheetah I bet I could catch them in seconds Now as a human my lyrics are the most pleasing But in the form of a lion I aim straight for your throat region There's no reason for you to mention where my caves are I posess the speed of a puma like Marshall BraveStarr Word is born the emperor be the Don Chasing rap crooks out of my jungle book like Shere Khan Your days are numbered Your rap styles are going under, stunned ya Some rap clown tried to hunt me down like Kraven the Hunter See around my way this is how we do intruders Mankind can't rhyme like the true Lion of Judah [Verse 2: The Last Emperor] Dip, dip dive I socialize with sharp knives In the dark part of the jungle where Tarzan could not survive I been on the trail of an emcee followed your scent Secretly invade your camp and get all up in your tent Invent rhymes out of the norm and transform into a cobra Inject venom into your system now your rap career is ova Told ya I am the inventor who transforms like Perceptor Made from the finest leaders on the Earth like Serpentor You rap fakes besta slam on the brakes 'cuz my style lies awake like a Diamondback snake But wait one emcee saw me slithering He let his tool click "Fire gunshot!" Blowe!! he caught the mule kick Straight to the dome I had to drop the disbeliever And right before his eyes I took the form of a zebra His hunting crew pulled out rifles of all types So I politely took flight, shook off my black & white stripes I'm still a horse, of course, but now a bronco And when I charge things will always fall apart like Okonkwo Come at me with the wrong flow I swell heads like bells from the Gong Show It's Jamal that great gorilla from the Congo But wait Those other 2 emcees that think that they could rhyme great With rhymes like these I swing through the trees just like a primate From a vine I hung One emcee ducked and I swung He knew my arms were powerful like Mighty Joe Young Now here's a sidenote to add onto the session Ask Roddy McDowall or maybe Charlton Heston About the Emperor on wax, CDs and tapes And he'll say there's no escape from the Planet of the Apes [Verse 3: The Last Emperor] From the jungles of Guyana to the outs of Nova Scotia Who quotes the lyrics that are too fercious for poachers The Last Emp Who lyrically remains tax exempt No lie I get you high like a good Indian batch of hemp Yup, no rap job is too tough for me to tackle I'm the Egyptian god Anubis, body of a man head of a jackal Back to attack you It's the black jew One stage I go into a rage like Minotaur and in my maze is where I trap you See most emcees front the role like psychotics I'm high-tech like robotics Deep like under-sea aquatics And I break the sorta mics that no man could ever repair Let me dive into the ocean and catch rappers down there Well, whatta ya know? it seems we have an intruder here Searchin for buried treasure Flippin' rhymes in his scuba gear ((yo I know he bad)) And I'm hot like Atlanta We about to do battle like Aquaman and Black Manta I bring forth ancient spirits from the deep To live to describe it's just some stuff you gotta peep I become a great black shark and my length is 20 feet And to Davy Jones' Locker is where I put that ass to sleep The other diver he had a flow that was sort of identical But now I'm an octopuss with 84-inch tentacles As far as skills he doubted the Emperor's So I wrapped around his neck and then I crushed his vocal chords The last emcee knew the deal He decided to pull his steel I think it's time for him to feel The shock of a black electric eel For real! I'm through rap notes filled with quotes That brother swam to land like Captain Ahab I crushed his boat Then I became the worst animal of all The Last Emperor of emcees a.k.a. Hassan Jamal The all knowing All powerful, time consuming That's when I realized the deadliest animal was human
