Rap Lyrics Revised: Renegade-Jay-Z ft. Eminem...FYI: This Probably Won't Rhyme. Verse 1.

The following presentation is a translation...if you will...of the lyrics to the song Renegade...lol. This serves no particular purpose. I just felt like doing it. That's just how I roll.




You people
Say that I am not wise, I only discuss matters involving jewelry.
Do you unwise people understand music or do you not comprehend it?
I am influenced by the poverty that you exacerbated.
The same person you gave nothing was able to overcome by doing what one was most capable of in the most thorough manner possible.
I am a reporter of current events told from the view of the impoverished.
An unorthodox individual
You have were previously frightened and remain so.
I have infiltrated popular culture and served as a liason to the poor neighborhoods
Where they sell stolen toasters and they live w/ their maternal parent
And have lost their weapons due to a failed robbery attempt.
A young attractive female has been impregnated because of improper supervision
Abused by an unknown misfit. When child support announces their arrival
He claims to not be available to adhere to their requests.
Now how do you interpret this? Write it down.
I bring this through the impoverished neighborhoods without being in a moving vehicle or seeking refuge
Avoiding being penetrated by a stray bullet that was fired by a young person who does not wish to change their behavior. I just read a magazine that made my day unpleasurable.
How do you critique music that poor people with no belongings can relate to?
I guide them through this anomaly. You do not.
You are incapable of walking on the same path as me.
You are incapable of walking in the shoes that I own.
I am willing to wager all of your posessions that you will lose your tie and your shirt.

SAT Scores, DVRs, and Grannie Panties...


1. None of these 25 Randoms will have anything to do w/ what's in the title...

2. Out of boredom, I pretty much read everybody's 25(or more) Randoms. I was entertained.

3. I started to do another one of these the day after I wrote the first 25 Randoms. But it was too soon and it wouldn't have been random enough.

4. I have astigmatism...in one eye. Myopia(nearsighted) in the other eye. My right eye has always been retarded. But my left eye used to be perfect and it compensated for the other eye. But my right eye is like that friend that doesn't want you to succeed in life. So my left eye was diagnosed to be astigmatic as of 2/7/2009.

5. Something about a girl w/ red lipstick...it does things to me.

6. I'm cool enough to get to class 15 mins late and sit in the back and smart enough to already know what the teacher is talking about and raise my hand for every question.

7. I rarely use the word "swag". And I never use it in reference to myself. It's already been overused and fucked sideways. First of all, swagger is defined as having visible self-confidence. So by saying you have swag(ger)...you're defeating the purpose of the word. It's visible(not spoken) self-confidence(confidence within one's self). Meaning you should be self-confident and other people should notice w/o you telling them. Secondly, the definition doesn't mention anything about wardrobe. If you don't have swagger in some PJ pants and a small white tee, you don't have it at all.

8. At night I wear PJ pants and a small white tee...

9. I have THEEEE most watched status on FB. Not because people wanna know what I'm doing but because...

10. I'm fuckin hilarious.

11. Going to A&T was a decision that was made w/ the little head, not the big one. I went to homecoming when I was 16 and it was a rap after that...too much bait for me to say no. If I could do it all over I would have went to a CC and transferred.

12. I come from a long line of flirts...I'm a flirt. My father is a flirt. Both of my Grandfathers were flirts.

13. I was supposed to get skipped from 3rd grade to 5th...but I got suspended shortly after I was informed getting skipped was a possibility and the people in charge said I wasn't ready.

14. My neighbor got a dog named Hip Hop. And Hip Hop got hit by a car. They managed to salvage his mangled leg and now he walks w/ a limp. So the name was kind of ironic...

15. I make great drinks. I used to improvise w/ whatever I could get my hands on (i.e. an Everclear Pina Colada) Then my bartending roommate put me on w/ other things. Then when I turned 21 and started buying my own liquor, I became an alcohol scholar. There's a Voss bottle in my profile pictures album w/ my signature drink...the 223 D. Named after the apt I created it in...

16. My best friend is my cousin Rashaad. He's the only person in the world who knows EVERYTHING about me. My next tier of best friends are Minnie J, Simms, Jessy J(even though I see her like twice a year), Dawson, D. Charles, J. Powell, Jay, and Russ.

17. I'm more than halfway through this and I don't feel like doing it anymore. But I've been typing this for about 15 mins now and I would hate for that to be a waste of time.

18. Some people hate PDAs(Public Displays of Affection)...I'm indifferent. You won't ever catch Andre Warner kissing or holding hands in public or changing my FB status every time I go on a date. But when other people do it, it doesn't bother me. But like I said...some people hate it. Mainly cuz it's annoying.

19. I say "But ummm...yea" a lot. In texts and in real life.

20. The way I write is the way I talk.

21. I don't have an accent. Sometimes I'll tell people I'm from Oregon and they believe me.

22. I'm an independent person...I don't like having to depend on anybody. If I know I can do something myself, I'll do it myself. I moved in and out of 3 apartments by myself.

23. I go to the club myself sometimes too. Or if I do go w/ a group, I'm still gonna go on a solo mission once I'm in there.

24. I cant think of anything to say for number...

25.

Just Cuz You Put A Cat In The Oven Doesn't Mean It's A Biscuit...Today's Final Thoughts


I did two blogs today. And although I have "Today's Final Thoughts" in the title...you as a reader shouldn't get used to this.

Consistency isn't my thing.

And that statement actually gives me an idea...

THINGS THAT AREN'T MY THING

Waking up before noon
Unprotected sex
Camping
Jumping off anything taller than me
Being on time
Long Conversations
Recycling
Archery
Titty-Fucking(the most pointless activity EVER)
Seatbelts
Chitterlings
Dog-Fighting
Going in clubs
Shaking my dreads
Throwing these bows
Bussing these heads


Hopefully you caught that Crime Mob reference I threw in there...

I'm done w/ this for tonight...I've got nothin.

I'll be back eventually.
