lyrical battle (cont.)

i dream of bringing on the lyrical battle with Teyga a pimple out of a pore?/ are you sure- it ain`t the other way around?/ like i`ma bust on you with my feet on your floor?/ i`ll be the crashing waves poundin` on your lyrical shore/ more and more/ until you`re vision get`s a lil` crazy and i gotcha seeing four/ your mission`s gettin` a lil` hazy/ i`m supposed to feel threatened/ instead i`m bein` bullied by a baby/ maybe/ you need to take some classes/ get you free passes to jake`s rudeness 101 opent`the masses/ you`ll learnhowto throw decent punches/but i`llstill beat you no matter how good your stance is/ i`ll be like yoda doing dances around you while you`re taking chances on winning/give it up Darth Teya/ it`s futile trying to beat my jedi mind tricks/ but i`ll keep tellin`you till the truth sticks/ like cement on your denial bricks/ so, i guess it`s time for you to try again/ rating, i`ll be waiting for a decent 5 outta 10/ ya think you can handle that? til`then, i`ll be round the AA bend/ write your little rhyme/ pray, then click on send/ hahaha

lyrical battle (cont.)

from lyrical battle w/ Teya Dorado: I dun need to mess anyone up/ wassup/ jake is already/ too corrupt/ and you/ you feelin’ it too?/ I dun need this rhyme t’make you looka like-a foo’/ you already trippin’ / on your feeble words/ I’ll bring your crown t’the ground/ my verse is like a sling shootn’ you down like a puny bird/ and I dodge your comments like I dodge your turds/ha ha/ ma goodness/ I make myself laugh/if only your comebacks were a quarter to my half/ so this is just a sneak/ a funny peak/ of something to look forward to when you return in a few weeks/ but don’t be too quick to speak/ take all that time/ to try to make half a decent rhyme/ I’ll be waiting/ tick tock…ya rite (I’ll be keeping time! ) ha!

On weight…

so everyone`s been asking me, 1.”marchesa, have you been losing weight?” and so the answer is yes. 2. “marchesa, are you eating?” the answer is `not as much as i use to`. which by the way is a good thing cuz i use to eat a lot and indulge in spending 5 bucks here and there, which by the way puts a strain on an almost non-existent wallet to begin with. 3. (and the most important question) “how did you lose all that weight” (coming from 114 to 105). i will answer this question with detailed longetivity, it will blow you away. Every nite between the hours of 10:46-12:33pm, i venture out of my apartment into the night, wearing only the comfort of my pajamas and black flip flops that i`ve borrowed from my sister without her knowledge. then i hop the M10 and get off at the stop near the train station of Metuchen where a park is nearby hidden. In this park is a pond, and not some ordinary murky pond like the ones they complain about in movies about New Jersey, but a placid humble pond where i, at exactly 12:34 immerse myself in. I call it […]
