my number one favorite, from "the town"
"And as a public school student, I learned from my teachers but became through my music"

and also from "Kings"
"I'm not a king I'm a servant too the desires that tempt me"

true, i've seen lots of artists who are good at one and not the other. it still means a lot to be able to be one of the best at both though. it's kind of like the difference from a rhythm to lead guitarist, sometimes the rhythm guitarists are better at composing the music than the lead but the lead is better at performing/being improvisational.

sorry for the thread jack.

Haha!

My favourite would be from Otherside:

'Then he took a sip, sittin' in the Lincoln
Thinkin' he was pimpin' as he listened to the system
Little did he know it was just as addictive as base
not the kinda hit from the kick drum'

Fucking awesome.

"I want to fly
Can you take me far away
Give me a star to reach for
Tell me what it takes
And I’ll go so high
I’ll go so high
My feet won’t touch the ground
Stitch my wings
And pull the strings
I bought these dreams
That all fall down"
-chorus from wings

also

"We put our glass to the sky and lift up
And live tonight cause you cant take it with ya"
- Irish celebration

"The spirit's there to knock you down
But if you make that the end
You’ll never know the beauty
Of being able to stand up again"

"know that every struggle in life
Is there to teach you a lesson"

"I dont know if its the clothes the hoes or the cars
that make people rap like they're trapped inside these bars
This shit aint complicated man just be who you are"

Otherside is deep. Ironically I heard it the first time I have ever tried Codeine cough syrup or "lean" on the same day.

I love it but after listening to the language of my world 100000000000 times he starts to get a littttle corny with his voice. I guess I get that with everyone though. He's poetic and has unique beats. and now that he's blowing up you all love him. I think it's dope. 206 love yall

I still think that there are rappers just as good as him out there, don't put him on a pedestal.(example: del in "clint eastwood" KILLS it..."you don't perceive with ya eye, ya perceive with ya mind")

But he is really sick.
