“Intoduction”

Written by WILL IS ILL (Mike)

So talk your sh*t, about me aint bein legit

How im only 15 and I should just quit

And how im white and from the suburbs and I aint rough

And I don’t have platinum teeth, ive had enough

Of people laughin and putting me down

Like I was a clown or not around

Just because of rap is my sound

But look at me now im living in sheer bliss

So if you talk sh*t about me, you can give my ass a kiss

Adults of the world sit back gaspin

He’s only fifteen, and yet he is rappin

He’s cursing in his rhymes too, how can this happen

I love my mom, dad, sister, no brothers, but cousins

So what’s the gimmick in his music? Got everyone buzzin

Age not a gimmick since Bow Wow and Romeo

Skins not a gimmick since eminem so whata ya know

I got no gimmicks other than my rhythm and skills

And just tryin to spit sh*t that all yall can feel

(Cuts)

You act like just cause im white I should pronounce nike “nike”

And you ask me which of the rappers that I like

I say only the best, which is the ones that are real

Don’t forget the ones with the flows I can feel

Kanye, Mos, and Talib Kweli

So far so good and that’s the first three

Pac, Will Smith, Outkast and the n.w.a.

You diss will smith this is what I say

He’s been around since the start of the game

First rap Grammy is his to claim

Im sure ill get one, hope I don’t jinx myself

Just cause that line, my album sits on the shelf

Next to limp bizkit and Kenny g

Look at me, already causin a riot

Think of my rhymes as a drug, go ahead and try it

One time won’t kill you, just inject it right in your vein

And the feeling you get is damn insane

Get your pad and paper and write down my name

Whether it’s to buy my album or make a complain

I’ll help you spell, that’s M-I-K-E

Petrow, here we go, get ready for the show

wow i didnt know that if you didnt bleep out the words the site will do it for you, cause i forgot some of them. cool

[mfuqua23]

1st off, thanks for pointing out the site will censor for U. Now I won't have to count. But anyway,

This rhyme is real cool. The 1st verse was good enuff for an Introduction. 2nd verse was a good follow up.

[Bracesup]

Hey mfuqua, this site will censor for you. :1-say-yes: (sorry, couldn't resist.)

Next to limp bizkit and Kenny g

Hey, no dissing Limp Bizkit here. :chuks: Anyways, really nice rhymes there. You can flow with lyrics really well. :2thumbs:

[Da Brakes]

I'm liking your stuff man! :2thumbs:

[Mike]

the lyrics are so changed now, as it the song title

its now called "Where i Stand" pena brought up the point that having the first song called introduction isnt that original, and on top of that, this new name basically says the same thing as introduction, but the song name ties in with the last line which regards to the album

heres the update

“Where I Stand”

Written by Mike Petrow (Concept)

Introduction to the album how I start off my game

I’ll distinguish good lyrics from the ones that are lame

Listen to your gangster rap **** and your crunk

Good rappers have a message, don’t write about junk

You might be a little confused like a strange dream

Or love me like I’m mainstream

Think like the same team

But it flows and it goes

And my work all shows

And there’s a message inside that most people don’t know

I can’t be taken seriously

Cause I didn’t grow in an urban location

Matters who keeps it real, that’s how you tell who’s fakin

Even my friends doubt me man, I’ve had enough

At least I don’t rap pissed and front like im tuff

Why should I promote cold hate, sex and fear?

Each rot the earth, God sheds a tear

Teen girls need cash and whore for a buck

To guys with wives, I say what the ****?

Adults of the world sit back gaspin

He’s only sixteen, yet he is rappin

He curse in his rhymes too, how can this happen?

Weird, he spoke the truth how can he know?

Easy, im blind with the cane, but I see all

I understand the world, and its downfall

When I spit it spray, if you get what I say

No stutter or pause I don’t need the delay

I got no gimmicks other than my rhythm and skill

And just tryin to spit **** that all y’all can feel

If you like my rhymes, then go out and buy it

I offer my rhymes like a drug, tell your friends to try it

One time won’t kill you, inject it right in your vein

And the feeling you get is damn insane

Lyrics go to your brain, you’ll understand if you’re smart

And on the way up their they’ll hit your heart

I take no shots, you won’t hear the sound

That’s why I stand upon neutral ground

its amazing comparing the two and how ive grown as a lyracist

well ive told u in person but i love this new title cuz it shows that it is an intro but it is more original,

i think the lyrics are hot too accually wen i was thinkin today i accually wanted to tell u to simple them up a bit cuz all ur lines are complex but in that sence if u spit fast it would be hard to grasp it all so im juss sayin wut i thought earllyer but ill talk to u later bout it cuz mabee im rong but im putin it out there to see wut everyone else says

[Its JP]

Man that was great, the flow was amazing, lyrics were dope, great work man
