lirik lagu invisible inc - emcee rhetoric
how’s a brain storm become a brain hurricane?
smash gl-ss and use the window sill-ables to hold the shattered panes
leave broken english scattered on the gr-ss and after
paint a masterpiece in grim amounts of pounding rain
how can someone leave a crowd and stay a groupie?
how can you be shooting rounds if it’s a line of duty?
why is uni always cheaper than to fix my hooptie?
and sue me, but why’s a girl hit the floor if you slip her a roofie?
how you row when a friendship’s run aground?
and how’s an “o” give your pen tip the run around?
how you grow in a summer drought, snow when the sun is out
yo, how’d the roots come up from underground?
how you know you want the s-x without an ultrasound?
and how’s my girl orbit the sun and never come around?
and important, how’s it coming up to someone with a ton to prove but none to lose
but fame will make you wish that you were unrenowned?
(why, why, why?)
this emcee rhetoric is empty rhetoric
this emcee rhetoric is empty rhetoric
it’s

i wanna know, what’s the sound of one hand clapping?
and if a man spits a verse in the woods and no one happened
to be around to catch it, does it count as rapping
or does he have to spit it in a club in upper manhattan?
how come numbers in latin are letters?
can the sun be under the weather?
cause i don’t know what’s beaming forever
i read a poem at an open mic and then regretted it
went to bed with a woman, but i slept with a sedative
how’s a curse word in rap so bad but it’s no worse if
i sprinkled glitter on it and i penned the word in cursive
why i always gotta pay for sh-t in the free market?
how you drop an arm and a leg and walk away with a bargain?
(i’d be limping)
and speaking of wounds, who’s the target
when the surgeon general’s a private and ceo of
if god wrote the bible, why’d he write some folks in the margins?
an artist has a right to ask, about as much as starvin’
(why, why, why?)

what’s the square root of negative one?
if money is the root of all evil
then why do we demonize the people with none?
if the sum of our parts is stronger than each piece
why do we treat peace like a pipe dream?
how do you fight midnight without a light beam?
i might scream yet if might makes right
then what’s a little brother gotta do to get some respect?
who’s in the middle of sketching the simplest edges
of pictures all begging for better perspective i bet
f-ck it, i won’t bet
i’m asking the questions and getting fed up with the stuff
then again, best question
when’s the last time our president
read a book that didn’t have matches in it?
excuse me, how the f-ck are steroids and celebrity pillow chat
getting more attention in my newspaper
than an escalating genocide
and a broken ceasefire in the middle east?
tell me, am i the only one who feels like
he’s going f-cking crazy in here?
and one more:
what’s the difference between a rhetorical question,
and one that we’re too scared to solve?
