Participation Prerequisite
Well hey, how you doin, kick back put your feet up
My name is abdominal, watch me rip this beat up
Pull a seat up, you don't wanna miss this
Cuz i can rock a rhyme from halloween to hanukkah
Slumming a typical numbskull outta his complacency
Mainstream or underground, it's all the fuckin same to me
Plain to see you're blatantly whack
Not tryna be rude, i'm just statin a fact
That i be hatin the raps, that be laid onto wax these days
So i'm takin it back, but not back to long gone old school period
Back to a place where you need skills period
As a participation prerequisite
Things like flow breath control intellect and wit
Self evident for any mc worth his sodium
Til you get it, stay off the microphone you crumb

It's just a par par par par

We stick to a basic approach, raps over loops
But some people try to get cute and say that's been done before
It's not innovative, well then riddle me this
To be considered creative, by that logic i'm forced to invent
A new form of music which i must present
But i already gotta a type of music that i like
It's called rockin mics
And before i leave in pursuit of alternate career paths
I'd like to master this craft
I bring innovation through my level of skill
Still sceptical, well i expect that you'll
Redirect your perspective and chill
Why don't you chew on this, cuz it's been done i shouldn't be doin this
That's like sayin coltrane was at fault bro
Cuz charlie parker already played the alto
And since shakespeare wrote plays
I guess beckett shouldn't of had his say
And cuz gandhi took a non violent approach
Luther king junior should be reproached
For adopting the same ideology, obviously no
And the fact my philosophy is ...?
To direct your progression, and that's a statement, not a question

Now i'm not tryna come across as cynical and jaded
But one thing unique about hip hop that sometimes i hate
Is the fact that sixty per cent of the cats that come to shows be like
Bro, we make rap tracks
And dig into their knapsacks and pull out a fat stack of raps
That they proceed to spit
Not spit meaning rhyme, but spit meaning spit
Literally all over my face
It's cool that your eager but dude give me some space
I'm just off the stage ...? from rocking the place
I'm tired i'm sweaty, please give me some space
Not to mention that i'm havin trouble hearin what you're sayin
Right behind you yeah, that's a dj playin
And there's already raps on those beats see
Which means makin out yours is not easy
Better to give me a cd with your tightest three tracks
I'll listen, and write you with my feedback
Not to say that i'm against a friendly post show hello
Put it this way, say you played the cello
I'd assume it's safe to say you wouldn't bring that thing to a show in it's case
And as soon as the symphony finished
Track down yo yo ma and play a little ...?
Or suppose you took your girl to the ballet
Afterwards you slip on tights and bust a jete
Not to say that i'm a snob is not curious about new mcs
Just i take this shit seriously
Build some skills and approach with some etiquette
In other words follow those participation prerequisites

It's just a par par par par
