[ verse 1 ]
After I pose for the photos, address the press
I take a rest to let my rhymes digest
Into my brain to sustain and cultivate it
Take a penny for my thoughts, from copper I gold-plate it
Enrich my mind like wine till I find
What I need to exceed with speed, proceed line
Fold it, I take the mic, I grab it and I hold it
Then I walk to and talk to the crowd, cause yo, I sold it
You bought it, you thought it wasnt worth
But the record went gold, it sold, jerk
Im worldwide, from girls I hide
Not gay, no way, but they all wanna ride
Mine, they bring me roses and wine
But I hate cheap sex, so next time
Come correct like an intellect
Okay, do you hear what I say? check
Yo, on the rhyme Im a lyrical joy
And whoever shall front shall be destroyed
The lyrical composer, I produce all legit
My names special ed and yo, your name aint -
And Im powerful in my stable mentality
Takin mcs, yes, of any nationality
Blitzin em, dissin em, off Im pissin em
Makin em solo, broads wont be kissin em
You got taxed, face the facts
Now wheres the jokes and all the wisecracks?
You made before you got slayed by the slayer
Special ed, dj akshun on the record player
Chillin, still in the back just maxin
Me in the front, to be blunt, Im taxin
Im taxin
[ verse 2 ]
When Im on the mic I make mcs wonder
How I dont make the foul-ups, bleeps or blunders
Im fool-proof, Im too couth, too
I got the uzi for the crew, see, but the hands work for you
I give a fair one, because I never like to scare one
Unless he got a vest and a gun
A like a shoot-out, I like a have a root-and-toot-out
If you like to kick, I got the steel-toe boot out
Cause Im malicious, vicious on the mic is how I am
And I always do as I like, clause I demand
The utmost respect from you
Because you should give respect where respect is due
To special ed, thats my name and thats the title I hold
Youre gonna get burned if you wanna get bold
And Im ready, I let the others call me eddie
But for you its special ed because I said so, spaghetti
And in the meantime break out the sixpacks and
Cool while I rule, cause Im taxin
Taxin
Im taxin
Taxin
[ verse 3 ]
Well, if youre lookin for a brooklyn jam
Heres one you might like about a mic and a man
Well, I be meditatin, then I be waitin for the victim
If they flam then I slam them and kick them
Bite the face, then I taste em and lick them
Like ray I slay, take a brick and
Brick them, yo, Im not the typical, massive and large
Im humongous, but the youngest in charge
In combat I contract with souls like crack
Decompose my foes to the size of toes
Because you get all hype and long-winded
But that aint it, its the rhymes that are commended
By the crowd as they start to cheer
With the cisco, the blunts, and the forties of beer
Cause stimulation is what helps my creations
You know I get mellow before my presentations
Because it helps my rhymes to flow through
Like water, I caught a brew, on second thought a few
To release all the heat that I kept
When I was sober, so now its overstepped
Aside, and by my rules abide
Protest, yes, and I suggest you hide
Cause Im comin hummin the song of redemption
Makin stacks, takin tax exemptions
You start to fiend, scream and then holler
For a cigarette, as I get your last dollar
Im taxin, usin ajax and waxin
Mcs with the fleas in their backs and
Behind their ears and up their butt-cracks and
Keep on till you clean up your act and
Stop hold your nose up like michael jackson
Dressin like a bum, cause you dont wear slacks, and
Im done, thanks, its been fun practisin
Im done taxin
