Point Blank
-Set-


I'm comfortably numb, oblivious to pain
For the rest of my life, in this position i'll remain
I'll never reconsider other lyricists again
Whether dudes are dope or ridiculously lame
Bein vicious an insane, thats how i got where i reside
Ignorin all my brothers as they're droppin at my side
Copin with the problems that my honesty abides
Arguments are startin in my conscious an my mind
The nonsense is whats dominant, no knowledge is inside
My souls hollow when it comes to talk of confidence and pride
But when it comes to rappin, the God's are pushed aside
Thats why my occupation an my faith constantly collide
I'm obnoxious as a prodigy, but i'm benevolent too
Cos if dudes are struggling to die, i'm helpin 'em through
My power's causin more shake's than an elephants hooves
So you can go to hell if you don't think i'm an elegant dude!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's night time : I'm sittin by myself in a room
Everthing above is simply telling the truth
Tryna teach myself that there aint a thing that jealousy soothes
In a world where hatred and intelligance booms
Focus on what I desire, swirve the irrelevant news
Raised like hilter in a room that's infested with jews
I smoke the best from the crews, like im puffin a blunt
Witnesses who claim their hard struggle to front

Truth is im comfortably numb, mankind is ignored
I don't listen to anything except my mind anymore
Writin all the time, day or night when I'm bored
As long as I go down in history as that guy who was raw

Inject the words spoke like the verse is a herb smoked
eject the worst toke an hop in a hearse curbed, cloaked
soaked by a flow joked that only knows one hits n hoes
choked on the fumes that loom -now i speak wit tricks n codes
im sick wit notes, so to compete wit kids is a fuckin mockery
im prevalent to victories wit written hypothesis of hypocrises
call me the rhymin socrates wen truth hits the proof is my mind lucid
so finding a way to get to me is easy but before defeat i'll leave ya flesh putrid
im the coolest, not lupe but this fiasco must come to an end
how can you dudes crank dat an not think its the dumbest trend
with the time i spend how can you not kick the rhymes i blend
im one of the finest men to eva lay a track an break minds to bend
i subtract the whack so minus them is a plus while i add da hits
im 100 % geniune, pure and raw like uncut coke and no additives
yet still im mad at this--tha fact is that i still see none of tha same
My conscience and I are the only ones still in love wit tha game..........

im comfortably numb, deaf but not dumb
blind to the fact that 99% of you succumb
the other..1..sees the light at the tunnel
not drained by the same fluid flown in a funnel
my rebutle...is none, nada, theres nothin to say
ive stopped all and left those chosen fucked to stay
enough of yay, enough of hoes, its all misery
what happend to storytellin and verses of wizardary
want that real, then to the store purchase ur history
my chemistry made me comfortably numb, it aint a mystery

I walk the path to my own flow n own beat
Its just a lil better to enjoy when noone knows me

OK.. Point i liked your verse seemed to capture the state that Hip hop is in at the moment.You also laid down the aims that every Emcee should aim for and that is to aim to make their bark on history. Set at first i thought this was going to be a boring multi rhyme driven verse, yet my opinion of you changed by the end of your verse, the last section was just dope and it summed up the situation that mainstreem rap is in at the moment. Nice boys something a bit different which is always good.

Point - you switched ya flow up from ya normal rhymescheme which was refreshin to me, it worked really well aswel, felt both verses, doesnt really matter who's verse was better because its all about gettin ya message across as you want it in this type of piece, aint seen much if anythin from Set but was cool, as frank said it picked up as the verse progressed ........Keep this sorta thing up boyz.......(take this as my monthly comment or sumin lol)

Hmm ok point your rhyming and flow was fine throughout the verse.. Imo, starting was kinda week in first verse, when u reach these line:

"The nonsense is whats dominant, no knowledge is inside
My souls hollow when it comes to talk of confidence and pride
But when it comes to rappin, the God's are pushed aside
Thats why my occupation an my faith constantly collide
I'm obnoxious as a prodigy, but i'm benevolent too
Cos if dudes are struggling to die, i'm helpin 'em through"

good concepts.. really nice lines....

2nd part of the verse was also good loved reading it and in this story u had different story about history.. cool stuff

Set... starting of good, like the eminem song the one he's falling from building that fucking song can't remember..  anyhow like yo rhyme scheme, smooth flow starting and ending was good Imo..

keep it up....

Its The Way I Am...Anyways..Point I was feeling your lines, the multies were dope..This also aided your flow I didnt expect the style change really..this is a little out of your norm of writing..
 
Set - at first I was the same as franky I predicted that this was gonna be a useless multie peice..Which IMO at the start it was..useless words being thrown together to make shit rhyme..but then you switched it around and actually started to make it nice so the ending was dope..nice on that..if you would of started the same way you finished it would of been really nice..keep at it though

The original comeback kid
