Genabis Lyrics

[Verse 3: Canibus]
First rapper to speak over beats dogmatically
Mixed with Elizabethan drama and tragedy
My motto is to dress casually and live lavishly
Look at the Victorian tapestry in back of me
Notice the post renaissance pictures I drew
Hand sketched drawings of the deserts in Nazca Peru
The followable audio propagates the possible truth
For proof I'm the illest so the choice is not unto you
See the standard ideological definition of a rap model
Puts Canibus in scholarly periodicals
The article is substantially impressive, more than a message
A working thesis from several different perspectives
The Rosetta stone of sentences for rap music's tentative
Entered apprentices, this is Genabis
The Rosetta stone of sentences for rap music's tentative
Entered apprentices, this is Genabis


[Chorus: Canibus]
Yo, Genabis, Exobus, Levitibus
There ain't a mic on this planet I'm restricted to touch
I read the cosmos, what God wrote predicted as much
The inhabitants lack faith but resistance is tough

Genabis, Exobus, Levitibus
There ain't a mic on this planet I'm restricted to touch
I read the cosmos, what God wrote predicted as much
The inhabitants lack faith but resistance is tough

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

The song title is a reference to the first chapter of the Old Testament, Genesis. This is where the religious references (7 days of creation, hell) and references to being first come from.

The song is kind of a little history of how Canibus got into rap. ‘Genabis’ is a portmanteau of Genesis and Bis. Sort of like the history of Canibus.
