My body doused in ash with two empty cans of gas The only evidence they have is a police sketch of my mask And it's hard at times to ask if you can save my heart for last And it's hard to face the facts when the darkness fades to black
It's not just make believe when they make me take a seat And they put ephenamines in the air and make me breathe So come on and grab your children look out for burning buildings And villains who pillage, they're killing by the millions And billions of people die for a lost cause So now I pray to my nation destroyed under god

I'd post some Body Count lyrics, but I think I'd get a big old warning bar.

Almost anything by Biggie. "I got a shottie by the shower if you wanna shoot my while I'm Chocolate Sharktin'". That line is phenomenal to me for some reason.

Anything from Biggie is immense, it just sounds good. One I've always liked is "Second Round K.O." by Canibus, his diss against LL Cool J. Just full of anger, agression and pretty good lyrics. A little sample... But you ain't got the skills to eat a *****'s ass like me And if you really want to show off, we can get it on Live in front of the cameras on your own sitcom I'll let you kick a verse, it, I'll let you kick em all I'd even wait for the studio audience to applaud Now watch me rip the tat from your arm Kick you in the groin, stick you for your Vanguard award In front of your mom your 1st, 2nd and 3rd born Make your wife get on the horn call Minister Farrakhan Just the way they're delivered are brilliant, I'm not even huge on Canibus as a rapper but that song just gets you pumped.

Im pretty sure the line is "twice as arrogant as KRS is". That is a great verse though. But as far as non punchline stuff: "I need a new ***** for this black cloud to follow,cos while its over me its too dark to see tomorrow"-Nas "I never sleep,cos sleep is the cousin of death"-Nas "I switch my motto instead of sayin tomorrow,that buck that bought a bottle coulda struck the lotto"-Nas "I took a dip last week through the liquid that gathered Near the tip of the peak that exists in my matter, I thought myself to survive without my feet on the ground, I never felt so alive as when I drowned"-Slug "If the revolution aint gonna be televised,then it I'll probly miss it"-Aesop Rock and the whole second verse of this is amazing:

Speaking of Nas, "I Gave You Power" has to be one of the deepest songs. Who would ever write a song from a standpoint of being a gun. The way it lyrically flows and all is brilliant.

Fabolous has some great punchlines. His verse from Deauces was incredibly good imo. He has really stepped his game up

You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay 'em But you won't take this thing out these words before I say 'em 'Cuz there ain't no way I'mma let you stop me from causin' mayhem When I say I'm gonna do something, I do it I don't give a damn what you think I'm doin this for me, so the world Feed it beans, it's gassed up if it thinks its stoppin' me I'mma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly And all those who look down on me, I'm tearin' down your balcony. Not Afraid. In fact, all of Recovery. That is probably my favorite rap album of all time.
