Back in my younger days, I used to think that I could rap. I lived in Kent, Ohio -- that's what stalled my rapper aspirations. But I just heard this ill verse from Andre 3000 off of this track called, "Art of Storytellin' Pt. 4". Anyone who knows its predecessors, knows how ill both Dre and Big Boi came on this track. I'm not a rapper, but it did get me inspired. So, laugh, comment, whatever... Just let me celebrate!
A 24-year youngin',
Loungin' in the borough of Biggie and Jay,
I'm dreaming of owning the keys to my own castle,
But in the meanwhile, my friends keep callin' me an asshole,
Ladies do too...
Does that mean that I am or is that I'm just being too truthful.
I'm doing things that other think about while in class,
While I make sure that the things that I thought about come to pass.
It's like being an author of your life story before you die,
I'm a man, in command of my position to remain fly,
To be a legend while haters stay staring at my throne,
There's a legit reason why you'll never see me back at my old home,
I'm on the grind, Shirley,
So, surely, you can understand why I don't have time for a girly,
Well, maybe one, fuck it let's make it twice,
But if one beats the other, then I'll make her wife,
Just let me celebrate...
[Chorus]
Just let me celebrate,
A good time, right mind - don't playa-hate,
The local asshole, with international dreams,
Shining like a star, let me expand my schemes,
As make-believe become fact,
And fiction makes others react,
Let me be king amongst paupers and remain fit,
While I lax and just talk my shit...
The boss, a commander in chief,
A realistic one, not the one known as thief,
It's imperative to understand that I'm oh-so-grand,
As I get my Dick Clark on,
The American Bandstand, band-wa-gons on my bozack,
The kid's gettin' fresher, shakin' gals get prozack,
Cause when he gets bizack,
It's time to act like a young Shiz-aq,
K-Star The Great, others think I'm atrocious,
But the freaky dopest, Scorpiolocious,
Is still on a quest,
To be best,
Better than a nerd passing a calculus test,
BK veteran, but only here two months,
Birthday here soon, I'm on the hunt,
For George and Weezy,
I talk shit, y'all jigs is cliché,
So, I stay grounded, let my mind elevate,
Y'all just make believe, let me celebrate...
[Chorus]
That's it...

Celebrate? Definitely can not sleep on it so you miswell! Although I have never heard this song, I do recall Part.1. I am an OutKast fan. With lyrics that take us back to their roots and cover real life situations, they relentlessly prove that you don't have to sell out to sell records!
