Best Kept Secret

You see, I skip to my lou like Napoleon at Waterloo

My name is Diamond D, tell you what I'm gonna do

I dip and I dab like a Mike Tyson jab

Even though there's flab, I possess the gift of gab

I shoot it like a jammy and girls give the panties and

Even with a fanny and I might win a Grammy and

Maybe I won't, so I'll chill like the Pope

See, I'll never mope 'cause I know my **** is ****

Like Columbian fish scale, ask my man Ishmael

(Diamond D got props like a cop)

Or better yet DT 'cause brothers can't see me

Even your girl says you got a small wee wee

Now you wanna go upside her head

Do you feel intimidated by the things she said?

Don't be mad 'cause I paid her back

(You know I) took her to the rest and I laid her back

(I go) on and on like popcorn with the butter

A-a-a-a-yo! I used to stutter

But I fall on track and some may say I'm wack and

Fat, but in fact, I'm not any of that, black

See, I'm the best kept secret (Yeah)

So shut the **** up and peep it

"Diamond D"... "Raised in Forest"

"Rapper tries to diss, I crush the ************"(x4)

See, I write my own rhymes, produce my own shit

Yeah boy, I ain't the one to **** with (Nope)

I'll take a beat and I'll flip it

With so much flavor, niggas wanna sip it

But that's cool 'cause they know I got skills

Let me demonstrate if you will, ahem

Rock is my man and so is Dapper Dan and

I'll shake your hand and don't try to flam

Or front like a stunt who lost her cunt

I only hit grand slams, never will I bunt

Bases are loaded, bottom of the ninth

I step to the plate 'cause I know my shit is great

I can't walk down the street

(A-yo Diamond, can you make me a beat?)

You gotta have cheese, about a couple of G's

But if I know ya, I might just throw ya

A little somethin' on the side, troop

A funky bassline and a hype loop

I got a thousand old records in my crib

I used to hustle but I never did a bid

Some people call me Jo Jo, I keep a low pro

Non-stop props, so act like you know, bro

Pass me a mic and I'mma keep it

Yeah boy, I'm the best kept secret

"Diamond D"... "Raised in Forest"

"Rapper tries to diss, I crush the ************"(x4)

Yo, I'm deadlier than Michael Myers

My style will embrace you like a pair of pliers

But don't sweat it, G, why don't you let it be?

'Cause Diamond D is a pedigree

In other words, I'm official

I'll never go out like a wet piece of tissue

Ruff and rugged, stronger than Bounty

New York is the city, Bronx is the county

Learned from the best so the rest just fess

Now I'm gettin' booked at the Fillmore West

Located in the Village, so kill it, 'skillet

You ask yourself, will it ever cease?

'Cause Diamond's sharp as a crease

I only use bees wax, I'll never use grease on my dreads

But instead, if you want some kicks

Step to the mic, I'm an 8 to 1 pick

You reap what you sow and I can reap it

Yo, I'm the best kept secret

"Diamond D"... "Raised in Forest"

"Rapper tries to diss, I crush the ************"(x4)
