  2. condensing hip-hop wisdom in fiv e lines is hard,but let's see...
    1)a line I tend to revisit every day is nas's opening line in life's a bitch:"I woke up early on my born day,twenty years of blessings/the essence of adolescence leaves my body now I'm fresh and/"
    that hit me hard when I first heard it,and lingers to this day.
    2)"this is what you waited all year for:The hardcore,that's what krs is here for!"just pure fun,I guess.
    3)"I start to think,and then I sink into the paper,like I was ink,when I'm writing I'm trapped in between the lines,I escape,when I finish the rhyme."
    4)"todo el mundo tiene algo siempre que aprender/hasta aquel que lo sabe todo tiene que aprender a no saber"from "consejos ofrecidos a todos vosotros por frank t"by spanish rapper Frank-t,from this second lp,1998's"Los pajaros no pueden vivir en el agua por que no son peces",in a cinch it says that everybody has something new to learn,even the most wise has to learn how to be unaware.
    5)krs's second verse from "ah,yeah"incredible.it starts like this:'this is not the first time I came to this planet,but everytime I came only a few could understand it/I came as solomon for the people that were lost,I came as jesus,but they nailed me to the cross,I came as harriet tubman,I put the truth to sojourner...dman,krs is on some other...

  3. 5) "Come closer, while I lock it down like I'm supposed ta/You battle me, you won? You might of, but then you woke up"
    Redman - It's Like That (My Big Brother)

    4) "I won't dumb it down, I'm dumbing now for these rounds/I'm a live mothefucker plus I'm gunning for clowns/You're mine motherfucker, don't be coming for pounds/So you can break out of that invisible box, you're not down"
    El-P - We're Famous

    3) "I hop into the backseat of a cab and rhyme/
    til the meter says 9, 9, 9, 9/Line for line I battle any kind of MC at any time/whether they signed or unsigned"
    CanIBus - How we roll

    2) "And do you have any clue what I had to do to get here I don't/think you do so stay tuned and keep your ears glued to the stereo"
    Eminem - Renagade

    and the winner...
    1) "You're just a rent-a-rapper, your rhymes are minute-maid/I'll be here when it fade to watch you flip like a renegade"
    Rakim - Follow the leader
