    "Rappers stepping to me they want to get some
    But I'm the Kane, so yo, you know the outcome
    Another victory
    They can't get with me
    So pick a BC date cause you're history
    I'm the authentic poet to get lyrical
    For you to beat me, it's gonna take a miracle
    And, stepping to me, yo that's the wrong move
    So what you on, Homes, dope or dog food?
    Competition I just devour
    Like a pitbull against a Chihuahua
    Cause when it comes to being dope, hot damn
    I got it good, now let me tell you who I am
    The B-I-G D-A-double D-Y K-A-N-E
    Dramatic, Asiatic, not like many."
