Dead End Hip Hop says this man isn't a lyricist:

I see life through many shades of grays and blacks
I could take that and hit 'em with the blazin' tracks
When I make that you fake cats have violent dreams
It takes another dog to be able to hear my silent screams :wow:
The Devil got a hold on me, and he won't let go
I can feel the Lord pullin', but he movin' dead slow

Let 'em know that amidst all this confusion
Some of us may do the winnin', but we all do the losin'
It's just who does the choosin', is you goin' up or down?
What have you been provin'? Just that you were a fukkin' clown
Been seen the bullshyt but never spoke on it
‘Cause I know that deep down you really don't want it
I was traded the chance of bein' a child with a father
For a talent and bein' able to survive when it's harder

My balance on the high beams of life, keep my dreams in strife
That's why I hit these motherfukkin' streets at night
come on!

its funny cause I saw the GQ interview DMX did that's on Youtube about the Ruff Ryders anthem and he was saying he thought the beat was repetitive and said his lyrics he wrote were real ABC and his style is more intricate with the lyrics when it comes to the other songs on the album.

only a true artist would say something like that

people who say X isnt a lyricist are only listening to the adlibs. X is one of the most poetic Mc's of all time and just because its not traditional run of the mill multi syllable shyt he gets slept on. his old music from the early 90's sounds like Rakim and he got 0 love for it but it was amazing lyrically.

I’m sorry y’all but from everything I’m hearing from people in White Plains, it’s only a matter of time. This man has been fighting some terrible demons for pretty much his whole life and maybe this is actually the peace he needs and we can’t comprehend that on a mortal level.
