Is Shakespeare rapped

Intro

Yeah

Aye

Hark good gentles

Let me parley for a moment

I was but a player on a wooden stage

Spoke the Bard till my throat was sore

Then I heard the bounce from a southern prophet

Traded my quill for a mic and never looked back

Quit the plays

Picked the pen up different

Now I spit iambic in a trap cadence

(Aye)

Chorus

Call her Sophia cause she my first

She my first

Every verse a sonnet that I curse

That I curse

Crown her queen of every single burst

Every burst

Call her Sophia cause she my first

My first

Verse 1

Beshrew the fools who told me hold my tongue

I been stacking couplets since the bell had rung

Dost thou recall the night we fled the feast

Ran through the garden like a hunted beast

Hath not a rapper eyes hath not a rapper hands

If you prick us do we not bleed on the stands

I keep a dagger tucked inside my prose

Macbeth ambition got me stepping on my toes

Thou art the moon that pulls my tidal rage

I wrote your name across a burning page

Verse 2

Swear I seen the future like a fortune teller

Kanye kept it in the vault a hidden treasure

Travis cracked the code and set it free forever

Now the bounce hit different when I ride the fader

Methinks the man who waits is not the man who wins

I been up for seven nights committing sins

Romeo done fell but I ain't falling yet

Juliet on my phone she sending me a threat

Cowards die many times before their death

I only die once so I'm holding my breath

Chorus

Call her Sophia cause she my first

She my first

Every verse a sonnet that I curse

That I curse

Crown her queen of every single burst

Every burst

Call her Sophia cause she my first

My first

Pre-Chorus

I was born with a quill in a modern age

I was forged in a fire on a paper page

If the throne get cold then I'll build my own stage

Build my own stage

Verse 3

Hark I heard a knocking at my chamber door

Ain't no raven just the plug with a couple more

To be or not to be ain't the question no more

The question is who run it when they lock the door

I been scheming like a villain with a twisted plot

Lady Macbeth washing blood she cannot get off

Shylock with the interest I collect a lot

Fool me once then the bond is what you got

All the world a stage and I'm the headliner

Puck been in my corner he a silent liner

Verse 4

Off with his head if he ever cross the line

A Midsummer dream and I'm losing track of time

Ophelia in the water but I threw the vine

Hamlet in my mirror asking who is mine

I don't fold for nobody keep the poker face

Rage in my chest like a tempest in a vase

If they sleep on me they gon wake up out of place

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern I cut em out the frame

I ain't playing games

Chorus

Call her Sophia cause she my first

She my first

Every verse a sonnet that I curse

That I curse

Crown her queen of every single burst

Every burst

Call her Sophia cause she my first

My first

Outro

Yea though I walk

She beside me

Sophia

Sophia

Beshrew em all

The curtain falls

We good

(Aye)
