I once saw a rapper that, in the middle of a verse, completely out of context, and I don't think even rhyming with anything, just went "I'm a major crack dealer/your a minor crack dealer!"

And when he arrives.
What will he say? What will he say?
He will call "Butterfly" from the distance.
I, without answering,
will remain hidden.
A little to tease him
and a little so as not to die,
at our first meeting;
and then rather worried
he will call, he will call:
"My little one, my tiny wife,
Perfumed-Verbena"
The names he gave me when he came last.

Christmas Card from a Hooker In Minneapolis."

"In the cold places where Spanish is spoken
most wars end in the fall"

"Adam was not the first man
though the Bible tells us so.
There was one created before him
whose name we do not know.
He also lived in the garden
but he had no mouth or eyes.
One day Adam came to kill him
and he died beneath these skies.
I find it so amazing how
I go where I'm lead
I go where I'm lead
I go where I'm lead
I go where I'm lead."
