Poem excerpt from Saul Williams' "Coded Language" on Def Jam Poetry.

Lyrics:
I ain't never said I'm the greatest, 
Shit maybe in a free
I wanted the greatest to wanna be like me
Never wanted to be king, never wanted a crown
Cuz If I get that throne i'mma sit my ass down
And fool myself thinkin' i'm at the top of of the top
When In reality the fight for the greatest ain't gonna stop

On the real tho, the road to success
Is FUCKED, too much jest is trusted, but less
corrupted rough texts are loved with much stress
on fucked up death threats and custom gun wrecks
Bustas come next and talk about dumb checks
How they tuck their gun best and rough up dumb sets

Nigga .....mo'Fuck yo' content
I gotta gun to bust, but I also gotta conscience
On this hip hop shit, ever since my onset
Haunted by visions to make it my conquest

.......and MY road to success,
Much less corrupted, bestowed and unstressed
Love recollected, big boats and sunsets
Drug-like injectin' big hopes cuz son blessed

...just let me live up in the moment,
Capture it cuz its golden and after look for atonement
Rapture in its devotion we're bastards of its glory
Shackled in matrimony with passion for our stories
The magic is in the essence, the rhythm is so sublime
Crafting of my own presence ripplin' in the rhyme
I'm drafting with the medics its Ritalin for the mind
When matched with the awakening lyrics of the divine

I'm, just a tool or a mean
But my words are the engine of this foolish machine
Blind passion and love are the glue for its dream
Perseverance and commitment are the crew and the team
So never put my name in the formula, in fact
I'm just a dissident from the magic that comes with rap
So when you're listenin', envision a different path
where the wind is whisperin' the images I enact

Gather the world in my ink, let the masses have a say
With every passage that I crafted from the ashes of the day
I stay emphatic 'bout the clashes and the tragedy portrayed
But know that happiness is practiced in the beauty of decay
....nay, there's no direction in the script
Cuz I'm spitting what comes equipped with the mind of hypocrites
Inside me the lyrics dip in the finest of images
unaltered to mirror this through the liveliness of my lips
....and I guess its safe to say,
The dynamics of the rhyming keep my heartbeat, no declinin'
The stars are in alignment and they're shinin' thru the day
The sun in the night sky, written down in my page.

We are stars in the eyes of God, and the rest.
