Wow this sort of thing would take me forever to write...until then heres a rap I wrote years ago back in like 2001 on a whim. I was talking to a friend on AIM and i hadn't written in months and he told me "Write! NOW!" and this is what came out.
It's pretty much #2 of those choices but somewhat affected by the lack of quality hip-hop that was around at that time which pissed me off. It was an homage to some of my heroes, and some of my favorites at the time.
It's called "Inspiration" (And it's difficult to read..sorry)

Probably not what was expected but a good start I think.
