One of the Top Five dopest verses of all time. Prove me wrong!

Wait, no, I did not really pursue my little princess with persistence
And I was so low-key that she was unaware of my existence
From a distance I desired, secretly admired her
Wired her a letter to get her, and it went
My dear, my dear, my dear, you do not know me but I know you very well
Now let me tell you about the feelings I have for you
When I try, or make some sort of attempt, I symp
Damn I wish I wasn't such a wimp!
Cause then I would let you know that I love you so
And if I was your man then I would be true
The only lying I would do is in the bed with you
Then I signed sincerely the one who loves you dearly, PS love me tender
The letter came back three days later, return to sender
Damn!

Odd song choice for a trio.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go punch out a fat guy in a flowered shirt with health issues...

EDIT: i should probably explain the above statement. Back in the early 90's PM Dawn was a pop-rap group with a very psuedo-hippie image. The singer Prince B was critical of some of the more hardcore aspects of hip-hop and in an interview said in an interview something like "KRS wants to be a teacher but A teacher of what?"

KRS's response was to bum rush Prince B at a PM Dawn set and literally throw him off the stage. Krs got some criticism cuz seriously...Prince was an overweight guy who doesn't physically fight back, how challenging is it to beat him up?
