No doubt about it. Honestly, I have no idea what song those lyrics he posted came from, but him talking about the Big Tymers gave me the vibe that they're REALLY old. When he was with the Big Tymers he was, like, 16 years old..
Not that Lil Wayne's ever really been a poet, per se. He tends to jump around in his songs. One line he's talking about how much money he has, then he's talking about ****ing bitches, then he's relating macaroni to quantum physics. He's is extremely clever, though, and probably uses some of the best metaphors in the rap game.
As far as poets go, I was talking about certain others. True lyricists. You can't listen to an Eminem, Jay Z, Nas, Notorious BIG and not deny the fact that those dudes have ways with words. If you do, you likely just have an issue with their offensive language or ebonics.
