I assume there is a thread for this somewhere, but if not, here goes.
The title pretty much says it all, but it would be nice to hear you guy's favourite Hip Hop verses. Either post a track, the lyrics or both if possible. Also, if you are posting a track, maybe point out when it starts. Also, it would be great if you explained what you particularly liked about the verse.
Here's mine for the moment.
EL-P starts at around 3:35. I love how he basically spits his 16 bars whilst counting to 16 in some form or another. Just excellent.

Straight shots of the sterno plus, wick stuck in the bottle empty
3 blocks to the target we light it and lob it hard at sentry
4 pigs of the oinking variety guard the market entry
5 minutes of flames and then aim the whistle my father lent me
6 o'clock we meet up and divvy the shells among the youngins
7 continents in the shit and smoke like it's fuckin London
Just before they ate up the funds our harmony love was bumpin
Our goverment issue 9's and point 'em where your blood is pumpin
Ten(d) to mop up these muttering zombies talker pieces
El'll ven(t) on you harder than Fukashima breezes
In the end when a dozen or so ajourn to reason
You'll find the verdict return corrupted in murderous seasons
With inverted 31's and other unlucky omens
Thats why I chug 7 and 7's 'til I'm fuckin homeless
And every time you think my 15 minutes of fame are up
I'll spit another 16 to prove to the world I fuckin own it
