I remember it hit me so hard, I was like...holy shit, this dude is RAPPING. LOL. That whole song was crazy lyrical, but the third verse...he transcended. Lotta songs back then were like that. Dudes would do their thing for 2 verses and then come back after the chorus like...Oh! You thought there was just 2??? Hold this THIRD VERSE!! I've mentioned this in the Lesson way back. My boys and I made up a term for when a rapper does that. We call it the "Attitude Verse"...because of the third verse of Rebel Without a Pause. The song would have been completely fine, but Chuck comes back at you like..."ATTITUDE!! When I'm on fire..." To this day, we still will text each other about a song like, oh shit...he had an attitude verse. It's few and far between, though.
