1 I'm one of the Boolest
To rep my set

2 I don't do computers
But I sipped Hi-Tech

3 I don't do computers
But my chips like that

4 I don't do computers
But my shooters -

5 Put a bullet wound in your apple
It look bit like Mac


It took me a while to pick this section because the whole verse is full of gems, so maybe I'll come back for more in the future.

The main attraction is Bar 5, and everything that precedes it serves to add extra weight to this final bit of wordplay. The apple, when he first mentions it, could refer to two things - your Adam's apple, or your apple-shaped dome. The following line though is where the magic happens, and he flips real-world imagery on its head. The apple now becomes the Apple company logo that you might see on a Mac computer, and then in turn, that logo should now make you think of a bullet hole in someone's head (or throat).

The one thing I haven't quite figured out here is if there's anything deeper in Bar 3. The chips conflate computer chips with money, but something about the "like that" makes me feel like I'm missing some level of analysis. Or it just is what it is.
