uncertainty and it hurts for me
Even though third doesn't rhyme with hurt, it keeps the flow going.
He uses advanced rhyme schemes.
1234, try to make things less complicated on him

Notice he doesn't rhyme the middle syllables and you still get a really good flow.
That's a method of rhyming used by rappers with good schemes.
When you start trying to rhyme every syllable, it will make the flow sound a little better to the ear
but you will start not making sense. Hence the reason you say unconventional things when you rhyme.
If you don't rhyme the beginning and ending syllables its not the same.
For example.
"It hurts for me
to give you the [s]third[/s] degree
of words and what needs to be learned in order to [s]deserve[/s] to be
a [s]third[/s] of me...
The uncertainty
of insurgency
on Illest Lyrics instills in spirits a firm be
in my versed decree..."
It takes away the entire point of using rhyme schemes.

The manner in which I deployed those multi-syllabic rhymes bears a success that lies in the accents on different syllables, displaying that it's not always necessary to have every syllable rhyme, and have the accent on the same syllable in every rhyming word. The only other word in that whole thing that rhymes with "degree" is "decree". But it is how I know everyone will read it that makes it flow so smoothly. When you're writing your pieces, you need to read them aloud - and not just the rhyming words or syllables - every word in every line.
