Folk rock? |
Shit, the beats, the rhymes is it
|
Johnny, how we gonna start this topic off?
|
Start it with the hip-hop
|
From the beginning, when it was real
|
When it had substance
|
With your heart you could feel it
|
Be ill with shit
|
Fuck shakin' asses
|
Belts you need to fasten when riding with Everlast
|
Or Eveready
|
From day one, I rock steady like a backspin
|
Pumping tracks for satisfaction
|
Last-gaspin' there
|
Ya’ll done fell asleep
|
I remember people pumpin' up in their Jeeps
|
Headphones on the school bus, every day
|
Screamin', («Fuck the police!»), by N.W.A
|
E.S.T., M.A.T., hold the mic like he
|
Extra B may source bringing atoms indeed
|

Somebody call the paramedics!
|
Cause hip-hop's been shot
|
By an MC spittin' nursery-rhyme alphabetics!
|
Somebody call the 'ambalamps'!
|
They got shot up in the dance
|
Man, I wish I was in France
|
Axiomatic advance (?)
|
Take a glance at the curb
|
The situation at hand
|
The drunk list dominatin'
|
Like a flag in your homeland
|
For man, he givin' you his own nightmare
|
Of gun claps in the air
|
That swear to tell you where
|
Oh, however
|
The point is we deliver
|
We get up in your skin like a sliver
|
And give ya the real shit
|
Doesn’t change
|
Most kids nowadays say the same thing
|
Like I’m hatin', man
|
They look at me strange
|
Like an endangered animal
|
Eatin' emcees like a cannibal
|
They screamin' but I’m not understandin' 'em
|
Demandin' 'em I’m not
|
This is for the rarest here

And you, and you (you) you (you)…

Show it off to your friends from the abstract cats

So where’s your heart at?

We bring a hard hat when I’m constructing all these raw raps
|
They label me 'all that and then some'
|
Spittin' out with my pen from
|
Then rebegin the process when I’m done

H-I, the P, the H, the O-P

The Big O, Wax Tailor, in your memory
