Every day I hold the rap
The rapper only raps this way
I've seen a lot of different places
I've seen a lot of different places
A lot of politics
From the ghetto, they're rockin' stages
With artistical flair
Many rappers spit on the scene and live their dreams
Biggest artists getting treated like kings and the queens
But if you wanna make it to me
It seems like you have to fake it
Turn your soul into cash
I'm not a hater
I speak sensibly
This is not the way the game was supposed to be
Cause the labels wanna control you
They don't want to set you free
That was supposed to be my home
But I'm a refugee
Livin' that underground life
Tryin' to propel the music
Got prepared to sell my soul
Music ain't just about being passionate
It's about being artistic
What they trying to do to this hip-hop?
They think they real
But they ain't true with this hip-hop
What they tryin't to do to this hip-hop?
Breakin' the laws and the rules for this hip-hop
What they tryin' to do to this hip-hop
We don't need black and blue for this hip-hop
Wht they tryin' to do to this hip-hop
Life is the real school for this hip-hop
I've seen this situation
Cause these evil people are lackin' innovation
This don't give me inspiration
And those who relate to my brain
Say I'm greater than Cassius
Tryin' to keep this hip-hop alive
Always talkin' about murder
That's why they are killers
Killin' the industry, killin' the vibe
But they ain't committed no crimes
These niggaz are blind
That's why there is a hip-hop to climb
Violent gangsta music is now
How hip-hop is defined
Let me remind, niggaz have a hip-hop beat
I even find hard to understand when hip-hop speaks
What they trying to do to this hip-hop?
They think they real
But they ain't true with this hip-hop
What they tryin't to do to this hip-hop?
Breakin' the laws and the rules for this hip-hop
What they tryin' to do to this hip-hop
We don't need black and blue for this hip-hop
Wht they tryin' to do to this hip-hop
Life is the real school for this hip-hop
