Torn |
We’re torn between the new ways of the present |
Between the old ways of the past |
What will be the ways of the future? |
How long will the new world last? |
The masses are innocent to the magnificent |
Atmos? |
and shit my raps are significant |
So I have to benefit wouldn’t you? |
If you had skill that other people couldn’t do? |
I’m putting new thought inside your mind |
Fat Jacks makes the music I write the rhymes |
Tribe Unique combines to put the vision in the rhythm |
It is written certain things are forbidden |
I remember when a simple rhyme was a jewel |
Now you gotta freestyle and act a fool |
The blacker you are the better for being cool |
And gettin' screwed |
And plus somebody takin' food out your baby’s mouth |
You make me doubt the system |
When you make a world issue out of O.J. |
Simpson? |
But things are better than they were right? |
They industry is flooded with rappers that were tight |
But what they are now is something new |
And everybody race around for what they gonna do |
This year a new sound in the atmosphere to pick and choose |
But which is whose and whose is which? |
Half the people liked ya better way before ya switched |
At last the task becomes a masquerade |
Cause when you pay you don’t bother |
It becomes harder to stay hungary |
Because you eatin', ain’t keepin' the same company |
You don’t want any static you think it’s copastetic |
But that’s not livin' better |
If you ain’t all together (homie) |
Don’t let your urge go on to live right |
Or get your creativity while rippin' on the mic |
Survin' in the land of juveniles |
I’m strivin' while I’m risin' with the brand newest style |
Uh my eyes and ears are open |
I’m peepin' what they actin' like |
The public eats it up, they got big appetite |
First page for the rage of a nation |
Second page for that nation to awaken |
Third page for the old ways |
Computers takin' over man but they man made |
Fourth page hooray |
As told by the God Soundwave |
We shall prevail again (prevail again) |
Fifth page for the alien (the aliens) |
Five years till when… |
