Hard To Be Hip-Hop |
Yo class how u doing? |
dude, I’m back in the fax |
I’m taking time off acting I gotta relax |
I need a new beat |
Yo freshtro I got a few treats |
U been up in the city long? |
Nah only two weeks |
Cool well, sorry 'bout the weather |
It’s been raining all week I hope it gets a little better |
Either way class listen, I got a I’ll vision |
Bout a song I’m working on you think you got the right rythm? |
Man c’mon, you know I got some shit that’ll break your neck |
I used up what I want but you can take what’s left |
Don’t give me bullshit dog, you know (I blazed a set?) |
You know you got something saved for west |
I got a I’ll concept hip hop |
How to pay a real line? |
1987 I be reppin all this hype? |
session |
And I still be gettin stressin |
You know it’s hard to be hip hop |
And ain’t nobody stayin real |
Don’t pay bills when you showcase skill |
Ain’t nobody living off of doing windmills, |
I’m painting train rails, that’s real |
It’s hard to be hip hop |
You know it’s hard to be hip hop |
I got no glassy? |
grills, so my raps ain’t real |
Cause I don’t pack steal then my tracks appeal |
And to the mass appeal watch how fast they fail |
Yeah I’m hip hop son until my cats get sealed |
It’s hard in a culture when the fans are fickled |
Understand my issue, your old man will diss you |
One minute your whack and then your jams official |
And then they switch again, |
Two bottles of cancer hit you |
First they loved L L, |
Then they hated him |
And then they loved him again, |
Then they degraded him |
So lately, basically, I don’t know if I can play though |
When survival of the fittest, let me see what kind of shape I’m in |
Yo stro when I was younger like 19 |
I could spend all day writing rhyme schemes |
Spittin, freestylin, cypherin the streets |
But now I got responsibilities |
Yo it’s hard to be hip hop |
No this is not an illusion |
Cats are killing me luke |
Thinking lifes like a video shoot |
They ain’t spittin the truth |
Tru, I got a similar view |
But I guess that’s the damage the industry do |
I’m 28 unemployed, a grown ass man |
Still trying to rap with no fall back plan |
Go all out fan you got nothing to lose |
Cause only to yourself you got something to prove |
Yeah we gotta be hip hop it’s all that we know |
Blaze up the shelto stro |
Yo on with the show |
Get the drum track going |
Ok enough small talk |
But whatever you drop, keep it hard |
It’s gotta be hip hop |
You know it’s hard to be hip hop |
Gotta be hip hop |
