| Yo I thought they gave you fair warning, bitch
|
| You should’ve listened
|
| You know you done fucked up, right
|
| Diabolic, ha ha ha
|
| One, two, three
|
| Rest in peace Talib Kweli
|
| Crying like make it stop
|
| That shit isn’t hiphop, you ho
|
| I did some research read your piece it needs work
|
| Ain’t medium dot com the place you buy your tee shirts
|
| I had a knee jerk reaction while you cry and tremble
|
| Petrified not only do you generalize you lie in general
|
| Doubting my potential cause my skin is white
|
| Shit if writing’s your super power making sense is kryptonite
|
| But don’t doubt the fact I’ll show up at your crib tonight
|
| And hit you with a right for each thing you wrote I didn’t like
|
| Online picking fights 'til Pen and Tech addressed it
|
| Not for me they stepped in so this bitch wouldn’t get his head split
|
| Then you said if I was sorry you’d apologize
|
| Followed by a convo 'bout the boys Bambatta sodomized
|
| Do not deny the truth ho you asked for evidence
|
| And that’s the precedent you set when Tech was at your residence
|
| Now I’m addressing it to fill the part that’s missing
|
| And the parts you skipped in all that Kickstarter shit you started kicking
|
| Disregard the fiction I’m not the only artist living
|
| To fuck a few orders up doesn’t mean they aren’t shipping
|
| I’ve given back to this culture and it’s clear
|
| The only vultures that appeared circle over your career
|
| Yeah you popped off once stock dropped off jump
|
| So severe your whole career’s become a sophomore slump
|
| Chump I walk through crowded sidewalks in Bedstuy
|
| Bump shoulders and knock this punk over just to get by
|
| Then I meet Swave Sevah at the back bar
|
| At a Black Star show wondering where the fuck the blacks are
|
| So how you go on Twitter with the nerve to act hard
|
| Your crowd’s the same as one at Talladega watching NASCAR
|
| You wack par as far as rhyming to beats
|
| You’re too busy finding Kelis to hide behind when there’s beef
|
| You’re too busy with the scene telling lies in your tweets
|
| If you were real Mr Green you’d do it live in the streets
|
| While I’d make sure the prophecy still holds true
|
| Stop fronting ain’t dropped something quality since '02
|
| That’s probably why you feel so obsolete and old school
|
| In boat shoes fresh off your shopping spree at Whole Foods
|
| You’re like so cool in your French heels and neckerchiefs
|
| 'Til I fire cannons out of left field like Cespedes
|
| When your homie Niko’s left feeling pressed a bit
|
| In LA you do nothing protects the kid
|
| That’s my regiment so if I were trying to silence you
|
| I would now shut the fuck up here’s what I would do if were you
|
| I’d find a crew like mine to squeeze a round at tyrants who
|
| Really hold your people down not tweet at clowns to ride for you
|
| But that’s too live for you that’s why my record player’s
|
| Playing Respiration while every breath you’re taking’s through a respirator
|
| Shedding rays of light like neon gas
|
| Don’t need Vinia singing to put Kweli on blast
|
| Just throw a beat on won’t see Sean you’re beyond trash
|
| Dream on I’ll air a smith at your peon ass
|
| Like it’s my theme song Steven’s got them screams on smash
|
| Your CD’s for rolling weed on my Nissan dash
|
| Now be gone fast quick before the topic’s trending
|
| Hashtag the revolution’s not a Twitter war so stop pretending
|
| Admit it you’re just immature and condescending
|
| Cause we’ve seen the shit before throwing fits when your with Donald Lemon
|
| A common ending to any topic of discussion
|
| You’re involved with Obnoxious you gossip it’s disgusting
|
| Everybody’s a nobody 'til proper introductions
|
| Guess what nobody’s bodying your knowledge and instruction
|
| Honestly it’s nothing but hang tough don’t forfeit
|
| Who am I kidding I just wanna bring up some more shit
|
| You say stuff like you should thank us for all this
|
| Fine thank you Kweli for bankrupting Rawkus
|
| Thanks for generalizing when it generally serves you
|
| Exhibit A I didn’t know Remedy Urkel
|
| You nerds will twist words and deflect in these circles
|
| Scared to look in the mirror cause that reflection’s eternal
|
| Step in the lab with that aggression and spaz
|
| I’ll shit on you and wipe with the confederate flag
|
| Go to Twitter for support the only weapon you have
|
| But I don’t care about those kids like Mos Def as a dad
|
| Toe tagged if we battle you’ll be dwelling on race
|
| I’ll smoke a blunt to the head you’ll take an L to your face
|
| Cause to me melanin’s your least relevant trait
|
| Before that there’s petty pussy fragile selfish and fake
|
| But wait you’re revolutionary right those are just rhymes
|
| Cause real revolutionaries fight on the Frontlines
|
| So when it comes time for you to die true indeed
|
| This tune will be played on boomboxes at your eulogy
|
| One, two, three
|
| Rest in peace Talib Kweli
|
| Crying like make it stop
|
| That shit isn’t hiphop, you ho |
