Preachin' To The Quiet |
Celebrity the new drug |
In america |
Gotta have it Gotta be it So the young ones see it Watch out now |
Looka here now |
In these get rich or die tryin times |
Greed that i see |
Got these cats |
Whipped by tv 3 generations of fatherless women |
We drownin instead of swimmin |
This aint what yall asked for |
Thats what they locked ya ass up for |
And closed the door |
Beyond these streets |
These kids is always watchin |
See it aint been the same |
Since teen summitt left the game |
Off the air, who cares? |
Now kids get programmed |
Ask their peoples |
Who buy them almost everything the stars wear |
People see, people do See the new pied pipers |
Got a hold on you |
Back to the boogaloo |
Get a shot |
So you wont catch the flu |
Dont get shot |
And get a hole in you |
Im talkin advanced |
But goin back at the same time |
Rewind |
So what, some of this song dont rhyme |
Like i said |
Most of us get ghetto at the wrong time |
Fear |
So leave a little room for god |
Up in here |
Back in the day |
Even real pimps, hustlers, players |
Told young cats |
Cmon get their lives on track |
These raps you hear today |
Is a bad ass act |
Im here to tell it Like it ought to be It aint no kids fault to me 35 year olds |
Actin 16 |
Know what i mean |
You dont work, mean you dont eat |
You need more than a ball |
And some bomb ass beats |
New kicks on your feet |
Need your mind in these time |
To compete |
Make your world complete |
Sweet not sour |
Thats what they really call fightin the power |
Here it is, no fable |
I put it all on the table |
Spendin my time |
Identifyin whos behind |
Some of these labels |
Who profit off the spit |
Some of the same way same cats |
That owned them ships |
Yes |
Its a business |
Butslavery was too |
Prison industrial complex |
New slavery lookin to own you |
Ownin the labels, stations, jails and cemeteries |
Thug life |
Turnin hip hop into a one stop shop |
Somebody behind |
Makin up your own damn mind |
Signed, sealed delivered |
In a nigger package |
So dumb you cant hear |
The ignorance protected |
By the backpacker |
Who co signed the say so Claimin they dig the flow |
Filled wit jim crow |
Return of the old negro |
How you gonna say no to drugs |
If you dont say no to thugs |
See the government |
Sweep it deep |
Under the rug |
