Old niggas |
| Damn, Mizzy Mauri got beats |
| Uh, old niggas and new niggas, now what’s the difference? |
| All in the same boat in a stuck position |
| So when an old nigga talkin' I don’t fuckin' listen |
| They don’t know, every day we make tough decisions |
| It seems though we is at a generational gap |
| Which bring conversation and a statement in fact |
| We can agree, none of us is 'posed to make it in rap |
| I understand both sides, let me break it in half |
| Let’s take it back: when hip hop originated |
| And old niggas said it was wack, they couldn’t take it |
| And called it a lil' trend, said it wouldn’t last |
| Now, it’s the number one genre as the time passed |
| Young niggas won’t listen and we know it, ha |
| But old niggas always talk and never show it, uh |
| You gotta practice what you preach and the classes that you teach |
| We’ll eventually listen, my mind mentally prison, uh |
| Lately, all my idols, they been failin' me |
| Catchin' sexual assaults and some felonies |
| Then, you want me to listen what you tellin' me |
| And wanna hate when we sing our lil' melodies |
| And other idols, they be broke, get your funds in order |
| And Kanye West is a Trump supporter |
| Then, we got R. Kelly and Bill Cosby |
| Who still probably got lil' girls in the Hills lobby |
| And these supposed to be our heroes? |
| Negro, please |
| Old niggas unreliable like D-Rose knees |
| Only man I can trust is G-O-D |
| Not to mention Mos Def and Talib Kweli |
| Now I get it, y’all think new niggas really suck |
| And white kids fuckin' love it, lil' silly ducks |
| But I know it’s a lot of bullshit goin' on |
| I understand, but please, don’t complain without a plan |
| Ironically I wrote this whole song off a xan, nah I’m playin' |
| I’m just tryna be a fuckin' man |
| We see you old niggas as a lot of clowns |
| Not to mention, our father figures was not around |
| So we all on tours and we hoppin' towns |
| We just need to sit down and find common ground |
| And it’s soon to come, soon to come |
| Hip-hop need balance like the moon and sun |
| It feel good when I wear Christian Louboutins |
| So I gotta drop music to accrue some funds |
| And I get it, that’s the mindset that’s killin' the rhyme-fest |
| But feedin' our families, lowering the crime, yet |
| You want us to be separate and make a contest |
| Rappin' to stay up out the streets, shouldn’t mind that |
| Stayin' out of prison and we sayin' fuck the system, man |
| Rappin' is an outlet to go and get our dividends |
| Rather than out robbin' niggas, sellin' Ritalin |
| Old niggas bitter, y’all should love it when a nigga win |
| 'Cause we came from the same struggle |
| Like Diddy and Dame Russell |
| Was teachin' and gained hustle, got rich, remained subtle |
| See, I listen, see, I listen |
| But Lil Dae-Dae water-whippin' in the kitchen |
| Ready to flip a pack and bring it back, no submission |
| Gotta just go attack Lil Pump when you’re dissin' |
| I understand both sides of the Ziploc |
| Y’all old niggas' time is comin', nigga, tick-tock |
| I’ma still wear all my Gucci flip-flops |
| And the fuckin' diamond chain with the big rocks |
| And I’ll be the greatest ever, nigga, just watch |
| Cardi B got rich from Love & Hip Hop, haha |
