Lyrics
Flip:
I’m the adopted son of urban but I’m learning that suburban kids
lives fall under knives like the listener’s a surgeon,
cutting deep with criticisms that don’t fit your common cast,
casude you never heard a head claiming truth to middle class but us,
Point 5 Covenant, we come real with no gimmicks,
no fake tales to sell like you money hungry mimics
you’ll never get rid of it,
while the masters benefit,
you’ve come to the end of it,
so get rid of all your sentiments,
you’re like the Judas of the industry,
taking an art and mutating it to a mystery,
but cant you see? the positivity is not existing g,
committing blasphemy, your skipping through pages of history,
oh your winning offending women defending sinning souls
my minds spinning your grinning beginning in my pigeon hole
so it doesn’t really matter what I say or what I wrote,
cause to you I’m not quote- hip hop- unquote
Merlin:
What you think is Hip Hop is just some empty thoughts dropped
uttered by endless pawns caught in the game they sought the fame
but in the end their souls were bought with compliance and submission
defiance and division deceivin demoralized decisions
needing a revision imprisoned by all these cons
idolized by little children listening to all their songs
this art that I love has been buried and pounded down
set apart from up above but carried on underground
found in tape decks or an original flow
heard by the ten cats noddin their heads at the show so
No I don’t speak of cash or twenty inch rims and
YEAH I went to private school with a bunch of rich kids
but I was just middle class I never had the bling bling well
I had some braces at the age of fourteen
but according to the world I am not hip hop
but the world can think whatever I don’t want what it’s got
SeanP:
i wear some Clark Wallabees
but so does Keven Arnold
day dream about
Wenie, carve our name in oak trees
my lawn stays green 52 weeks of the
year/ mom beat aunt Bee in a baking contest
I'm a little different/ ride
around in my '83 singing "can't touch this”
spray graffitti, with my neighbor Opie
breakdance in Hammer pants with Richie Cunningham
those were the happiest days
scratching Billy Gram phrases, over Elvis loop tapes,
before Puff Daddy was famous
I owe all I know to that movie Beat Street
Ramo's legacy will live on thanks to me...
