mfuqua23 Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 I wrote this in the course of yesterday and today. It's a take from Dr. Dre's "The Watcher" and turned into what seems to be today's defining view of 'rappers'. I also throw in I myself. Peep it... © 2005 Verse 1 Thangs just ain't the same for rappers Signin' contracts to be scripted actors in their videos wit b****es and platniums Flows as tight as their faction, don't want nothin to happen But if it's gotta go down like that They'll rep dey hood and bust dey gat The biggest in their spot; listeners addicted to em like crack rocks They'll murder U lyrically, leave ya ass in a ziplock Rap has been corporate since '79 Everybody's cookie cut to tell the same grime I guess it ain't hard to believe that if it gets money, then U be just like me Sit, speak, roll over, and make some hits What's the mutha****in' thanks U get? A couple cents for every unit U move Yeah, your really gettin paid for what U love to do CHORUS Everywhere that I go, I hear the same old flow bout what they have and they know, but they just after the dough When I turn on the TV, I see the same old wack MCs We need diverser things, I'm sick of one-sided themes Verse 2 Ain't nothin' wrong wit tryna earn dead presidents so U can pay bills and rent, afford ya residence Just try to understand, we can't all be doin' the same How else do U expect us to 'Change The Game' I been rappin since late August 2001 Ever since that time, I just been havin' fun Keep writin til my bones get brittle and freestyle whenever, until my brain functions little Misconceptions, thinkin I'm gettin weeded but I don't need it, to write these rhymes, they can't believe it I do for flow and show of it Not the 20+ inch rims that's rollin da whip I ain't tryna live a lifestyle where I gotta be hard Everybody's got a choice, that shouldn't be your job U better recognize and define right when U feel that rap is ya life CHORUS Verse 3 Thangs just ain't the same for rappers Against one another, they all wanna act up Get cash stacked up, get b****es f***ed up Knockin somebody off, they ready to buck buck! I think it's time for the dice to roll different Hip hop's gone global, we should get plenty specifics Like me, I struggle findin' who I am and all things in the world I try to understand I observe and give words to my visions There like motion pictures, but there's no need for admissions I'll admit, I ain't perfect but I worked hard, and I ain't worthless If ya feelin' it cool, if not, that's on U Just know for a fact, I love what I do Who took the time to explain the cut? Signing off, FuQ - The Rapper CHORUS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
