Tekst piosenki
[Verse 1: Abstrakt Mind]
Take a picture of the game and frame a thousand pictures
Of a new generation penetrated by the system
My wisdom was never clouded by the meek, the mills you seek
When your budget declines and billboard stock loses its peak
I stand on my own two, run through all the mumble
Fall down, stand tall, but seems, I steady stumble
But we could twerk it out I know it
And we could get whipped into shape just ask Porsche
I admit I was a slave to designer names and fabrics
Hazardous, it was magic, they pulled the wool over my Google glasses
Wonder if we searching for something bigger
Than boogie women broken down offering placenta
Would you be in her? I prolly exit stage left and center
Was a born sinner, opposite of a winner
Shoutout to Biggie, J. Cole, now in the rap game I enter
Oh no, my mind, third eye
Shine bright and I
[Hook: Abstrakt Mind]
See the noose, when they shoot
My lord, my lord (4x)
[Skit: Immortal Technique]
I think more than the message of materialism
What you’re speaking about is the braggadocio attitude of Hip-Hop
I think the message of materialism is one aspect of that
To say that I’m better than you, I can say it in many ways
I can beat you in a fight, I’m stronger than you
I’m bigger, I have more people on the street
I have more guns, I have prettier women
This has always been kind of a back and forth kind of teasing
Almost a vaudeville, but also taken very seriously in the streets when people put their reputation up on the line
But I think having more money was something that came to the forefront as apart of corporate involvement in Hip-Hop
And therefore them wanting to use that to be the ultimate Trump card
To say okay „who’s got more skills?”
That’s great, I’m glad that you can rap better than me, but I’ve got more money than you
So I’m better than you
You know?
Or you know, technically you can freestyle better than me, but my video’s on MTV and yours isn’t
So I must be better than you
You know what I mean?
Doesn’t matter how dope people are
Doesn’t matter if they’re incredibly skilled
I’ve got more money than you
So I win
If that’s not a corporate „I said so, I told you so”
I don’t know what is
