Now I Aint Tryna Be The Greatest... I Used To Hate HipHop

[seymore cake]

Yup because the women degraded
But Too $hort made me laugh, like a hypocrite I played it
A hypocrite I stated, though I only recited half
Omittin the word "$+%#%," cursin I wouldn't say it
Me and dog couldn't relate, til a $+%#% I dated
Forgive my favorite word for hers and hers alike
But I learnt it from a song I heard and sorta liked
Yeah, for the icin, glamorized drug dealin was appealin
But the block club kept it from in front of our buildin
Gangsta rap-based filmings became the buildin blocks
For children with leakin ceilings catchin drippins with pots
Coupled with compositions from Pac, Nas's "It Was Written"
In the mix with my realities and feelings
Living conditions, religion, ignorant wisdom and artistic vision
I began to jot, tap the world and listen, it dropped...


My mom can't feed me,

my boyfriend beats me

I have sex for money,

the hood don't love me

The cops wanna kill me,

this nonsense built me

And I got noooo place to gooo

They bomb my village,

they call us killers

Took me off they welfare,

can't afford they health care

My teacher won't teach me,

my master beats me

And it huuurts meee SOUUUUUUUUUUUUUULLL!!!!


been going heavy on this lately

I found a condom on the ground that Johns would cum into and thought
What constitutes a prostitute is the pursuit of profit then they drop it
The homie in a suit pat her on the butt, then rock it
It seems I was seein' the same scene adopted
Prevalent in different things with the witnesses indifferent to stop it
They said don't knock it, mind ya business
His business isn't mine and that %%+#+ pimpin' got it

Classic track.

 

[getmoneyforever]

the whole song is so true and real life classic song in my eye

 

[mace40]

Songs like this are why I can't write Lupe completely off... I don't really like him as much as some, but I can't discount him outright.

[ravagebx]

Cake, Cake, Cake...my g you don't even know. I don't think people understand how I'll this song is. Every time I try to put someone onto Lupe thisis the first track I mention. Other rappers just ain't doing it like this, I swear. Definitely one of my favorite tracks in recent memory.

So through the Grim Reaper sickle sharpening
Macintosh marketing
Oil field augering
Brazilian adolescent disarmament
Israeli occupation
Islamic martyrdom, precise
Yeah, laser guided targeting
Oil for food, water, and terrorist organization harborin
Sand camouflage army men
CCF sponsorin, world conquerin, telephone monitorin
Louis Vuitton modelin, pornographic actress honorin
String theory ponderin, bullimic vomitin
Catholic priest fondlin, pre-emptive bombin and Osama and no bombin them
They breakin in my car again, deforestation and overloggin and
Hennessy and Hypnotic swallowin, hydroponic coughin and
All the world's ills, sittin on chrome 24-inch wheels, like that

It gets no better than that. I might have to break my sig of this out from the archives

Lu is downright amazing when he goes at it like this... ie: american terrorist, he say she say, steady mobbin etc etc etc

I had a ghetto boy bop a Jay Z boycott
Cause he said He "NEVER PRAYED TO GOD HE PRAYED TO GOTTI"
I'm thinkin God lee, God guard me from the Un-Godly
But by my 30'th watching of Streets is watchin I was back to givin props again
And That was bothering, about as uncomfortable as an untouchable touching you
The theme songs that _'s hustle to seem wrong but these scenes were comin true

Dom its on my F&L joe... you might wanna holla at you supplier about that
