Fav Rap lyrics
Been really getting into Rap lately... I've often said I didn't like rap back in the past, but I still liked some, it's got too much rhythm not to enjoy.
now, I listen to rap as much as I listen to rock music. My favourite rap artist has got to be The Roots btw, though I do enjoy a vast variety. So, this thread is to post your favourite rap lyrics, and right now I like the tune Triumph by Masta Killa and the Wu Tang Clan... but I'm sure there's better, here it goes:

So much on my mind that I can't recline
Blastin holes in the night till she bled sunshine Breathe in, inhale vapors from bright stars that shine Breathe out, weed smoke, retrace the skyline Heard the bass ride out like an ancient mating call I can't take it ya'll I can hear the city breathing Chest heavin, against the flesh of the evening Sigh before we die like the last train leaving - Mos Def "Respiration" |

We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes. Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live and let's change the way we treat each other. You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do what we gotta do, to survive. And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace It's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do But now I'm back with the blacks givin' it back to you Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp slap you up You gotta learn to hold ya own they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone But tell the cops they can't touch this I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool my mama didn't raise no fool And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped & I never get to lay back 'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs some buck that I roughed up way back comin' back after all these years rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is -Tupac |

Also, Eric B. & Rakim - Microphone Fiend
"I was a fiend before I became a teen I melted microphone instead of cones of ice cream Music orientated so when hip-hop was originated Fitted like pieces of puzzles, complicated 'Cause I grabbed the mic and try to say, " Yes y'all!" They tried to take it, and say that I'm too small Cool, 'Cause I don't get upset I kick a hole in the speaker, pull the plug, then I jet Back to the lab ...without a mic to grab So then I add all the rhymes I had One after the other one, then I make another one To dis the opposite then ask if the brother's done I get a craving like I fiend for nicotine But I don't need a cigarette, know what I mean? I'm raging, ripping up the stage and Don't it sound amazing 'cause every rhyme is made and Thought of, Cuz it's sort of...an addiction, Magnatized by the mixing Vocals, vocabulary, your verses, you're stuck in The mic is a drano, volcanoes erupting, Rhymes overflowing, gradually growing Everything is written in the cold, so it can coin- cide, my thoughts to guide, 48 tracks to slide The invincible, microphone fiend Rakim Spread the word, 'cause I'm in E-F-F-E-C-T A smooth operator operating correctly, But back to the problem, I gotta habit, You can't solve it, silly rabbit The prescription is a hypertone that's thorough when I fiend for a microphone like herion Soon as the bass kicks, I need a fix Gimme a stage and a mic and a mix And I'll put you in a mood or is it a state of unawareness? Beware, it's the reanamator! A menace to a microphone, a lethal weapon An assasinator, if the people ain't stepping You see a part of me that you never seen When I'm fiending for a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend..." |

My beloved lets get down to business Mental self defensive fitness (Yo) bum rush the show You gotta go for what you know Make everybody see, in order to fight the powers that be Lemme hear you say... Fight the Power Chorus Elvis was a hero to most But he never meant shit to me you see Straight up racist that sucker was Simple and plain Mother fuck him and John Wayne Cause I'm Black and I'm proud I'm ready and hyped plus I'm amped Most of my heroes don't appear on no stamps Sample a look back you look and find Nothing but rednecks for 400 years if you check Don't worry be happy Was a number one jam Damn if I say it you can slap me right here (Get it) lets get this party started right Right on, c'mon What we got to say Power to the people no delay To make everybody see In order to fight the powers that be (Fight the Power) Public Enemy Pure F'n Excellence by Chuck D and the Boyz |

Aesop Rock : Daylight
Who split how many freaks with box cuts of a high road bellow Heads ripped! Watch red bricks turn yellow Sort of similar to most backbones at camp Icarus Raw feelings start congregating at pamper for bickering Life's not a bitch life is a beautiful woman Your only call her a bitch because she won't let you get that pussy Maybe she didn't feel y'all shared any similar interests Or maybe you're just an asshole who couldn't sweet talk the princess Mr. Lif : Home of the Brave : Headline: Bush steals the presidency He needs the backing of the media what could the remedy be? The country's headed for recession reminiscent of the Great Depression Are lives worth a world of power? Easy question Planes hit the towers and the Pentagon Killing those the government wasn't dependant on It's easy to control the scared so they keep us in fear With their favorite Middle Eastern demon named Bin Laden this year Bush disguises blood lust as patriotism Convincing the living to love "Operation Let's Get 'Em" But when he realized we don't support their attacks They needed something to distract, hmm, anthrax This further demonizes Afghanis So Americans cheer while we kill their innocent families And what better place to start a war To build a pipeline to get the oil that they had wanted before America supported the Taliban To get Russia out of Afghanistan That's how they got the arms in They're in a war against the Northern Alliance And we can't build a pipeline in hostile environments Here's what your history books won't show: You're a dead man for fucking with American dough They killed several birds with one stone While you're at home with anti-terrorism up in your dome But my eyes are wide open and my TV is off Great, 'cause I save on my electricity cost And you can wave that piece of shit flag if you dare But they killed us because we've been killing them for years |

Sage Francis: The Buzz Kill:
I was B-boyin' in my former body Singing all the songs at parties Now I'm like don't let nobody Through the door in the hotel lobby I'd wear Armani if they endorse me So people who are poor can rob me Then forcefully sex me up Color me confused when they paint issues black and white Resuscitate their grey matter right back to life It's my destiny she wants me she beckons She left me for dead but death didnt want no sloppy seconds I'm certified fresh Our freedom kissed the French for their political dissent Like *mwah* I do it with tongue this time And take that bovine blood out your wine And take that statue back to the lab it was created at Your huddled masses yearning to breath free Take 'em back! Your homeless tempest-tossed to me Take 'em back! The U-S-A has cracked Tupac : Dear Mama : Pour out some liquor and I reminsce, cause through the drama I can always depend on my mama And when it seems that I'm hopeless You say the words that can get me back in focus When I was sick as a little kid To keep me happy there's no limit to the things you did And all my childhood memories Are full of all the sweet things you did for me And even though I act craaazy I gotta thank the Lord that you made me There are no words that can express how I feel You never kept a secret, always stayed real And I appreciate, how you raised me And all the extra love that you gave me I wish I could take the pain away If you can make it through the night there's a brighter day Everything will be alright if ya hold on It's a struggle everyday, gotta roll on And there's no way I can pay you back But my plan is to show you that I understand You are appreciated this verse always gets me a bit ![]() |
