Only way we can stand tough, is to do so but mercilessly…
We have to grow mentally, which we can do through diversity…
Speed up a slow process, and do so with urgency…
If we wait another minute we might have an emergency…

Rap keeps getting bigger, mentally we grow and grow...
But who's really gon stand they ground when we go toe to toe...
Its safe behind a keyboard, the security feels tight...
But don’t talk smack if you wouldn’t talk it in real life...
Face to face, most people see eye to eye...
Or else they get lit up, and squashed like fire flies...
Have shit looking like a game of smear the queer...
Make sure that smile don’t stretch from ear to ear...
In real life if i got the chance, to meet some of these kids...
I'd crack their jaws, and break somebody’s ribs…
Don’t let them get away with anything, like it or not…
Only way I’ll back down is if I get killed or shot…
But a shot, only slows me down because I won’t be stopped…
And you better beware when that next open mic drops…

Sometimes vets can be assholes, their methods are unjust…
But they’re treated like a weapon, back off when that gun busts…
No chance of survival, can’t compete with your rival…
But you’ll sacrifice it all just to earn a new title…
Can’t say I understand it, kids getting away like a bandit…
The way there is no consequence it seems like they planed it…
I can really say in which way it affects me…
The way they are so arrogant is totally vexing…
But I’ll give them their props, at least they can act hot…
Battling people below them, I’d call it a cash crop…
Can’t really battle worth a damn, at least they can back talk…
The way they act though, they must be on that crack rock…

This game has gotten me puzzled, my voice has been muzzled…
Guys come on in for the huddle, no we’re not gon be subtle…
I’m sick of the bullshit, how am I gonna do this…
Every attempt has failed, why wont this one be useless?
Were all given a privilege, most of us abuse it…
And we all have a choice, if your mad why’d you choose it?
We all do this for a reason, we do this for music…
If you think something else, move it or loose it…
And since your givin a choice, you can choose to refuse it…
But if you didn’t and you mad, in my eyes you blew it…
And if you really love rap, then why don’t you show it…
Through your words and your songs, that’s why were all poets…
We should learn to love this, this shit seems like its magic…
And when you start to disrespect rap, that’s where it gets tragic…
