I found my griptape
Logic
GENRE
(Intro)
Yeah
Turn my mic down a little bit
I got that [...]
Alright turn the mic down
Yeah yeah yeah (just the volume...)
Yeah yeah
Ahh yeah
Alright check!
(Verse)
Paparazzi make me wanna fuckin kill myself
TMZ make me wanna fuckin kill myself
But no matter what they do I know I'm still myself
Stay strong and in the end love life and my health
If I said fuck Cole and Kendrick and Drake
Then everyone in media would take the bait
And post that shit
But when I say how much I love people ghost that shit
And when I talk about my feelings people roast that shit
Tell me I got a lot of money I should boast that shit
One minute you're the greatest and the next you the worst
Logic you too lyrical to be having fun with a verse
You got to come 10/10 every time 10/10 every rhyme
It's always gotta be perfect within my mind
But wait, that shit ain't fun to me
Look at what would arguably one of the greatest modern rappers in this day and age is done to me
It's make me hate rap cause it used to be passing skill
Now it's all fucking heading downhill
It's more about the image
[set the game not the scrimmage?]
It's not about the music if it's all about the image
And how we use it now what the fuck?
Hip-hop was Run-D.M.C
Now it's run from TMZ
Now it's everything you do no matter what it is has to be done perfectly, shit
Somebody hiding being an avatar said I'm starting to look old
When I'm 30 what the fuck you expect?
Should I use make-up to cover the wrinkles in my neck?
Should I cut open the back of my skull and pay 100,000$ so my hair look fold?
Should I write music from my heart? Or let a 20 something rapper do all the work while I chart?
Shit! We live in a world of instant reviews
[Where] people who aren't even your fans [dawn your art however they choose?]
Artists used to make music for people with similar views
Not for struggling critics tryin' to increase their YouTube views
My damn! I mean...
Once upon a time not long ago
We'd anticipate release date [...]
And take the bus miles and miles all the way to the store
And pay 20$ just to hear our favorite artist flow
And this the type of shit our kids ain't never gonna know
What it truly means, just to be a fan and not constantly critique [and shit] whenever you can
Cause you had the power, from the device in your hand
There's no more value in music...
Don't get me wrong!
I love having...
But I just feel like this ADD? culture got it twisted
You really have an opinion on an album in 20 minutes after you listen but you fuckin completely missed it
Cause one million songs drop every seven days
Which only gives one artist a week to be praised
Shit I'm done playin that game...
But I think I finally found my footin
I found my griptape
(Outro)
And then we kick push, kick push, kick push, kick push
Coast
Think I finally found my griptape
Shout out that boy Lupe one time too
Greatest alive, greatest alive!
Yeah
Turn my mic down a little bit
I got that [...]
Alright turn the mic down
Yeah yeah yeah (just the volume...)
Yeah yeah
Ahh yeah
