[scratches: DJ Revolution]
Pretendin' that they know a real rap sound
Pretendin' that they know a real rap sound
Pretendin' that they know a real rap sound
Sweatin' and pretendin'
And pretendin'
And pretendin'

[Defari]
Drop, drop it on the one for Defari
Two for Joey Chavez
Three for all the real ****as who practice no nonsense
Here it comes an eruption from the tongue
Of a shogun out to rock everybody and leave no one
Bushido daimyo, samurai mental
I'm the type to slip the first punch
Stick
And crack your dental
[?]
Use the force Luke, one [?]
Your mouth feels hollow on the floor
Where's your Renamel?
But stupid [?] what do you do, you light a candle
Still amazed at you got in some ***t you couldn't handle
You gamble like horse track
Your whole style's throwback
Cats that you say are feelin' you
Don't even know you, black
Interesting, yes interesting indeed
So much proud on the outside yet inside your heart bleed
For the pedigree
No better than a penny thief
Centrally I'm well connected like [?]
Good grief
How many of you must emcee
When you far below
A-V-E-R
A-G-E
GPA's D
Close to a one point three
You wanna gleam but it's just not your thing
No S A Gianni

[Defari]
Lately the game changed so greatly
Independence putting pressure on ****as to make it straightly
I break beats down like earth
Use verbs
Pronouns and adverbs
Adjectives
Complete linguistics kick ballistics
Tips about life in LA and how to live it
Right
Make sure your right hand man
Don't wanna take your place then and hold your woman's hand
'cause it's the foundation built on sand
Evil eyes deep in the hearts
Of the jealous men
The better plan
Surround yourself
With those like yourself
Similar interest like music
Like yourself
When we come to the table they do for self
That way all brothers involved can stack wealth
And that's the key to mental health
My true group theory
Haters bite like alligators, I swear I know they ****in' hear me
And fear the
Breath of a Lik-a-wit
Barbershop King Tee, tha Liks and XZibit
Defari plus I pack that loot
Names stay ring the bell like Lee after the Bruce

[Defari]
Develop tools, skilled mechanisms that vocally I choose to use
Tools
That I use rhythmically
That make this hip-hop heads wanna move physically
Go around the world one time, you hear they mention me
Go back around the world again
Same history/hystery
It's no mystery Defari gets down around town
Equipped with the power
Of the seven seals
But emcees they feel guilty
Because behind closed doors they live a life that's filthy
Like savages they do anything for the green
They gots the havoc and once again skills far below average
Yo peep this equation
Who ever said that platinum record sales equals skill preservation
They mistaking
****as need to quit with that ***t
'cause there's not broke emcees who rip a platinum kit
Don't ever lose sight of this fact
That word pumps the blood of rap
It's lyrical combat
A lot of ****as ain't ready for that
Got one good verse pre-rehearsed and that's that
That's wack
At least I have book o' rhymes on your mind
I hate to touch a ****a and a wack rapper in the one time

While they be sweat-sweat-sweatin'
And-and and pretendin'
You ain't comin' for rap
Sweatin'
Sweatin'
Sweatin' and pretendin'
It just ain't right
Sweatin'-sweatin'-sweatin'
Sweatin'-sweatin'
Sweatin'
Sweatin' and pretendin'
But they ain't pay dues
Sweatin' and-and preten-pretendin' that they know the real rap sound
