Hyro The Hero
Noose Around Hip-Hop
(I'm gonna speak
All of these rappers don't give a damn about us
I mean, we the fans, we buy they cds, but they can't even support dudes...
?)
Six brothers fell victim to the system
Forced into rage from a towns racism
And vandalism
It takes a protest for the government to listen
I see Mos Def but these other rappers missing
What y'all don’t have time to even sign the petition
Or speak about Jena 6 on Music Television
Man y’all n***as tripping
Stand up for these n***as
Is y’all to busy fighting just to use the word n***a (n***a)
These same n***as made you n***as bigger
I figured you would fight Mr. President Jigga
You must be to busy underneath that umbrella
Got sucked up in the hype
Forgot that you's a black fella
The news hardly ever headlines what’s really wrong
They worry bout Britney Spears and some motherfucking dogs
Rappers have influence but don’t use it in their song
A noose around Hip Hop I’m
Fittin' ta take it off....
(You've gotta be a crazed individual to put a noose around 2Pac's statue
It's crazy
Cause if we go put a noose around elvis, We in trouble
We in jail for life
I see you could kill a little boy in boot camp and get free
But you could do a nickel or dime, for killin a dog
That's Fucked up!)
Did y’all rappers feel pain when they
Stripped and
Tortured and
Raped that
Young black sister up in West Virginia
Apparently you didn’t
You too busy getting richer
Worried about your money
You ain’t worried bout your people
The fans all adore you
Y’all "the voice of the youth"
2Pac paved the road
None of y’all follow through
How the fuck is y’all the truth
I ain’t buying what you selling
You speak about a movement but none of y’all rebelling
50 cent and Kanye ain’t motherfucking beef
Beef is when George Bush and Bin Laden meet
And then you got the nerve to boo Bill Cosby
You won’t follow him but you’ll follow Jay Z?
Embarrassing the color I can’t take it any longer
Y’all got money and forgot all the problems
I do what I can to make all of us stronger
(Harder Better Faster Stronger....)
(This world we livin in is so fucked up
You got this girl tortured, and she ain't even headline news
You worried about brittany spear's kids
But brittany spears kids eat
Your kids go to school hungry
You got the california fire, with george bush show up quick
Wher he at during Katerina though?)
They put a noose around 2Pac
How bout we paint over Elvis?
The color that made him famous
That black voice that he sang with
That black soul that he danced and he came with
Its outrageous
They did the same to Jesus
Just to trick us and deceive us
They painted him white and all of his believers
Threw crack into our area and turn us into dealers
I ain’t trying to be an ass
I’m just trying to be a leader
Cause young black men ain’t on they muthafuckin job
Too busy buying Jordan’s and rims on they car
N***as pushing 30 trying to be rap star
Instead of caring for they kids so they grades ain’t subpar
Screaming fuck the law when you fight amongst yourselves
N***a blame you
Stop blaming someone else
Them white boys ain’t the reason why you fail
It’s the choices that you make that land your black ass in Jail
(Through some connections
I got a call about two months ago from Terrance Howard
He was kickin' me some knowledge about the word N***a
He told me I could be a diamond and I could stop usin' it
You know, you got people these days
And they ain't gon' listen unless you spittin it how they spittin it
They listen to me with my pants all saggin off my ass before they listen to Bill Cosby
I don't get it either
Bill Cosby is the picture perfect representation of what black men should be like!
And y'all Boo-ing this man
You out your mind?
You don't love yourself?
Y'all Crazy!
Out there fightin for stuff you don't own
What's wrong with y'all?
Y'all listen to these rappers and all that talkin about gettin money
And they ain't gettin nothin
They ain't gettin knowledge
Y'all got a little kid?
Give them a Black and White doll
They'll pick the white doll over the black doll
They'll say that the black doll's dirty
We've gotta change
And y'all mexicans and black stop fightin' each other
For real)
