[Intro- K.A.A.N]
Uh huh, yes lawd
Knowledge
Shoutout Forever M.C mayne
Yes lawd
[Verse 1- K.A.A.N]
Uh, look
Said I just started out with nothin', yeah
Still putting in my time, that 10 thousand hour shift
Me?, I'm a workaholic
You just complain and [?] panic
And the pressure's setting in, you could feel it
Basic, that's the perfect term if I'm tryna describe you
Better attitude's the only thing I can prescribe you
Bottom but I rose
Don't get exposed, I'll come and find you
My lines can move the masses
You barely got off your ass kid
No passive aggressive tendencies, I'm more than direct
The hardest workin' man alive since James Brown ain't living
You must be kidding, tomorrow isn't promised, it's given
I'm striking while the iron's hot, you pick it up when it's lukewarm
Can't figure the flow out, I pick up the mic and I shows out
Speak on the shit that I know 'bout
All of my n***as that [?]
My operation is [?]
That means I that do what you never did
And I've been where you never been, they can't get in too
Let's not talk about the best, that's not a list that you're in dude
It's evidence of a mission with this lyrical jut-jitsu
You was focused on the lights
Supposed to focus on the writing though
Enlighten those that way off, they think they 'bout to take off
This game will steal your whole life, Bernie Madoff, then laugh at ya
Mad rappers and bitter artists, they never last
The simple gimmicks don't work, they tryin' something else
Assistance at it's best, but the efforts were poorly given
Take your pride and attention and place 'em in the proper places
Amazin' what a little patience does for the weak
Let me beseech you with this elegance and bless you again
Everything it comes in due time, there's more to explain, lawd
[Chorus]
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad,mad yeah they never last
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad,mad yeah they never last
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad,mad yeah they never last
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad, mad, mad
[Verse 2- Hi-Rez]
(ye-yeah, Rez)
Yo' whole life is an illusion
What you rappin' 'bout is worse than pollution
The institution's so fucked, no solution
Catch a contact be around them losers and fiends
You all glued to the screen, chasing after the green
You don't have no life, we are not alike
No Adidas, but I been earnin' my stripes
I crush mics, I'm the Iron Fist
Your Purple Rain got you high as Prince
When I die, I pray you dyin' quick
All the frauds rappin' 'bout shit you don't do
Comin' from the southside like it's soul food
Rappin since '02 lord I could show you
I've put my whole life in Pro Tools
You lyin' in your rhymes, every single time, I ain't gotta lie
It's Forever, K.A.A.N and Rez
I've been doing this since birth and I'll do it till death, Rez
[Chorus]
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad,mad yeah they never last
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad,mad yeah they never last
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad,mad yeah they never last
Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers
Mad, mad, mad
