You will not be able to stay home, brother. You will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out. You will not be able to lose yourself on skag and skip, Skip out for beer during commercials, Because the revolution will not be televised. ... The revolution will not be right back after a message about a white tornado, white lightning, or white people. You will not have to worry about a dove in your bedroom, a tiger in your tank, or the giant in your toilet bowl. The revolution will not go better with Coke. The revolution will not fight the germs that may cause bad breath. The revolution will put you in the driver's seat. The revolution will not be televised, will not be televised, will not be televised, will not be televised. The revolution will be no re-run brothers; The revolution will be live. Gil Scot Heron The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (1974)
that and "two words" or the only songs I really listen to off that album still. some people think that line is corny, but I think its nice and I'm not a big fan of his rapping. but he does drop some clever lines.
All I need is one blunt, one page, and one pen One prayer - tell God forgive me for one sin Matter fact maybe more than one, look back at all the hatred against me, fu**alla them Jesus died at age 33, there's thirty-three shots from twin glocks there's sixteen apiece, that's thirty-two Which means, one of my guns was holdin 17 Twenty-seven hit your crew, six went into you Everybody gotta die sometime; hope your funeral never gets shot up, bullets tear through the innocent Nothin is fair, ni**** roll up, shootin from wheelchairs My heart is racin, tastin revenge in the air I let the sh** slide for too many years, too many times Now I'm strapped with a couple of macs, too many nines If y'all ni**** really wit me get busy load up the semis Do more than just hold it explode the clip until you empty There's nothin in our way - they bust, we bust, they rust, we rust Lead flyin, feel it? I feel it in my gut THAT WE TAKE THESE BITC*** TO WAR, LIE 'EM DOWN CAUSE WE STRONGER NOW MY NI***THE TIME IS NOW!! Nas "One Mic"
I think the two best modern day lyricists in hip hop are Nas and Eminem. However, I would have to give Nas the edge over Em because his delivery/style is better.
I've had this one in my head all day: I didn't even have to use my AK I can't believe today was a good day -Ice Cube I also really dig damn near everything from NWA, solo Eazy-E, etc. Woke up quick at about noon. Just thought that I had to be in Compton soon. Rollin' down the street in my six fo'.... etc. The homies used to tell me that she wasn't no good But I'm the maniac in black, Mr. Snoop Eastwood So I figure *****z wouldn't trip with mine Guess what? Got gaffled by one time -Snoop, b****es ain't sh*t
Uh oh, i might be leavin the earth soon My girl gonna kill me if she smells the scent of your perfume Its gonna be a clip toss if I go back With stains of your lip gloss on my throwback She wont care if im a platinum rapper If she catch me with an empty magnum wrapper So keep it on the down low call the car celly You seen what happened with Mr. Big and R Kelly Fabolous - Can't Let You Go I was rollin' around, in my mind it occurred What if God was a her? Would I treat her the same? Would I still be runnin' game on her? In what type of ways would I want her? Would I want her for her mind or her heavenly body? Couldn't be out gettin' bogus with someone so godly If I was wit' her would I still be wantin' my ex? The lies, the greed, the weed, the sex Wouldn't be ashamed to give her part of my check Wearin' her cross, I mean the heart on my neck Her I would reflect on the streets of the Chi' Ride wit' her, 'cause I know for me she'd die Through good and bad call on her like I'm chirpin' her Couldn't be jealous 'cause other brothers worship her Walk this earth for her, glory, I'm grateful To be in her presence I try to stay faithful Common - Faithful I think my favorite is Notorious BIG - Gimme The Loot http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/notoriousbig/gimmetheloot.html Its not the same with asterisks so I'm just linkin it.
so you think you can be what you want to be? you just have to work hard enough tigermission. you can even get a purple m3.
That song has been constantly ringing in my brain for quite some time now One of my all time favorite is 2pac's lost souls Maybe I was just a Lost Soul, trapped in time Livin in between life, and the cracks were blind Even though we had hope for dreams that never came Yet and still we all feel pain Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
you got to go to Illmatic for Nas "my pen taps the paper then my brain's blank I see dark streets, hustlin brothers who keep the same rank Pumpin for somethin, some uprise, plus some fail Judges hangin *****z, uncorrect bails, for direct sales My intellect prevails from a hangin cross with nails I reinforce the frail, with lyrics that's real Word to Christ, a disciple of streets, trifle on beats I decifer prophecies through a mic and say peace."
Ya mom is so fat (how fat is she?) Ya mama is so big and fat that she can get busy with twenty-two burritos, but times are rough I seen her in the back of Taco Bell with handcuffs The sad fact (what?) ya mama smokes crack (what?) She got a burning yearning and there's no turning back Her knuckles drag down to the ground when she walk Spit comes out that b**** mouth when she talk Naked on a mountain top, tootin on a flizoot Ridin on a horse drinking whisky out a bizoot She's got the wings and teeth of an african bat Her middle name is Mudbone and on top of all that: Ya mama got a glass eye with the fish in it (3X) Ya mama, ya mama, ya mama
there are a lot of great lyrics to put in here but this one is a severely underrated and overlooked gem from mos def and talib kweli..... "Give me the fortune, keep the fame," said my man Louis I agreed, know what he mean because we live the truest lie I asked him why we follow the law of the bluest eye He looked at me, he thought about it Was like, "I'm clueless, why?" The question was rhetorical, the answer is horrible Our morals are out of place and got our lives full of sorrow And so tomorrow comin later than usual Waitin' on someone to pity us While we findin beauty in the hideous They say money's the root of all evil but I can't tell YouknowhatImean, pesos, francs, yens, cowrie shells, dollar bills Or is it the mindstate that's ill? Creating crime rates to fill the new prisons they build Over money and religion there's more blood to spill The wounds of slaves in cotton fields that never heal What's the deal? A lot of cats who buy records are straight broke But my language universal they be recitin my quotes While R&B singers hit bad notes, we rock the boat of thought, that my man Louis' statements just provoked Caught up, in conversations of our personal worth Brought up, through endangered species status on the planet Earth Survival tactics means, bustin gats to prove you hard Your firearms are too short to box with God Without faith, all of that is illusionary Raise my son, no vindication of manhood necessary [M.D.] Not strong [T.K.] Only aggressive [M.D.] Not free [T.K.] We only licensed [M.D.] Not compassioniate, only polite [T.K.] Now who the nicest?
