lyrics

I'm not as prolific as I'd like to be
Sometimes the words just don't come to me
When I'm itching to express myself in verse
Week-long writer's block is an abominable curse
-
But I won't kill the filters to increase the output
Tho it's maddening to stare at that blank notebook
I'd rather make one decent jam in my career
Than churn out 4 mediocre albums a year
-
Some MCs brag about the volume of their rhymes
but I dig quality over quantity any time
Everlast claims to have more rhymes than the Bible's got Psalms
but there's an hidden double meaning when he says he drops bombs
-
see, writing a thousand rhymes a month don't impress me
slow down a bit and maybe find the rhyme that's best, G
and even if you crank out the tracks, in the end
all you find is that you've run out of ink for your pens

Some rappers talk about how famous they are
Goin' on about how they're some big rich star
Well if you think that it's talent that gets your name in lights
I've got two words for you: Vanilla Ice
-
A fat wallet doesn't always make you upper class
Coz an ass with lots of money is just a rich ass
And if there's homeboys and hotties all flocking to you
just because you get paid, well Holmes, they ain't true blue
-
And I got news for y'all, even if you hit the charts
Milli Vanilli did, they were done before the start
It doesn't make you great if you become a million-seller
New Kids On The Block sold tonnes of records, what's that tell ya?
-
All I'm saying is that the bragging's getting out of hand
Shrink the egos a bit so the minds can expand
Smarts and heart beat out a big head
Make your rhymes real... 'nuff said.
