Method Man]


Damn, I hate it when it rain


Ever since I came in the game


Some hated on the fame


A lot of ****** done changed


And started actin' strange


Even labels turning they backs


And started backing lames


Radio is the same, whole lotta speculatin'


These mutherfuckas defacatin' on the name


Wu-Tang, if this is where the hip-hop is


Radio lyin' then, that ain't where hip-hop live


It lives in the streets, we eat to live they livin' to eat


I'm fed up, that ***** rides in 'em, givin 'em sleep


R.I.P., make me the king of all I see


And when death call I'm good I got call ID


See it was planned in the front, now they just gon' front


Like my joints is on proactive, and they just don't bump


Then ****** gon' say I lost my skill


when in fact they all been programmed


And lost they feel, fo' real





Chorus: [Lauryn](Method Man]


They've got so much things to say right now


They've got so much things to say


They've got so much things to say right now (Yeah)


They got so much things to say (Yo)





[Method Man]


Damn, another artist chokes again


They ain't cut as close as him or even broke the skin


See how ****** ain't yo friends, when there ain't no ends


Don't care who the case offend, don't underrate my pen


I got what it takes to win, while ya'll are thinking I'm trash


Loving the taste of success and this drink in my glass


Watch 'em cosign that whack ****, give it a pass till it's gone


Quicker than Red, can't get rid of them clubs


When they're wrong, call the cops, they credibility's shot


It's time to learn, what hot really is and really is not


Off brain ******, Meth gonna let 'em know off top


Don't get smacked on dvds, trying to show off blocks


I can't stop cause my enemies plot, or cause the cops want me


Shackled and locked inside the penalty box


And while they waitin' for my **** to flop


They gettin' pimped like hoes


Sellin' they *** just to get my spot, come on man





Repeat Chorus





[Method Man]


Ask Miss Hill, half these critics ain't got half this skill


Often so hungry that they have to steal


If I didn't have my deal, and didn't have this mass appeal


Then I'm back up in that trap, swingin' crack it's real


And that ain't worth the time, so search and find a new nerve


And here's three words: stop working mine


It take a lot more to hurt my pride


Jerk my vibe more than media lies, cry when dirt dog die *****


The last album wasn't feeling my style


This time my foot up in they *** but they feelin' me now


Cause Tical, he put his heart in every track he do


But somehow yall find someway to give a whack review


It ain't all good, they writin' that I'm Hollywood


Tryin' to tell you my **** ain't ghetto and they hardly hood


Come on man, until you dudes can write some rhymes


Keep that in mind when you find yourself reciting mines

Reply:The thing that is wrong with hip-hop is the people in the game of hip-hop....There's too much compeition in the game....Toooo many people wanna be everybody and like do the same thing they do.....People got same beats and everything....An example of d4l.... and dem franchize boyz....Doing the same dance same beats....And then now we got soulja boy...he saying yule in about every damn song...ya feel me...
Reply:I hate to say this to delusional folks at Yahoo Answers, but what's wrong with Hip Hop is YOU. The hyopcritical, ignorant fans who don't appreciate good music and only eat what you are fed on BET and MTV.





There are way more rappers with substance out there and other rappers who exist besides Hurricane Chris, Lil Wayne, TI, and Soulja Boy.





I think people arejust attacking Hip Hop because it's popular. Hip Hop doesn't really get enough respect or credit and that's because most ppl don't understand it.





It's not for everybody. If you dont understand Hip Hop, lyrics, and etc... Fine, but don't judge something you know nothing about.
