Bavu Blakes - Up^South lyrics
Your rating:
Rappers talk how they try to elevate I say later for that and levitate West coast they call it hella great East coast they say I represent Up^south texas resident But below nobody I never been Confident and it's evident Never step on stage hesitant Never feel out of my element Act a fool, still intelligent Some folks rap for the hell of it Saying nothing, now that's negligent How many of y'all know where Texas is? Stolen land, formerly Mexican Southwestern like my next of kin Supreme specimen with a pen I wreck until the day of reckoning No choice but to listen in Snared by the drums they draw you in We making rap music raw again I was wondering if y'all ready For how I'm coming it's a little heavy Where I'm from they answer 'already' Not just another killer pimp medley Another set of dubs on a chevy That's my folks and it does affect me I'll be damned if I let it define me I didn't learn to rap in the 90's Nowadays rap is regional Hot groups are just seasonal But my blessings are unbelievable Any goal set's achievable So me gettin' mine is feasible I'm trying to take it international Make the states wait last, y'know Gotta figure it out as you go Mic checks gotta cash or you owe Execute or get executed Don't mention it if you won't do it Why play hype when you're not into it 'Cause it hurts how little joy you get Grown man whippin' these boys with it Elderly 'cause I'm cleverly witted Tell me straight-faced you can't feel it Look me in the eyes, show me your spirit That's what I thought, let 'em shift or drop Like your positioning in hip-hop Unreal with a bunch of phony moves Mockin' our concepts and attitudes But that's not enough, 'cause there's more to us Fake as you wanna be but can't do us Better figure your own way to bust Or you're just tumbleweed in the dust
