Took me a while before I decided to this some of y'all will look at me
And say yo he new to this, who this? I'll let y'all underestimate
Let y'all go investigate and find out I'm the renegade that you gonna love to hate
For goodness sake, let me just regulate calling out all of y'all
Who try to sedate the masses with what you propagate
You thought consciousness was late well here's you checkmate
I guess after this many will fixate or try to implicate that I don't have what it takes
Then I'll have to demonstrate now this is the cycle I came to aggravate
Cause while you desecrate the game I came to cultivate and culminate not for fame
And real hip hop I came to regenerate, resuscitate, recuperate
I'm just saying I ain't playing hold up man
You could try to defame put shame on my name man You can't shut me down
You can say I don't belong in the game, that's ok You can't shut me down
I really don't care what any of you saying You can't shut me down
You push the stop button and my voice is still playing You can't shut me down
I'm from the days and the place of the boombox
And hardknocks wearing dreadlocks on hot spots
Where the cops and gunshots are alarm clocks
If you hear the hammer cock then you know your deadlocked
Sex out of wedlock, tecs are preferred stock
Youngins go to dead drops poisoning themselves as their head knocks
They're shell shocked, they open up the door when they hear hell knock
(Thump, thump, who is it?) Keep hoping but their feeling trapped
Like their choking in an airlock, to see the future they dare not
They quick to shoot ya cause they don't have a fare shot so they care not
They really don't share a lot, so I come in on your block like an onslaught hit you with a Megawatt of realness and food for thought make sure that you feel this yeah
And you do get taught (That's it man)
You could try to defame put shame on my name man You can't shut me down
You can say I don't belong in the game, that's ok You can't shut me down
I really don't care what any of you saying You can't shut me down
You push the stop button and my voice is still playing You can't shut me down
I had a lot to say on this new track, at the end of the day like KRS
It's the return of the boom bap
I'll have you zoom back
I'll beat box on the commute back on an afternoon nap
Your still asking whose that I'll excuse that and assume that and conclude that
You know where to find the truth at
Mr. D3STINY you question me
And I'll dispute that, refute that hip hop is dead when the absolute fact is that
It's been mislead, misread
So we have to counteract take back the artifact
Bring back the art in rap feel it like a heart attack cause the lyrics
And the beat all up in your cardiac
Ay yo I run this free
Just like a run this free just like a running back
And Anno Domini is on the beat and he's the quarterback, Yo yo Spit that
You could try to defame put shame on my name man
You can't shut me down
You can say I don't belong in the game
That's ok You can't shut me down I really don't care what any of you saying
You can't shut me down
You push the stop button and my voice is still playing
You can't shut me down down down
