Rob Markman I Think We Lost The Culture
[Intro]
Just got some shit on my mind
Hear me Rich?
[Verse]
I really think we lost the culture
And I wish that we could start it over
These days it's far too much to shoulder
We cut the grass, still live amongst the cobras
They rather be in the open now
It's feelin' kinda hopeless now
And I be really tryna hold it down
The world don't stop, oh nah it's just gonna go around
And they dying to be famous
Turn the camera on just to do some lame shit
Like wear a wedding dress and swallow AKs
Oh Lord I'm tryna maintain
I never understand it
We retweet bullshit, they get a deal, and we panic
Then we wonder where it went wrong
Hit the timeline and then we vent more
I mean I really think we lost it
Goddamn man who's fault is it?
Used to be a line, feel like we crossed it
And I ain't even mad, I'm just being honest
These new cats really got me kinda puzzled
All this trollin', i think that we in trouble
Nah I ain't tryna judge you
Cause all we ever told you was that rap was a hustle
And the media full of shit too
Cause most these sites only care about a click through
I be tryin' but I'm guilty of the shit too
Interviewing artists that I ain't even in to
I talk to fans, I can tell it hurts
Watch our biggest artists go to Ellen first
I'm talking shit to all y'all
See if she give a f..ck when all ya shit fall off
I really think that it's lost
But ima spit a couple bars, cause It used to be ours
Kid Rock and Limp Bizkit soft
These vultures run the charts, but they don't get it at all
All they style yeah they get it from us
All I could do is just sit in disgust
I never wanted to be a rockstar
Hip-Hop till my muthafuckin heart stop
I be tryna see the good in it
But every time I look they separate the hood from it
The internet run the shit, strictly on some numbers shit
What you supposed to do when you love it and you come from it
And dude who gave his opinion
How you talkin down on Rob, when you get robbed for a living
Got couple screws loose, couple chains missin
This a warning shot, trust me, my aims different
I really think we lost the culture
