Occupy (99​%​)

lyrics

Eyo check this, I don’t got no lexus, no rocks, no necklace,
I don’t rock rolexes, role with big-shot, Guap collecters,
I’m not so reckless, not so macho, I’m not so sexist
hip-hop professors judge me, but I never stopped fo’ lectures.
I never popped no teck cause I'm not an old G, I’m not connected,
never cocked no weapon to kill some rat that the cops protected.
So why scream « watch yo step kid? » I won’t play roles.
My phoney foes brag about the dough they own, with okay flows.
They probably boycott colgate yo, when they spit kids hold they nose.
I know they won’t change, no, these no brainers got no huevos !
Time to occupy hip-hop too, so much is going wrong !
How can y’all relate to a Lil Wayne song with what is going on?
You’ve babbled that barbarian-battle-bar a billion times now.
A little bit of this bitter reality should fit in your rhymes pall.
Bling blinging is dead, we didn’t listen to shit that you said.
You spitting generic ass lyrics while everyone killing so they’re innocent children get fed !

Occupy… Hip-Hop…
Squash the leaders…
They’re gonna Watch us…
As the game crumbles…
If we fail…
Try to guide your pen…
We mighty my friends…
We the 99 percent, yeah !

Kiddo that’s right, give us that mic, ‘cause you gotta listen to what we spit.
We preachin’ the truth, we teaching the youth, ain’t no gimmicks to con these kids.
We just wanna kill a silly cliché, show you what lyrical content is,
We just wanna help a motherfucker feel free, start lifting his consciousness.
If we get a couple kids to understand that, well it’s an accomplishment.
If I make a little guy wanna sit and write, it’s the biggest of compliments.
All he gotta do is not follow the trend and keep building his confidence.
If tradition gets followed, when he gets older, children will follow him !
But the one percent keep climbing, shining, get a bigger cheque, better life, get greedier.
Better not stay bitter, better boycott the bullshit hype, better fight the media.
Fuck the shite they feeding ya, even though following might be easier.
Learn a bit of wisdom from the old school rappers like an encyclopedia.
Get them vocodeurs off your albums, think before you talk about guns,
Don’t say shit you shouldn’t have said, better watch your mouth, there’s always outcomes.
It’s not about swag, not about broads, not about fashion, not about cars,
not about autographs, corny rap stars… It’s all about knowledge, all about bars !

Occupy… Hip-Hop…
Squash the leaders…
They’re gonna Watch us…
As the game crumbles…
If we fail…
Try to guide your pen…
We mighty my friends…
We the 99 percent, yeah !
Occupy… Modify… Hip-Hop… Gotta try
Squash the leaders… Solid lies
They’re gonna Watch us… Horrified
As the game crumbles… Before their eyes
If we fail… Try again
Try to guide your pen… and fight the trend
We mighty my friends… We the ninety nine percent, yeah !
