lyrics

1) No radio! I've been preaching this here for years.

A broken record to my peers, they ignore it or don't hear.

2) And I'm here, the underground, city shining above me,

We hold it down so lovely, we so profound, it's troubling.

3) If I change my flow and trajectory would it please the masses infecting the

Youth with passion instead of the fact they trapped in this treachery?

4) Because this art is some weaponry used to free or control.

But it seems for so long they dulled their senses, thinking it's all.

5) About that radio message, hearing the copies & testin'

The boundaries blurred through pressing of pointless shit, it's depressing.

6) I know SO MANY MC's that'll fight and kill for this,

But they can't get play on the radio cause they real plus intelligent.

7) And I thought of so many ways that I could state and say this shit,

But it all comes back around to the one fact that this

8) Nation is happy being ignorant, I guess it truly is bliss,

They numbed out from the hits and don't even know we exist. No Radio!!!


1) So I did some thinking and plotting,
not gonna be playin that possum,

I gotta be active, attacking, this demographic will blossom.

2) All about that flamboyant posture and that monotonous tone,

Gotta have that degrading message with no apologies thrown.

3) Make no mistake, there's a method, you can write your lyrics as reckless,

As you want as long as you put in a triplet within a lyric to finish a section.

4) Gotta keep em guessing. And the young kids stressing about impressing,

The women in their life that they're not supposed to care about, plus getting arrested.

5) Don't forget about the rest kid, all the guns and the drugs and the women and fame,

Make em feel bad they're not pimpin their women but then they say it's ok gang bang.

6) Man, this world is so twisted. Shoot a man and your mystic,

Do good and you're listed with the rest of the misfits, can't win with a missed trick.

7) Success and you missed it. The whole plot is Idiocracy.

Got us right where they want us to be, fulfilling their prophecy.

8) It's just radio, right? Not what they say but the beat that's tight.

I making the music for my life, y'all keep walking the piper's pipe. No Radio.
