[Intro] This game here called ‘Hip Hop’ The streets The MC’s that roam in it can be rather evil Success is wanted by all But yet the one that receives it shall be scorned [Verse 1] The game has been bitter to me back from the start Yo, it broke my heart but I never gave up The fact that I’m a female didn’t help me either The whispers, the gossips, on how I made the cover I must take some time just to thank that man For believing when no-one took time to even see it At least a couple of kats in SA got to feel me That’s excluding some kats in Cap City who’s still beefing Rap a certain way, then I’m too hardcore I rap a certain way, then I sound like porn I rap about the streets, and still I get scorned Should I sound wack and just rap some poems? I’m starting to think that if I had a penis I would make it Or if I was ugly enough, no guy would even date me Or if I was in with the conscious clique Or just stay underground and let the main make it Then I’ll be it, y’all [Interlude] Always trade with caution You never know what enemies are lurking In your sleep, and in your waking Always look behind you Or the knives will find you [Verse 2] Somebody said Hip Hop is like basketball It’s cute when girls go but it’s the men that score So what? They insult y’all and y’all applaud? Giving credits to fake rappers who sound like boys They don’t like Supa ‘cause she wore her skirt short I wore it just to show that I can fuck with them boys They think it literally but in a figurative way ‘Cause when I get on any beat I plan to fuck up their day Yes it’s the sexual connotation like no-one does it? My haters will just say “it’s lack of skill” I guess it’s habit Ok sue me if I tend to rap about dicks Or since it’s a male sport you can just rap about tits Expose our bodies in your videos while shaking our hips Maybe I should stop rappin, be a video chick Continue dressing the same way that I do when on stage Say nothing, just smile, date a rapper one day Then I’d be it, y’all [Interlude] A friendly smile can easily be a disguise If you look inside a person’s eyes You might get hypnotized And there begins your demise [Verse 3] I’d like to thank the game at the end of the day It taught me more about life than life could in one day I learned that the media’s controlling our brains And when a DJ says you’re it, then you’re it! (Okay) There’s a twisted side to the coin ‘Cause if they don’t feel you and if you catch them at the wrong time They just won’t play you And its all about who you know that will get you known And if you don’t know nobody just leave and go home The love that MC's talk about is always saved for themselves God for us all And every man better watch for himself You can’t have real friends Or have a real conversation All you’ll get is ass kissing and a couple of kats flossun Bumpin’ their heads to songs but they don’t really listen Hoping that you do the same when they’re on stage performing So I must just learn to be fake and befriend a DJ Have some toilet paper handy Soon my song will be played Then I’ll be it, y’all [Outro] This game here called ‘Hip Hop’ The streets The MC’s that roam in it can be rather evil Success is wanted by all But yet the one that receives it shall be scorned
