Bring Rawkus Back Lyrics by Pizon

Mic Scholar

2024

[Intro: Pizon]
Mos Def, Kweli
Pharoahe, Big L, early Em
Kool G Rap and even The Kid Pi (Rawkus Records)

[Hook: Pizon]
Bring Rawkus back
Bring Rawkus back
Bring Rawkus back
It's time we bring...

[Verse 1: Pizon]
Rawkus meant death to the shiny suit era
Made major label reps sweat and try to do better
It started out with funding from James Murdoch
The son of Rupert, but I ain't got stocks in Fox
The mainstream's underground, a scenic view
From that sweet spot that lived right between the two
When Jigga jumped on Just to Get By
Lyor Cohen told him you must have been high
Def Jam sent a cease and desist
And within weeks that song didn't even exist
But its producer believed he needed to spit
Had some gas on him, but Rawkus Records passed on him
Was he unpolished or was that a cop out?
Was he in college or was he a drop out?
Either way he would lead the way to bridge the gap
And music would not be the same after that

[Hook: Pizon]
Bring Rawkus back
Bring Rawkus back
Bring Rawkus back
Bring Rawkus back

[Interlude: Pizon]
Following these events there ceased to be a difference between mainstream and underground rap
It was all one in the same
The influence of MTV and radio waned
And even casual fans began turning to the Internet
Seizing this opportunity, Rawkus signed a new wave of emcees
To release their music digitally
And I'm proud to forever be part of that history
Rawkus Records

[Verse 2: Kool G Rap]
Yo, Pi, it ain't over
Let's bring it back to the essence

Fuck this world, niggas selling dreams
So a fellow lean the way of the Elohim of Elohims
Cerebellums blown to smithereens, it was hell in Queens
Phantom of the Opera, it was not the Cinderella theme
Read Deuteronomy and he got hella keen
Got the DNA of King David dwelling in my genes
1 Maccabees 3:48
Job 24 showed them how they covered up the face
Prophecy wrote of pillars of smoke
Now it's volcanoes, sinkholes, rivers on roads
Son going blacker than sackcloth, we about to reign forever
Fuck his cock, we sons of the King of Terror
Verses the 2 Esdras, never could have said it better
Bodies of water, Blood River, the deadliest weather
Old Test, New Test, Enoch and Apocrypha
Jubilees, Jasher, books that wasn't popular
Wisdom of Solomon, time to get the knowledge in
Right in the city where these niggas blowing hollows in
