The Anthem Of An Underdog Lyrics by SC Static & Zoo

The Lion & The Wolf

2013

The Anthem Of An Underdog
(Zoo’s Verse)
I write for me and I write for you
For black clouds when skies are blue
For anyone who ever knew somebody who died before their time
Or somebody who’s stuck in a life of crime
For deadbeat dads and single moms
For young kids who have lost limbs due to pilots dropping bombs
For broken hearts and broken homes
For the 12-year-old kid in Chicago who feels the need to pack chrome
I write for addicts everywhere, high and low
Whether you’re shooting dope, popping pills, or doing lines of blow
You gotta know this ain’t a fairytale it’s a nightmare
I’m here to remind you that life don’t fight fare
If you don’t stand up for yourself you’ll get kicked while you’re down
Doesn’t matter if you’re from the inner city or a small town
I went from Manhattan, Philly, to Cali and my demons still chase me up streets and down allies
I write for musicians who play for pennies in the subway
For the anorexic girl who dreams of walking the runway
One day, someday or maybe not
Cause ninety percent of them burn out with booze and pot
So what are you gonna do to set yourself outside of the crowd
Don’t get into drugs, do good in school, make your parents proud
I really wish I took my own advice because if I did
Talented addict would be the description of a different kid
(Static’s Verse)
I write for you and I write for me
I write for the uncertainty of this path I chose in this life I lead
I write to motivate, I write to dream
I write to optimize the minds of the hopeless and the frightened fiends
I write for wine and I write for weed
I write for blind that would like to see, shine as a righteous queen
I write for crime and I write for peace
I write for time and its sudden leaps, flies by in just a blink
I write to satisfy, I write to please
I write to manage my obsessive needs, channel my deceptive greed
I write to analyze, I write to deem
I write to strategize these mic extremes, patternize the tightest schemes
I write for confidence and self-esteem
I write for dominance and also the opposite of the next extreme
I write to rise and I write to sink
I write to climb to the highest brink, fly through the sky and think
I write for strong and I write for weak
I write for wrong, right, good, or bad and everything that’s in between
I write for sights and I write for scenes
I write for cluttered trees blowing colored leaves in the summer breeze
I write for scenery that’s truly exquisite
I write for cloudless nights with stars and moons in the distance
I write for honest eyes, inner beauty and vision
I write to show these troubled kids it’s cool to be different
I write for those trapped inside the highest environment
That want to escape but can’t revive the fire to get out of it
I write for recovered addicts with desires to try again
And hope my words can reach inside their minds and inspire them
I write to not be worthless, I write to jot some verses
I write to win the fight against these psychopathic urges
I write for classic albums that I might go back to purchase
I write to have an impact, I write to have a purpose
I write to seek attention, I write to teach a lesson
I write to alleviate and relieve myself of stressing
I write to feed the engine, I write to seek perception
I write to deviate between what’s right and what’s deception
I write to be respected, I fight to be contended
I like to keep you guessing when this mic’s in my possession
I write to form memories, I write to be a legend
I write for longevity, I write to be remembered
