DJ Premier - Fat Lip lyrics

[Intro] (Pulp Fiction) "You ever seen that show Cops? Well I was watching it one Time & there was this, this cop on, he was talking about, about This, this gunfight he had in the hallway with this guy, right? & He just unloaded on this guy." [Verse: Kyle Travis] If I've got a mic, then I promise I've got a chance If a rapper thinks he's got the juice, then I would tie his hands And maybe Chance the Rapper. But really where's all the danger In a world where metaphors have practically become a stranger To these so called rappers. Soap operas in action I just roll on past & hope I gather no reaction That attention that I seek is not from people who don't know the roots I've spent that attention they switching sides just like a Rubik's Cube They looking around. I cannot imagine what I would be like If I couldn't write. I'd probably be saddened or playing madden with some catnip Rocking out to some Fat-lip, instead of bumping Illmatic In fact, I'd probably be respected, but where is the fun in that? I'd rather be underestimated than overestimated A candidate in the game, that if you win they've gotta face it So face up. I run it, so lace up The boy as cold as ISIS, other words I blow the place up. I'm ate up We in the same game, but I'm eight up, your fade s**s I'm rolling clean, the dopest without a fiend While I pick my lyric pieces your lyrics they just get picked to pieces You roll the paper but the part you do not see Is that I picked the thesis. Hard to admit it like it's got a problem I'm rockin' I got em' like Dr. Dre, they Charlamagne Asking blunt questions, I dump elegance spit relevance With heaven sent incentives, sticking with that fourth element I had to make this so they know just what my motive is I will not attack unless I'm provoked, then it's over with Yeah. Now tell me who do you know That drops a bomb like this on tapes you got a problem with [Outro] (Pulp Fiction) "Marvin, what do you make of all this?" "Man, I don't even Have an opinion." "Well you've got to have an opinion! I mean do you think God came down from heaven & stop-" *gunshot*
