[Verse 1: Papoose] I lost respect for a lot of my favorite rappers Cause I realized they was just a bunch of actors This ain’t to shed light this ain’t a dark song This about the craft I’m speaking about the art form I ain’t care if they had money or they had ice I was truly a fan of them ni**as cause they was nice But now I see them dick riding other rappers for notoriety Whatever happened to the Dead Poet’s Society They be praising these artists for things that’s material What about reigning supreme, being imperial? You don’t respect an artist you know has talent Stays true to the culture remains silent and valid But you respect the artist cause you think he got cabbage And you ain’t even get to see his account balance Un-fu*king-believable how childish You should be ashamed of yourself embarrassed [Hook: Papoose] I’m taking you out of my top 5 (why?) Cause I now discovered that you not live (damn) I’m taking you out of my top 5 (why?) If I don’t respect you then I don’t salute you that’s my vibe I’m taking you out of my top 5 (why?) Cause I now discovered that you not live (damn) I’m taking you out of my top 5 (why?) If I don’t respect you then I don’t salute you that’s my vibe
