The ILLZ - Think and Grow lyrics

[Verse 1] What happened to the rap game It turned into the crack game Got rappers that's screaming k** Regardless if they are ill Sex, d** and doller bills It got to a point Where if you don't stand on the corner Repping like you're a soldier Then forget it, its over Everyday you're hearing the same script I'm tucking the 4-5th I'm running the whole strip I hustle and I pitch That ye like oh sh** And I will never quit You wanna stunt then fuk it I'll let the gat applaud You already know I pack the four I love when cats say don't confuse for me a rapper Then why the f** you rapping for? I'm getting tired of listening to they're nonsense This sh** is so constant But nowadays its change we're taking over this rap sh** Creativity is back Taking away the power from all these lame cats That only talk about d** and gats And its over [Excerpt 1 from "Behind the Music" Documentary] [Verse 2] The game is f**ed up we're living now in a time If you don't commit a crime Then f** it you shouldn't rhyme If you ain't a thug or a hustla Then f** ya They throw dirt on ya And gun buck ya I asked my old school dude from the other side of town Tell me where has the game gone He tells me dunn all this trap sh**, moving packs sh** Hustle hard everything is the same song Let change come Real rap is taking over again Promise me this sh** is over for dem Its over Finger to the trigger Hand to the sky And wave goodbye to this sh** Cause this rap games over And I'll make sure it never comes back [Excerpt 2 from "Behind the Music" Documentary] [Verse 3] Do you hear what I'm telling you…echo They said this moment it would never come true But now this rap game it is over So say farewell And goodbye And good try Trying to make us fail No more lies You're inside The coffin Heres the nails Die faster We're done with you basterds Fake gangsta rappers uh! I mean damn why can't dudes be creative When did the game turn automated? When did we get unmotivated How did we let it all get so faded Why did we feel intimidated To go right in and change it Lets elevate it I look at dudes that made it And realize that most are overrated Can't we just make it all shine just a little Bring back the art of real rhyme for a little Murder the evil snakes and vultures That tried to k** our culture Like we're supposed ta Bring a new era closer Go ahead throw a rose up Just for closure Cuz now this rap game is over Over over ova
