Ultimately, martial art means honestly expressing yourself... it is easy for me to put on a show and be cocky, or I could show you some really fancy movement... But to express oneself honestly, not lying to oneself, and to express myslef honestly... Now that, my friend is very hard to do. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives And for that live moment we thrive Awakenings, as we make the dead come alive Rise and walk my son Come into the light Inside the dark we illuminate mics Give knowledge to mediocre The will to neanderthal Filter to the the small Digital to analog We steady advancin' Rhyme enhancin' Civil minds can't keep up with this
Senim Silla:
Dig - I'ma put it on the table I ain't a thug nigga and playa, I ain't playful I'm just Senim Silla, man without label Standin' on my own to you tryin' to stay stable Speakin' what I know to only what I'm able I ain't the kinda guy who carry on for dough The material cat who walk around for show I'm just your everyday, merry way joe on the go While others go with the flow I ain't never been the one to follow trend, I do my own bit Can't keep up with the joneses, I'm on my own sh*t I don't care what you drink What you stress, how you dress, or where you got the link I ain't impressed These lames run around like mice in a maze Tryin' to get up on cheese, its just a rat race Wanna change times' schemes to make man worship things Over the supreme being, or stop, fill up? Should I join the hypocrites? Or side with the suckas by choice It makes no difference that y'all product of environment It's just coincidence The world's a violent place baby, there ain't no more innocence Or civil men or penatence, just Ignorance cast on the right from wrong They mimic sh*t they see on TV or hear in a song What that tell you they on? A sucka act up every minute The righteous live on but the the niggas are infinite

I ain't hardcore, I don't pack a 9 millimeter Most of y'all gangster rappers ain't hardcore neither Whoever get mad then I'm talkin 'bout you Claim you fear no man but never walk without crew Where I'm from, your reputation don't mean jack So what you pack gats and you sell fiend's crack You ain't big time, my man You ain't no different from the next cat in my neigberhood who did time Rhyme after rhyme it's the same topic What make you think you hardcore cuz you was raised in the projects Broke ass finally got a hundred in your pocket Now you on the mic spittin' money's no object What you say is bullcrap If you wasn't with your crew and wasn't drunk off the brew Would you still pull gats? You need to stop frontin' Or you're headed for self destruction Yeah, today's topic is self-destruction I ain't talkin 'bout the KRS-One discussion I'm talkin 'bout the one too many ignorant suckas Lyin' on the mic to my sistas and brothas Everytime you listen to the radio, all you hear is nonsense They never play the bomb sh*t Everything that glitters ain't gold And every gold record don't glitter that's for damn sure (scratching break) (discussion)

How many cats you know speak the illegit rhyme after rhyme diligent? 85 percent represent ignorant Either you innocent or guilty Some of my favorite emcees fell off It damn near killed me Lookin' at the kids that was true hip-hop Nowadays them cats don't even do hip-hop Rap got 'em brainwashed with cats that don't last And five minutes of fame That's when it's a shame Seein real emcees tryin' to imitate rappers If you ask me they goin' out ass backwards Tradin' in respect to push a fat Lex Puff rhymin' on the remix, what's next? It hurts so bad I wanna smack 'em My favorite crew members break up turn around and join wack ones This is dedicated to you hip-hop hypocrites Drivin wack songs like you don't give a sh*t I ain't got nothin' against nobody tryin' to make a decent living It ain't the money that's the issue Only if that's the reason why these cats are makin' decent music That's when I got beef with you And I'ma break it you like never Go ahead, call me player hater if it make you feel better Try to jump my crew if you cats feel foggy You need to wake up and smell the damn coffee
