Apollo Bebop - Where'd It Go? lyrics

We used to cherish all the greatness/ We used to love ours creatives/ We used to praise innovators/ And get wowed by entertainers/ We used to push ourselves and our limits/ We done fell and got stitches/ Went through hell but yo listen/ We done came back and took no sh** from no gimmicks/ I put my soul in this and wish for more minutes/ To spit this sh** that's slick as Rick I'm rich/ But no figures can sink or slow this ship/ No matter whoever my opponent is. I'm known for this/ But now they telling me to go slow/ I'm too smart too fast. That's a a no-no?/ So now I'm looking around and I ask where'd it go?/ Cuz the bar is so damn low/ Whatever happened to the fire and the pa**ion?/ Whatever happened to inspiring the ma**es?/ Cuz I feel like I'm only getting a fraction/ I can't even see no more, no/ I can't even see it no more/ Makes me believe that the bar is the floor/ And now I'm having to ask where'd it go/ I get scared for the state of the music it's all for amusement/ The opposite of smart it is stupid/ No song moves me they are useless/ It's like we are courage and the entertainment bizz is Eustace/ And I'm just trying to give my two cents/ Cuz hardly any artist has anything to do with/ Future human improvement. It's only pollution/ And I'm looking around like who's got the solution/ Cuz these kids are too faded and too jaded/ Only care about you if you famous/ Only care about the image that you making/ Then they rep it likes its there's like "It's cool ain't it?"/ It's all about the branding endorsements/ Instead your message nah that's not important/ So I'm looking around and I'm having to ask where'd it go/ Cuz the bar is so damn low/ Whatever happened to the fire and the pa**ion?/ Whatever happened to inspiring the ma**es?/ Cuz I feel like I'm only getting a fraction/
