Frodo - Deep lyrics
[Verse 1: King Ed] I'm still tryna imagine the world Being a better place Where grown men can go on a quest To truly discover who they are Somebody told me way back That I'm a poet surrounded by rappers And someoje told me I'm a rapper tryna be a poet But then again what's the real definition of hip hop Cause what some of you are singing is actually pop Tell me if 2Pac Was alive today do you think he'd be like Tehn Diamond or Schingy But then again I'm just an underground rapper with vocal cords that don't work Tryna comfort myself hopefully oneday I'll be respected I really gotta ask a quick question Do you think abortion is the answer? Back in high school everybody thought I was destined to be a pastor Now I'm just a crazy bustard Who loves sleep more than listening To fake rappers who claim that they're legit Plus singing along to your song doesn't mean I really likenit Why Am I doing this to myself? Why not just go with the flow like everyone else? It's not about the rhymes or fancy wordplay Take your cds to the radio why delay good music You got a bright future ahead But if you're an underground rapper don't look at the number of people who like you that speculation will pa** through you like a bullet To be honest I think I gotta go with the flow Cause you're being a lil slow I gave you time to catch up but you got lost in your own philosophies You're feeding lies To these kids that you truly despise They're tryna echange freedom for fame We want the likes I wish everyone knew my name Rhyming words don't mean you're making sense But that's exactly what you want Why is our music shifting from being African to being American huh? But then again why apologise When you can just vandalise My property so I can realise That you're angry It's kind of scary and funny that I'm just a misunderstood poet with a rhyme that's trying to get out and reach out to the whole world 23:50 that's when I dropped the magic pen 10 minutes before midnight 10 minutes before a new day With new experiences and more petty issues Like why didn't you text me? Why didn't you call me? Ei bruh you know I'm your hommie Why not do this and that for a young black man with a vision I got a lot of hommies that love the inspiration in my words My songs are based on true events So many thoughts in my head you really have to wait for the next episode It's more complex than his majesty's royal code Maybe if I record you'll understand This won't get anywhere My heart is filled with despair I can't share the details Cause I don't think you care I'm just an underground rapper I'll never stop until I drop th magic cup and die Why do this to myself I think I'm going crazy You need to understand that I can't stop I'm stuck in a frenzy Still day dreaming about fame I brought life to this game This is my style a different type of rebellion Just because of your religion You can't really express your thoughts But I gotta stick to my poker dots Until you finally no....tice this is greatness in the making I'll keep giving you complex clues To a treasure that doesn't exist Rap plus King Ed is like beauty and the beast Thou Art is wonderful What did they say to King Ed? Thou art made the wolves wake up Thou art made the siants realise that they were wasting time Thou art made us realise that stupidity is a crime Thou art isolated us Thou art made us feel like kings and queens superior beings in a land full of inferior things 23:50 a time of thought 23:50 a time of hope It's more than gangster rap its a revolutionary awareness programme For the ma**es by the ma**es
