Conscious Rapper Lyrics - Artist : Rucka Rucka Ali
When I started making joke records back in '06
I never thought I'd ever be one of the last lyricists Categorized with the guys of a genre I don't get 'Cause I rap in English and convey concepts All these mumble rappers indicate our culture is a void But the nihilism came from the era just before them Conscious rappers real woke with a played-out message Just the stalest of the crumbs dropped down by their professors You're a house boy doing what you're told, you ain't a rebel Just a well behaved slave, Stockholm sentimental Talking 'bout you miss you miss your childhood and place you grew up, I don't I couldn't wait to grow up and get out of the cult You say you're sick of the corruption, giving your support To whatever thief is promising to break you off a cut Of the pie that he stole from the innocent and virtuous Virtuous productive men of genius fucked And devoured by the cannibals, hated for their good Ripped apart and resented, we're rational animals At war with reality, shutting off our faculties Organized into mobs, individuality Trade for the pressure group, I find it funny All these real woke folks saying "Follow the Money" You're a Marxist mark, all you see is transactions Economic groups, intersectional factions You chose this, traded gold for government fiat Fuck following the money, bitch follow the ideas Anti-capitalist sentiments is hatred of the selfish Which is hatred of the independent thought Which is itself a rejection of reason, which is hatred of existence And these neurotic cowards run the ivory tower Young minds being poisoned by lifeless professors Persecuted Jewish bankers that have joined their oppressors Demonizing financiers that keep us all alive Hatred of finance and usury is hatred of the mind Long-term plans, concepts of reality We nail 'em to a cross so we could regulate the industry And have a lobby system marry government to business You wonder why businessmen profit off of prisons Without reason there's just feelings and the group So you crowd around a demagogue to rally up the troops And he tells you you're a victim and you feel that it's the truth And you wanna ask a question but you're feeling too confused To know what actually is missing from the picture You strengthen your conviction that someone at the top's oppressing you But the ones who really robbed you are college intellectuals Who turned you to a vegetable at war with the conceptual It's all psychological extortion Ever since Kant equated observation with distortion Ever since Hume cut identity from objects Now you can't project any cause and effect You're following the same route as the other clones Marching forward through history, forgotten and alone Ignoring oceans of blood, mountains of bones Altruism speaks, who are you to know? So you do the one selfish thing you still conceive to do You cut a rap record 'bout what you believe And you pretend it's for the cause, for the ones that need your help But if they deserve your wealth why can't you live for yourself? Blank out, you feel guilty putting money in the bank But your record sales are killing it, suburban kids are feeling this Popping their prescriptions, swallowing your rhetoric Big pharma got shit on what you're selling kids Blue pill placebo, stupid and cheap stuff That works with the mindset they learned up in school Discombobulated thoughts, narratives and polemics Over tunes that appeal to both emos and cool kids You're a boot-licking Dark Age apologist Get the hell off the stage, boy read The Fountainhead Let the art be your guide to a Renaissance Integrate your own mind with the sciences Or go ahead and talk shit, leave your little comment 'Cause you making fun of Ayn's like a cockroach laughing at a giant And on the people rituate Manipulated by the Comprachicos of the mind That divided into camps with superficial differences Fighting for the life of a fetus only till it individuates Or for the rights of a man till it clashes with the will or the visions of a leader The collective wants to situate, your only barbiturate Is watching a debate between snakes in a race Who the fastest could capitulate, these are not smart people You think they're privy to info but they all need you to feed them You you're the one filling up these empty vessels Conservatives argue with liberals argue with socialists argue with communists Never getting down to the principles under the politics Never the fundamentals under the postulates Paternal cousins posing as opposites United they stand, together we fall The bed has been made, we're all fascist now You wanted a purpose, an escape from neurosis Surrender your thoughts, you'll be told that you're chosen United they stand, together we fall The road has been paved, we're all fascist now Under God, here comes the new Dark Age Might as well be passed out and dazed when it comes |
