Disruptive Technology (feat. Lil Flower Nasti)
They call it disruptive
Technology, fancy name
For white-collar robbery
Check out the psych in the psychology
Silicon Valley digital Odyssey
Parasite to host on the coast
Once called Barbary
So many on the street
Lost in poverty
In a city of smash and grab Apps
Where housing's at capacity, I
Represent Kerouac and Cassidy
Live on peanuts, dine on Ramen
A tech kid makin' seven figures
Ain't uncommon
I'm an artist, Tutankhamun
Preserving the culture their embalmin'
Nowadays its feast or famine
Suicides jumpin off the bridge
Like salmon off the falls
Empathy ain't for sale at the Westfield mall
I steal from Peter to pay Paul, desperate people
Shoplifting in a bathroom stall
Go to jail, can't make bail
Run amuck in the socialism
For the rich free-for-all
Livin' in the street in tents
Working people payin' outrageous rent
The gap between rich and poor is immense
And every day the shit gets more intense
Homeless livin' in the street in tents
Working people payin' outrageous rent
The gap between rich and poor is immense
And everyday the shit gets more intense
My cab was a cable car to the stars
In the wee hours, I used to pick up
After hours at the bars
We can't get those hours back
Even with a basketball dynasty, cigars, Red Orbach
This is not about victimhood and lack
About the time I came back from Cuba
The cab industry was through, Uber and Lyft
Hit like Rod Carew, or Wellington at Waterloo
I flow like water do, through this time-space flesh
And sinew rendezvous
Despite the pain, we gotta continue
Ain't no throwin in the towel
City Lights bookstore, Ginsberg's Howl
Nightmare of Moloch
My lyrics blow through sheetrock,
With the sheer shock of Jackson Pollock
My bars are gold bullion, my lyrics are
On a different echelon
Made in the image of Tony Bennett
And the benefit of every dislodged tenant
Livin' in the street in tents
Working people payin' outrageous rent
The gap between rich and poor is immense
And every day the shit gets more intense
Homeless livin' in the street in tents
Working people payin' outrageous rent
The gap between rich and poor is immense
And everyday the shit gets more intense
Technology, fancy name
For white-collar robbery
Check out the psych in the psychology
Silicon Valley digital Odyssey
