Yo caller go head

What the hell
Alright
Let's bring in another caller in
Caller your on-air go head

What up Gustavo
This Valents
Check me out

For all those who wanna profile and pose
Rock you in ya face, stab ya brain
With your nose bone
Why they still alive, why they still alive
Why they still alive, I don't know go figure

The Pioneers Era, it was early 80s
Golden Age mid 80's man those times was crazy
Gangsta Era, late 80's Afrocentric
Mid 90's, The Second Golden Age
Came real quick
2000 and beyond was the biggest threat
End of the Platinum Era, birth of the internet
Exit the forefathers, Line 3
We have a new caller
"I'm number one on streaming charts, man I'm a rap scholar"
Well suicide ya whole career, do it for the honor
Like the way of samurais
That disrespect the collar
I'ma cut ya cloth out the cultures fabric
Like a tartan, who's rhyme patterns
No longer classic
Sick to my stomach, y'all making me gastric
Y'all takin a shit
on the legacy of Mr. Magic
Chuck Chillout, Red Alert, Doo Wop, Flash,
This ain't a test, it's an emergency broadcast

For all those who wanna profile and pose
Rock you in ya face, stab ya brain
With your nose bone
Why they still alive, why they still alive
Why they still alive, I don't know go figure

Some argue the early two thousands
Was in fact the golden times
Boundaries broke, radio had no regional lines
Hot 97, didn't sound east coast at all
The New York State of Mind
Was deep fried in Southern drawl
But props to the South they walked it out, when we had crawl
From the window to wall, let's take another call
"The stations lights is on, but no one is home"
"Dial where hip hop lived, (laughing) you'll get a dial tone"
I know it's the future but let's take it back
Back to the days, before listening dead rap
The scriptures of lllmatic, Ready To Die, It Takes A Nation
I mean some y'all nice I'm saying this outta frustration
Enter the 36, Paid in full, Only Built, The Chronic
Compared to those works of art, ya'll sound demonic
The Industries 28 days, the rage has blown
Nowadays it's dawn of the dead
DJ's hang up ya phone

For all those who wanna profile and pose
Rock you in ya face, stab ya brain,
With your nose bone
Why they still alive, why they still alive
Why they still alive, I don't know go figure

Ok one last call, after that no more requests
"Thanks this track did it best, to finally lay us back to rest"
Time to force feed listeners like they suffer from bulimia
Lack of air made god mc's sick, like sickle cell anemia
Since the current era popped up
Purists want them chopped up
Screwed up and chewed
Out spit like bad food
Lyrical dudes in the mood
Feeling crude lookin schizo
They wanna leave em speechless,
Like slaves on calypso
Serpent and the rainbow
Bury y'all dead with beats and rhymes alive though
Bunch of zombies, ya'll listening dead
Headphones is dead zones, they
Lack oxygen to the head
They moaning & groaning
Ain't talking trees but ya'll need a Stoning
Vultures vs. 47 rhyme ronin
The Listening Dead Era, has it came to be
That's right ya'll half dead
You can't even hear me
