Inspired & Jaded (feat. Khao & DJ Idull)

Put it up
Hey
Put it up
For real
Put it up
For real
Ha ha ha
Lets go
I started with shell toes, the Adidas sneakers
My group A-Tack we would pack clubs in Milwaukee inspired by the group called the Schemers
We were young dreamers
Hip-hop evangelism to the non-believers
Planet Patrol Afrika Bambaataa and Soul
Sonic Force
Of course the course
Of hip-hop would force
The worlds jaws to drop
And it's not
A coincidence I've been here ever since
And since Prince was singing about when Doves Cry
I was on the front lines
Making sure Hip-Hop would never die
Now I sorta wish it did
Cuz it is a monstrosity
That's filled with so much animosity
And hypocrisy
Since we dropped Tennessee
I've been amazed at where I've been and what I've seen
I lived my childhood dreams of being seen on Mtv
And having an impact on hip hop
Omg look at me

It's a thin line between inspired and jaded
Both of them at times I've dated
It's so dysfunctional
Cuz both are related
So if you ask me now
I'm inspired and proud
If you ask me tomorrow
I'm retiring I'm out
I hate this
And I love this
It takes patience
To get above this life

I chose this I supposed
So it's supposed to go this slow
So it's bliss
Blissful as it gets, hey
Without total submission to ignorance yes
Bits of dirty ish and glitz
They got five star fans loving two star hits rich
Enough to get jealous fits
Wishing you got the slots the other dudes get
So I can pout my mouth or I can go out there and live
I chose to dream
Rhyme with AD
Sing some melodies that mean something to me
Regardless of the acceptance of the rap community
Cuz y'all was with me in the nineties
I was with me since birth still trying to find me
For what it's worth
I'm proud of myself
I'm still filled with good thirst

It's a thin line between inspired and jaded
Both of them at times I've dated
It's so dysfunctional
Cuz both are related
So if you ask me now
I'm inspired and proud
If you ask me tomorrow
I'm retiring I'm out
I hate this, hey
And I love this, hey
It takes patience, hey
To get above this
Life

Hip Hop yep
I wanna thank everybody for tuning into the new album
Thanks y'all
Thanks y'all
Thanks y'all
Thine eyes have seen the glory
I've been in five star hotels with hard wood flooring
Like I'm royalty
Made millions off of royalties
I've seen scenes in my life so incredible they deserve scoring
Castles in the hills of Ireland
Constant touring
Five out of seven continents
I'm gaining confidence
It's reassuring
And that was this year
I'm not recollecting the golden days
Yet we can't get a record deal they tell us to go away uh

There's a thin line between inspired and jaded
Both of them at times I've dated
It's so dysfunctional
Cuz both are related
So if you ask me now
I'm inspired and proud
If you ask me tomorrow
I'm retiring I'm out
I hate this, hey
And I love this, hey
It takes patience, hey
To get above this life
