Lyrics

The reason for the design of ageism in
Hip-hop is to control how far we can go
We need the people young and green so they're naive
So we can take you to the ringer
And then by the time when you wake up
And you wise enough to renegotiate
And start asking what's this, what's that
They wanna get rid of you
That's the only reason
Because every other art form
When it's not us, Johnny Cash can go forever (Ever)
You see what I'm saying?
Mick Jagger's still going
You name—Bob Dylan is still doing stuff
It is only in our music because they
Wanna call our music the hip-hop game
This is not a game
This is our art and this is our business
This came from the have-nots
This came from everything that they wanted to impress
Now they control it and try to tell you what's the truth
So we have to stay connected to what's true
We don't need them
Even when I signed back then
The labels were becoming a Titanic
It was already shifting
That's why they came up with Spot-a-lie
Shouts out to Spotify, but I spot a lie
And that system is not correct
And we have to keep calling these things out
That's why we're doing it direct to consumer
That's why it's only on our websites for Vindicated or mine
Www.thevisionformyproject.com
It's so important that we have ownership and we keep the identity
And we keep the connection and the information of this
Because remember how hip-hop started
You had to be down
You had to be down with a DJ or an MC or a B-boy
Somebody had to bring you around
Or **** was gon' be on your head like, "Who's this ****?"
You had to pay your dues to be in
Now just 'cause you get on the internet, you a part of hip-hop
No, ****, you had to pay your dues
You had to come in these cyphers and get locked up
You had to come around and really prove that you can be down
Now anybody can have participation
And everybody represents where from
The internet
I can't even tell where **** is from
They're from the internet
But where are you from really in your
Region or your location in your community?
So my thing is concentrating on that
And not what they want in them, in them, in them boardrooms
'Cause we keep forgetting what hip-hop was built for
And why we do this
