The Reason

[Produced by Statik Selektah] [Intro] There are do's and don'ts It's confusing man [Verse 1] I used to rhyme complex flows rapidly fire Then they told me simplify it so the people would buy it I thought about all the kids I admired The Rakims, Big Daddy Kane's, why they ain't remain in the game They shouldn't have never changed They should have kept it the same They let the music industry play tricks on they brain, dang If I remember correct When Ra rock with Jody Watley he lost some respect In the beginning it's like they was telling us how to do shit Then they start thinking about trying to sell a unit Industry rule number four thousand and eighty Record company people are lazy They try to say the way the king gon last Is if I come out with a ringtone smash Tell' em kiss my ass I got nothing but hit records in the stash The game I don't respect it, it's trash Give it a epitaph [Chorus: Sample] Here we are looking for a reason You to lay me down What you do, I can never love no other You’re the best I ever had [Verse 2] I'm every lyricist bitterness I'm the shit he wanna say but won't Cuz he don't realize how real his own niggas is Is they live or bitter men Genuine or just frivolous See numbers pass the book of Leviticus And get this it'll take you a thousand christmas's Just to begin to dismiss the men Crackers is crazy on top of that they hypocrites I sell you my life in snippets Don't flip it or get it twisted I married the chronic but my mistress is biscuits You rappers cannot compute math like mine Yo ass will sit and write rhymes for nine and a half lifetimes I'm genetically better than you Like ebony versus the man with leprosy Get dressed for a date with your destiny Ya'll grab the mics then try and rip it With the supply some scientific Ya'll should quit not because I insisted Niggas tired of fiction Nigga fuck how many cars you got Tell us about your sister Mya's addiction We might listen [Chorus] [Outro] Yeah!
