Intro
Joe
Conscious …
Beacon of
light …
Yeah …
Verse
Music to me
Has lost its
appeal
Developing a
real
Commercial
feel
No depth
emotion or soul
Without
heart it’s pretty pitiful and cold
Is it weird
I fear
Nobody out
there’s spitting conscious rhymes
Perhaps it’s
a sign of the times
Everybody’s
cautious and quiet
Too afraid
to speak up rebel or riot
Manage a way
to stay ignorant and passive
Lazily
unseasoned when it comes to being proactive
Another sell
out slob on the couch
A pessimist
like Oscar the Grouch
Quite a bit
arrogant and pompous
A posh twot
snot that’s snobbish
Toxic
obnoxious and crass
Just another
pain the ass
Smug and
narcissistic by nature
A rude
sarcastic instigator
Congrats
having mastered the craft
How to
belittle and sass
You make
people laugh by tearing others down
Me I’d
rather speak intellectually, essentially, potentially
maybe even
be crowned profound
Chorus
Can’t fathom
or imagine the pain
I’m saddened
by what’s happened to the rap game
There used
to be much more meaning and feeling
People
understood there’s value in bleeding
We need to
learn to deal with conflict and strife
It’s
especially very necessary in life
To help
teach the difference between wrong and right
Music exists
to assist fight the darkness of night
And
hopefully be a beacon of light
Verse
How do I
inspire the entire mass collective
To be less
sensitive and more aggressive
Listen for
lyrical content that’s impressive
Not
derogatory stories with whorey sexually suggestive messages
Everybody
already knows
You love
money, drugs, bitches and hoes
Your
attempt’s pitifully pathetic
With no
viable competitive rhetoric
Nor
knowledge of a college level limerick
I see past
your plan, scam, sham or gimmick
Duping and
deceiving people into believing
Your false
ideology and illogical reasoning
Why can’t
you just be a decent human being
Eventually
the truth will come out
When you
cast doubt words lose clout
And
inevitably your negativity
Will
definitely ruin your legacy
Chorus
Can’t fathom
or imagine the pain
I’m saddened
by what’s happened to the rap game
There used
to be much more meaning and feeling
People
understood there’s value in bleeding
We need to
learn to deal with conflict and strife
It’s
especially very necessary in life
To help
teach the difference between wrong and right
Music exists
to assist fight the darkness of night
And
hopefully be a beacon of light
Verse
Forgotten
and neglected
My biggest
fear’s being rejected
It seems no
matter what
Music is the
one thing I got
Helps to
heal the pain and rain
Keeping me
from going insane
Adds layers
of armor for protection
We have an
undeniably deep connection
When I got
nobody to talk to
It gives me
the power to crawl or haul through
Hurdle all
obstacles
A ring
leader of the unstoppables
Music is a
major part
The blood
feeding my beating heart
It’s why im
alive
Got to be
logically how I’ve survived
Chorus
(And you) Can’t
fathom or imagine the pain
I’m saddened
by what’s happened to the rap game
There used
to be much more meaning and feeling
People
understood there’s value in bleeding
We need to
learn to deal with conflict and strife
It’s
especially very necessary in life
To help
teach the difference between wrong and right
Music exists
to assist fight the darkness of night
And
hopefully be a beacon of light
A beacon of
light …
A beacon of
light …
A beacon of
light …
Joe
Conscious
