I Flipped What Dilla Flipped

I was in the basement
You was in front of somebody’s television station
I call it complacent, you say I’m overstating
The fact that it’ll take 10k hours to greatness
Y’all can debate it, all of y’all can just hate it
All in all it doesn’t really matter ‘cause dammit I made it
This is how we beat [?] and proved our reality
Where people be hustling, guns bust in a alley
We be ducking the crooked cops who look at my pigment
You grew up in the hood and watch, you know what a pig meant so
I’m in the booth avoiding the strays
Watching the news, dudes murdered a boy today
His mama crying to the cameras, got me feeling sad and it’s
The reason people wanna leave and take a trip with cannabis
Local politicians are scandalous panhandlers
Amateurs put on the pedestal to managers
Analysts, they be some petty fools and scavengers
Tryna psychoanalyze what is happening
To intellectualize our demise
Without ‘em I surmise we get the power to rise, open your eyes
