Testo Same Old Thang - Sway & King Tech
Testo della canzone Same Old Thang (Sway & King Tech), tratta dall'album Concrete Jungle
Yo Sway, it's the last song
We gon' make it slow and funky
Stuck in a war, I see rappers at a standstill
And I'm waiting for something new to unveil
Itself, but until this happens
I see no progress in rapping
It's copycat mentality, no originality
When you aim for fame you can't possibly stand out
You're a stand-in, a substitute
An imitator is a mindless fluke
With a lackadaisy DJ in a studio mind
A wacky lazy rapper with commercial rhymes
Stagnated, nothing new created
Repeats the past beats that's outdated
From beginning to end the record spins
And from record to record I'm hearing a trend
The cycle's the same in this game
I keep hearing (same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
Listen to the music we bring
Overall, it ain't the same old thing
Tell me another rapper that can flow swift with the piano keys
Like Sway? Please
I understand how you suffer, all the agony
All the time you spend writing and can't sound unique
'Cause you wanna be different but it just won't happen
'Cause your skills are defective and your talent is lacking
When I come off, there's no mistaking the poet
The moment I speak, it's Sway and you know it
Over and over I'm tickled to the bone
A new rapper comes out, a brand new clone
So, I let it blow and try the video
Video one looks like two, three, and four
The cycle remains the same in this game
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
(Same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
Take note to this speech 'cause I'm bound to unleash
Nothing short of a masterpiece
Understand, to be better than the next man
You gotta come up with your own master plan
I'm tired of the biting finger cramps from rewriting
My songs that I fired up, I'm getting tired of
Hearing my ideas on someone else's solo record
Though I spoke of them in secret, documented in treasure still
Just like a morsel that I know they will bite off
The street poetry master, that's right, so wipe off
That look of guilt, a personal conviction
Like I wrote this just for you to wipe you out of your existence
Now I'm looking over competition's stats, a fact
The wack could never compare to that
Good old taste of hip-hop, yeah, something original
Nothing is plastic, sounds ain't digital
This is for the old school, 'cause it's the same rules
Style separates you from the next fool
The fact of the matter remains the same
How long will I hear the (same old thing)
(Same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
I'm still hearing (same old thing)
