Hip hop is art
dont make a f*cking pop hit, be smart
take it back to the start
like KRS and rakim use passion and heart

Dont get me wrong, im not dissing dizzee rascal
Im just using his beat as a single example
it was the first big hit of its kind in the pop charts
all that last shit with profit in mind, not heart

Channel U's full of UK sound and ringtone, think they should all have p45s to bring home
prancing about like they're the next big thing cos their cousins got an 8 track and their mate daryll can sing

these kids getting above their stations and saying, there a vessel through which a higher power's conveying
"my lyrical content is a miracle, godsent"
my name is scroobius pip and i say f*ck all that nonsense

their lyrical prognosis is like spirital osmosis in that everything they say evaporates into boasts, its a joke
ive listened and i cant even find one quote which is worth using as a reference or even as a footnote

yeah, most of these kids could get their guns out and kill me, but how many have the skill to inspire and thrill me?
I've got a holster i keep biscuits in it, it works into your brain leaving big fat blisters in it.

who am i better than, im better than i used to be, im gonna keep on getting better so you better just get used to me

if you think thats a cop out then hear my point truthfully cos chances are deep down this is how you used to be

if you aim is to be as good as scroobius pip, once you finally achieved it then your standards will slip

but if your goal is only to improve on yourself then the quest is never over no matter how big your wealth.

Hip hop is art
dont make a f*cking pop hit, be smart
take it back to the start
