the golden calf 2010 - final outlaw lyrics
[verse 1]
i will kick you in the knees
break em’ and drag you halfway across the world from your sleeves
i’ll grab your girl by her weave
and swing her so hard the whiplash will leave her like christopher reeve
don’t introduce me to your niece
i’ll give her a teddy bear covered in fleas carrying disease
the final outlaw is a beast
whenever you finished another song
he’s completed a masterpiece
how good arе you at solving problems
what do whoopi goldberg and the mona lisa both sharе in common
you’ve got 5 minutes to solve it
before i dip you in a hot acid chemical dissolvent
i’ma problem
i’m the prime competition for the top 10
optimus prime has been listed for adoption
so you should sign him
don’t get it twisted in your mind we are not friends
we never were i spit nouns and verbs
you’re more concerned with wearing feathers and fur
you never deserved any credit you little herb
respect is something you earn
a lesson that can only be learned if you get close enough to get burned
it’s the criticism endured by all your friends and family until it’s finally your turn
so grab the microphone and k!ll it
make the people feel it
spit it like you believe in it or just turn around and leave it
f*ck fame
f*ck the industry
and f*ck you
you think you’re the sh*t but i’m here to flush you
[chorus]
cause you could feel it deep inside
everything you were told since 5 years old was a lie
they don’t care if you die
this is why i don’t feel ashamed
as i light me a match
this culture could burn in flames
y’all gonna know my name
and all i’ma do is laugh
as it turns into ash
the death of the golden calf
isn’t it sad
you’ve been following a lie
sucka
you’ve been worshipping a lie
[verse 2]
i compose like mozart
you decompose like old farts
don’t start about having a cold heart
and having more bars than the gold at fort knox
when you can barely afford to buy any more socks
your metaphors suck
any more of this petty undeveloped folklore and i’ma go nuts
you brag about a page in the source but so what
if you booked a show on your own
then no one would show up
that’s what happens
whenever you exaggerate a rapper
and fail to measure his character and talent
you end up with an unbalanced amateur standing in front of cameras
babbling in behalf of us
that’s embarrassing
its a travesty
its a tragedy
look up the golden calf and think of the vanity
i’ll expose you to everyone that you’re close to
i’ll dethrone you and tell the guards to dispose you
you don’t know anything about the sh*t i’ve gone through
plenty fish are biting but trying to buy my soul too
from liquor sponsors to fast*food commercials
bet even wanted me for a reality show too
but i ain’t wit’ dumbin’ it down
i don’t care if you think i’m earnest for turning it down
what are we learning when we’re earning like a cow
but turn around to see where we came from burning to the ground
keep talking cause it don’t matter anymore
you critics just didn’t know i was an activist before
i been rapping since i slept on a foam mattress on the floor
poor like using nails as coat hangers on the door
[chorus]
cause you could feel it deep inside
everything you were told since 5 years old was a lie
they don’t care if you die
this is why i don’t feel ashamed
as i light me a match
this culture could burn in flames
y’all gonna know my name
and all i’ma do is laugh
as it turns into ash
the death of the golden calf
isn’t it sad
you’ve been following a lie
sucka
you’ve been worshipping a lie
[verse 3]
have you any idea how many people have tried to steer
me in a direction that would have ended my career
so many silly questions and suggestions through the years
from people that waste money on marijuana and beer
i don’t have any fear
i don’t have any left
i’m not pretending i’m just defending what i have left
i dedicate this to those who saw me as a threat
and as direct competition instead of as a friend
and that’s why we can never grow as a culture
cause the dough we fight over is preventing us from getting closer
so we grow far
and we grow numb
working so hard
that we go dumb
till we’re no one
till we don’t have the soul or the hope
so we all look to oprah
or obama
or to tyra
failing to search within ourselves to solve our problems
fascinated by frauds and false prophets
rap blogs
fast cars and gold objects
antoine has no job and no concept of
life beyond the walls of his own projects
they play the same old tired plain old
hate tunes all day on the radio
blog posts are considered yesterday’s news
even though the downloads aren’t a day old
the source has an unsigned rapper on payroll
who’s in charge of the unsigned column it makes no
sense as much as it makes dollars and payola
i should have listened to audioremoved and remained focused
even though the scout at sony told me to cross over to reggaeton
and hot 97 denied my soldiers
because fan requests ain’t as valuable as dough is anymore
this verse has no room for metaphors
so f*ck counting the bars i’m going in raw
i’m doing this for every single one of y’all
the day is coming where you won’t be watching from afar
you’ll be forced to pick up a sword cause this is a war
