Different Stage, Same Shtick

from The Antithesis by SC Static & Funky RecordZ

/

lyrics

(Intro x2)
We just some spitters on the prowl
Controlling the mic sound and this is how it’s going down

(Verse 1)
It’s really rare that you could find someone as true as me
Socially aware enough to care for my community
Generous to the extent of my gratuity
Amped up, over prepared for any opportunity
Was making moves while you made an excuse
It seems while I was paying dues you were paying for views
I hate when sucker rappers rhyme on the damn mic
Who wanna freestyle all the time cause they can’t write
Before they even rap they just stand with a stare
Barking orders at the crowd to throw their hands in the air
Yeah, demanding respect you’re wack and you just proved it
Don’t gotta ask fans to react, they just do it
I’m on call round the clock to rip a tight jam
One of the few to hold it down without a hype man
The rest of you are just pretenders and gimmicks
Only here to last as long as the trends that you mimic

(Chorus)
Like Yo! You’re shtick’s gettin’ kinda old
Everywhere I go I see the same bit at every show
Your music ain’t about shit it’s just nonsense
More concerned about your outfit than your content
So help me out cause I don’t quite understand
What’s the reason everybody’s overhyping your brand
I see the image you’ve created with a marketing plan
But who’s the man behind the man with the mic in his hand?

(Verse 2)
Cause you don’t have the hand gestures or the breath control
The fundamentals of stage presence to bless the flow
Scared to rap without a shot or a beer
On instagram posting acting like you’ve got a career
I’ve had it up to here with MC’s with no writtens
Cause those followers ain’t real and neither is your image
Unoriginal pathetic invention
Just another desperate attempt at you gettin’ attention
Prima Donna rapper acting like a friggen star
We’re not even half as important as we think we are
A real head could give a crap bout your hit track
So I don’t give daps if I think that your shit’s wack
Blaming the venue, complaining the sound’s off
You got outshined so you claim it’s the crowd’s fault
I’m here for the long hall and the clout
So do your dance, get your money little sucker then bounce


(Chorus)
Like Yo! You’re shtick’s gettin’ kinda old
Everywhere I go I see the same bit at every show
Your music ain’t about shit it’s just nonsense
More concerned about your outfit than your content
So help me out cause I don’t quite understand
What’s the reason everybody’s overhyping your brand
I see the image you’ve created with a marketing plan
But who’s the man behind the man with the mic in his hand?

(Verse 3)
I can’t believe that you actually rap seriously
You lack humility not to mention you wack lyrically
So you don’t even need to cover your trace
I can tell by your fuckin’ face you never studied the greats
My first impression of you verse is you’re a jerk off
Hoppin’ on stage and wearing skirts with your shirts off
Rockin’ fake gems pretending you’re wealthy
Then spent ten minutes of your set takin’ selfies
Unless of course the crowd isn’t big he gets petty
With the inability to rip an intimate setting
On the contrary regardless I’ll be scarin’ your town
No matter the fans in the crowd I’ll be tearin’ it down
So instead of flow for flow, let’s go show for show
Soul for soul bro you better act like you know
So take notes because Static is timeless
What you’re witnessing is underground rap at it’s finest

(Chorus)
Like Yo! You’re shtick’s gettin’ kinda old
Everywhere I go I see the same bit at every show
Your music ain’t about shit it’s just nonsense
More concerned about your outfit than your content
So help me out cause I don’t quite understand
What’s the reason everybody’s overhyping your brand
I see the image you’ve created with a marketing plan
But who’s the man behind the man with the mic in his hand?
