Exposed - Rite Hook

So many kids, I done had enough, so many fuckin' little pussies rappin but

never had it tough

Daddy sat em up, in the front row of anger management in '04

That’s when you decide to make a career out of this huh

It’s kinda funny yo I’m young in this game but know the fuckin road is comin

slow

It sucks, you gotta face it cause I don’t want to be that old dude hatin' on

the younger generations

I’m moving with the times, stayin' relevant, so if that means I gotta dumb down

the rhymes I guess I gotta do it sometimes

Just for the hell of it, that shit was intelligent, speakin' to myself, my bad,

you don’t get it kid

I feel like I’m talkin' to myself like M said, but I thought it before he made

a song about it for 10 years

Ahead of my time 'n that’s for sure, only cause I was taught by the best of 'em

tellin' me what’s raw

Outkast and Slick Rick were killin' shit and talked through my speakers,

I took it as a student and saw the teachins

Can’t forget Nas and J, I could go all day but this blunt got me zonin' and

ramblin' away

So much animosity but I handle the never ending hate like it’s love and he’s

likin' it, fight with you punks

and they all know my history, impeccably nicer that y’all

A definite win, enough of me when they supposedly spit

A vast black hole of rehashed assholes, I’m from the wrong side of things and

see past that joke

Things are changin', they have been since day one, you just acknowledge it,

easier with age and amazed 'em with every chance you get patience is something

that should dislayed like a blazing gun, fear it but take it as it comes,

face it but wait for snakes to run, ain’t it funny how things relate when

you’re making jems

'n all these lyrics came to me once I heard the beat

The instrumental to my life, it’s like a murder scene

The theme music for the walk home, after you witness someone you love gettin'

hurt when you talk to 'em

The realization that it’s your fault, acceptin' it, like the death of a

relative, lettin' go of it

Hope you feel that too, the key the song is played in, the man of many faces,

jottin' the pages

Swayin' on top of it, lost in the matrix that’s why I drink a bottle every

night and talk the basics

Keepin' us grounded together, lay the foundation down first and we can drown

'em forever

Makin' others seem like they underwater and bothered, makin' all my dreams

possible, when all of you wanna

Thought I made it clear, coulda sworn god gave you ears, use em what they’re

made for, if not then what you doin' ain’t sayin' shit

I’m made for this and that’s a motha fuckin' given, brought up in a city of

shitty kids taught to be criminals, Boston, can’t forget Worcester,

the whole state of Mass is in a state of chaos, I’m watchin' it crumble often

But the heart and soul in us is on like let’s open it up

Show em what it’s here for, raw talent is there in rare form, I’m at the front

of the march with a real gun

While you kids are playin' with the nerf shit, since when was it cool to be a

nerd in the verse shit

I’m laughin' while I’m thinkin' about it but it’s a serious matter so all I can

do is bring it out

Exposin' you, don’t you know how to follow a crowd, I suppose you do,

suckas draw when I’m around like I’m aimin' true, expose em like a photo shoot,

I always wonder what happened to the truth, close my eyes and roll the dice

So far life hasn’t given much at least you got you mind still so you focus

right, I guess that’s how it’s goin' down
