Luyện nghe bài hát Message to the Rappers

Hey, yeah, we the same from a long time ago
We was talkin about television and it on the radio
What we did was to our generation realize
They had to get out there and get busy cause it gonna be televised
We got respect for you rappers and the way they be
But if youre gon be folks things, make sure you know what youre sayin
Older folks in our neighborhood got of know-how
Remember if it for them, you wouldnt be out here now
And I aint at you with no disrespect
All Im is that you damn well got to be correct
Because if youre gonna be for a whole generation
And you know to try and handle their education
Make you know the real deal about past situations
It aint just repeatin you heard on the local TV stations
Sometimes tell lies and put em in a truthful disguise
But the truth is thats why we said it wouldnt be
They dont know to say to our young folks, but they know that you do
And if really knew the truthwhy would they tell you?
The first is peace, tell all them gun totin young brothas
the man is glad to see us out there killin one another
We too much hell when they was shootin us down
So they started poisoning our minds to jerk us all around
And they tell us they got to come in and our situation
They want half of us on dope and the other in incarceration
If the ones they want dead aint killed by they instigated
They put some dope on a brothas body and claim it was drug
Tell them drug related means there need to be no investigation
Or at least the way theyre gon play it on the local TV stations
All your brothasgive them somthin to think about
Tell you heard that this is the new word, they got to work that stuff out
But they feel in the wrong way with a gun in their hands
They real independentbut they just pullin contracts for the man
Five and five will you its hopeless out there on the avenue
But if they really knew the truthwhy would they tell
And if look at you like youre insane
And they start you scarecrow and say you aint got no brain
Or tellin folks that you suddenly gone lame
Or that white folks had finally co-opted game
Or yet implying that you dont really know
the same thing they said about usa long time ago
Young rappers, one suggestion before I get out of your way
But I appreciate the respect you me and what you got to say
Im sayin protect your community and that respect around
Tell and sistas they gotta calm that bullshit down
Cause terrorizin our old folks and brought fear into our homes
And aint got to hang out with the senior citizens
Just them, Dammitleave the old folks alone
And we know who off the neighborhood, tell them, That BS has got to stop!
Tell them sorry they cant handle it out there
But they got to take the off the block
And if they at you like youre insane
And start callin you scarecrow and say you aint got no brain
Or tellin folks that you suddenly gone lame
Or that folks had finally co-opted your game
Or worse yet that you really dont know
Thats the same thing said about me a long time ago
And if they tell folks that you finally your nerve
Thats the same thing they said about us, when we said,
But I think the young folks need to know, that things dont go both
You talk respect of every other song or just every other day
Im speakin on now is the raps about the women folks
On one song shes your African Queen on the one shes a joke
And you said no words that I havent heard, but that aint no compliment
It only eight people out of ten and questions your intelligence
Four letter or four syllable words wont make you important
Itll only magnify how shallow you are and let know it
And if they look at you like they think you
Or they you scarecrow thinkin you aint got no brain
Or start tellin folks that you suddenly lame
Or that white folks have finally co-opted game
Or you really dont knowThey said that me a long time ago
If they finally start to tell people that you your nerve
what they said about Johannesburg
You aint have got a brain
You havent gone lame; you have got game
the nerve
Keep the
Keep the
the nerve
Im talkin about
