REACTION lyrics
by Ras Kass
[Verse 1]
Rappers today get on my nerves
Mostly mid and get way more than they deserve
I got a way with words
Confrontational like racial slurs
Create awards for inferior nerds
And I can only ruffle ya feathers 'cause he really a bird
Gatekeepers gave you the world, they polishin' turds
And i’m all about that action, bruh, I’m really a verb
You cartoonish, animated, Phineas Ferb
AI raps, writers camps sayin' sh*t in the Forbes
Entitled little rich kids like spoiled girls
Face a little bit of adversity and start clutching ya pearls
Rap is Gеico now, so easy a caveman can do it prolly
They just discovеred fire, we droppin' nukes on Nagasaki
Normalized rhymin' off-beat and sloppy carbon copies
So anybody rhymin' with an ounce of talent lookin' like the Annunaki
It’s like being 5'4" in a world full of dwarves
To them, you Shaq 'til Yao Ming come back, n*gga
[Interlude 1]
You can't go to war and then say, "I quit" on some [?] sh*t, n*gga (That sh*t hard)
[?], bar wars, y'know what I'm sayin'? (Bar wars)
You say you the best
Nobody go into a boxing match and says "I wanna come in second place"
Who does that? And J. Cole, hol' on, too
[Verse 2]
Legendary battles in rap
Battle rappers gladiators, there's a talent in that
So let's recap, the three top-selling lyricists in hip-hop got in a scrap
A Mexican standoff, one man blew his own damn hand off, f*ck was that?
He out the rankings
The other man sued, a sore loser, straight goober
In underground cyphers, we call that a twofer
In underground cyphers, we call that a twofer
In underground cyphers, we call that a twofer
[Interlude 2]
Any of your friends got a leaf?
I got rollies, I mean I got a roll of papers ([?])
I just got a roll of papers
[?] that leaf
[Verse 3]
(Too much West Coast di*k lickin') This started a backlash
My name ain't "West Coast", I can only speak for Ras Kass
Know that JAY-Z line well, got the west hotter than the backdraft
But that's past, it's '25
So I'ma spit 25 two-fives like Crip Mac
Plenty eyes on the crown, let's admit that
Every ruler returnin' is s'posed to spit cracks
Hip-hop is friendly competition, Joey did that
But most won't survive five miles next to the impact
Line for line and bar for bar, most n*ggas been wack
Overrated small fries
I'm literally five guys, so what the f*ck is a Big Mac? Clown
I’m Ocho Cinco wife, receivin' all the kickback
Big balls, knickknacks, still poppin' like Click-Clacks
You dudes on YouTube overreactin' for views
Same sh*t magazines did in 2002
Bruh, don’t get it confused, this sh*t rigged
Rich people choose. let n*ggas brand shoes and sell booze
Tech bros with hidden agendas, pickin' the winners
Why so-called champs ducking contenders?
I’m from that era: Bigger and Deffer
Diss three n*ggas on one record with no effort
f*ck your name, f*ck your fame, and f*ck your investors
I will bodyslam a n*gga while you chargin' your Tesla
Like WWE wrestlers
These rapstars try to treat other talent like we the f*ckin' extras
Nah, I’m the Dexter and this is Highlander
So keep your head on 'til the next war, n*gga
[Outro]
Ayy, ayy, Ras, hold up, man, come back, where you goin', man?
Turn around, playa, you hot now, ain'tcha?
Let's cool 'em down
