(Fuck about with the beat a bit Dan)
(Ahoho Ahoho Hohoho)
(Dan Le Sac versus Scroobius Pip)
(Yeh)
(Glad you agree Dizzee, thanks for the support)
Hip hop is art
Don't make another pop hit, be smart
Take it back to the start
Like KRS and Rakim use passion and heart
Don't get me wrong, I'm not dissing Dizzee Rascal
I'm just using his beat as a single example
It was the first big hit of its kind in the pop charts
All that last shit with profit in mind, not heart
Prancing about like they're the next big thing
'Cause their cousins got an eight track and their mate Darryl can sing
These kids getting above their stations and saying,
There a vessel through which a higher power's conveying
"my lyrical content is a miracle, godsent"
My name is scroobius pip and I say fuck all that nonsense
Their lyrical prognosis is like spirital osmosis
In that everything they say evaporates into boasts, its a joke
Ive listened and I cant even find one quote which is
Worth using as a reference or even as a footnote
Yeah, most of these kids could get their guns out and kill me,
But how many have the skill to inspire and thrill me?
I've got a holster I keep biscuits in it, it works into
Your brain leaving big fat blisters in it.
Who am I better than, I'm better than I used to be,
I'm gonna keep on getting better so you better just get used to me
If you think that's a cop out then hear my point
Truthfully cos chances are deep down this is how you used to be
If you aim is to be as good as scroobius pip,
Once you finally achieved it you standards will slip
But if your goal is only to improve on yourself
Then the quest is never over no matter how big your wealth.
