[Verse 1: Asher Roth] What up world? Finally here Let me roll you up a joint while you grab us a beer, for real I feel like things been getting a bit weird And so I've got a bone to pick with all the music I hear Amongst all the marketing schemes I try my hardest to embark within the artist in me Wear my heart on my sleeve, play my part on the beat And when I'm on, the other stars find it hard to compete But all the jargon gets bombarded makes it harder to keep Going on with what I started, feel I've fallen effete Cause what they want is just a product, sing a song about weed Being blunt or being honest doesn't sell CD's But see, I've been loving titties and such But there's so much I'd rather talk about than being a drunk Skinny dippin' with some women real thin with the bud Is way more interestin' to listeners, I guess it's because
[Hook: Asher Roth] See that underground sound radio don't play So today to be a star you've gotta look both ways They want that dope shit, dope shit, dope shit And I'm here They say they want that dope shit, dope shit, dope shit Well alright, but they want something more commercial Well alright Now see that underground sound radio don't play So today to be a star you've gotta look both ways They want that dope shit, dope shit dope shit And I'm here
You know the bright stars, lovely chicks Party scenes, all the fans and shit Less street talk and some politics Are you in touch what's happening? Alright [We got it for you, it's the dope shit] Alright, well alright, well okay
[Verse 2: Asher Roth] It's all nonsense As long as we believe it we'll continue to be heavenly incompetent Its all profit As long as they're controlling our thoughts they're calling the shots, it's obvious With no options We turn on the television but all it tells is to listen to gossip They're all monsters Convincing you they're living under the bed or even in the closet But they're in our work, in our church, in our conscience And in our schools, in our rules, in our congressmen Confused use god defense But how soon we find out even God's with them My god your god who's side you with? My god's your god two sides of sin Common sense, not science of rocket ship That's why I dream, step to a new consciousness In my dream slept with the new concept and Speak through, seek truth, think positive Do concerts connect with an audience And tell the whole world direct that we all in this Our fault our fathers had started this To all y'all yo we all got a part in this When it's all said and done put my heart in this And then still find time for some party shit
[Hook: Asher Roth]
[Outro: Asher Roth] I'm feeling pretty good right now, you know? Just got some shit off my chest, right You know I'm all for some good music and some chillin' and some vibin' out I think it's only appropriate that we breaking it down But right now we're here for the fabulous 1500 or Nothin'
