SLOW.V / RETROSPECT

SLOW.V / RETROSPECT - The New Generation Theory lyrics

rate me

[Spoken:]

Rap, is just a stem

A part on the branch

That comes from what we are all about

[Verse 1: Slow V]

Yo, turn my mic up I want to make sure they hear me

Loud and clear on this one

Yo this a new generation we live in, it's different

Where the government creates a space for every black in prison

They said the banned prejudice it's still all the same

Black man can't find a job unless he got a white name

They brain wash us into thinking we need to be luxurious

Live above our income, can't make no payments

We used to judge on actions, back then we had principle

Nowadays they rather see you sleep with the minerals

School board can't afford to keep the teachers

These kids will pray to Sponge Bob before they pray to Jesus

Even church ain't the same they got you paying for a seizure

Work hard get paid just to lace up the preacher

It's not sacred no more, we're losing the Holy War

I seen more people remarried, then blacks with bad credit scores

Over night lovers, families without structure

Kids without parents and babies becoming mothers

Even hip-hop done changed, this shit is just made ruckus

Nigga shits over a beat and the people love it

That's why I pass it down the line, so you can pass it down the line

So they'll never forget the true origin of rhyme

[Chorus x2: Slow V]

Slow V, this is my new generation theory

Retro, this is his new generation theory

S.R. this our new generation theory

Yes y'all, this our new generation theory

[Spoken:]

Everywhere in the world

Every high school, every junior high school

Every elementary school, got a rapper in it

So something that at one time in the early '70's & '80's

Was a novelty, now is every day

[Verse 2: Retrospect]

Uh, yea

Just listen

Acceptance, the downfall of the human society

It's irony, no need to buy CDs because of piracy

Acceptance, lesbian adoptions and gay doctors

Wanting a call from the state office is straight non-sense

In gay alters, holy matrimony marriage

Having sex with dead bodies, horny cats will only cherish

Acceptance, sadomasochistic, no exceptions

Anorexics will be in effect as a human investment

Corrupted elections, and nothing is mentioned

Your daughter's fucking with gangsters with drugs on her necklace

The good is slowly fading; it's time for fucking action

That's why I wrote this rhyme, to make sure it doesn't happen

Infections, infections, somewhere down the line there's a misconception

Which will lead to an acceptance, don't misconceive the message

Just pass the knowledge chisel it in stone

So it will always be known that the start of hip-hop, was in the Bronx by Jamaicans

So when you hear this song pass it to your generation

You'll pass it down the line so he can pass it down the line

So they'll never forget the true origin of rhyme

[Chorus x2: Retrospect]

Retro, this is my new generation theory

Slow V, this is his new generation theory

S.R. this our new generation theory

Yes y'all, this our new generation theory

[Spoken:]

Even though you don't sell records

It has nothing to do with

Your level of skill as an emcee

Or your credibility in hip-hop

It might have something to do

With your level of skill or credibility

In the corporate board rooms

Whose bottom line is the dollar

And how many records you can sell

But who gives a fuck about them and their opinion

They know nothing about hip-hop
