Sweat The Technique



Sweat The Technique

There's a battle for your mind but you say it's just fine
 pulling a 9 to your head it's the walking dead
 Not since the day of creation did we stand with ovation
 A seed was drop from a farmers bag that was bad
 Satan the god of this world is blinding good people
 Peeps stay at home when they can be at the church steeple
 Sex on the beach maybe your favorite drink
 But I can't dismiss this earthly bliss in thought
 Once a soul is sold it can't ever be bought
 Drop some smooth lyrics out on the sunset scene
 Living in a land that is so very mean
 when I roll of you captures you better be ready
 Girl you got a bun in the oven by your kissing cousin
 Sweat the technique from your head to your feet
 Bare with me son cause you can't do me none
 Poetics to poetry we must see reality
 search the hood just like Robin Hood
 then there's the Maiden Mary Ann who has a plan
 yet the battle ensues as you sing the blues
 a lot of suckers like to forget me but they can't
 start this cause I'm the artist
 walk with your head up when I hear whacked rhymes it's a set up
 All the brothers don't eat chicken & watermelon
 so now what are you selling
 let's get back to hip hop in what it meant to Scott Larock
 keep your head up & look to the sky
 Sweat the technique as you sit in your seat
 Right from your head right down to your feet
 Got to get in the zone busting out rhymes like Home Alone
 we came this far not to turn back now
 can't turn around when your hands on the plow
 yet in the end I choose to be a soldier in the army of God
 got to stay in school & obey the golden rule
 only one life is soon to be passed only what's done for him will last
 we got followers with no good leaders
 blood in the streets & there needs to be better education
 many take a break on a long awaited vacation
 the crowd is ready & me feet is steady
 until my last breath I must confess a rhyme that shines
 sex, drugs & rap for some is where its at
 so you slip & fall giving you a heart attack
 rap & roll is noise pollution
 take my magic wand as a sure fire solution
