[Intro- K.A.A.N]

Uh huh, yes lawd

Knowledge

Shoutout Forever M.C mayne

Yes lawd

[Verse 1- K.A.A.N]

Uh, look

Said I just started out with nothin', yeah

Still putting in my time, that 10 thousand hour shift

Me?, I'm a workaholic

You just complain and [?] panic

And the pressure's setting in, you could feel it

Basic, that's the perfect term if I'm tryna describe you

Better attitude's the only thing I can prescribe you

Bottom but I rose

Don't get exposed, I'll come and find you

My lines can move the masses

You barely got off your ass kid

No passive aggressive tendencies, I'm more than direct

The hardest workin' man alive since James Brown ain't living

You must be kidding, tomorrow isn't promised, it's given

I'm striking while the iron's hot, you pick it up when it's lukewarm

Can't figure the flow out, I pick up the mic and I shows out

Speak on the shit that I know 'bout

All of my niggas that [?]

My operation is [?]

That means I that do what you never did

And I've been where you never been, they can't get in too

Let's not talk about the best, that's not a list that you're in dude

It's evidence of a mission with this lyrical jut-jitsu

You was focused on the lights

Supposed to focus on the writing though

Enlighten those that way off, they think they 'bout to take off

This game will steal your whole life, Bernie Madoff, then laugh at ya

Mad rappers and bitter artists, they never last

The simple gimmicks don't work, they tryin' something else

Assistance at it's best, but the efforts were poorly given

Take your pride and attention and place 'em in the proper places

Amazin' what a little patience does for the weak

Let me beseech you with this elegance and bless you again

Everything it comes in due time, there's more to explain, lawd

[Chorus]

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad,mad yeah they never last

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad,mad yeah they never last

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad,mad yeah they never last

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad, mad, mad

[Verse 2- Hi-Rez]

(ye-yeah, Rez)

Yo' whole life is an illusion

What you rappin' 'bout is worse than pollution

The institution's so fucked, no solution

Catch a contact be around them losers and fiends

You all glued to the screen, chasing after the green

You don't have no life, we are not alike

No Adidas, but I been earnin' my stripes

I crush mics, I'm the Iron Fist

Your Purple Rain got you high as Prince

When I die, I pray you dyin' quick

All the frauds rappin' 'bout shit you don't do

Comin' from the southside like it's soul food

Rappin since '02 lord I could show you

I've put my whole life in Pro Tools

You lyin' in your rhymes, every single time, I ain't gotta lie

It's Forever, K.A.A.N and Rez

I've been doing this since birth and I'll do it till death, Rez

[Chorus]

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad,mad yeah they never last

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad,mad yeah they never last

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad,mad yeah they never last

Mad, mad, mad, mad rappers

Mad, mad, mad
