If I can be honest, New York needed the fire lit

And since K is high flying now, he had to pilot it

Forget about the Apple’s eye, look at the core of it

New York’s got a story and y’all know what the morale is

Embrace the CONtent instead of being conTENT

Going from big game hunters to being hunted

Rappers looking vulnerable and its apparent

Y’all birthed styles but were deadbeat parents

So then K adopted’em and brought’em home

And 18 years later came back for your dome

Flashing the chrome like rims in some timbs

Dre’s Kevorkian and gave him the syringe

He injected it and watched y’all squirm

Then whispered in your ear, “Now its y’all turn”

And when he said it, you were all heated

But y’all are the reason he and his crew are all eating

So then you want to respond and just diss’em

Instead of analyzing his words, seeing the vision

This is bigger than any offence taken

Reevaluate the song choices that you’re making

Before you go and rap on something that is not you

Before you go and rap about something is not truth

Before you get emotional and run up in the booth

Think about what he was saying, is that you?

Cause if it is, you only got a couple lives left

K. taking cats out like Chinese is on his breath

But hold on East Coast, I got a plan

And you ain’t gotta worry if you just follow my stance

Think back to the golden era, we had this

We were never followers, we were the catalyst

Not leading seems like such a small difference

But dumbing down our sound is what made us all infants

And then we gave the rest a chance to grow up

So if you can’t deliver the goods, they gonna blow up

So East Coast rappers, I’m a tell it real

If its the last thing you do, stop asking for a deal

Trust me, these independents are killing you

And when they raise their stock up, they partnering from a Mill or two

And that’s just good business folk

You can’t be mad, y’all should be taking notes

And one last thing before I leave

Stop giving all of your music away for free

…..I guess a lot of our coldness

Comes from the fact that we’re not used to being owners

Well that needs to change right now

So you can tell these A&Rs to pipe down

….And control your own destiny

So listen close, here’s some of the recipe

If you making free mixtapes raw

Don’t make that one better than the one they pay for

….And just do one, not five

Or eventually you’ll have to do ten, just to survive

…..Now that’s just bad business

You giving away a ton of free samples plus the dishes

But right now, I’m going lead by example

Get ready for My Science, the blogs’ll have a sample

And every three months, you can buy a new song

And rock that until the next one comes along

...So feel free to follow me

On Twitter and life, man I’m an anomaly

So who’s worried about K, not me

East Coast represent, till then God Speed

Its Illest....
