Not A Rapper

I am not a rapper man

I'm so much better than that

I am not a rapper man

A real artist, now just watch me work


[Verse 1: Hyperaptive]

Yeah I do rap, but not by your definition

I ain't just your average every day repetition

Trying to be something, I'm not on the television

Making less sense than telling someone who's deaf to listen

I'm on a mission, to see rap redeemed

Take it right back, to that supreme

Time, when everything you said had to mean

More than just a stream of gats and G's

Beleive us, the last thing that we can concieve is

To be a couple repeaters, who just follow the leaders

Can't think further ahead than a couple metres

So we talk about spilling litres of blood with heaters

Drug dealers, wheelers, New Era, Nike, Adidas

Fuck our demeanors, if we go the deepest, no one will defeat us

See i've been a stratigist, ever since I was a fetus

Smash rap till it swivels and teeters, then bring it back to it's meanest


[Hook: Ereez]

I am not a rapper man

I'm so much better than that

I am not a rapper man

A real artist, now just watch me work


[Verse 2: Ereez]

Oh me, oh my what do I see on the TV?

A bunch of stereotypical bozos rapping so freely

So tell me, should I show the industry any pity?

When all I'm hearing is ignorance never worthy on envy

But really, it's a waste of my time and my mind

Jumping in line, with fools just for limelight

I stay spry, with brain locked on my grind

Keeping eyes, on my prize, while I rise

I think i'll be ok, if me and Hip-Hop go our seperate ways

Yeah yeah, and i'll build my own name

So I created a genre that's all me

Taking little pieces of every music to make the picture complete

Developing an energy that will never deplete

Beautiful, hardcore and epic, in other words me

I am not a rapper man

I'm so much better than that

I am not a rapper man

A real artist, now just watch me work


[Verse 3- Hyperaptive]

Ever since I heard rap, ever since I stepped in

I've loved it with a passion, not the fashion, nor the trend

But the music, the rhymes, everything rap defines

From the kinds, of music that we carefully intertwine

To the fine way we string words together which incline

You can take time, and let what we say enter your mind

Stories that are designed, to make you open your eyes

And see things differently to how your live your lives

But, now those are long lost memories

Real rap's dead and buried in the cemetry

Under five tons of straps and hennessey

But no worries, the game's got new tenancy

And the majority i've heard favors me

I produce albums and play the keys

So when someone asks what being an artist means

Tell 'em what we say Ereez


[Hook: Ereez]

I am not a rapper man

I'm so much better than that

I am not a rapper man

A real artist, now just watch me work
