Fixed Lyrics
Hip hop is art
Don't make another pop hit, be smart
Take it back to the start
Like KRS and Rakim use passion and heart
Don't get me wrong, I ain't dissing Dizzee Rascal
I'm just using his beat as a single example
It was the first big hit of it's kind in the pop charts
Spawned a lot of shit with profit in mind, not heart
Channel U's full of "UK sound and ringtones",
Think they should all have "p45s to bring home".
Prancing about like they're the next big thing,
'Cos their cousin's got an 8 track and their mate Daryll can sing
These kids getting above their stations and sayin',
They're a vessel through which a higher power's conveyin':
"My lyrical content is a miracle, God sent"
My name is Scroobius Pip and I say fuck all that nonsense!
Their lyrical prognosis is like spiritual osmosis
In that everything they say evaporates into boasts - it's a joke!
I've listened and I can't even find one quote
That's worth using as a reference or even as a footnote
Yeah, most of these kids could get their guns out and kill me,
But how many got the skill to inspire and thrill me?
I've got a holster, I keep biscuits in it,
It wears into your brain leaving big fat blisters in it.

Who'm I better than? I'm better than I used to be,
I'ma keep on getting better so you better just get used to me
You think that's a cop out? Then hear my point truthfully
'Cos chances are, deep down this is how you should be
If your aim is to be as good as Scroobius Pip
Once you've finally achieved that your standards have slipped
If your goal is always to improve on yourself
Then the quest is never over no matter how big your wealth.
Hip hop is art
Don't make another pop hit, be smart
Take it back to the start
Like KRS and Rakim use passion and heart
