Guitar Hero Lyrics
[Rabbi Darkside]
Microphone jack I wanna rock with you
I love lines like Dr. Drew
Speak of the soul like Posdonous
I’m digging in like soccer shoes
Been kicking on the corner before Hip Hop was all prostitutes
Timbalands all Puss-n-Boots
Rhymes are all Dr. Suess
Nobody wants to incubate they think they pop out instant greats
Crowd hangs on my every word when you rhyme they just wince and wait
Difference much like sinner / saint
You’ll snooze alarm I scintillate
Let me just reiterate I innovate you finish late
I’m the sterling silver and fine china for your dinner plate
You’re the Styrofoam that’s poison even when I incinerate
Hottest where the flame is blue it’s not like I’m just blaming you
Somewhere along the line cultural pride became all fame consumed
Nobody heard the voices on the sideline yelling “Danger dude!”
Before you knew it quality was terrible as the age of two
Kept the candle lit stayed in the pocket like a kangaroo
Practiced on my craft like true apprentices are trained to do
Played right like I tamed a shrew
Walked a Daddy Kane or two
Everything I wrote I lived and living’s all I claim to do
[Brother Hamm]
Put down the Rockband pick up a real guitar
You’re keeping your mental potential sealed in jars
Measuring your net worth on a social network
My head hurts and it’s only gonna get worse
[Rabbi Darkside]
It must seem kind of strange existing in the age of made up truths
Where everything’s synthetic from the Tritons to the homemade booths
Color contact lenses down to bootleg Nike boots
The excuses chief execs give for the abusive use of troops
Consumers think they rule the roost but lack the tools to choose
And succumb to impulse buys while my hand stays cool as Luke’s
Products got y’all wigging out like wind exposing roots
While I don’t assume a thing like Iran disposed of nukes
Now I’ve been hustled one or two times bought a golden goose
Fanangled dangled swindled sheistered wooley eyed and duped
Shook down for my lunch money nickel back got juked
Thought I bought the engine when I just bought the caboose
One night I got pickpocketed by two dames in cahoots

They took me for my loose change and my belt right out the loop
Been conned by charities that cherry pick on generosoity
When bankrupt from ambulance rides to Sinai and Maimonidies
My point in this dog eat dog ecnomony
Where drama becomes comedy and comedy stars Sean Connery
Is that there is a price tag on everything like Monopoly
But all those things ain’t worth a thing without integrity and honesty
[Brother Hamm]
Put down the Rockband pick up a real guitar
You’re keeping your mental potential sealed in jars
Measuring your net worth on a social network
My head hurts and it’s only gonna get worse
[Rabbi Darkside]
Those two bits right there human kind’s greatest commodity
Greater than stocks or property couldn’t be won in the lottery
The only way that we can be one not magic or sorcery
It’s being true to self and speaking out against monstrosity
Scotland Lokerby to ten year old kids hocking trees
To hazings in the locker room to kamikaze prophecies
Atrocities are everywhere stopping them is common sense
Instead of reading current events young minds are blurred with fraudulence
People are you satisfied with where the world is headed?
Do you have the wherewithal to be a mentor teach a lesson?
To each his own I know but if we each own up to questioning
I’ll swing strike like Ichiro and eat my own suggestion
For on that day our sons and daughters got the greatest weapon
There in lies the difference between remembering and forgetting
So in between the punchlines, the hoorays and the hands up
Respond to calls, call and respond, get up, stand up
