andy cooper - last of a dying breed lyrics
[hook]
meet the last of a dying breed
the last of a dying breed
look as far as the eye can see
he’s the last of a dying breed
[verse 1]
he puts his hands up to a cl-ssic track
check his arm, there’s a microphone tat
tellin’ young kids about old school rap
’cause if they only heard it they wanna go back
mockin’ teen how they rock their jeans
yo, they don’t know what hip-hop means
he can’t understand that his day is done
and resent young cats because they young
delusion of revivalist, he’s refutable but tireless
dude, you should move into retirement
and stop biting when you can’t win
tryin’ to re-live life again
it blows away like a leaf on a cyclone
out just as fast as a thief in the night gone
and gone and gone, you can’t hold on
and you can’t make anybody like your song
but he don’t wanna hear the truth
he only wants an argument
so he can tell you he be rapping since the start of it
word, and he’s the only real mc
the last of a dying breed
[hook]
meet the last of a dying breed
the last of a dying breed
he used to be up in a higher league
now he’s the last of a dying breed
the dying breed
meet the last of a dying breed
it’s time to stand up and recite the creed
we’re the last of a dying breed
remember back in the days (oh!)
he used to be center stage (yeah!)
but then the spotlight fades (no!)
and shines on a different age, huh
[verse 2]
so these kids are goin’ at it and they got some nerve
and they talk with such energy and lots of verb
and when some old timer wants to put in a word
he ain’t given the respect that he think he deserve
well, you’re the last of the mohicans
who hates young cats because they don’t seek him
whining that they rude and they try to diss
but dude, they don’t really even know you exist
it’s not your time no more, hate to say you’re a dinosaur
and even the great zealots who walked in graces
soon became relics locked in a case
you had your opportunity to testify
come on, step aside, brother let it die
no one escapes the trap
you had your day now fade to black (hey!)
[hook]
just concede you’re a dying breed
the last of a dying breed
we only get one life to lead
we all just a dying breed (huh)
a dying breed, come meet the last of a dying breed
look as far as the eye can see
we’re the last of a dying breed
last of a dying breed
last of a dying breed
last of a dying breed
last of a dying breed
