[verse 1: stephen the levite]

this is for my back-packers who hate the cr-p they play on the (radio)
all of it is garbage they calling it (entertainment though)
b00bs, booties and booze, fools spewing the (lamest flows)
no respect or etiquette ethics are (situational)

i remember listening mimicking in the (age of gold)
hip hoppers who taught and brought me back to the (days of old)
it was retrospective respecting the heads who (came before)
cats who battled for status rapping before their (names were known)

started in the parks in the bronx with parties and (crazy shows)
crowds wowed by the styles wil’in’ shouting and (saying “ho!”)
innovators made it amazing changing the (way we flow)
turning turntables from players to something (playable)

nowadays we’re labeled as haters because we (hate the flows)
sk!lls have taken a chill to make a mill for some (shady folk)
djs are eliminated from the (equation so)
mix-tapes are mistakes a generation has (labeled wrong)

rappers battle without a track to back it or (make it dope)
more like poet with jokes you know they wrote it some (days ago)
if you’re spitting a written just admit it and (make it known)
don’t mislabel or fake it take it the way you (take it homes)

i am sure there’s more deplorable horrible (ways to show)
disrespect and disconnection from heads that have (made the culture)
giving into the industry in the name of (making dough)
ditching definitions traditions gave us to (make your own)

folks who don’t even know the culture control the (way it’s going)
saying school is for fools and do the music the (way you’re told)
make absurdity circulate and (perpetuate the clones)
all the slaves are afraid they won’t get paid if they (break the mold)

all that’s under the sun has been done a bunch of (ways before)
history is repeated frequently you can (trace it bro)
young bucks who buck against wisdom written in (ancient scrolls)
one in particular we should consider is (rehoboam)

[verse 2: stephen the levite]

following his father solomon in line to (take the throne)
heads met him in shechem requesting rest for their (aching bones)
didn’t listen to the wisdom he’s given (forsake the old)
traded it to obey the peers he played with at (eight years old)

instead of blessing them he’s threatening them with a (weighty load)
scorpions for the insubordinate or the (lazy folk)
they retort reporting they have no portion in (david’s home)
after that they attack the task master who’s (slain with stones)

they divide like ahijah prophesied in the (reign before)
jeroboam is over most of them he’s a (hater though)
every kid that sits in his throne is wicked and (can’t be told)
one rebellion begets a plethora (separating homes)

these are the dangers that our generation is (facing bro)
a legacy can be spread or end with me if i (make it so)
we be making the same mistakes and say we can (change the globe)
change is probably our biggest problem that needs to (change the most)

make the bigger decision quicker than we can (change our clothes)
peers cheering us on steer us wrong (what you waiting for?)
old heads who know better tell us to (take it slow)
we dismiss what they’re pitching tripping saying (they ain’t jehovah)

we be trying to justify our defiance with (names and quotes)
even blaming lecrae when that ain’t what he was (saying though)
even i with “to die is gain” i feel like i (played a role)
fueling revolutionist with a truth they had (taken wrong)

the commission depends on the submission of (baby souls)
how you gonna train up a child that’s not even (trainable)
just a couple years in the faith and babies will (say they’re grown)
just because they studied a bunch of books they would (say they know)

but maturity’s more than reading more of these (saints of old)
it’s putting to practice the stuff you scratch when you’re (taking notes)
living it consistently with some length being (faithful bro)
when someone who is gives you wisdom, remember (rehoboam)
