HoW YoU WaNt It ToDaY - RAP POETRY

I don’t really vibe with old tunes  
Find them tired,    
stuck inside closed room  
Chasing shadows of a dying old moon  
Tired of pretending they’re still shining  
Stuck rewinding  
   
That's how You Want it today  
   
Gotta Hall pass , to walk past  
recycled tunes that won't last  
Old grooves, old moves    
I’m creating  somethin new,  
sparks feel true,    
You got me wrong if you think I'm fake it, rather struggle until I make it,  
excuse me, while I take it  
I’ll break it then make it new  
   
ISNT THAT WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO  
   
I know this guy who trends  
Chasing the bendy,    
burning tracks he sends me    
Every note he hitz es fresh blend  
Labelled misfits, no need to pretend  
Comin from nothin,  
book an pen    
Molding beats with hands until the threads mend;  
Something unique like a set of fresh pens :  
Wolf Eatin fat hens;  
He’s growing, where the craft bends,  
still setting trends ,  
They play the same hits, rinse, and pretend ,    
sad beats ain't makin ends  
   
THAT’S JUST HOW IT GOES TODAY  
   
Life’s about creation, no rules to the sound  
Lyrical celebration, journey unbound    
Build it, break it, spin it all upside down  
Guess he likes innovation,    
pioneer players around;  
(Never turnin them down)  
Catch the moment; never slowing it  
Rhythms are profound  
No limit, no crown  
Lyrical king feet on ground    
Who’s to say what’s the best around?  
Different sorts of sound  
world go round,  
Painting skies in boundless playground , in the underground  
Really, I’m astounded, movin in the now,    
Makin fresh beats, movin the crowds    
that's all I know how    
Something fresh that will stay    
   
ISNT THAT WHAT YOU WANT TODAY  
   
East-side dreamer, im not in rotation  
Spaceship Satellite that's my station  
Music that makes sparks imagination  
Infinite explosion when i drop vibrations  
I don’t adapt; I create foundations  
I just do what i do; i just do it for the nation  
I don’t need validation; I'm just living in the booth  
Hand me the mic and let me light up with the truth    
Turn it up, let’s ignite innovation now  
   
Too many artists seeking clout,    
chasin fame in a frame,  
Then repeat, then repeat, till it all sounds the same  
Sad beats what a shame , all same    
One day hot, trending today, then fades  
Tomorrow it’s erased;  
Im not that kind, no!  
If I don’t feel it, I don’t feel it;  
Let it go    
New vibes that we bring, yo  
Break the ceiling when we build it  
Not famous but the fans adore it!  
Don’t need the sunrise ; I want the sunsets  
To play sets, a life without regrets  
sure someone gonna play this  
streets are dangerous  
for every innovator  
There’s a sea of imitators  
For every groundbreaker  
There's cheaper flavors  
For every pure rhythm  
A fake ass Rhyme    
Radio Player    
Pocket filled with nickels and dimes    
   
50 times a day, yo,  
It’s the same played-out halo  
Bling an a Hey Yo  
every song writer Gonna say no,    
some pay tho  
For every cliché,    
Echoed in lyrical payload  
every single day,    
Creating something though  
   
(Im going to follow their rules, no!)  
If it’s not real, what's the deal yo  
(I'm not trying to be famous)  
I can remain nameless    
As long as you play this  
 
(Awesome old school outro.....🔥😎)
