I Dont Understand It Lyrics

    [Verse 1]
    There are too many MC's who are overrated
    You ask me, they wasn't even supposed to make it
    In the rap biz, they don't know what rap is
    So give it up, become a actor or a actress
    Or a producer, cause you fail to use the
    Mic right, so take flight before I bruise ya
    For sayin those bull crap wack raps on wax
    You need to get smacked, sit back and rip that contract
    Hey yo, I'm serious, Big L ain't playin games
    I should get foul and buck wild and start sayin names
    But deep down inside you know who you are
    Your rhymes are not up to par, you fake superstar
    And that really gets on my nerve
    When a rapper gets the credit that he don't deserve
    Goin platinum and don't have no soul
    Some rappers are mad nice and don't even go gold
    I don't like the way it's goin down
    Because it should be the other way around
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    How MC's take this rap game for granted

    [Verse 2]
    MC's - what's goin on?
    I don't understand, man, how rappers cold transform
    One minute you're hardcore and raw
    That's what you was known for, but not no more
    You changed, you rearranged
    You're not the same, your raps are blame
    That explain why you lost your fame
    Used to be on top, then you fell like rain drops
    You turned pop, now you no longer gain props
    Who's fault is that? Nobody's but your own, black
    Used to make fat tracks, jack, but now you're stone wack
    So MC's, don't ever step out your range
    Remain the same
    And only change with the time
    Unless you get dropped like a dime
    Go for yours like I'm goin for mine
    But if you're rough, stay rough, if you're dap, stay dapper
    And never try to look or even sound like another rapper
    Just fulfill your own needs
    Some rappers wore gold chains, and now they're wearin beeds?
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    How MC's take this rap game for granted

    [Verse 3]
    This is how it should be done
    I'm not the one, and my raps is strong like gum
    But some MC's grab the mic and sound dumb
    Plus slum (How come?) Rap skills they have none
    And I wonder how the hell they records sell
    They raps are stale and frail
    They're forced like fairy tales
    Your technique and everything you speak's weak
    You got a little airplay because of your beats
    Your fame and your name, but your lyrics are lame, black
    Step to this and get ran over like train tracks
    Your raps border wack, and you went on tour with that
    Crap, don't understand it, cause rhyme skills you lack
    I got more soul that Nike Airs, givin MC's nightmares
    Rappers be frontin hard, and rhymes they don't write theirs
    But still call themselves MC's
    Please, how could that be?
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    I don't understand it (I don't understand it)
    How MC's take this rap game for granted
    I don't understand it
