Lootpack - The Anthem lyrics

If you're not flippin' cuts like
DJ Romes then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
If you're not droppin' tracks like
Mad Lib then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
Well if you're not kickin' styles
Like WildChild then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
But, if you're not supportin' hardcore
Hip hop then you're not a real hip hop MC

If you're not in tune to this total bliss
Nowadays a lot of rappers I like to diss
'Cause yo all up in your songs
You be talkin' bout your Glocks (what?)
Then you change 'cause you can't be
The same around your block
You be actin' like you're amazon
When the camera's on
But when the camera's off you be actin' soft
Cause you be in that mental
State thinkin' that you're great
But everywhere around the gates people
Sayin' that you're fake
But, you droppin' outta wake while you're
Tryin' to have your cake
But, your jams ain't got no weight
And many niggas won't debate hey how we do?
We keep it hot like Benihana (word)
With no drama while you try
To bite like a piranha
I make ya wanna bounce (bounce)

Bounce when you come to see The Pack
I'm a carbonate your flow 'cause
Your style be soundin' flat, jack
AKA constructor of a rhyme on a track
Conducted by Madlib invade your
Face like blahhhhh
Bring it back as I rock it
Slow with my lip socket
Lyrics scratch as I rock
A show with simultaneous
Functions we create 'cause we're
The sure shot
The flow got you all hypnotized
But if you're not

If you're not flippin' cuts like
DJ Romes then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
If you're not droppin' tracks like
Mad Lib then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
Well if you're not kickin' styles
Like WildChild then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
But, if you're not supportin' hardcore
Hip hop then you're not a real hip hop MC

Yo WildChild straight up rearranin'
All your drums ya niggas from the slums
Step up ya wanna hum?
As I take ya ass way back
When blacks was like chillin'

To late for that now

Why?

Brothers mad killin'

Yo I'm livin' hip hop day to
Day 'cause I feel it
Can't understand wack MCs out there
They try to kill it
I'll steal it, take it home, package it
And seal it bring it out on a daily basis
And fry it on a skillet
Question will it, will it, last forever?
Can't compare it to the past never
We use to touch the mic
Uplifting MCs on the rise
From wimpy abstract and then
Straight up vocalize

Most people nowadays talk about representin'
It's 'cause they smoke Phillys act ill
Gettin' bent in the ways of
The industry mad shady tension
Yeah most niggas trippin' off the
Ill joints we inventin' (what?)
Whether you in LA, Texas, or Trenton
Alaska, Nebraska, Japan ya have ta
Know the difference from a fake
MC to a real MC
Before you play that Loot Pack CD

If you're not flippin' cuts like
DJ Romes then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
If you're not droppin' tracks like
Mad Lib then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
Well if you're not kickin' styles
Like WildChild then you're not
(Representin' with the LPs)
But, if you're not supportin' hardcore
Hip hop then you're not a real hip hop MC
