lyrics

How to rap your way out of any situation
As you can see it's real easy
just drop day beat
and play guitar real smooth over the top
and let the party people know the bass about to drop...

Fuck yeah.
I could never rap my way around you
I could never rap myself away to freedom

Bringing machine guns to the natives
we're bringing hip hop to the slaves
The pirates with the skull and crossbones
never went away...

It hits you hard my tomahawk made of a word
never have I seen an entire nation fall on its sword
It feels good it feels right, sell the native children in the night
enough beads and trash they'll never put up a fight
they can pretend their not slaves, they'll take a lower wage
while we build a media empire like a motherfucking radio mage
if the guilt of it all keeps you anxious and weary
sell em a little house with a picket fence
straight out of Beverly Cleary

Ramona age 88, she knew.
Civilization was built on a pile of skulls
add them to your collection and build a bunch of strip malls
or save them up for something really giant
like a Nephalihm to stomp the defiant
Your next step, it's the simplest kind of answer
start a cult, grow a base, spread your wealth like it's cancer
when it's genocide, just don't forget there's a way to be forgiven
you can try to rap your way out of any situation

yeah, we all fall in...
Bringing machine guns to the natives
we're bringing hip hop to the slaves
The pirates with the skull and crossbones
never went away...

It's very odd, this descent into manic-depressive behavior
it'll take everything you've got, you're going to call me the savior
and that's just fine if the result makes you feel bad
if it's the only thing you've got left to give
it's the only thing I'll ever ask
let me tell you now, if it's any consolation
this is how I rap my way out of any situation.
