Giovane uomo che / vivi la vita perche’ c’e’
una cultura fat / che illumina i tuoi giorni come dei led;
con le parole del rap
con i passi della break
con i mix e con gli scratch
con i muri e le tags, sai che
ci si butta nella mischia ci si arrischia
quando ci si mette in vista c’e’ sempre quello che fischia
se poi sei un vero artista in frista o in pista
prima cerchi la / fama nella strada e solo dopo la rivista.
Questa va / a chi sa perche’ lo fa, ad ogni fra che non si atteggia a vamp/
ad ogni click come i bootcamp,/
a chi vive la sua life come / Phife dei Tribe
tra beatz e rhymes, ogni giorno in freestyle /
a chi ha visto Wildstyle e si e’ intrippato con gli spray
e con / Felton e Belton traccia gli outlines
disegna forme / sopra un muro enorme
lascia le sue orme / mentre la citta’dorme. /
Questa va a chi da’ colore a questo grigio
a chi sputa / parole sopra al micro all’infinito /
a chi fa cutting con i piatti
a chi e’ incline a usar puntine come mine e a devastare ai party.

E allora dillo tu
che non conta solo il look
puoi avere i Tim Boots ma se e’ scarso il tuo rhyme book /
cosa ti vanti? dici che canti?
non hai fatto un concerto e rappi da quando c’e’ Ashanti.
Per quanti / anni continuerai ?/
meno di 20 mesi e tornerai /
con la house dentro al tuo hi-fi, lo sai
ci vuole pathos / e mai farlo di rado
2 mesi che ti siedi e vedi ti hanno superato
più’ che un appassionato, più’ di un afictionados
e’ una scelta radicale come quella di un viados.
Eh si, e non c'è sindaco che regga
non puoi spegner la fotta di un writer che tegga
o di un b-boy che brecca
o di un deeejay che scratcha
e tantomeno quella di un c*zz* di mc con un microfono che reppa, tu
vieni a scovarci nelle jam
noi sputiamo barre sui beatbreaks fino all'eccesso come La Crème
vi diamo, ciò che cercate ma non ci chiedete paste
abbiamo la giusta cura per guarirvi come i Tasters qui,
si sgama subito chi è vero da chi è falso
il secondo è un ballerino di tip-tap che si esibisce scalzo.

E questa va a chi porta stima e mi rispetta
a chi mi dà retta
a chi per me non ha mai fretta
a chi apprezza
'sta merda fin da quella prima fottuta cassetta
e a chi la nostra nuova roba sempre con impazienza l'aspetta
a chi diffonde il suo calore
a chi mi dimostra amore
a chi mi fa sentir parte del suo cuore
a chi, percepisce l'energia se sto sul palco
e trova eccitante questo come sniffar borotalco
- e ne apprezza anche il messaggio come ai comizi di Malcolm
a chi, comprende l'alchimia del beat con le rime
a chi vive la doppia H in tutte le sue discipline, infine
a chi gira col ghetto blaster
agli street-team con figurine sopra le vetrine dei Blockbuster
ad ogni singola persona
che devasta con le tag cessi di scuole, autogrill e McDonald's
a chi, passa il suo tempo con la testa sull'inolium
achi vole lo street-name obbligatorio come l'antipolio
ai deejay, con le dita sui vinili
ai writer nei negozi al sabato a comprar tappini
a chi, va via di testa come me per tutto questo
per me l'hip Hop è il top e mi fa schifo tutto il resto.
