Underground Success Story

from The Bangologist by Side Effect x Stress the White Boy

/

lyrics

Verse 1:

Yo I'm back the most prominent and dominant
my flow is milk, but most black folk are lactose intolerant
cats getting lazy, what happened?
nowadays the production be better than half the dudes rappin'
but here that's non-applicable
me and Stress is cool like dat, it's like we came off the planet that's digable
every time I go away I reappear
I'm tryna have a Cool J career stretching over twenty years
I know that sound kinda silly
cats say you really wanna make it in this game? then you gotta leave Philly
if the opportunity present itself I might choose it
right now it's like I'm moving slower than Screw music
I'm tryna move fast like Hyphy
and Stress make the blues Mo Better than Spike Lee
don't indict me, I ain't commit no vicious crime
the only thing I steal is a sistas mind, get yours cause I'm getting mine

Hook:

and I can tell you why the rest corny
but let me learn you bout this underground success story
little black bul from the hood made good
straight outta Oak Lane, what's his name? Terrence Wood
they say yeah that bul damn good
breath of fresh air do his thing I knew the man would
and I can tell you why the rest bore me
but let me learn you bout this underground success story


Verse 2:

I'm networking in the street and then I polly on the internet
my music hittin' countries that I probably haven't been to yet
and every ghetto is the same, the only thing that might change
here and there be the gear and the slang
but the rest it just repeats, the same suit is re-creased
peeps in the street, like what's up with your new release?
I sing the same song with different producers
they say a ounce of performance is worth a ton of excuses
but ain't tryna live grimy like a crook or villain
and have'em do me like I'm Tookie Williams
I seek redemption getting mentioned in the same vein as some Philly's illest
of course you got the haters but the rest really feel us
if the, block is hot then the ave is electric like Eddie Grant
I skip on your shit like a DJ with a heavy hand, and make the rest retire
I'm like a caveman the way I'm on this quest for fire

Hook:

and I can tell you why the rest corny
but let me learn you bout this underground success story
little black bul from the hood made good
straight outta Oak Lane, what's his name? Terrence Wood
they say yeah that bul damn good
breath of fresh air do his thing I knew the man would
and I can tell you why the rest bore me
but let me learn you bout this underground success story

Verse 3:

I'm tryna leave my impact in the future
so all you gotta do is say my first name like Luther
or Stevie, or Marvin, and you know who I'm talking 'bout
cats say your name, but half the crowd start walking out
they call me arrogant cause I speak with surety
nah that's just my confidence bumping 'gainst your insecurity
deal with it dog, I'm too beaucoup
you the smartest one up in your clique you need a new crew
see I come up in the booth a little tipsy off the hooch
bullying these rappers like Arnold and the Gooch
you can't handle, don't collide with Side's ammo
watch me rock your whole show off a iPod Nano
I start to get iller, with the strength of a retarded gorilla
knocking down all your arches and pillars
Side Effect see I was born raw
I'm here to shut down this industry quicker than a Aids infested porn star
