The Hype

I love it when people are complimented on something they're wearing And they accept the compliment as if it was about them Nice tie why thank you thank you very much The compliment is for the tie it's not for you But we take it and that's kind of the job of clothes To get compliments for us Because it's very hard to get compliments based on your human qualities Right lets face it no matter how nice a person you are Nobody's gunna come say hey nice person It's much easier to be a bastard and just try and match the colors of it Yea testing testing one two Very happy to be here Just wanna talk about a couple things today It's a term we like to use or they like to use To talk about people like them You'll soon understand Anyways don't believe the hype Here we go On behalf of the half witted I'll be have with it At times cuz the hole in me is that gifted It makes the lesser knowing jealous The message I've been sending them at times is irrelevant Check yet to many I’m never unliked I'm that phat any track give em cellulite You dark minded confused I can sell you light Because I sell my life in every letter that I right Streetwear's like rap see a lot of hype And hype kills thank Ben for that insight 100's on my mind why is 100's on my mind Thinking how Bobby get em buying every time Is the hype to some to others it something They can say I got it and it's nearly one of one Still I wonder I be in Supreme And wore it on the cover of the URB And through all my achievements you would prolly think When I'm buying gear them niggas at least speak to me But let me lead you to the reason they don't need to Cuz some niggas go outside there and sleep for it hype I'll let you niggas call it Fuck if they don't speak I appreciate the quality No need to quarrel for the lack of the not received Cuz I'll be back for the newest release it's called hype DJ break loop I hear the Mecca all the time Hoping that the 4 line fall right in line For all who ain't buying it because They wasn't in more stores Ironically you are what you call Hype beasts That might be the reason OG niggas started switching to adidas Resellers yea selling is a hustle Can't sass none who among em But I can still lavicate kick the other Cuz I do love it I hate to see mediocre kicks getting doubled In the price precisely why I don't buy No SB's after year 05 Those Dino's sue me I lied I paid too much for em fuck it ain't proud But the hype hype no man can avoid this We fall victim to it more or less What's coming out I need the appointment I need the applause of the orges my garments perform for em So far I been flawless I been out Like them all overprint garments that's on them hypes Directed like Williams perfected my fit til I'm feeling like millions Shades are a billion Dollar edition The lights on the ceiling are off but still them Cover my face in the shade A case of the Spade In case she occasions with Jay hype And I don't even like the flavor But took it to the face they appreciate my taste hype And that's word to my tastebuds man some of that champagne shit is nasty Give me a shot of that Imperials and Remy or something I don't know about all that champagne That Rozay shit it's the hype Yuck This one's for you Mr Music man listen to me It go hype yea That's right Mr Music man You passed up now you feeling bad You passed up wasn't feeling that You say I lack that So you ain't like that nah You ain't write back He's just another muthafucka with a backpack That's DC shit we can't grab that He can't gravitate over the masses He likes a song with a snap or a hand clap He don't got a dance thus he don't have a chance I got some heat in my latest plan We found a cat with a record he live out in Texas His myspace is over seven digits The radio play him every second The second that I see him we gon get em And turn this rap singer to a ringer As far as Wale fuck his people He prolly die out by the course of next season What the fuck is a dig dug I really don't get it Plus he is not impressive on them little BDS's So I ain't gon stress it it's nothing but a buzz A little bit of Regional nobody give a fuck A year later nothing but love Went from something they ain't love to something they could afford Now fill the void This for all those who lack faith in me But now see it's real and wanna create with me You cheap motherfuckas bow out out gracefully You gon' need some HGH to race with me They say the tasteless boast every time they made it Well I ain't made shit spits I don't taste shit So say this no Craig let me say this Fuck all you hypes from the labels in the labels hype And I'm gone Before I go I just wanna say one more thing When I grow up I wanna be like Reggie Bye --- The Hype - Wale
