"Cigarettes"
I just like dope lyrics. This song makes too much sense, considering lately I've been waging WAR against dumbed down rap music. Fort Minor decided to take a sarcastic spin to it that makes more sense to people than they'll willingly admit.Check it out...

Fort Minor - "Cigarettes" (YOUTUBE THIS. TRUST ME)

Man I love this rap game, mainly cuz its cool /
To add a little spice to the life you've been through /
Everyone exaggerates a tiny little bit /
Make that s**t sound more gangsta than it really is /
You can't appear weak man "We wanna hear street" /
"We wanna hear you spit your thug over this here beat" /
Don't take it as sarcastic, I can't get enough /
I'm telling you, You can call my bluff If it's not rough /
Then I really don't need it...I'm not even ashamed /
I got too much reality that's filling up my brain /
So sell me on that product, I'm addicted to the game /
Suck it up like a cigarette, light it up man...

It's just like a cigarette, it's something that I do /
Once in a while, but between me and you /
It's just like a cigarette, nobody's really fooled /
I dont want the truth, I wanna feel f**kin' cool /

Let me tell you something that I realized tonight /
My hip hop radio's like Marlboro Light /
They're both selling stories and they sound about the same /
Cigarettes say they're safe, rappers claim they really bang /
We don't care if it's true when we lay the money down /
We don't believe the words, we just love the way they sound /
They're acting like we're idiots, they're lying to our face /
Maybe we are idiots, we buy it anyway / (CHURCH)
I'm runnin' out to get the next rapper's CD /
Just suckin' up the guns, drugs, and misogyny /
The same way that I suck up all the stories /
When I breathe that little bit of death supposedly cancer-free /
and Everything they say got the truth twisted up /
But twisted up's what I want man, I can't get enough /
Cuz even though we know it's all just a big bluff /
We just light another up, what, We don't give a f**k!!!

It's just like a cigarette, it's something that I do /
Once in a while but between me and you /
It's just like a cigarette, nobody's really fooled /
I don't want the truth, I wanna feel f**king cool...

My Response...

Called me out, Ok fine, been there,done that /
Sometimes I like the ignorant gunclaps /
That echo through my speakers...but only if the kicks, claps /
and the bass make it knock, i'll tolerate the dumb raps... /
How sad is that? Words can't describe...
How dumb I feel whenever I look in my mother's eye /
And when she asks me what have I been listening to /
I have to change subjects in order to avoid a lie... /

Hmm...

I'll finish my response later...don't let me forget... Good night...
