Recommended: Importance of work

'Cause sometimes you just feel tired,
Feel weak, and when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up.
But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength
And just pull that shit out of you and get that motivation to not give up
And not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse.

[B/W Intro:]
Yo left, yo left, yo left right left
Yo left, yo left, yo left right left
Yo left, yo left, yo left right left
Yo left, yo left, yo left right left

[Verse #1:]
Till I collapse I’m spilling these raps long as you feel 'em
Till the day that I drop you'll never say that I'm not killing them
'Cause when I am not then I'ma stop penning 'em
And I am not hip-hop and I’m just not Eminem.
Subliminal thoughts when I'm stop sending them women are caught in webs spin and hauk venom
Adrenaline shots of penicillin could not get the illing to stop.
Amoxacilin is just not real enough.
The criminal cop killing hip-hop filling a minimal swap to cop millions of Pac listeners.
You're coming with me, feel it or not you’re gonna fear it like I showed y...

  • Th Future of Hip Hop

    1612 Words  | 4 Pages

    In Total Chaos, Jeff Chang references Harry Allen, a hip hop critic and self-proclaimed hip hop activist. Harry Allen compares the hip hop movement to the Big Bang and poses this complex question: “whether hip-hop is, in fact a closed universe-bound to recollapse, ultimately, in a fireball akin to its birth-or an open one, destined to expand forever, until it is cold, dark, and dead” (9). An often heard phase, “hip hop is dead,” refers to the high occurrence of gangster rap in mainstream hip hop. Today’s hip hop regularly features black youths posturing as rich thugs and indulging in expensive merchandise. The “hip hop is dead” perspective is based on the belief that hip hop was destined to become the model of youth resistance and social change. However, its political ambitions have yet to emerge, thus giving rise to hip hops’ criticisms. This essay will examine the past and present of hip hop in o...

    This song doesn’t only deal with sensory description; it also deals with figurative language. One example of figurative language is used by Ludacris when he says "I don't know, but you gotta stop trippin." The word trippin doesn’t actually mean tripping and falling, it means you have to stop worrying. He uses this word to relate to the different kind of people who listen to this song. Ludacris also uses figurative language when he says "Used to play back then, now you all grown-up like Rudy Huxtable." This figurative language is a simile, because he is comparing growing up to Rudy Huxtable, using the word like.

  • Quitters Do Not Quit Research Paper

    541 Words  | 2 Pages

    I believe in the power of not quiting because not quitting shows alot about a person. I’ve been told since I can remember from my father not to start something that you are not gonna finish. “Quitters never make it anywhere” is what I get told at least five times in a week. It’s just something that’s important to me and always will be on and off the football field. Your mind will tell you that you can’t go on and tell you to quit, but there is always something else to accomplish, always something you can finesse and make greater. If you ever quit something when things get tough or you just don’t feel like doing something, then in the back of your head you will have that reoccuring thought , “Well it ain’t that big of a deal, I’ll just leave it, it’s fine won’t hurt anything.” Really that’s when it all starts and everything becomes “okay” when really that’s when you need to make the extra effort, run the extra sprint.

Yet at times there is not a change an individual could have been done to change the outcome of their failure. The feeling of failure is an emotion everyone feels. Occasionally after a failure people become intimidated to get up and try again. A British political Winston Churchill believes “success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” That quote was right after he was voted out of office in the summer of 1945 after World War II. His strength to keep going even after that big of a letdown is an example of never giving up. The ability to get up is the hardest part to achieve, what discourages people
