Best Lines/Quotes from Rap Songs (3 Viewers)

[JoeMK]

Post some of the best lines/punchlines u've heard in rap songs
Imma get you started....


jay-z:

i'm not a businessman,
i'm a business....man

Said she liked my necklace, started relaxin
now that's what the fuck i call a chain reaction

ma, cry me a river, build a bridge, and GET OVER IT!

I've got an appetite for destruction
but i scrape the plate

If you dont gimme heaven
i'll raise hell.. 'till its heaven

Niggas is hotheads and the bullets is heat seeking

This is food for thought, u do the dishes!

What you eat dont make me shit

Being broke is childish
and i'm quite grown

Couldn't sit down, big gun kept stickin' my pelvis
Shit, it was either that or be living with Elvis

Niggas wanna hijack the flyness

When the grass is cut, the snakes will show

Different toilet, SAME SHIT,
and i'm sick of explaing this...



NAS:

so i switched my motto, instead of saying "Fuck tomorrow"
That buck that bought a bottle could've struck the lotto

I got more kicks
than a baby in a mother's stomach

I Never sleep, cuz sleep is the cousin of death

Life is everyman's kingdom

We should take time and think,
the bombs and tanks makes mankind extinct


COMMON:

From now on, I'm a use self control
instead of birth control
cause 315 dollars ain't worth your soul

we've got arms
but won't reach for the skies

Our ignorance is in the same breath as our innocence,
subconsciously... seeking to find an impressionable mind to convince

I'm your worst nightmare squared,
that's times two for those who aren't mathematically aware


TALIB KWELI:

Aint no hesitation involved
a nation dissolves
as we sit back waiting to evolve

Those who trade in their freedom for protection deserve neither

Terrorists with etiquette
who vote and kill their president
their capacity for evil so evident, and prevalent



I'll add some later...

 

[hiphophooray123]

a jay line u forgot:



swear to everything
when i leave this earth
gonna be on both feet
never knees in the dirt - lucky me

T.I:


im either running from life
or im just waiting to die
im the supplier or fire if you chasing a high

- no more talk

people hate it when your better than them
they ain't hating, start worrying then.

- i cant quit

And even when my days were the bluest
I never ran from adversity, instead I ran to it
Fear ain't in the heart of me I learned just do it
You get courage in your fears right after you go through it
Now I come through in a Coupe on 22s
That ain't bad for a nigga who ain't even finish school
Don't get me wrong I never been a fool
I just put off graduating for a pair of tennis shoes
I used to use the beat to paint my pain
But nowadays man I can't complain

- goodlife feat common

Man I’m prayin for help
While I’m lookin at the life I left
It’s kinda hard not to hate myself
But quiet is kept right or wrong
It’s just the way I felt
I might be better of prayin for death
On my knees I knelt
Still trying to find a way to accept
It ain’t a way I can help nobody
Till I save myself
Technically I’m still a slave myself
I gotta climb out the grave myself
Man I played myself

- praying for help

Started interactin wit fiends at the age of 13
Now my momma findin rocks in my socks, glocks in my toy box
Like damn, why do trouble come to me like this
But on the real, it ain't even have to be like this (fuck)

- still aint forgave myself

At 14 man, thought I knew everything
I'm slangin slabs, trappin hard, movin heavy Cain
I bought an '85 cutlass on some dane-a-danes
Now I'm the shit, huh, the motor blew in 30 days

- still aint forgave myself

Pleasure and pain in every aspect of the game
I'm the answer to yo prayers if you prayin' for change
So, I dare you compare us and say we the same
When I'm, climbin' the ladder, they stuck in the same
Mindframe, they accomplishments are nothin' to gain

- be easy

I give the niggaz what they came to see
A reflection of one self where they aim to be

- be easy

?? kissin' ass when I came to leave
Set the standard for Atlanta, rearranged the lead


- be easy


To play me, ba-by, hey
he gone need a track from God featuring Jesus or Jay-Z

- im serious

I'm gettin sick and tired off these phony rendetions
Wonder why I don't consider them no competition
There's no vision - lil' ambition
How I feel about these niggas, and my word, are ya kiddin?

- im serious

Some niggas wonder what my goal is
They think it's goin gold havin hoes sweatin me
Fuck that, I'm in it for the longevity
Picture me as one of the greatest that'll ever be
Compare me to, Tupac, B.I.G., and Jay-Z
Work with legends like, Organo, I.Z., and J.D.
Neptunes, they even flow on one of Dre's beats
Fly to Miami, chill with Luke and we can trade freaks
I freak shows, just peep hoes under shade trees
Huh, but KP say just keep it top-notch
And make sure that the club is jumpin like it's hop-scotch

- im serious

I came, I saw, I conquered (ok) with no big names
No fame, no celebrity sponsors
Just the game and a flow that was bonkers
Nigga front if ya wanna, I dead niggas like the bitches from "Monster"
Now you been told, so don't say I ain't warn ya and don't
Let it alarm ya, when ya leaking, and the reapers upon ya


- the king


King of the place, called home of the bass
He emerged at the trap, from the zone of the flake
Caught a case, and he still keep a chrome on his waist
For the haters in the face, gettin' thrown in the waist
Like a pussy nigga named Lil' Wesley, tryna test me
On your best behavior what your faggot ass best be
Choose words carefully when you address me
You ain't gotta like me, but you're gonna respect me
(Or else) or else you get wet like a jigsknee
Take ten of these and live, that'll impress me

- 99 problems but lil flip aint one

Nigga, lyrically I'll murk you
Physically I'll hurt you
You ain't never ran the streets, you had a curfew

- 99 problems but lil flip aint one

Daddy shoulda got some head, wish he woulda worn rubber
But he didn't, so now I guess the world gotta suffer
You the kind of wanksta, gangsta's done had enough of
So imma take pride when I ride through and bust you
Tip will be the reason for the saddest day your momma seen
When I let this case slay a nigga like the Drama King

- 99 problems but lil flip aint one

Keep my name out ya mouth I done said it before
Cause all them games I ain't bout, tell whoeva you know
Before I pull this thang out, aim it dead at ya throat
Or bring the rifle out the house and put ya head in the scope

- jackin for beats 2004

If you don't want no beef nigga don't act rude
I got a 4-4 fo' yo attitude
We can... Talk or shoot it out whateva you chose
Have me back in the county blues on the TV news
Only... two rules when you walk in my shoes
1 take no shit number 2 don't lose

- jackin for beats 2004

Think of me as John Gotti wit a Phd
Or either Martin Luther King wit a G.A.T
I'm ridin clean, paint gleamin blowin T.H.C
And for that reason hataz wanna alieviate me
But I forgive 'em cause I know it ain't the he hate me
He just hate the situation hate that he ain't me
OGs say alot of them in me they see
Cause I'm a scholar no diploma no GED

- jackin for beats 2004

You was on the low discussin a G
When urban legend drop we'll see what the discussion'll be

- jackin for beats 2004

Rapper Anthem:
I'm a crack headed low-life, I teach your kids to do weed.
I just talk to a jungle beat and its all for the greed.

 

[hiphophooray123]

awesome we have a close minded loser in here that obviously judges hip hop from the crap he hears on the radio and has never heard of the roots, common, or even bothered to read the lines in the first post. Congradulations fuckwit, i bet you think we don't know what rock is either and that we just like hip hop.

 

[IronMaiden]

Says the guy who makes posts about sucking dick.

 

[hiphophooray123]

and what does that have to do with anything? because i made that post does it make my opinions on music invalid? What kind of logic do you use? none?

 

[IronMaiden]

Your opinion and criticism mean nothing to me, is what i'm saying.

My opinion should mean nothing to you, so if I think rappers are junkies so be it. If you think they're gods, so be it.

 

[hiphophooray123]

i don't think they're gods at all, but i will always attack misinformed and ignorant opinions because they suck.

 

[IronMaiden]

Change my mind then. Or should I say, prove your point instead of criticising mine.

 

[hiphophooray123]

the roots
common
a tribe called quest
OutKast - 13th floor/growing old
OutKast - phobia
the pharcyde

T.I - be better than me

from Many Men:

Now these pussy niggas putting money on my head
Go on and get your refund motherfucker, I ain't dead
I'm the diamond in the dirt, that ain't been found
I'm the underground king and I ain't been crowned
When I rhyme, something special happen every time
I'm the greatest, something like Ali in his prime

i dont know why but i love this verse from "Talk About Me" where he raps from the perspective of his son

I love 50 Cent, that's my dad
But even my mom talk about him bad
She says since he blew up, he changed for sure
He's really fascinated with these fancy hoes
I don't know why but there personalities collide
And my dad will swallow blood before he swallows his pride
You know the kids in my class they be sayin he's crazy
They just like him cause he rollin with Dr. Dre and Shady

 

[Dr_Doom]

When the grass is cut, the snakes will show

rofl! Good post Joe!

 

[redruM]

Your firearms are too short to box with God - Talib Kweli (Thieves In The Night by Talib Kweli & Mos Def)

Now it's been said a grown man ain't supossed to cry
So why are there tears inside my eyes? - Pharoahe Monch (Maintain by Organized Konfusion)

My man Gribbles battling a debilitating disease
He said you see a brother like me is willing to fight
And everytime I question death my only answer is life - The Last Emperor (One Life by The Last Emperor)

Why is it that people got to struggle to survive
Why is it that nine to five is harder to get in ninety-five - Smoothe Da Hustler (Food For Thoughts by Smoothe Da Hustler)

 

[redruM]

Black like the cheeks that are roadways for tears
that leave black faces well traveled with years
Black like assassin crosshairs
Blacker than my granddaddy armchair
He never really got no time to chill there
Cause this life is warfare

mos def - black star - astrology

 

[YBK]

Tupac

"A coward dies a thousand deaths... a soldier dies but once"

“since we all came from a women, got our name from a women, and our game from a women. I wonder why we take from women, why we rape our women, do we hate our women? I think its time we killed for our women, be real to our women, try to heal our women, cus if we dont we'll have a race of babies that will hate the ladies, who make the babies. And since a man can't make one he has no right to tell a women when and where to create one”

“Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight
Why am I trying to see, when there aint nothing in sight
Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try
Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die?
someone tell me why”

 

[DigitalFortress]

KanYe:

God show me the way because the Devil try to break me down
The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
And I don't think there’s nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
I wanna to talk to God but I'm afraid cause we ain't spoke in so long

Oh to the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers even the strippers,
(Jesus walks with them)
To the victims of welfare feel we living in hell here, hell yea
(Jesus walks with them)
Now hear Ye hear me wanna see Thee more clearly
I know He hear me when my feet get weary

J Ivy:
Determination, dedication, motivation
I'm talking to you and my many inspirations
When I say I can't let you or myself down
If I were on the highest cliff on the highest riff
And you slipped off the side and clinched on to your life in my grip
I would never, ever, let you down
And when these words are found
Let it be known that god's penmanship has been signed in the language called love
Thats why my breath is felt by the deaf
And why my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind
I, too, dream in color, and in rhyme
So I guess I'm one of a kind in a full house
Cause whenever I open my heart, my soul, or my mouth
A touch of
God.
Rains.
Out.
