Starving Artist by Soup The Chemist Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2003

[Intro]
Move back from the stage! Watch out! Move back from the stage!

[Chorus]
Everything was cool until you heard this
(Man, are ya’ll ready for this?)
I represent the creative starving artist
(Yo, you ready for this?)
Yeah, everything was cool until you heard this
(Supreme thoughts being unlocked)
So start scratching those weak ducks off of your list
(Watch out) Now!

[Verse 1]
I’m very confident, believing that once you finish hearing this
You will know the difference between rappers and lyricists
I’m different on every disc, ask anyone that’s heard of Chris
They will confirm, my words are like sperm, bringing forth life
Because of that my career is a risk like rolling dice
I’m ready to start socking fools for talking smack
Cuz they don’t understand the sacrifice that I have paid
To be on stage with one arm raised
Representing the energy that I be putting into the flow
You should know just by my logo that I never flow abnormal
Material, that way of thinking is insane
Like standing butt naked in front of a landing plane
Or running up in the white house with two gats
Screaming at the top of your voice, “Long live Saddam Hussein!”
[Chorus]
Everything was cool until you heard this
(Soup the Chemist, young niggin)
I represent the creative starving artist
(Supreme thoughts man, what!)
Yeah, everything was cool until you heard this
(Don’t be sleeping on the emcee)
So start scratching those weak ducks off of your list
(Bye bye) Now!

[Verse 2]
I’m intimidating fools like cops with cocked Glocks
Possessing a trait of old school hip-hop
Meaning no video or talk show needed to survive
Soup built a rep off of ripping it live
For while I live I strive to carry out the Lord’s plan
Intake things that build up the inner man
Listen closely and you might catch it like a tan
I’m the born again barbarian
Borne against everything ya’ll fools used to hearing
Sharing from carrying the world on my shoulder like Atlas
Balance and maintain rotation, my kingdom meditation
When placed in front of homo sapiens, I’m right at home
Planting inspiration with aggressive vocal tones
Rhyming is my zone, so I’m here to win
So like Greg Louganis I’m diving in
Swimming in sounds underground like halibut
Marksman, because I produce hits
Man, my verses kick like a fetus in the womb
And it’s affecting nature just like a full moon
Bringing the youth out of you like that movie Cocoon
Have you waiting anxiously to peep some new tunes
Just like sixth graders be waiting on June
Yeah, and it don’t stop
Soup the Chemist bringing you that raw hip-hop
[Chorus]
Everything was cool until you heard this
(I told ya’ll fools, what!)
I represent the creative starving artist
(Supreme thoughts being unlocked)
Yeah, everything was cool until you heard this
(Soup the Chemist, young niggin)
So start scratching those weak ducks off of your list
(This is it, right here) Now! (Straight up)
