Lyrics:

Get back in the Dark, you stab me in the back

You're like the Nasdaq, your place is at the back

Of the bus coz there is something you'll never be able to find out

You think your verse hits like an arrow, dreaming being the king of the Soho

But you hate and you're fake and your breast, turns quick like a fucking "mégalo"

Your flow is so low, your mind is so closed, wherever you go, you think you're a pro

You've just been a pseudo, like one week ago

You raised your ego, it was your first show

And then, the next day you wish not gonna be the same

Maintaining a bottomless ignorance

My pain is as deep as the big hole in your brain

What remains? Nothing, but everything you should feel ashamed

You stand here, but blame anyone who dresses not the same

You wonder why your style is not yet a billboard worldwide

Even little brother said: "it'd fit better to a cow than I"

You loose, the few of soul when you get to the interview

You are screwed, when you showed, lyrics were not written by your

Left-hand, right-hand, anyway you never learned how to use your hands

Pulling at its peak the ignorance, that's in your head

You build a character of a wealthy criminal

Without style, you don't reach Al Pacino's role

Your aims and hope are just led by the Hype

You get some good sleep with it every night

I wonder why Hip Hop doesn't rhyme with hope

I wonder why it's always linked to this fucking dope

Your aims and hope are just led by the Hype

You look for input where there is no light

Since we said that the way you're dressed

Hasn't got better since you were eight

I would not use one of my shirts to be my carpet

Now, I understand why your name doesn't rhyme with taste

I guess you need to take a breath

Or you gonna receive stuff to your face

You love to make some video clips and again do pretend to be in the list

Of genius singers that we can call real artists

But a real one does not pay a woman to take part in movies

He respects the gender and don't even think wearing fake jewellerys

Never gonna be the one you think

Since expenses are more than what gets in

You wanna buy a nice car, an Aston Martin,

You "pimp your ride" with a shitty green

But you didn't know how to read your balance sheet,

Would have been an appropriate thing...

So you headed to the bank, with plenty of crank

Looking at the guy that tells ya : "Man, money is all spent"

And the rap idol asks for money to the bank

And the bank says, "Yes... Well... No you can't. With your budget, you better buy a pant...

how can anyone say these guys have sold out.....They are singing about why hip hop has died 5 years ago. Speaking mainstream of course. Theres still plenty out there. i still love LOC's Clear Channel song cause I cant find one good radio station anymore :(

yea its not just a little bit more mainstream than the old stuff^^ but when u dont use it as reference to comparison with the new songs, i think they re still very good. For you the first song "beware of the plaque" should to be the best of the new album. last part is the best ;)

The lyrics to From the swallow to the bottle were far better than this. i'm so disappointed with the lyrics from the new album. and not because of the bad english, the message can still be discerned on most of their debut tracks. i absolutely love beng beng but i'm so sad that they've started falling off so soon.
