Lyrics

Barry Beats on the drums
a.k.a. Si Spex
Shout out to UK hip-hop

For my stuffy intellectuals, I go classical
For my rebel country boys, I go badassical
It may sound like I'm playin' but my flow is tactical
Practicality's the purpose of the topper on my clavicle
A magical idea floated through me today
about how my ancestors interfaced with the Fae
The Little People or the fairy folk, call 'em what you may
but the wrong name might get you ganked. They don't play
Anyway, I was thinkin' that our musical styles
emerged out of how our people felt the call of the wild
Groups of three were originally how we would file
facts about the world. We had dialectical trials
That may not mean much to millennials and such
who don't ever go outside and never tried double dutch
where two homies gotta synchronize in a time clutch
while you step into the rhythm and feel the magic touch

I wanna reconcile my genetic code
with the way I feel about people deep in my soul
so for my head and my heart to feel whole
I run hip-hop in compatibility mode

In Mumbai City where the bantais are bumpin' Ganesh
the struggle on the streets got 'em rhymin' 90s fresh
I'd like to hop over there and drop in on a sesh
so don't be hatin' on my gully boys for goin' profesh
We all guests in the hip-hop game except the core crew:
Kool Herc, Bambaataa, Flash and the ignored few
that first learned that they could tap into the force to
bring life to their hoods and make wizards out of bored dudes
I don't forget the ladies. Sorry for waitin
cuz I feel without a Lil' Kim, we wouldn't get Shady
the Sadie-Hawkins style of romance is seemingly fading
Ya got as much a right as me to rap about masturbating
I'm paying as much homage as I can, cuz the plan
is to demonstrate that I'm a humble fan
of the stand-up way hip-hop treats fam. It ain't a sham
You just gotta demonstrate that you're sick of being bland

Will Harmon, ladies and gentlemen

I wanna reconcile my genetic code
with the way I feel about people deep in my soul
so for my head and my heart to feel whole
I run hip-hop in compatibility mode
