HIGHTYDE
I'm just being real with myself
what are you trying to (be)
Beat me and we'll call this defeat
Well, then I guess that you should

HIGHTYDE
Be the best that you can be, I'm thankful for Sandy
the only single fan that could stand me
as these rap beats blast in fast, ferociously
dope emcees with halitosis need
tic-tacs to impact plus the fact is
tax rap and rap fans will tap faxes
Christ slapped an Amtrak off it's axis
then sat down to help me write this tracklist
I'm like Pam Anderson as an actress
I get laughed at but not laughed with
and get slept on more than bed matresses
to keep fans damper than wet napkins it's
like you just don't care, flair I'm rocking with
rhyme words and tight skirts like Erin Brochovich
"You sound like Slim!" I get alot of this
hippo-pantamus, Hip-hop anonymous-sssah!

HIGHTYDE
(Be) around when the time is right
when you rap make sure that your rhyme is tight
what-ever you be, be the best there is
if you a father be there for your kids
be a man, just, be yourself kid, and you'll be straight
walk the path whether it be love or it be hate
don't let them fool you, don't let em song and dance you
do it now, this could be your last chance to

HIGHTYDE
Be a someone, tell me, where'd you get the gun from?
(gunshot) you're dumb son!
I'll talk about drugs, yup I've done some
and Christian records, I have one done
but thugs just miss this, flipping the tongue, is this
kid missing a lung? It's so amazing, it's
like Christ is who you should be praising
the world's a maze and, you're the raisin
so raise up hands and command your love to
the one-band-man, grand man above you
I must've let the bell toll to reprimand
my own CD like cell phones in Bethleham
and hate fears me, I have an estate in this state
the Great Lakes state next to Lake Eerie
Radio assured me
they'd take and start my tape at 8:00 sharp and now it's 8:30

HIGHTYDE
(Be) around when the time is right
when you rap make sure that your rhyme is tight
what- ever you be, be the best there is
if you a father be there for your kids
be a man, just, be yourself kid, and you'll be straight
walk the path whether it be love or it be hate
don't let them fool you, don't let em song and dance you
do it now, this could be your last chance to

HIGHTYDE
(Be) Quite successful and write legible
or critics will eat you like ripe vegetables
decibals, welcome to Christ's festival
where all gets bared like
(yo, I'm not even gonna say that part!)
An illusion, don't make a mockery
take hip-hop and mix in hypocrasy
and get sliced bread with jam and jelly on it
I tried to tell you, the makav-alien is
Antwan, see me place my hands on these
rappers that have less fans than zombies
fans that want me
fans that can't stand a man that raps like a zombie
plus his mommy is up front clapping with a camera
you feel real bad plus your fans laugh at you
you want to quit and now you're having to
just thank God you're still an amateur

HIGHTYDE
(Be) around when the time is right
when you rap make sure that your rhyme is tight
what- ever you be, be the best there is
if you a father be there for your kids
be a man, just, be yourself kid, and you'll be straight
walk the path whether it be love or it be hate
don't let them fool you, don't let em song and dance you
do it now, this could be your last chance to...
