Mike: 
Yeah, go ahead and uh, cue the special effects… 
Yeah! 
Mike: 
Man, I love this rap game 
Mainly cause it’s cool to add a little 
Spice to the life you’ve been through 
Everyone exaggerates a tiny little bit 
Make this [bad word] sound more gangster than it really is 
You can’t appear weak / man / we wanna hear street 
We wanna hear you spit your thug over this here beat 
Don’t take it as sarcastic / I can’t get enough 
I’m telling you 
You can call my bluff / if it’s not rough 
Then I don’t really need it 
I’m not even ashamed 
I got too much reality that’s filling up my brain 
So sell me on the product / I’m addicted to the game 
Suck it up like a cigarette / light it up man 
 [bad word]  
It’s just like a cigarette / it’s something that I do 
Once in a while but between me and you 
It’s just like a cigarette / nobody’s really fooled 
I don’t want the [bad word] I wanna feel [bad word] cool 

Mike: 
Lemme tell you something that I realized tonight 
My hip hop radio’s like Marlboro Light 
They’re both selling stories 
And they sound about the same 
Cigarettes say they’re safe 
Rapper claim they really bang 
We don’t care if it’s [bad word] when we lay the money down 
We don’t believe the words 
We just love the way they sound 
They’re acting we’re like idiots / they’re lying to out face 
Maybe we are idiots / we buy it anyway  [bad word] out to get the rapper’s next CD / just 
Sucking up the guns, [bad word] and misogyny 
The same way that I suck up all the stories when I breathe 
That little bit of death supposedly cancer free 
And everything they say’s got the [bad word] twisted up but 
But twisted up’s what I want / man 
I can’t get enough 
‘Cause even though we know it’s all just a big bluff 
We just light another up / what 
We don’t give a [bad word] 

It’s just like a cigarette / it’s something that I do 
Once in a while but between me and you 
It’s just like a cigarette / nobody’s really fooled 
I don’t want the [bad word] I wanna feel [bad word] cool 
It’s just like a cigarette / it’s something that I do 
Over and over but between me and you 
It’s just like a cigarette / nobody’s really fooled 
I don’t want the [bad word] I wanna feel [bad word] cool 

Mike: 
Man / listen to my words / listen for while 
Lip service radio / don’t touch the dial 
If you’re in the car / turn up the track / man 
Give your whole neighborhood some second hand rap / hey 
Matter of fact / listen for a while 
Lip service radio / don’t touch the dial 
If you’re in the car man turn up the track and 
Give your whole neighborhood some second hand rap 

It’s just like a cigarette / it’s something that I do 
Once in a while but between me and you 
It’s just like a cigarette / nobody’s really fooled 
I don’t want the [bad word] I wanna feel [bad word] cool 
It’s just like a cigarette / it’s something that I do 
Over and over but between me and you 
It’s just like a cigarette / nobody’s really fooled 
I don’t want the [bad word] I wanna feel [bad word] cool
