The Lounge (исполнитель: Asher Roth)
[Asher Roth] Yo, I got a question (What's that?) What's a rapper look like? Is he tan? Is he black? White? Is he blacked out, high on the crack pipe? Or more the cats that'll ride on the half-pipe? Don't want to act like I know about the rap type Cause matter of fact I can't grasp who rap likes With their cash do they stash for retirement? Or go for finer things like rides and diamonds and...? Another question (What's that?) How do they dress? Are they best cut threads or are they spend less I'm interested, it's caught my attention Yo, does everybody in rap get arrested? And with they , do they all have hoes? Or do some have a girl that they learn and they grow with? I like to know, what makes a rapper? It might be me, but I don't think it matters [Hook] What does he look like? Nobody knows? He's just a rapper in plain clothes When the curtain falls, after the show Where does he go? Nobody knows [Asher Roth] Yo, now it's your call, short, fat, or tall? What if he's a she and not a he at all? Or does a broad have to a be a at least? Or can it be decreased if she real up on the beat? And is she realer if she raised in the street? Or can they still feel her if she raised in CT? And if they spit do they have to have kids? Or can they have a mom, a dad, and little sis? And in the morning do they have to have grits? Or can they favorite breakfast be eggs Benedict? It makes me think, is there a rapping type? And if so, yo, what's a rapper like? And do they sell [bad word] or go to school? Cocaine or college, tell me what's [bad word] I'd like to know, what makes a rapper? It might be me, but I don't think it matters [Hook] What does he look like? Nobody knows? He's just a rapper in plain clothes When the curtain falls, after the show Where does he go? Nobody knows [Asher Roth] My name's Asher (Hi, Asher) And those who care to ask, I tell them I'm a rapper (rapper) But I don't look like it, not one bit I'm short and thin with some pale [bad word] skin (That's right) Got one girlfriend and I love her With two sisters, a father, and a mother I guess I'm different, like no other But you can't judge a book by it's cover I write about what I feel, see, live My boys like to say I'm the realist it gets Sometimes I feel like Boston gets Maybe flip the script on some ROY-G-BIV Whatever the mood, no matter what I listen to I always do me, never do you I'd like to know, what makes a rapper? It might be me, but I don't think it matters [Hook] What does he look like? Nobody knows? He's just a rapper in plain clothes (Johnny, I'm loving that piano) When the curtain falls, after the show Where does he go?
