“What’s Worse,” by Professor Rex
What's worse?
The brokers or the thugs?
The money or the drugs?
The johns or the pimps?
The jocks or the wimps?
The criminals or the cops?
The struggle or the drop?
The wait or the waiters?
The hate or the haters?
The night or the day?
The prelude or the fray?
The tension or the fight?
The shark or the bite?
The bee or the sting?
The red or the green?
The losing or the loss?
The bill collector or the boss?
You say it's all about you...for now
We're taking over with the...know how
You think you're high culture and we're...low brow
No matter how hard you try you can't stop...us now
I ain't got the power to say what's worse
All I got is this verse
All I got is this rhyme
All you got is that crime
All you got is that dime
All she's got is her son
All he's got is that gun
All we can do is run
All you can do is wound
All you can do is block
All we can do is hustle
All we can do is work
All you can do is stall
All you can do is fall
All we can do is win
All we can do is win
You say it's all about you...for now
We're taking over with the...know how
You think you're high culture and we're...low brow
No matter how hard you try you can't stop...us now
The beginning was a long time ago
The end is the result of my flow
The beginning was when you started dropping bombs
The end is when we stop acting dumb
The beginning was when you started slinging shit
The end is when we feel the shit hit
The beginning was when you picked up the guns
The end will be when we don't run
The beginning is our rights
The end is your wrongs
The beginning was you ignoring our lives
The end is us looking to the sky
The beginning was your rise to power
The end is us taking the power
The beginning is when you say it is
The end is when we say it is
You say it's all about you...for now
We're taking over with the...know how
You think you're high culture and we're...low brow
No matter how hard you try you can't stop...us now
