[00:38.19] |
rice rockets, pigeon hole |
[00:39.21] |
We pushed in kicked in, pitiful |
[00:40.61] |
What don't kill you, its pivotal |
[00:42.12] |
That elephant in that awkward house |
[00:43.58] |
They reticent to talk about |
[00:45.10] |
these slanted eyes, those random lies |
[00:46.61] |
Media's feeding us and walking out |
[00:48.28] |
He said I rap dope, but look like William Hung |
[00:51.47] |
that made me laugh yo what a joke, really was a silly one |
[00:54.48] |
But will he hung I mean hang without a username |
[00:57.39] |
or talking to the hand of a million fans in the middle of a pavilion? |
[01:00.41] |
An Asian man with a mic in hand this time not math subtracting |
[01:03.81] |
accent having, fashion lacking, forget computer hacking |
[01:06.43] |
My future passion is lasting, rapping, make music classic |
[01:09.50] |

Before I got sick on the mic I remember |
[01:38.44] |
I used to get picked on like a damn fender |
[01:41.38] |
A skinny Asian boy has many names usually |
[01:44.64] |
chink, fob, gook and of course Bruce Lee |
[01:48.06] |
But on a loose leaf I could unlearn all of that |
[01:50.97] |
So I wrote profusely and it turned into rap |
[01:53.78] |
Started burning on tracks and I caught flames |
[01:56.84] |
Now Epik High is the shit when you drop names |
[01:59.83] |
like an unsigned hero making his way |
[02:03.18] |
I punched and kicked all labels away |
[02:05.91] |
Here to stay, hot like illegal |
[02:09.14] |
Cross a dating game and bungee, I drop hot singles |
[02:12.58] |

It's the year of the tiger, hands up! |
[02:39.18] |
For the one who paved the way, brother JK |
[02:42.44] |
Yeah we're all Drunken, only bangers are bumping |
[02:45.36] |
From far east to the world keep their fists pumping |
[02:48.81] |
This is the new new school we are the next shit |
[02:52.03] |
Resurrection of Bruce you fools are excess |
[02:55.22] |
Asiatic, ill-matic, with no static |
[02:57.86] |
My voice is clear it grips your ears just like it's magic |
[03:00.98] |
and I thought that we overcame |
[03:02.09] |
Some still silly really talk this way |
[03:03.43] |
Do I really have to double up and |
[03:03.82] |
pull out the tricks of yesterday just to display? |
[03:06.67] |
That it's not a game we play |
[03:08.19] |
to prove that true is how we rap |
[03:09.60] |
I make this music cause I'm f***n good at that. |

It was the year 2000, no Asian kids around |
[03:39.57] |
None of them ripping microphones, just timid sitting down |
[03:42.51] |
Along came a hero, his name was DFD |
[03:45.19] |
At the age of 14 he was killing the LA scene |
[03:48.14] |
He hit the road doing shows, and met cats around the globe |
[03:51.23] |
Kero in the bay, Blo and MYK at Map the Soul, |
[03:54.38] |
He later found that there were more of them, |
[03:56.04] |
brothers of same origin, they saw his face on YouTube and emails started pouring in |
[04:00.80] |
They exist, Asian kids, shredding rappers into bacon bits |
[04:03.72] |
Another chapter in the history books, but he knows that the next page is his |
[04:06.68] |
The pages turn, he waits his turn, just as he thought there he is |
[04:09.65] |
Chapter 2 now let's begin, the new face of Asian-Americans |
[05:16.92] |
Chinese, Korean kids throw your hands up if you're feeling this |
[05:21.22] |
Chinks, gooks, nips, put your fists up if you're tired of it! |
[05:25.19] |
