I understand now dad don't smoke that that weed
and don't let a freaky bytch trap me
Don't let them boys on the block, cock back that glock and rock me to sleep
it's the last thing I need trying to succeed
In these streets trying to make it out these fukking dirty hoods
trying to make it to the top where everything is supposed to be good
Kick it with the white boys, they sniffin white boy
and I know from my hood that shyt aint really nice boy
so im kickin it solo, got a call on my phone
heard my nikka just got rode on
Now everybody crying because everybody dying
denying it was a problem until they hear the mommas crying
rarely hear the sirens pigs dont give a fukk
another day, another dolla,r another motherfukking buck
The life that we live is all fukked up
the girl just turn sixteen the whole hood got sucked up
by this young duck, fukk school roll the kush up
fukk a scholarship, they all want big butts
fukked 2 nikkas today but say she's not a slut
how the fukk is that even possible, another fukking obstacle
Life melting away like a popsicle in the oven
loving nothing but the something that really amounts to nothing
but it's all she got, she gotta make it count
laying on the couch and she smoked a half ounce
then she passed out, now she thirty years old
still in the club with them dirty ass clothes on
could of been a doctor if she was living proper
walked out the club then her baby daddy popped her
life fast and die young , hope you have fun on this earth
you're supposed to give claim turf, give birth and prosper
snakes out to get ya before u know it bit ya
on the heel, it's out to kill in this cold world
like I told ol girl, keep ur past clean until you get those gold pearls you desire
tryna keep my head cool but I dance with fire
ignite ya, why waste time tryna fight ya?
excite ya like i'm only tryna to one night ya
live with the shadows cuz they tryna to indict ya
I know they never loved ya because they never really liked
Your so called friends will roll they eyes at the sight of
New cars, fashion and fame
it's the game that we play that decides who's really here to stay
and as we kneel and pray, everything remains ok,
Well that's what the pastor say

More complexed than Lose yourself if you ask me :yeshrug:

I think Em has plenty of more complex songs, "The Way I Am" or "Sing for the Moment" come to mind immediately.

But what separates or separated "Lose Yourself" from his other songs, is the flow. Even the biggest hater can't hate the way Em delivered his verses on that beat.

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready to drop bombs,
But he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down,
The whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's choking how, everybody's joking now
The clock's run out, time's up, over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that
Easy, no
He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that but he's broke
He's so stagnant, he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again, yo
This whole rhapsody
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him




Yes Ronnie you are correct :lupe:

Bar & Measure
Like language, we hear and read music in a linear fashion. We comprehend all but insignificant portions of such linear information only if it is organized into digestible amounts that our minds can process. Bars or Measures are among the symbols that organize music information into uniform segments of time – somewhat like periods, commas, etc. in language – so it is visibly and audibly comprehensible. In notated music Bars are indicated by a simple vertical line running through the lines of the staff. Typically, one bar is the smallest temporal unit containing the meter – often incorrectly called “beat” – of the song.

In this little example if one taps along with each syllable of “Yan-kee Doo-dle” one taps four times before arriving at the first Bar line. These four taps, or Beats, comprise one bar (the first) of this song. All the Bars of the song that follow also will have the same number of beats. Even at the last measure of this example, on the word “pony”, while there are only two pitches and two syllables to sing, we will still tap four beats, and the measure will last exactly as long as the measures in which we sing more than two pitches and syllables. The terms Bar and Measure are used almost completely interchangeably. “Bar” is, perhaps, slightly more colloquial than “Measure”, and non-musicians would more likely refer, e.g., to a “four-bar phrase” rather than to a “four-measure phrase”. One finds these terms in music copyright infringement opinions, typically to identify common portions of songs (e.g., Dorchester v. NBC, 1959) and to support determinations of infringement (the greater number of bars in common between two songs, the greater the likelihood of a finding of infringement.

Off the top of my head I can only think of 1 rap song that wasn't 4/4 and that's stayed tuned by gang Starr.
