(ft. Murs & Mistah Fab)
(UnderRated)
Potluck this is the hip hop police you are wanted for rapping about
marijuana and not sticking to the elements
put down your microphones and come out with your hands up
Chorus (Ishi Dube):
Put your hands up
(1 Ton): They wanna put me in a box with a label on top
Then tell me that I ainât Hip-Hop
(Ishi Dube): Hands Up
(1 Ton): They gonna try an take my sound and shut it down
Every time I step outta bounds
Put your hands up
(1 Ton): They wanna put me in a box with a label on top
Then tell me that I ainât Hip-Hop
(Ishi Dube): Hands Up
(1 Ton): They gonna try an take my sound and shut it down
Every time I step outta bounds
(1 Ton):
Rocked every state, every town, every block
We been to every club in every hood collectin props
and when we in ya city best believe we make it pop
We get a map of the country play connect the dots
Cause everything ainât always what u think it is
Fuckin Hip-Hop Police straight ridiculous
They so scared a change want us to sound the same
But me I keep it fresh so you best get on the train
We going nonstop rollin to the beat drop
We take a dive bar, turn it to a hot spot
Iâm a little different but that should be OK
Think outside the box an say what I wanna say
(UnderRated):
The mainstream says were too underground
the underground says were too mainstream
man we get the run around
So we just do us no matter what
see Potluck at a show and the crowd goes nutz
rush to the front of the stage to get a better view
catch DJ Wicked rippin up the 1s and 2s
but were still not real hip hop
must be cause we talk about smokin pot
but Humboldtâs where iâm from and Iâm never gonna switch
thatâs like telling too short to stop saying the word bitch
blood sweat and tears 12 years in the game
still donât gimme no respect and they say
Chorus (Ishi Dube):
Put your hands up
(1 Ton): They wanna put me in a box with a label on top
Then tell me that I ainât Hip-Hop
(Ishi Dube): Hands Up
(1 Ton): They gonna try an take my sound and shut it down
Every time I step outta bounds
Put Ya Hands Up
(UnderRated): Murs youâve been spotted at Juggalo shows everywhere
Your not real hip hop put down your microphone and come out with your hands up
They say Murs is a Juggalo
Damn Right and every chance I get you can catch me at the fuckin show
Hit the pit throwin that sticky shit I got mad clown love for that wicked shit (Whoop Whoop)
What I supposed to front to protect my street cred
so I can get love from the jocks and the meat heads
Fuck outta here with that bullshit
Iâmma always gonna b a nerd man fuck the cool kids
I grew up on comic books and G funk
yaâll doin what you can, we doin what we want
Murs and Potluck Iâm knowin they all struck
the live show got the whole world on our nutz
So why would I care what the fuck u think
I got dreads of faygo yeah they fuckin stink
At cave in rock Iâm gonna act a fool
Now where so I put this hatchet attacks (fades out)(Whoop Whoop)
Chorus (Ishi Dube):
Put your hands up
(1 Ton): They wanna put me in a box with a label on top
Then tell me that I ainât Hip-Hop
(Ishi Dube): Hands Up
(1 Ton): They gonna try an take my sound and shut it down
Every time I step outta bounds
Put Ya Hands Up
(UnderRated): Mister Fab How can you be hyphy and lyrical at the same time
your not real hip hop put down your microphone and come out with your hands
(Mistah Fab):
They say that Iâm not hip hop because I flip flop
and I did ghostwriter and they say that itâs pop
And Iâm not street fly cause I donât spit rocks and I donât hit pot and I donât sip scotch
They say Iâm not a beat boy cause I donât break dance
well come to my shows and I have great fans
Theyâll show straight hands and some like eight hands
you do free shows but I make 8 grand
I wonder wonder why you hate me
Cause I do everything that you cant man
And lyrically you fear me considerlly fact that I can rap any style any track and I brought my state back
In the tour with snoop dogg you donât remember back
pack rap cats and DJs that scratch tracks not serato
strictly off the record i guess thatâs why you critics donât respect it
Chorus (Ishi Dube):
Put your hands up
(1 Ton): They wanna put me in a box with a label on top
Then tell me that I ainât Hip-Hop
(Ishi Dube): Hands Up
(1 Ton): They gonna try an take my sound and shut it down
Every time I step outta bounds
Put Ya Hands Up
(1 Ton): They wanna put me in a box with a label on top
Then tell me that I ainât Hip-Hop
(Ishi Dube): Hands Up
(1 Ton): They gonna try an take my sound and shut it down
Everytime I step outta bounds
Every time I step outta bounds
Put Ya Hands Up
