This Weeks HipHop Quotable is actually and oldie but goodie. It comes from Alias of the Anticon camp. Im so tired of the music nowadays so I went back and listened to the Deep Puddle Dynamics album. This verse actually speaks for me and my feelings towards everything right now. Check the rhyme structure, vocabulary and content. Oh yeah for all you dumb muthafuckas out there Alias is a white dude from Cali...hate on that shit! Alias - The Scarecrow Speaks Let me address you with two conflicting topics at this moment Two paths I've roamed it Intention to hit home with this discussion And make you pawn to strengthen your words Not talking racial connotation, but loosely tied with bees and birds Also loosely tied with opposites The depths of negativity in your soul Let it take control, and you can see deeper into the hole Of self-destruction its obstruction of the opposite feeling My fellow men and women, its love and hate with which we're dealing I've experienced both words Let's ponder my theory and thought On these two and the correlation that each other has brought I've sought the answer and I've found hate is stronger than love I love to hate you, I hate to love you, hate always ends up above It's much easier to say you hate than to say you love a person But easier to say you love material and currency when it's dispersin I've realized long ago that either word is a delicate topic so Hence the circle on my finger I.D.O. on that day was my flow And although I see many problems in my fellow man Hatred of others is absolutely not my master plan My other spiritual half has taught me much about my true feelings I was slipping into mental remission but it was brought into the healing process I consider myself blessed when I think Floating up above the majority makes others look like they sink Hating, you give up nothing Love, you give it up all So I smirk at all of yall While you await my downfall
