[00:00.00]Roll On Up Restrung (Explicit) - Hilltop Hoods
[00:00.22]Well he used to high fly but he crashed out the sky
[00:06.08]In a stardust fling hey rock and roll king is down
[00:12.97]Roll on up
[00:13.94]As we proceed to give you what you need
[00:18.33]Roll on up
[00:19.45]As we proceed we hit the freeway and roll
[00:24.39]On up
[00:24.97]Shows and flows till the rhyme was felt
[00:26.92]Coast to coast and cut through the Bible belt
[00:29.54]A tribal yell till the vibe was felt
[00:31.81]Surviving hell and back man on every track man saliva spelt
[00:34.78]Hilltop Hilltop we hustled independent
[00:38.18]It's the muscle and the emblem
[00:40.48]We paved roads with our soul and suffering
[00:42.66]For the stage coach carrying hip hop to roll on up in
[00:46.11]There's something that's making them nervous
[00:48.30]The undergrounds taking these verses and breaking the surface
[00:51.48]With a brand new cockiness a brand new confidence
[00:54.34]Treat em like they owe me man; pay me my compliments
[00:57.43]No obstacles the fans and the fam make it possible
[01:00.70]And Obese got a roster full of rocket fuel
[01:03.07]So keep an eye out for those out ripping it up
[01:05.95]Putting it down 'Cos the fans are now picking it up
[01:08.65]Roll on up hip hop's no longer living
[01:11.01]In rocks shadow the kids are now spitting not singing
[01:13.83]Roll on up and come and see emcees free
[01:16.59]Their sounds to the sound of an MPC it goes
[01:19.49]Roll on up hip hop's no longer living
[01:21.98]In rocks shadow the kids are now spinning not singing
[01:25.05]Roll on up and see the djs getting the love
[01:27.80]From every head that step in the club
[01:29.45]We hit the freeway and roll on up
[01:31.66]With this everyday hustle
[01:32.87]Ain't nothing over night man
[01:34.47]It takes struggle to make muscle
[01:36.23]And half of these kids are under the poverty line
[01:38.62]The other half confuse skills with gonna be signed
[01:41.62]But this world doesn't owe you a debt
[01:43.66]So don't you expect a hand out or me to show you respect
[01:46.97]I got no regrets why 'Cos really its proof
[01:49.78]That makes a good lie better than the hideous truth
[01:52.50]I don't preach or scream ain't trying to teach the scene
[01:55.26]The only guidelines are those you need to read between
[01:58.11]And the eighties is gone its a crazy biz
[02:00.77]Nowadays hip hops whatever the f**k I say it is
[02:03.89]The reason I'm down and kept my feet on the ground
[02:06.35]So I could breathe life back into the street with my sound
[02:09.14]So from the rappers to the vinyl stores
[02:11.05]Risking their spinal cord
[02:12.51]To define a 'cause we about to reach our final straw
[02:15.31]Roll on up hip hop's no longer living
[02:17.67]In rocks shadow the kids are now spitting not singing
[02:20.59]Roll on up and come and see emcees free
[02:23.43]Their sounds to the sound of an MPC it goes
[02:26.40]Roll on up hip hop's no longer living
[02:28.77]In rocks shadow the kids are now spinning not singing
[02:31.85]Roll on up and see the djs getting the love
[02:34.65]From every head that step in the club
[02:36.30]We hit the freeway and roll
[02:47.13]We roll on ripping it
[02:48.37]'Cos some of these execs are just soulless lepers
[02:51.12]They'll buy you lunch 'Cos they stole your breakfast
[02:53.94]Now who I'm going to let control these records
[02:56.77]And who's going to hold these weapons
[02:58.62]Roll independent we owe nothing to no one
[03:02.33]Got love for Elefant Tracks
[03:03.86]Love for the Shogun
[03:05.12]Girl love for Hydrofunk and the homespun
[03:08.04]'Cause we a dying breed and this loathsome
[03:10.19]Industries about the mint
[03:11.74]Not the plant that dresses lunches
[03:14.09]Nah man it's the plant that presses hundreds
[03:16.37]We run with each and every rhymer since
[03:19.00]'Cause we never been so large that
[03:20.55]I couldn't read the finer print
[03:22.02]Roll on up hip hop's no longer living
[03:24.47]In rocks shadow the kids are now spitting not singing
[03:27.38]Roll on up and come and see emcees free
[03:30.24]Their sounds to the sound of an MPC it goes
[03:33.07]Roll on up hip hop's no longer living
[03:35.54]In rocks shadow the kids are now spinning not singing
[03:38.56]Roll on up and see the djs getting the love
[03:41.18]From every head that step in the club
[03:42.97]We hit the freeway and roll on up
