Dos Sinatra - Caught Up In Da Hype

Why don't y'all take a look at that sign up there, see what it says
Cash for your home
You know what that is
A billboard

What are y'all, Amos and Andy
You step in and he's fetching
I'm talking about the message, what it stands for
It's called gentrification

It's what happens when the property value of a certain area is brought down
Huh
You listening
Yeah

They bring the property value down
They can buy the land at a lower price
Then they move all the people out, raise the property value, and sell it at a profit
And what we need to do is we need to keep everything in our neighborhood, everything Black

Black-owned, black-run
I was never for the hype
Italians, Mexicans, and the Koreans do
Ain't nobody from outside bringing down the property value

Hype, hype
Caught up in the hype
We ain't gotta fight just to be right
We ain't gotta fight just to be right

Hype, hype
Caught up in the hype
We ain't gotta fight just to be right
We ain't gotta fight just to be right

Top boss
Oh, you wanna be the top boss
Let's see how much this nigga got left
You know he dead right after

Lights dimmer, elephant room
Niggas know who the winner
Five percenter
Niggas ain't dying scared of a censor

Look who been shook
Underrated dose
Nice with the hooks
Hang with the cooks

Looking for an option
Dose been popping
Seven days, no wave, still here
Used to be a follower

Now I got a following
Hollering
Yo, Dose, what up
Cold like a pole

Can't get stuck
Can't rush on greatness
I been great, bitch
Put to the test, you can't say shit

Find things, want more than a fine thing
Can't pay you off, I'm not a Weinstein
Top down, sunroof with a hype beam
You know what I mean

Come clean
Believe what you wanna believe
Stay sharp, cause I never have butter my leaves
Unconceived

Trick fire, Adam and Eve
Who's hype for it
Been here, so I show for it, nigga
Hype

Caught up in the hype
We ain't gotta fight just to be right
We ain't gotta fight just to be right
No

Hype
Caught up in the hype
You ain't gotta fight just to be right
Nah

You ain't gotta fight just to be right
No
Back to business
Dose gotta finish

Master
Son of you niggas, they on apprentice
I get it
Eh

Wait
I can do better than that
The goal is to be rich
Fuck with her who got no kids

That's your money
Money
Wait
Backpedaling

Niggas really struggling
Hustling
Nine to five, you gotta double it
Ain't no hype, so who hyped it

Ooh
Ooh
Caught up in the hype
Fiend for the hype

Jump for the hype
Stand for the hype
Love for the hype
Understand how the dark and light becoming so in sight that you feel for it

Caught up in the hype
You ain't gotta fight just to be right
Nah
You ain't gotta fight just to be right

No
But y'all niggas do whatever for the hype, man
Don't fall for it
Let's go

Hi
