"Good Morning"

[Chorus]
I want to show all of my haters love (hey!)
This song's for you (this song's for you)
If you had it like me and I was in your shoes
I'd probably hate on me too
See when you're gettin big cash stacks, all the haters hate that
'Cause they hate to see you be successful
I want to show all of my haters love
So I wave to you like "good morning"
Ha-ha-ha-ha-haters, good morning
Ha-ha-ha-ha-haters, good morning

[Verse 1]
Yeah, today gonna be (A Good Day), I'm feelin like I'm Ice Cube
I'm wakin up like can't nobody mess up my mood
Knowin I'm a boss, I'm a do what I choose
If I was you then I would probably (hate of me too)
If it's true (true), that money is time, then watch this
Ain't tryin to run out of time, so I purchase some watches
Y'all sick, the chips got the haters nauseous
They chicks jumpin in my whip like a mosh pit
I wish (wish) I could be effected by any hate but I can't (can't)
'Cause I just get effected by the bank
It's great (great) to never know the feel of bein fake
I awake, then I go take a visit to the sink
Uh, dirty money got me sanitizin my hands
Lord knows what the previous owner did with these grands
Yeah, I ain't sayin it just to brag
I say it so you can be motivated to get the cash

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Hold up (hold up)
Success is a woman, I always had dreams of sexin
If wantin her is a crime, just take me in for possession
Even in a recession, I'm leavin a good impression
Reflection on the rims, so they can see they expressions
I'm busy man, you need to schedule an appointment
Haters on they job and they act like they enjoy it
Wake up in the morning, now hop into my foreign
Walk into the bank and it's just like a house warming
Hey, we get the money by the minute
They said we couldn't do it (do it) but we already did it (did it)
I'm fresh outfitted and my Benz got kitted
'Cause I get-get-did it and you did-did-didn't
I admit it, I'm really 'bout to show you how I do
If you know that you a hater, this dedicated to you
You hatin my last move, I'm way on my next move
See they hate to see you be successful

[Chorus]

Ha-ha-ha-ha-haters, good morning
Ha-ha-ha-ha-haters, good morning




The structure on this song is very basic, and very good. (IMO) Chamillionaire is one of the best at changing his voice enough to keep a listener interested.

Reading the lyrics you will notice how he makes some words rhyme, that don't naturally rhyme, with out tweaking them a little. Eminem does this more than any one I know.

At 14 most likely your content won't be enjoyed or believed by any one if you are, over aggressive, talking about years of experience, gangster talk, or sexual stuff, drug use, or other things of that nature. Try to listen to artist you can relate to for inspiration. below I will post artist that have made dope songs that steer away from some of the stuff I mentioned.







macklemore is a great example of how voice is important in rap. He found his, and its dope. He developed it his earlier stuff he only sounded like this on certain parts, he grew as an artist and fine tuned his craft.

@FrankBeardJr, because I'm not quoting that long of a post. Macklemore is most of what I listen to, along with some Eminem. I understand how changing your voice and tone can be important, and as nerdy as it sounds, I am part of Speech and Debate team, and I stay mostly on the Interpretive Play type things, without props or costumes or anything. As you can imagine, a play done by a single person without props and many characters needs different voices and transitions. I try to practice that a lot. Unfortunately sometimes I write some rhymes that don't really make sense in others minds, with the rhythm and things, but If I was actually recording it could sound good. Thanks for the tips, I'm going to start filtering through some of these videos now, but I'm planning to start a longer song soon, may try to actually record it if I can, will probably wait on a step like that though. Thanks!
