My Game Lyrics
by Mike Kosa
The song "My Game" speaks for itself, as it reflects the depth of competitive rap and the personal integrity of a true rapper. Mike Kosa gives the storyline of self-assurance and authenticity, going against the norms in the music scene and the realness of other artists. He compares his genuineness in skill and time to all the others who aren't really good and who just use pretense or deceit to be recognized.
It opens with an entrance to the "world of the game," hence setting an assumption in heading off towards the competitive nature of the rap industry. Mike Kosa has shown the interest to dominate over everybody—all local and foreign artists—in rap duels and overall line-for-line ability. Words that have sharpened with experience and resilience, in a matter of time, like a seasoned warrior of words.
Kosa, as such, ridicules the overall effort by many to make a living out of hip-hop without real talent and creativity. He ridicules the other attempts at other areas in the industry too, for instance, dressing smart is to impress to make it and speaking English is to sound bright, also quite unnecessary if one does not have real talent.
This also breaks the learning curve of a greenhorn into being one of the respected professionals within the music industry. He recognizes that jealousy and trials are brought on by worldly success and says it is more important to win by being real and free within one's art. Kosa exhorts through his lyric to maintain one's self, not pretending or seeking other people's approval. "My Game" is not just a testimony to Mike Kosa's lyrically-able self but to the general view of the rap industry; it is an honesty towards one's craft in general and life. Not to be left out are the underlined importance of the acceptance of individual talent and the strength of word power, which finalizes him as a worthy artist looked up to for his artistry and his values.
This song, with all the metaphors and real-life references included, speaks of Mike Kosa's philosophy: that he sticks to his roots and always bears in mind that his rap is reality. It's a firm reminder of values that define real artistry against commercialism and superficiality.
My Game Song Lyrics
My Game by Mike Kosa
Mike Kosa masmatindi pa sa mga egoy at kano
Kapag bumanat sa mic katumbas ko'y ilang tumbok
Sa aking dila na hindi na nagbabago ng tunog
Hinasa ng panahon kasabay ng beat box kong istilo
At inilapad ang mga letra sintigas ay iskundero
At ilang kwentong barbero ang aking natanggap
Ang masapawan ng pangalan ko kay hirap matanggap
Ako yung bata na gustung gustung gawing bataan
Na beterano naturing ang utak ay walang laman
Magcocompose ng english rap na ang buntirya magpabounce
Nagpapanggap na englishero mga bobo magpronounce
Full effect pero ang rhyming ay na-discorrect
Hindi ma-take ang pag-arte sabi ni direk
Wla kang karangalan pra sa akin magyabang
Isa ka lang na tagahanga na gusto sakin mag-abang
Ikaw ay bata para sakin wag kang magmagaling
Wala ka pa sa kalahati ng aking narating
Ngayon ka pa lang sumisibol at biglang sumulpot
At kumpara sakin ng kay dami ko nang nasundot
At dahil lang sa pagrarap ay dami nang nainggit
Pinapagana ko ay utak at hindi ang damit
Kasi ang iba ay nagrarap pra lng sa chikas
Eh pano kung hindi na uso ay bigla ka na lng lilikas
Hindi usapan kung beterano o maging baguhan
O kung ang mic ay nasa kaliwa o nasa kanan
Ang importante para sakin ay maging malaya
Hindi yung tipong champion ka ng dahil lng sa daya
Hindi ka dapat mag-angas o umasta na sikat
Alam ko alam mo rin na alam din ng lahat
Ikay nagbibingi-bingihan at nagpapakadisente
Na sa tuwing itoy tama nagpapanggap na inosente
Ang aking clone napakasimple pero di na uutal
Ang mga rhymes buong-buo pero malayong magbutal
Ipinamalas na ang husay sa mga klase ng duwelo
Kung ikaw ang makakalaban di ko kelangan pang bumuwelo
Di naging basehan sa dami ng iyong alalay
Ang pagiging magaling wala sa estado ng buhay
Laki man sa tundo walang sapat na pera
Aking kanta'y di kalidad at yaman ko ang letra
Di ako nagbibitaw ng mga patapon
Isang talento na hindi pinansin ng ilang taon
Ako yung preso na pinapangarap mong bumaba
At gusto mo akong isama sa iyong pagkadapa
Ikaw ang nagsimula ikaw ang unang nagpahangin
Binaba ko na ang lona mula sa pinilakang tabing
Di ka bagay mag-artista tanggalin ang maskara
Batalyong aking nakalaban tinumba ko mag-isa
Sa mga gustong maghari na ang trono ay bunyong
Kung gusto mong maka-isa humalik sa aking tumbong
Read my group DOS TALENTOS in 187 mobstah
Sapul ang humahatol sa mahusay na makata..
Mike Kosa!
