The Anthem Lyrics

Cover art for The Anthem lyrics by k-os

This song, to me, is talking about the commercialism and plain monotony of hip hop and rap right now. It used to be diverse and interesting and REAL, but now it's all prepackaged mass-produced garbage.

He's also talking about a hip hop revolution. He's trying to tell people that things need to change... Unfortunately, he's a lone soldier against the big corporations. We need to get more people behind this. Stop buying the stuff, turn off the TV and radio when it comes on, support real artists, and you'll see a change. The reason why more people aren't is because they haven't seen anything but the bad... We need to open their eyes, people. Show them what music really is.
