Cassidy - Celebrate Lyrics






[Cassidy (Intro and rapping):]
I used to pump dimes, now I spit punchlines
I'm tired of cats tryin' to rap cus they want shine
I be writing to enlighten those that was once blind
this political warfare, and I'm on the front line
I'm a soldier who grew to be a general, but generals is soldiers too (true)

And I'm willing to do what soldiers do, but you know an animal can't control a zoo (uh uh)

And I always been a leader, I control my crew. You gotta school other dudes tryin' to roll with you.

And I'm getting more mature, I'm gettin' older too, but I'mma rock till it's over like Hova do.

And I don't tell lies like most of you, I really did sell piles, held toasters too.
I might exaggerate a little but it's mostly true, and the truth come to the light like its supposed to do.

Get the obituary ready, get the Reverend, my old style died, and went to punchline heaven.
You cats know that thats my flow, I'm a legend, big up John Legend for doing the song.

Ay, wanwan Kayne, I ain't a Juvenile, but I been on the grind-yee, I had a murder case,
I was facin some time-yee, but thats somethin' small to a giant like Andre,
and they was talkin' 'bout givin' me life, ya'll but I knew I was leavin' for belivin' in Christ,
ya'll, you could live it up, but don't give up the fight, ya'll, we elevatin, so we celebratin the night, ya'll.

Hang on lil' girl, soon all your troubles will be gone lil' girl, sometimes you probably wish you wasn't born lil' girl,
but God know what he doin', lil' girl (uh huh), so keep fightin.

And hang on lil' man, you can't quit now, keep goin' lil' man, sometimes you probably wish you wasn't born lil' man,
but God know what he doin' lil' man (uh huh), so keep fightin.

[Outro]

  4. T.... 7....

    This is a timeless banger! For everyone going through hard times.... Celebrate in almost 2020

  5. F.... 0....

    One of the best mc’s. Unlucky the hip hop industry is owned by the poisonous snakes that own the media. So they keep these real artists away from mainstream.

  6. L.... P....

    Still bumping in 2019

  7. D.... A....

    Who in 2019?

  8. S.... M....

    Cass should retire from battle rap and make more songs like this.

    S.... M....

    @Jason Askins  Jason Askins  Dude Cass took an L pure and simple. I actually came here to listen to how the Nina Simone sample was used in this song. I'm probably more hip hop than you'll ever be. I've been hip hop since the early 90's so don't talk to me about bars and lyricism. Especially when dude rapping Fortnite metaphors. Cass 1st verse was easy too long. He spit his best bars so in the 1st round. If he would've split his 1st round into 3 he would've won. His 2nd and 3rd round was trash. Credibility ain't got nothing to do with it him spitting trash in a battle.

    S.... M....

    @Sparkz Mentalz no you're not. I'm 43 and been listening since the late 80's right into the Golden era and beyond. If you say you've been listening since early 90's then you know that Cassidy was cut from that cloth with that style and battle. Unless you just a fan waver. Cassidy for real Hip-hop and bars envy and started gun bars that url rappers using now. That's impact. I'm from NYC, Brooklyn all day and you can't tell me shit about real Hip Hop. Judging the fact that you thought Goodz won alone. You get discredit your Hip Hop knowledge or you just have a low Hip Hop IQ. Trying to front talking about Nina Simone sample. Then go to Nina Simone music on YouTube then. You're on Cassidy music and you listened enough to write a comment

    S.... M....

    @Jason Askins LOL. Look at you. Getting all emotional. Cass took an L and needs to retire battle rapping. End of story.

    S.... M....

    @Sparkz Mentalz Cassidy battling Arsonal in September. Wtf are you talking about retiring? I swear these url cornball fans lol. He already 5002-0 retired and came back to URL to battle. That's some truth to your dome. End of Story

    S.... M....

    @Jason Askins LOL. URL Cornball? Nigga please. Learn to read. I said Cass NEEDS to retire. I didn't say Cass has retired. You got your lips wrapped around Cass dick tighter than a condom. Foh defending dude like he's your father. Dude is over with and needs to stick to making songs. I can see why you on his dick so much since yall both overly emotional with it. 2006 is long gone.

  9. a.... B....

    Cassidy needs to be Rather Go Platinum as a recording artists and a hip-hop artists for the things he does with his albums music and endeavors. #BlessYouCassidy #Celebrate

    B.... J....

    100% ❤

  29. i.... p....

    Where Cass@

  30. N.... A....

    love this track man

  31. s.... m....

    Great song

  32. M.... C....

    Much better sample than that new Yeezus trash.

  33. G.... ....

    the beat & hook were originally for Common's "Be" album, the track never made the cut. cassidy did his thing though for sure.

  34. x.... ....

    Reminds me of freshman year lol.

  35. x.... ....

    @itaku so true, he got his flow back now tho.

  36. A.... P....

    Cassidy reminds me of Max B sometimes

  37. I.... ....

    He use to be better, the car crash he was in fucked up his flow. Listen to anything he dropped prior the car crash (2003-2006).

  38. C.... D....

    Illuminati does the album for them......

  39. B.... ....

    B.A.R.S. is an underrated album.. it's definitely his best work..

  40. f.... ....

    I like his sampling here obviously, and always a fan of legend but I have to figure out if I like hi flow yet. it's a little.....overplayed? I don't know, his rhymes and his flow feel a little repetitive, and not necessarily complex. ??? But I haven't heard much of him so... it's very likely that he's better than I think he is.

  41. M.... ....

    Cass one of the best fuck That wayne shit

  42. A.... M....

    love dis song forreal....

  43. B.... ....

    but eminem, jay z, t.i., nas, cassidy my favorites

  54. M.... R....

    Thank you! Cassidy missed the whole point of the record Kanye & John Legend put together. You can tell he got hold to the recorder AFTER Common and just put his own spin to it, but the topic is a bit off. If they know the story of "Strange Fruit," they know his story is a bit different from what it should be on record. He didn't go deep enough.

  55. J.... J....

    "And they was talking bout giing me life yah, but i knew i was leaving for beleiving in christ yah" This dudes tuff

  56. T.... l....

    Big up's to Cassidy he doing the impossible.

  59. J.... N....

    It's Billie Holiday, "Strange Fruit", maybe the Nina Simone version though, so your probably right, I just know it was originally done by Billie Holiday

  60. K.... C....

  61. J.... N....

    It's not Nina Simone, It's Billie Holiday

  62. D.... C....

  73. m.... s....

  74. H.... ....

    i thought it was Billie Holiday...Strange fruit. maybe i assumed too quickly

  75. N.... ....

    ay your forgetin lupe fiasco mane :)

  76. C.... S....

    who is the sample from the beginning? Sounds like Nina Simone but idk...gave me goosebumps

  77. m.... s....

    wagwan kanye?he's the best next to pac fuck all yo.pap spit but this shit is so killllling.this dude matches he's themes to any beat so well.not all can.he,beans,styles,saigon have so much pain in chest, but the mainstream beats&hype is destroying them.wish they hold on 2 this typa shit.cass must do with styles or Az or pap or sai.

  78. N.... ....

    so smooth, one of da truest songs i eva heard

  79. B.... T....

    ok hes in the lead fuck lil wayne,this dude got so many styles.....lil wayne cant change his style like cassidy can...somebody get the news hip-hop was just resurrected!!!

  83. J.... S....

    keep it up cas.... i'm tryin to make it to the top but you on top.... so you the man

  84. B.... B....

    dis song is not direspectful to billie holiday for those who think it is. its sendin a positive message tellin those in a struggle to hold on and celebrate how far they've come. and when billie holiday says "black bodies swingin in the southern breeze" maybe to cassidy that means a sign of freedom. to me it means we are able to be free and dance wit the breeze and just be care free. dance lil brother, dance lil sister.

  85. z.... ....

    wagwaan kanye...lol
    he is sik

  86. j.... t....

    cassidy you are the best
