Nothing To Prove feat. Kolya and Liana
Describes a disease -- one where men are paranoid about their own sexual inadequacy.
I'm writing/rapping the Dumpster Manifesto -- reality from a different perspective.

I have been interested in Hip-Hop since 1995. My first album was Tupac Shakur's Me Against The World. I was only 11, but his music still managed to reach me.
I miss rap with a message. It seems everyone is a megalomaniac. So I'm doing my own thing. Hopefully people will give a sh*t.
Story behind the song
Just got sick of the macho boys who are always trying to get up in my face and prove something.

Intro:
Welcome to Channel 9 News. This is David Tansey.
This morning the World Health Organization released a report identifying a previously unrecognized disease. The report claims that there may possibly be BILLIONS of people affected. The symptoms include macho-ism, elevated aggression, and short tempers, among others. It seems this disease is caused by a person, presumably a man by the description, being paranoid about, and obsessed with, his own sexual deficiency. It's being called LDS, Little Dick Syndrome.
That's all we have for now. Please, everyone, have sympathy for these men who have to live life fearing they are inadequate. Let us have a moment of silence and hope our society might find a cure.
Song:
Large or small most men are paranoid
Puffing out their chests like itty bitty boys
"Am i a man yet?" you just don't get it.
Being a man means you don't have to fret it!
Being gay is the 3rd grade's worst claim
Praying those bullies will stop yelling what they're saying
Waiting 'till you're big hoping to beat them raw
Knock 'em to the ground give them 10 in the jaw
"Now am I a man?" You still don't get it!
Trust me, you're the only one who cares about it
No locker room talks, no women who thought,
"Is he really big enough? Is he really what I want?"
Still you square your shoulders calling me queer like I care
I just pat you on the shoulder, "I'm sorry you're scared"
You're the one diseased, I'm not the fool
Don't wanna walk in your shoes. I have nothing to prove.
//
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
//
When we fight, we might as well whip them out
No point lying, we know what it's about
No more shooting and killing, stabbing and dealing
Lost friends, plagued from the beginning of time
I'm trying to stay clean, it's creeping in on me
Met too many men, jealous and hating me
Two choices at birth, Tom Cruise or be worthless
Flirting with girls or iron your shirts
To the gay men, I'm just telling the truth
A couple billion men, living as fools
Enough people already. Why are you paranoid?
If it causes so much fear, just cut the thing off!
Shining a spotlight on what, most men have caught
A lie we bought. taught a LD life is for naught
You keep dreaming about your life of hate
Just try to contemplate why you want to spit in my face
//
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
//
No beating will stop me, I have nothing to fear
Laughing when 12 year old minds think that I'm queer
Maybe you're scared when you look in the mirror
Veiling the fear but the curtain is sheer
I'm not hating. I want you to be happy man
Think i'm stupid? Trying to lose half my fans?
I know they're few, but I'm not a fool
I just want my fellow men to stop abusing themselves
Creating their hell, trying to break the spell
Pay attention, hear what I'm tellin' ya
I beat this game, trying to change the rules
Using my voice attempting to end the abuse
You have a choice if you're sick of being a boy
To be perfectly honest, this is getting annoying
So you have to choose. what do you have to lose?
A lot to gain, to live with nothing to prove!
//
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.
nothing.
I have nothing to prove.

Outro:
Welcome back. We have an update on LDS. It seems there is a cure. If you have any fear that you might be affected by LDS you can attempt this. There are no adverse side effects to those unaffected.
Put one hand on either side of your head. Concentrate! They say concentration is key. Close your eyes. Say out loud, "I have nothing to prove!" Then think about how stupid this obsession is. Open your eyes. It should be gone
