We kick off fundraising for our startup, Undrip. http://undrip.com/rap

Verse 1:
Yo this is Undrip baby, comin hot out the kitchen
It's Mick on the Mic, so you might wanna listen
Bout to knock the socks off the competition
Biggest move I've made since I dropped outta Princeton
I don't play games like a politician
Wouldn't be here without a value proposition
Ambition doesn't get an intermission
So I'm swingin for the fences like I did with Zinch and
Inch by inch, row by row
I'm gonna make this business grow
All I need is that seed round dough
and the flow from my Undrip fount -- Say Word
Uh yes yes y'all, we're Thus Fresh y'all
A cut above above the rest, obsessed with success y'all
You know I don't sleep, Cuz it really ain't restful
I'm always on my grind like a mortar and pestle

Chorus:
We need a angel, We need a ride
We need a bump, a bump so we fly
We're gonna make that money off of social steam
But we need your help to reach the dream
We need a angel, We need a ride
We need a bump a bump so we fly
Undrip is about to go
We just need an angel to unlock the flow

Verse 2:
Comin straight outta Soma, the valley of silicone
In the zone, writing code til we see the break of dawn
Learning the ropes from the CEO
And we'll be crushin it from NDA to IPO
Here we go again, yeah it's back to bootstrap
A lot of young companies do dat do dat
You see these other suckas and they moving at a turtle pace
But check the way we run it when we jump over your burn rate
New York never sleeps, well that may be
But we never sleep either, cuz we workin on them qwerty keys
Lookin for the future exit strategies
If you sleep on this now, then we'll see you at the mezzanine
Real hot issue, cold hard currency
Term sheet poppin' so check check out the equity
Mister Investor, Mister VC
I'm down to take a number, but don't make me take a knee
