Script

Pathos: I sense a little apprehension in your voice.

Niko: I like it a bit but, uh, I'm not a crazy fan.

Pathos: Cause the shit went all commercial? Because people sold out? I hear you.

Niko: No, not really.

Pathos: Cause the shit ain't real no more? Ain't got no intelligence? For real. Well, you gonna love my shit.

Niko: Your shit?

Pathos: Yes - it's the real urban consciousness and man it is real. Pathos. Believe that.

Niko: Why are you selling it on the street?

Pathos: The majors are just pimps, and I ain't no bitch.

Niko: No. I can see that.

Pathos: Man, if I have to spend the rest of my life preaching on a street corner, so fucking be it. Give it up for Pathos!

Gangster: Yo, Pathos! You a bitch and you suck dick!

Pathos: Man, you hear that punk.

Gangster: Yeah, he heard me, bitch. What you gonna do about it?

Pathos: Hey, fuck you...I've had enough of your crap.

(Niko and Pathos fight the hecklers)

Pathos: I'm gonna lyricize 'bout your punk ass.

Pathos: Yo don't nobody treat the Pathos like that.

Pathos: You don't know what it like to be no rapper.

Pathos: I'm more gangster than you ever gonna know, punk.

Pathos: I'm gonna shut all you haters up.

Pathos: Shit, I know what it like to not be appreciated in my own time.

Pathos: You better get down and stay down.

Pathos: You don't get no real music, punk.

(The two beat up the gang members)

Pathos: Yo thanks, son. You, you a child of the street. You know the truth when you see it. Man, I'm going to immortalize you. Keep it real, from your man Pathos.

Niko: Thanks, man. I'll see you around.
