[00:01.20] |
I went to bed at midnight |
[00:03.83] |
And the clock said "One, two, three |
[00:06.83] |
Go 'head and close your eyelids |
[00:09.40] |
And then tell me what you see." |
[00:12.69] |
Cause every word that comes through me |
[00:15.28] |
It was born in a nightmare |
[00:17.55] |
|
[00:24.39] |
I met some old friends recently |
[00:26.92] |
They on a whole new frequency |
[00:29.81] |
I made some new friends the other day |
[00:32.52] |
But they was talking 'bout colorways |
[00:35.49] |
You can't rock clothes like Kanye |
[00:38.08] |
Then go home with frozen entrees |
[00:39.79] |
|
[00:46.09] |
Yo, Give me food truck tacos |
[00:49.30] |
Heavy sour-cream, no cilantro |
[00:52.64] |
Rap's all post-modern |
[00:55.38] |
A bunch of style authors but no fathers |
[00:58.60] |
I stay familiar with my lineage |
[01:01.32] |
And spend a lot of time defending it |
[01:03.84] |
|
[01:06.55] |
Yeah, I think I would've made a great panther |
[01:12.97] |
I used to be a break dancer |
[01:15.97] |
And I used to smoke a pack a day |
[01:18.80] |
But I got scared of the face cancer |
[01:21.67] |
I pray to god like Esther Rolle |
[01:24.45] |
That I'll be blessed with some breath control |
[01:27.17] |
|
[01:54.48] |
Yo, I want shag on my floor charred carpeting |
[01:58.10] |
And "Oh god," singing four-part harmony |
[02:01.39] |
Go to the valley, get a manager |
[02:04.20] |
Who specializes in porn-star marketing |
[02:06.88] |
I wish every day was Halloween |
[02:09.65] |
I'd be Frylock from the Aqua Teens |
[02:18.49] |
|
[02:18.88] |
Yo. Why? I don't know why |
[02:22.51] |
Maybe to make the time go by |
[02:24.93] |
Maybe I got bats in my belfry |
[02:27.21] |
But if it was that, who could tell me? |
[02:30.69] |
You say the things that you overheard |
[02:33.27] |
I see the things that you don't observe |
[02:36.34] |
The written life strictly synthesized |
[02:39.32] |
And tricks the eyes like lower-thirds |
[02:41.88] |
|
[02:42.49] |
I see the future for city niggas |
[02:44.65] |
Gang-banging with samplers on midi-triggers |
[02:47.36] |
A different future for rural folks |
[02:50.29] |
Cause that will be where the tourists go |
[02:53.46] |
To take pictures of families with real-life first cousins, sisters and aunties |
[02:58.85] |
|
[03:03.80] |
Yo, I got a heart like a Buick motor |
[03:07.64] |
And play my part like a super soldier |
[03:10.46] |
I got a mind like a steel toe |
[03:13.63] |
I be walking on my heels, though |
[03:16.82] |
The internet and the cable's out |
[03:19.20] |
Man, I should go get a paper route |
[03:21.87] |
|
