(slim kid3) | |
The way that momma raised us was pure faith | |
So diablo wouldn't faze us or daze us | |
Or lay us down to sleep | |
Know the wolf from the sheep | |
Or the sheep who cried wolf | |
And threw the deadly hoof | |
While the wolf was asleep | |
I keep my mind a ghost | |
Follow my heart the most | |
Don't play fools too close | |
Sleep with my eyes at post | |
So diablo won't be hostin the game of life | |
The knife sits by throats of the young | |
And blows death straight through the lungs | |
As the mind gets washed by visions of sugar plums | |
But we shall overcome cause we ain't dumb | |
But we ain't smart, they got the girls by the hearts | |
And the niggaz by the nuts | |
Ear, tongue and butts | |
Yeah, they're trying to fuck us up | |
But, shit, you know what's up | |
We gotta get with the movement | |
And move men soon | |
They consume every womb who bares | |
Beneath the stairs of their doom | |
Best believe they're gonna shove em in a tomb | |
Chorus: repeat 4x | |
Cause everytime i step to the microphone | |
I put my soul on 2" reels | |
That i don't even own | |
(bootie brown) | |
Early saturday mornin i was cartoon gazin | |
Slowly broke into the kitchen | |
To fill a bowl with some raisin bran | |
As i ran up and down the tv stations | |
I witnessed indian joe | |
Getting tricked out of this nation | |
By a silly hillbilly | |
Who laughed as the shit happened | |
Everything's the same | |
The game continued into rappin | |
Deception is at an all-time high | |
You give a piece of your soul | |
To receive some crumbs from the pie | |
But you know i keep on rappin til the break of dawn | |
Even though it is my soul that i do not even own | |
Chorus: repeat 4x | |
(fatlip) | |
I was po', nlack and broke | |
Beyond a shadow of a doubt | |
Ass-out, wide open waitin for my shit to come on out | |
Speakin about the time before i got signed | |
I was coolin behind coolio in the county line | |
My big brother used to say i was an asshole | |
Didn't graduate, couldn't handle the hassle | |
Of high school, why fool | |
Wit' foolish rules and guidelines | |
Fuck the cap and tassels | |
Said forget the trade and tried rhymes | |
Hooked up with j-swift, got with 2-4-2 | |
Me and my nigga l.a. jay back at s.c.u. | |
I grab the mic one-time | |
Check it, 1-2, we in | |
Freakin' major flavors with my fellow nubians | |
Takin shit to the next level | |
Too bad i sold my soul to the fuckin devil |
