Cannibal Ox - Harlem Knights lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Mechanized is mega nice

We’re on corner stores have front porches you can take photos of

Broken 40's and empty boxes of Mike and Nikes

Young kids wearin’ all types of designer Nikes

Ridin’ on bikes with those lightnin’ lime in clothes tucked inside

With more broccoli and chocolate in small zips of Duncan Hines

Cuttin’ wires

Laced with fiber goggles

We were stealin’ gauze

Comin’ out of schools

Ring the alarms

So wettin’ teachers with Super Soakers

And doin’ the motions

Metal detectors were developed

In the event with kids really bringin’ in arms

Days cuttin’, seein’ brothers swingin’ their little siblings in parks

We was in watchin’ their little feet danglin’ in excitement

And when the cops came

You would swear that front of our gear, on our chest a small symbol of lightenin’

Nights wind blowin’ like a hawk

Battlin’ with the dark

Night vision installed

(Verse)

I'm so brown

I might be the color blue

The shade of the color in night is my hue

I am the axis that all men thought he knew

My magnetism binds like a glue

Boo x 2

I am not a spook

When the smoke disappears show me a tree without a root

These girls is like Frankenstein

They got fake hair, fake nails, and monster behinds

I was on the cave with Jabil and the spider

You was in the cave on all fours lookin’ for fire

That's right I fight cavemen

Cuz I am the original seed of Abraham

React now

I got a 2 piece like Pacquiao in the dead on winter

My two steps like May weather

My forearms is like Foremen

Swing at your grill with the weight of 5 men

My uptown anthem is known to make downtown niggas throw tantrums

My uptown anthem is known to make downtown niggas throw tantrums

Ya, ya
