Atmosphere - C'mon lyrics
rate me<BR>
C'mon <i>[repeated]</i><br>
<br>
When he was a kid he was the joker<br>
Low potential, straight mediocre<br>
Class clown, sneak off out the back door<br>
Long hair leave a grease spot on the black board<br>
C'mon honey take off that bra<br>
Tryin to hit a homerun in your mom's garage<br>
He loved graffiti, it opened him<br>
Creeped down the alley with a can of rustoleum<br>
Canvas, that flat surface<br>
He learned quick to control the nervousness<br>
If it aint buildin he burnt the bridge<br>
And no he dont give a damn what the curfew is<br>
Chased away all the saving grace<br>
While them old folks bitch about the way hes raised<br>
Southside Minneatmosphere<br>
Get ya running from the cops just for practice here<br>
Well what do ya know he got older <br>
Trying to apply what childhood showed him<br>
Everybody left out in that cold<br>
To try to learn how to manage all that weight on his shoulders<br>
We all want the easy life a piece of the pie that'll keep us high<br>
So turn it up til' the speakers cry<br>
And don't quit til' you reach the sky, c'mon<br>
<br>
c'mon <i>[repeated]</i><br>
<br>
And as an adult he took a good look<br>
Stayed away from the gangs and the crooks<br>
Even though he came from the same neighborhood<br>
So he fully understood that gang textbook<br>
Stay original be individual<br>
Push the pedal and never settle for the typical<br>
Feed your children look out for your people<br>
Live and let live and each one teach those<br>
Good luck get a tight defense<br>
And i hope you can depend on your higher sense<br>
Blanked emcees let em grow for <br>
The followers, felons, the fallen soldiers<br>
Hey rapper, we know it don't stop<br>
But don't forget about the folks on your block<br>
hey dopeman what you doin with the cash crop<br>
fuckin up gettin fat, fuckin up fellow have nots<br>
hey preacher, politician<br>
is that the house you live in<br>
how's the kitchen<br>
hey policeman dont bother<br>
even as a kid i only played robbers and robbers<br>
headphone activists<br>
aggressive pacifists<br>
i aint saying you gotta kill cops<br>
just look at your life check what its built off<br>
