Knaan - What's Hardcore? lyrics

rate me

I put a pen to the paper

this time as visual as possible

guns blast at the hospital

the walls are whitewashed

with tin roof tops

to show love you lick your two shots

its dangerous man,

journalists hire gunmen

there's violent women

kids trust no one cause fire *burn* them

refugees die on boats

headed for peace

is anyone scared of death here?

not in the least.

i walk by an old lady

selling coconuts under the tree

life is cheap here but wisdom is free

the beach boys hang on the side

leaning with pride,

scam artists and gangsters

fiending to fight

i walk with three kids

that cant wait to meet god lately

thats bucktooth mohammed and crybaby

what they do everyday

just to eat, lord have mercy

strapped with an AK and they bloodthirsty..

CHORUS:

So whats hardcore, Really?

are you hardcore? hmmmm..

We begin our day by the weight of the gun

rocket propelled grenades blow you away if you front

we got no police ambulance or firefighters

we start riots by burning car tires

they lootin, and everybody starts shootin

bullshit politicians talkin bout solutions

but its all talk, you cant go half a block without a roadblock

you dont pay at the roadblock you get your throat shot

and each roadblock is set up by these gangsters

and different gangsters go by different standards

for example, the evening is a no go

unless you want to wear a bullet like a logo

in the day you should never take the alleyway

the only thing that validates you is the AK

they chew on *chad*, its sorta like coca leaves

and there aint no police..

CHORUS

I'm a split these verses, cause i feel annoyed

and im not gonna quit till i fill the void

if i rhymed about home and got discriptive

i'd make 50 cent look like limp bizkit

its true, and dont make me rhyme about you

im from where the kids is addicted to glue

get ready, he got a good grip on the machete

make rappers say they do it for love like R Kelly

its hard.

harder than harlem and compton intertwined

harder than *harboring* bin laden and rewind

to that earlier part when i was kinda like

We begin our day by the weight of the gun

rocket propelled grenades blow you away if you front

we got no police ambulance or firefighters

we start riots by burning car tires

they lootin, and everybody starts shootin

CHORUS

Thanks to jad is spelled chad,harbouring is spelledharboring for these lyrics
