Raekwon - The Scroll lyrics

rate me

Yeah, word, I heard about it, man

Yeah, word, similar story, you know?

[Raekwon:]

Regardless, we all ninjas, and got money,

But the theme of the story

Is yo, checking how they came for me

(This is it, B)

Kinda brief from the gold teeth era,

Bro dreaming on C.R.E.A.M.

Complimentaries and beef

I'm from the wild side, a militant was made by the foremost elite

It sound good, brung my rifle shit, clean

Met the others, lit a blunt, begin

I'm like Nicole Kidman in the wind, niggas is wild, niggas is eat

Then I chanced it, blood can always beat mud

Mud is part of being thug, I guess it's advance, we from the street

This is me, I'm ready to beat, whatever, we gon' off' it

One time alone, yo, they pricked up Unique

Meth standing there, rare hustler hair, right in front of the building

Them niggas do them killings out there

This is deep, me, Rebel, U-G, he walked in the room

Scarf rap, pair of Timberlands, beat

This the potion, roll the scroll out, speaked and another walked in

Knowing now this is a thief

We from the same voc's, this is like a pot roast

Hottest niggas who rhyme, I know them from the time,

This is not 'posed to happen

Peace Black, we wasn't cool

Threw the piece back, everything good, I lit the leaf, captain

Got a mission, to make sure the world recognize our position

I'm standing near the kitchen

Shit just might work, I lit the stink, this could be the realest shit

This could be the realest flip quick

Everybody stand up in militant, army jackets down

I said to myself, this the realest clique

True champ, we gon' rep it through, keep it cool

No boot camp, no hard work, just some loot, family

All in, ball til you fall, loyal as ever

I grab my leather, I'm a lay til you call

[Chorus x3: Raekwon]

Generals, demons, nighttime, vultures

Caught up on the ropes, let's team it

Everybody seen it, Zenith, what you mean?

Everybody C.R.E.A.M.'in', the all American dream
