Roots - Stay Cool lyrics
rate me[Black Thought]<br />
Bass for your face, highs for your eyes<br />
Don't blink, Black Ink has arrived, all rise<br />
Rudebwoys keep dem thing at your side, be alright<br />
Muh'fuckers Philly we up in here, we all live<br />
I'm puffin this Cohiba mami coolin her heels<br />
All she ever seem to do is play it cool f'real<br />
She be pushin, pop vessel, and her shoes is ill<br />
But her hand, keep slippin on the woodgrain wheel<br />
But it's cool, we never slippin when there's moves to make<br />
Especially when what we talkin ain't ya usual cake<br />
I pump bass for y'all bathin apes, to get charged<br />
Nah, I'm not a dealer, I'm a poet at large<br />
We in the wind with the roof back, lettin the breeze hit us<br />
The bathrobe on with sweatpants and slippers<br />
Comin to pay a visit to whoever on the hitlist<br />
Some of y'all been tryin for years, you'll never get this fool<br />
<br />
Check it out (stay cool) stay cool daddy (stay cool)<br />
Stay cool ma (hey, hey) c'mon<br />
(Stay cool motherfuckers y'all know the rules)<br />
(Hey, stay cool.. stay cool)<br />
There it is (Yeah hah hah, stay coooool)<br />
<br />
[Black Thought]<br />
Hip-Hop my main bitch, I got a few on the side<br />
The game stitched y'all I'm doin my job<br />
Go up against enormous odds<br />
Wouldn't break a sweat, money make her bet<br />
Funny son you threat, well I ain't shakin yet<br />
Twenty-fo'/sev' chillin, tougher than penicillin<br />
From the block where the crooked cops killin like a villain<br />
Children, in the hood gettin rocked by they buildings<br />
And brothers, 'cross the board gettin knocked by the millions<br />
The stress, got me ignitin the potent marijuana leaf<br />
Tryin to play it cooler than a polar bear colony<br />
You feel the music know I'm over there probably<br />
Pimpin on the same system that forever shorted me<br />
I got the soul of a young Sam Cooke when I spit<br />
It make you wanna make a new dance up<br />
It's all to the good shorty 'gwan do that stuff<br />
It's not another sound system rockin steady as us<br />
And it's cool<br />
<br />
(Stay cool) yeah (stay cool) stay cool ha<br />
(Hey, hey) check it out, and just<br />
(Stay cool motherfuckers y'all know the rules) yeah<br />
(Hey, stay cool.. stay cool)<br />
(Yeah hah hah, stay coooool)<br />
<br />
[Black Thought]<br />
Yeah, when I'm crusin in my vehicle, the chase harass me<br />
They never ride past me, they really comin at me right<br />
They wanna know where the drugs guns and cash be<br />
Probably wanna get me to run, so they can blast me<br />
Just, blast me in your box, play my shit<br />
I know it's crowded at the top, cause I'm on the tip<br />
And that's as high up at the top, as a brother could get<br />
And how I do it make a lot of muh'fuckers upset<br />
But it's fine, re-gizzlin I'm back for mine<br />
In case y'all gettin tired of the same ol' shine<br />
And I'm calm, calculated and perfectly aligned<br />
The way I'm operatin what is a surgery of rhyme<br />
It's not a thang when I lower the gradient lens frames<br />
I'm cooler than Clyde Stubblefield, drummer for James<br />
Hip-Hop is out of Hustleville, comin for change<br />
I exercise 'til a muscle build, breakin the chains<br />
And I'm cool<br />
<br />
(Stay cool) (stay cool) (hey, hey)<br />
(Stay cool motherfuckers y'all know the rules)<br />
(Hey, stay cool.. stay cool)<br />
(Yeah hah hah, stay coooool)
