Shabazz Palaces - …down 155th in the MCM Snorkel lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

We was escaping the bleak, pursuing a feeling

Pressure pushed them towards the instinct of brilliance

Capture then scraping the breaks off to build songs

They was in the park between the buildings

And they dancing face like ah-hah and mhm-hmm

Voice would echo calling, slap off the buildings

Anticipating ceremony to begin

Food provided by the neighborhood dealers

They phrase nothing-words like biting and chilling

Biting meant that you was stealing and illing

And so thusly you were definitely not chilling

They wouldn't fuck with you just fuck with the real ones

We had sayings called like 52s and fair ones

Ya’ll just got it all you ain’t have to kill 'em

9’s Calibers, for bullshit you air, huh?

And your music make us real niggas cheer up

Now my girlfriend name is Bemore Witstriever

And her door knockers was bamboos, believe that

And I twitched on laser course that was creased up

Seen a god, Dapper Dan, down, and trucked up

The type of MC you be back then is sucka

Dons call ‘em honey dips, gold and grey money clips

Selling out was not the lick of anot-another's clique

Wasn’t cool just cause you rich...

Sit here, bang shots, bled up hers

Black and Puerto Rican stars

Twin rock the baddest furs, Latifah pull on fetishes

Maximas was kitted up

Yeah yeah yeah
