Skyzoo - Spike Lee Was My Hero feat. Talib Kweli lyrics
rate me[Hook]
I heard d’s from my pillow, right?
Made me lean out my window, right?
Knew the scene from the get go, right?
But spike lee was my hero, right
Said spike lee was my hero, right
But spike lee was my hero, right
Say you here by any means till I’m ditto
But spike lee was my hero, right
For the heroics, capes on the notice
Waiting for them to show it and trace all of the motors
The motive beyond reason to pay us all in the open
Like maybe all them below us is waiting for us to throw this
If money talks in a nother kind of slang
They hover about it against and changing all that you spoken
Like where the speech at
Tell em that you breathe that
Astmathic throw it they hang on the feedback
Fuck em all until they know that you mean that
They whippin up your driver side, diggin through your cheap pack
Talkin amsterdam and they don’t believe that
And hanging out my window help me see that
You know the saying, rubber shoulders with the cast
Like I wrote the lead
I just rode where we was at and put that over theese
Bad bitch one is about my rhonson
We all tryina get on what they want
So you know the speed
[Hook]
I heard d’s from my pillow, right?
Made me lean out my window, right?
Knew the scene from the get go, right?
But spike lee was my hero, right
Said spike lee was my hero, right
But spike lee was my hero, right
Say you here by any means till I’m ditto
But spike lee was my hero, right
You said it’s rose ...money that should be ours
The pursuing from the get, I’m true indeet for a flip
I’m doing need of a flip, but it’s true to me as it is
I’m still trully yours, I’m truthfully for the win
I’m still, doing more for you and me off the rip
I’m built by what I saw, so usually what it is
Is everything that it was
Beautifully on the strip, standing underneath it on
And hopin to get a ...i swear that they so belong
In the vol of these wild bodies
And whatever other colors...dollars
And thug of war on strike ...dunlap
Jesus shadow worse so what I took to become that
The phone booth could be where you change or where you pump at
My heroes took turns but who will run that
So for all of p, ...sleep and eat
And all the money from hands in hands that we could keep
[Hook]
I heard d’s from my pillow, right?
Made me lean out my window, right?
Knew the scene from the get go, right?
But spike lee was my hero, right
Said spike lee was my hero, right
But spike lee was my hero, right
Say you here by any means till I’m ditto
But spike lee was my hero, right
I live amongst crowd neighbors who beg louder than Al-Qaeda
Movin them keys like cal tjader, but the cheese like sound famous
Fiends looking for houses with the rocks probably cookin
On the corners, we bbq-in and the block, parties in brooklyn
The birthplace of jordan, you warm if you was hard enough
You at nights, why you think that spike’s so popular
The block is like a prison, with night vision they watchin us
On top of us with binoculars to proerly get to droppin us
I’m topical like clockers, cause crack kills
To make it a movie, but I’m makin black films with my rap skills
They standing on the corner lookin facts, lookin stressed
Havin a stoop... got respect of the brooklyn tecs
Spikes join across the street, of course I was lookin fresh
Now I’m comin for what’s mine, the hollers call it extorsion
40 acres and a porsche, with more than 400 horses
[Hook]
I heard d’s from my pillow, right?
Made me lean out my window, right?
Knew the scene from the get go, right?
But spike lee was my hero, right
Said spike lee was my hero, right
But spike lee was my hero, right
Say you here by any means till I’m ditto
But spike lee was my hero, right
One of the few who had his pops out of the old block
Told me never to settle all that the dough stop
Leave here with as much as you can hold scott
And point blank em if they ever come and show ...
Made me follow every script that’s spike of a road
So how I write is cause of them, rightfully soul
The irony of wanting everything I could be shown
But seein life as a lead, rightfully shown.
