(Chill with that ill behavior) - KRS sample
|
|
Pull the pin out, sheep creep in wolf garb
|
Fronted by the Hail Mary parry lunge mixer
|
Kill the populace for stability, jeopardy's a stickler
|
Its bob and weave amalgam played the falcon to your fixture
|
I branch out, arms flailing backwards
|
wailin upon a tidy sound circuit
|
slightly foul Gershwin
|
with a bed of nails and drumlust plus disgusted service
|
workin in shifts opposite the asbestos brain furnace
|
I be the now observatory eye ear antenna feeler
|
Spittin like a dragon with a similar demeanor
|
stood innocent bystand witness the diehard fans turn Rip Van
|
in the poppy fields of N.Y.'s orchestrated brick gauntlet
|
Now I'm thinkin who am I Jabberwocky Superfly bent left
|
Pushin war without the ten step cushion and what (what)
|
I plan to hold this beat positive sacred in these golde veins
|
Until the day I die from grimace overload
|
It's shock (it's shock)
|
treatment offered by the weekend
|
dystopian getaway, let's display the sequence it goes:
|
One for the heartless thievery turning my guardian angel harpless
|
And the rest to sweep the mess under the carpet (under the carpet)
|
I drag a yellow taxi meter behind every measure
|
And charge cats for labeling me shepherd
|
"That'll be Six Fifty plus tip darlin,
|
I take cash, credit, check, money-order, gold and cigarette cartons"
|
Huh, got caught up in the universe tryin to zoom in on stardom
|
Forgot the passion plus the hatred, both were based in Carbon
|
Next time you wanna be a hero try saving somethin other than hip-hop
|
And maybe hip-hop'll save you from the pit-stop
|
Kill em all, yield
|
(naw man It wasn't me it was Holden Caulfield brother
|
I just read and pulled the trigger)
|
Oh God, well leave me to tiptoe past the pearly gates
|
capture the halo, jet back to base, step past the chase
|
the bad taste of jet-lag and weight slackers
|
There aint nothin broken, where you at?
|
The pistons pump perfect, where you at?
|
The bass tone is Merlin, where you at?
|
This service is a urgent workin surgeons
|
Purging formulas lookin for an improper cause is whack
|
|
(Chorus 2x)
|
What are you saving, honestly? (honestly, honestly)
|
What are you saving, honestly? (honestly, no honestly)
|
What are you saving, honestly? (damn)
|
Promise me you gon shut the fuck up and recognize
|
What you holdin aint really broken?
|
|
I don't flick neeedles like my sick friend (friend)
|
I don't march like Beetle Bailey through a quick trend (trend)
|
I don't frequent church's steeples on my weekend (end)
|
And I don't comment if you formulate a weak Zen.
|
All I ever really wanted was a getaway
|
I'ma take a chance by letting the rook slide forward outta my hands
|
I can not agree to follow a leader along the borderline of war
|
without a reason for the ready, aim, score
|
Bring out your dead we can put em in a pile
|
and burn em with the novels for the kiddies to admire
|
Kill the ones that speak from a different life
|
Brewin other killer noise makin the sentiment...
|
Okay, welcome to the Kamikaze bottle rocket cockpit
|
Live by the icy cold hand of bad intention youth blender
|
Oh yeah I'll let God warm the bench for now but
|
I'll ascend to spin y'all dizzy
|
(and for the record I'm bringin my t.v. with me)
|
Yo, let the commoners speak publicly
|
Then disperse eye jammies for cats that swear by third pupil
|
But can't see past the loophole
|
Motherfucker, my word is born like Siamese triplets
|
With doctor, lawyer, rocket scientist promise
|
(let em grow leisurely)
|
Hey Mom, I'ma fix without my probe along this path
|
Once my shpeel's perfected I'ma save you a seat in the front row
|
Of Aesop Rock's twelve steps to shut the fuck up seminar
|
And when all these bickering crowds turn solid you gon be proud
|
I tack hacks to the (backboard)
|
Honesty's a (latchcord)
|
Fury's far from (obsolete)
|
Serenity's a (crack war)*
|
Raw caricature of mayhem standard branded by the labor
|
With a thousand reasons to end this for every one of you saviors
|
Saw the brightest burst ironically wide from the vacant stage
|
Gave it a pound for burning where bunk ratio's engaged
|
Keep me posted as to when you grasp something mature to
|
sit and sulk about mister, and I'll consider pickin up your record
|
|
(Chorus 2x)
|
|
|
The Authors, they aint got nothin to save
|
The Overground, man they aint got nothin to save
|
Def Jux, they aint got nothin to save
|
The Addams Family, they aint got nothin to save
|
Weightless, they aint got nothin to save
|
Stronghold man, they aint got nothin to save
|
Rhymesayers baby, they aint got nothin to save
|
Aesop Rock, I aint got nothin to save
|
|
it's llike that
|
***- crack whore
