[Chorus]
|
Su-preme (Supreme, Supreme) [x8]
|
|
Su-preme people living with they backs aligned
|
Up against the wall cause these days are asinine
|
Living in a money matrix, How cats survive
|
Some will fade away and wither, others will blast a 9
|
Kings and Queens working 9 to 5's
|
And making nothing searching for a deeper purpose in life
|
This CAN'T be life...
|
? can't be right...
|
Without no money in my pockets I just can't see right
|
I used to try to preach to younguns like, "Do right kids"
|
Now-a-days all that I can say is, "Get it how you live"
|
Live how you get it, shit!
|
Don't nobody wanna get...
|
A promotion up to fry cook like little Calvin did
|
Some would rather take a gamble, hey they might to bids
|
The allure of fast money in this hell-bound system
|
Got you look at two-hundred bucks a week
|
Versus, like a thousand in a day
|
Tell me what makes more sense to these...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Trapped like rats in mazes for the cheese
|
Every natural resource is here, We don't really need money
|
But certain people need power over people
|
They act like that cause they're trapped inside their EGO-sphere
|
And now you can't feel free
|
Without material possesions, you can't just be [Be: echo]
|
And without 'em you're left stressin, so anxiously [Be: anxiously]
|
So you grab the Smith & Wesson, then aim, then squeeze [Squeeze: echo]
|
To get what's comin' to ya
|
The block's so hot, it blew the top off the thermometer
|
The rush for drama is more appealing than a plane light
|
Cause life is insane, so insanity is a sane light
|
It's so easy to see, simple as day and night
|
SU-preme people born out of the way of the light
|
In the darkness, trying to fly straight
|
To some folks it's like being a fish swimming with sharks... shit!
|
|
(Perhaphs not since men turned their ears the preachings of a mere prophet
|
2000 years ago have the words of humble men reached so many with such force
|
? Perhaps because it has been burning for long, now smoldering
|
Now bursting into hot flames, now hastily covered over to smolder again
|
Until the next outbreak.)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
SU-preme people only want the best and uhh
|
SU-preme people won't settle for less then uhh
|
Straight from royalty put inside projects and uhh
|
Capitalist system that don't make sense to ya
|
SU-preme people put against the fence, Get up!
|
? hostile if you aint fixing the...
|
Problem you created that make these condition up
|
A little reparation for your acts are sent to us
|
SU-prome ride to die to get the bucks
|
? by any means so, uhh, lock your benzes up
|
Tuck your chain and watch and keep your defenses up
|
All they wanna do is live it up like ?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
SU-preme...
|
SU-preme...
|
SU-preme...
