Luke Cage

(альбом: Lyrics To GO, Vol. 2 - 2021)

Remember running for the buses in the train? Uh
Remember we was broke and had to hop the train? Uh
Remember when she let you get the second base?
Smoking Reggie on the school roof, trust me bro, it's safe, uh
Suppressed most of my teen life
Was hoping they would go with the rewrite
I always had a dream to be as bright as the streetlights
I feel like I'ma cheat death the way that I cheat life, yeah
I took all of my problems and turned them shits into dollars
I stay away from the drama, I sit and watch like iguanas
My family tree is Brooklyn for generations, this city my education
Brownsville, Clinton Hill and Gowanus
I'd rather keep my ana over Dolce & Gabanna
I'm the chosen one, king over kindness, son of T'Challa
Me and all my brothers was for the streets like Madonna
And now we out in Italy sipping and eating pasta
It's a new day, if you ain't on this ship, you is too late
You mixing D'USSÉ with the Kool-Aid
My flow is like the water, call me Bobby like Boucher
Took a couple Ls, still a legend like Cool J
I think I'm finishing the chapter, 'bout to flip to a new page
People fighting nature, talking 'bout, "I don't do change"
Paint the perfect picture, throw that shit in a new frame
I show up when I'm needed, save my city like Luke Cage, yeah
