Placebo
(专辑: I Died For This!? - 2021)
[GRIP:] Got a
verbal machine gun, you never seen one (Yeah, yeah) Vocab throw jabs, you thought a
bee stung, you thought your shit was heat, huh? (Yeah) The
fuck you get that beat from? Go get a
refund (Yeah) You gotta reload, infinite clips like I
got the
cheat code Spitting a
brick like I
copped from Chico You wasn't in the
mix, you watched through peephole Staring out the
window, witnessing living at a
quicker tempo But ain't no reset, this not Nintendo, our life was preset Dark is a
defect, you got the
remote, you take your seat yet? You get to see death all over C
notes I
ain't no preacher, don't be calling me woke, just ain't been sleep yet This ain't for V
necks, go get your peacoat, I
see your feet cold Just take a
deep breath and watch me heat check all of your heroes They didn't heal you, that's just placebo I'm just a
nappy headed negro aka reject My alter ego get all the
respect, but if you see, bro Off in the
streets, bet your ass would relapse If you ain't know that he raps like, fuck the
verses, he'll clutch your purses My stream of income through a
streaming service If you don't listen, they gon' deem me worthless, so I
need every purchase (Yeah) That's why I'm steady working, I'm a
heady person So I
go through dry spells, but this shit feel like a
levy bursting (Yeah) Open the
floodgates, they knew I
was special after that Snub tape Just thought l'd touch base, this is the
update [Royce da 5'9":] COVID constantly, code red boundaries, how could we While gossiping, culturally grow responsibly? Cops or the
ops to be cokeheads cop from me Them hotels got me a
protest consciously Rolex watch on me, feds clocking me, we own less Property, atrocity, mo' debt, invest stock in the
oppressed Controlling yo' net-profitting Told y'all 'bout them Jim Crow laws, that's more/less prophecy My bars be trap, my car seat's back Against odds, my cards be stacked, my Wall Street black I
dreamt all would pay me in health, it's degrading to do pilates Generational wealth, niggas say we Illuminati To be religiously Christian versus dissettlement Perfect embezzlement, bitch, we get in, worship the
devil, rich Melanin vibration indebted to God, gracious They scared of Sanaa Lathan, genetic annihilation, uh This ain't what B.I.G. meant when he came and kicked in your door New whip for niggas that walk, look rich for niggas that's poor You bang for niggas that's soft, new chain for niggas that floss You sin for niggas, that's God, you win for niggas, that's lost all Them top models come out with the
see-through panties I
bleed blue Brandy and Art Basel by the
Hebru Brantley's Yeah, I'm entitled to whites, so I
got Harvard on my app The
ops just be calling me light, then [?] falls into my lap Them execs suspended your record that'll send you a
extra exorcism So keep your respect, we just reap the
regrets of nepotism I'll dollar bill you or check, but you got to be specific I
got to keep you in check, so you got to be complicit From A
to Z, only you can compare with the
streets But only we can keep playing musical chairs with the
seats [GRIP:] Yeah, and I'm black, so I
got a
target on my back (But where you at?) Atlanta, Georgia, where I
started on the
map Was bargaining for scraps, they lethargic, I'm barging in for racks The
margin is startling, this who you thought was harder with the
raps? What's the
argument? Really ain't no guarding him, in fact I
step back, let it fly, I'm James Harden with the
strap Might just travel wit' it, to get a
shot off in the
clutch We both paid to be the
boss, but it ain't cost you as much And even bosses get touched, so keep your head on a
swivel And pray you end up at the
top and not dead in the
middle Out-of-towners pull up with diamonds and they bezel and dentals Think shit sweet 'til lil' niggas pump lead in your rental, ha Got 'em ducking shots, the
juggernaut to stuff you in a
fucking box I
just checked the
mud on top, you dug the
plot I
tuck the
Glock from which the
slugs was popped that struck the
ops Who thought this shit was butterscotch? I'm finna crank this up a
notch
