Stay Warm
(专辑: Johnny's Mood - 1960)
I
ain't gone for, I'm just trying to stay warm in a
world that's so cold, And no matter what you've been told I
ain't gone for, That's why I
won't grow old in a
world that's so cold Remember mom always told us to cut the
Rap shit And get a
good education we could fall back with, She went keep it clean rap sheets sons, We went running down the
tracks looking up to bits and macking em, We went the
wrong way very dedicated, Our bets were made when we were fifteen, We were some hardcore motherfucking hip-hop rats, Ain't alot of rappers out there can get away with that, It's all chit for chat thought it was tip the
tap, I
hit a
lot of people off they ain't hit me back, But now I'm back in the
pit thought I'd hit you with a
track that can show you how sappy rap can get. Dreams are swinging by the
top of the
trees, We walking in mud reaching up to the
knees and peeps are talking they can talk all they want, We been walking a
while now we can walk some more. And no matter what you've been told I
ain't gone for, I'm just trying to stay warm in a
world that's so cold, And no matter what you've been told I
ain't gone for, That's why I
won't grow old in a
world that's so cold. You know we always moved up streams, storms blowing in my face, One of the
last living survivors of a
dying race, Fuck rap nowadays it's a
race for the
paper chasing I'm like a
wellfare case, But you know those for breath in space. Don't wanna leave this place but the
dreaming days are over, The
dreams change me and when you sower and the
weather is colder, Mind stays young but the
body grows older, And everybody's so young and their minds one colder, I
ain't holding no grudges I
show many a
cold shoulder, I'm an old cold Hip-Hop soldier and I've earned my stripes, I
pay produced and I
can tell for shell toast, Placed outside the
door breaking on the
cell floor, I
was painting on the
trains like daily, Had a
couple of girls fainting in 98 and made the
underground hate me And see fifteen years of rap's really made me, Plus I've been breaking since i
was a
little baby so you can hate me. And no matter what you've been told I
ain't gone for, I'm just trying to stay warm in a
world that's so cold, And no matter what you've been told I
ain't gone for, That's why I
won't grow old in a
world that's so cold. I
wrote my first rhyme back in '89 in a
different world, A
distinct state of mind, years passed and they played my mind, And it feels a
piece of it has stayed behind. Now peeps are acting like we ain't alive claiming we should quit the
game maybe save some time, But I
obey my craving seems I'm always back to play ain't no saying why, I
ain't rhyme and a
save the
world I'll be the
greatest MC and play a
thug, I
guess I'll stay in the
mud, and you can stay and curse my way all the
way to church, Been like this since I
came to earth a
thirsty little bastard I'm staying thirsty, I'll always step on stage no matter if we main act or we playing first. And no matter what you've been told I
ain't gone for, I'm just trying to stay warm in a
world that's so cold, And no matter what you've been told I
ain't gone for, that's why i
won't grow old in a
world that's so cold. I
ain't gone for.
