Iron Age
(专辑: Grief Pedigree - 2012)
[Sample:] What if you had to carry my load, huh? The
need to provide food like a
good father to fill the
mouths of his hungry men. Guns, ammunition you know how much money that costs? [Ka:] Born in a
sinning place, mourned and been at wakes Scorned the
grinning jakes, it's on, I
send the
apes Generate cake scraped off dinner plates Niggas wanna be tough, it's us they imitate Born in a
sinning place, mourned and been at wakes Scorned the
grinning jakes, it's on, I
send the
apes Generate cake scraped off dinner plates Niggas wanna be tough, it's us they imitate Me and my chrome hip, long clip, put in work, won't quit My word is bond, yours don't stick Long as it's dough to grab, I'mma hold a
mag Load the
bag, 'til I'm a
helmet and a
folded flag Known peasant, roam desert, no canteens To see if a
hand green, did dirt soap can't clean In time you'll see a
thin line between friend and rival Between you and me, stupidity amends bravado Almost died tryna make paper, now I
pen survival Mac-10's reliable in fight mode on that night road Zoned out on the
blocks, cops iso'd Raw covering, enduring suffering more like Job Here's a
flashback: stash packs by the
light pole Recipe's desperately press keys like I
write code No typo, I'm quick-witted, you type slow Promoters call me Moses by how I
spark and leave Notice, come through the
crowd, my staff parts the
sea Make fly jams for live fans that's hard to please You was badly trained while I
parry, feint, bob and weave In rough waters, niggas bolt, I
stay and never waver Y'all all sweet, I'm more unique with a
better flavor If my phonetics don't take, then I'mma net a
caper Carry the
heat, repping Hull Street then Decatur Stayed in hell all my life, I
need heaven's visa Know what's right, but can't change overnight like Ebenezer [Ka (Roc Marciano):] Born in a
sinning place, mourned and been at wakes Scorned the
grinning jakes, it's on, I
send the
apes Generate cake scraped off dinner plates Niggas wanna be tough, it's us they imitate Born in a
sinning place, mourned and been at wakes Scorned the
grinning jakes, it's on, I
send the
apes (it's on) Generate cake scraped off dinner plates Niggas wanna be tough, it's us they imitate [Roc Marciano:] I'm flattered, guys are fried and battered Housewives are battered, knives are jagged When it's static, bring an automatic to combat it I
hit the
Henny like it's padded, you panic Three from the
cannon trample you like a
woolly mammoth The
minivan vanished, I
burn 'til my eyes slanted Me and Ka set a
higher standard The
money got sent through a
wire transfer Ferrari body like exotic dancers' Eat you from the
inside like cancer (eat your heart out) I'm a
panther, you real prissy and pampered Lyrically, to me, you're a
pamper My stanzas, gotta hand 'em out to fiends like samplers But honestly, I
should've went to Stanford But what I
learned from scrambling ain't in the
pamphlet Gotta keep a
tool like repairman (yep) Can't afford to be or move careless Niggas'll put that Mac-10 to your spare ribs You heard a
prophet spoke I'm from the
projects, to get by I
sold dope Had high hopes for folks that got high on coke But used to be responsible adults Fell from grace, in love with the
way freebase taste From the
hoods of L.I. to B.K Marc
