Refugee |
I just turned down a Univision promo |
Hell no |
I live in slow mo |
But sometimes I gotta lower the people’s elbow |
Only promise was my name on a fat check |
And travel to a beach where I could catch rays rather than catch wreck |
I earned the type of rep Prep taught me at Aspects |
Always teach babies in bassinets |
My road be traveled mad less |
Winding through forests and passed tents |
Mountains, till they talk about me in the past tense |
My blood be the A+ |
I didn’t know what Staten Island was 'til Wu-Tang and King Just |
While I was playing duck hunt brothers were sitting ducks |
So if I’m still breathing then i’m just dinged up |
I got strong in the process |
From sinning with the saints, kicking game with the prophets |
Decided at the gate to keep my name out of gossip |
I found that keeping faith prove fruitful |
Muchos gracias |
It be the refugeeeeeeeee! |
Maybe I should write short stories and screenplays |
It’s hard out here for a rapper, these days |
First off, I ain’t never live in the PJs |
Second off, I ain’t got no money for DJs |
We got, PD (jake) |
TD Jakes |
We got, cats that barely ate |
That’s why they belly ache |
Ain’t no wonder why these charlatans half step |
Throw em on the cover of a mag, ain’t nobody gon' fact check |
I’m not into fashion |
I claw to grasp greener pastures with a passion |
That don’t involve any cash as it can’t fit in a casket |
Well actually it can, just ask Christians that are Catholic |
I go into class sick |
I sperate the half full glasses from the classic |
The case out of the basket |
Bastards |
It be the refugeeeeeeeee! |
So beat from making records can’t believe I could still move |
Pushing the borrowed wheels without insurance |
Yo, Wolf is a cool dude |
The city of LA seem foreign |
Red is flamed out |
Even though there’s blue flame |
And most flame’s orange |
I see the trees for the forest |
My publicist is paying for it |
She stay at odds with the blogs for the tourists |
Who think they in the place to be, but not |
Like bees at a florist |
They D porous |
I meddle in they affairs like they bears eating porridge |
Won’t give they diamonds back, though they heard stories |
Of folks wit diamonds on they back, like a stegosaurus |
Or Arizona baseball snake |
Winner take all, high stakes |
Look like a fine day to fly away into divine grace |
Muah |
