| I get hit with something phat just when I’m feeling I got no gift
|
| To give the world, unbound, it all gets turned around
|
| I’ve earned a firm place in this with the permasound
|
| Ever been around a winning sound without even knowing?
|
| It’s the story of my career, sometimes, now I’m grinnin', owing
|
| Slim pickings dumb, became a little bit plumper
|
| And when she started showin' attitude I was like, «No problem if I dump her.»
|
| Stroll down the corridors of this industry wards
|
| With more knowledge of how to gain more
|
| So eat my shorts
|
| I peep my ports
|
| I gotta be across the country in four hours
|
| Hit the fo-tel
|
| Go tell my folks I’m here
|
| Smoke some beer
|
| Drink some herb and all that wild stuff that stars do
|
| The only difference is, integrity out the ass and I’m stayin' true
|
| And you better be flexible partner
|
| If I’ll be payin' you
|
| I feel a bit nervous, I got some prayin' to do
|
| Man, ain’t I just an oddity to outshine the moon?
|
| With quality and quantity to fill your afternoon
|
| Drivin' around in headphone while I’m in a coffee saloon
|
| Puttin' mo' good stuff down, feelin' the urge to croon
|
| My world got such a wild variety to choose from
|
| Things can be so good, you’d wonder where I’d get the blues from
|
| But things can get so bad I feel like good won’t return 'em
|
| I’m a basket case with fantastic taste at a drastic pace
|
| Okay Monday was cool
|
| I woke up, I read the paper
|
| I rolled downtown, and looked around and got naked
|
| Tuesday was chill
|
| I sold tapes on the corner
|
| Hit up the radio station and dropped a little promo
|
| Wednesday was tight
|
| Blockbuster night and long distance
|
| Calls on the phone with operator assistance
|
| My Thursday was bumpin'
|
| Made love for six hours straight
|
| Then grabbed my cans and painted freight trains till late
|
| Friday was grand with my arch in my hand
|
| Recorded more damn songs than I can humanly stand
|
| Saturday was sleep day
|
| Sunday, L.A. baby
|
| Rent me a Bentley and pretended I’m in the Navy
|
| See what I mean?
|
| You ain’t gotta be so one dimensional
|
| I rap with a gentle flow
|
| I chill where the lentils grow
|
| And implement my senses for that old foresight
|
| And indulge in more travels and food and more mics
|
| Cause I gotta get around
|
| Gots to get around
|
| I gotta fill up my life with alllll that, all that good stuff in the promise
|
| land
|
| My world got such a wild variety to choose from
|
| Things can be so good, you’d wonder where I’d get the blues from
|
| But things can get so bad I feel like good won’t return 'em
|
| I’m a basket case with fantastic taste at a drastic pace |
