Taxi Driver |
I’m the taxi driver |
Ridin around with me and my thoughts |
In the back seat behind me speakin |
To me while I’m drivin, I’m hearin 'em talk |
To me sayin' where they wanna go |
Soon as they get in and they close the door |
And then I cruise to wherever we ridin' |
Wherever you can imagine from coast to coast |
I got a foot on the gas, I got my eye on the road |
With an open mind as I roll, hopin to spy on my soul |
I lose control, pull up to a liquor store then get blowed |
Ridin down skid row, feelin kind of miserable |
I been the same since my enemies came |
You play the game, you get a foul, the penalty’s pain |
Though I got a pen full of poison, the venom is fame |
The light changes, I take a right on Memory Lane |
And see, a couple niggas on the corner chillin |
Lookin more and more familiar closer to 'em I get |
I pull up, hit the locks, they open the door |
And hop in and say they names is Hip and Hop |
So I grin, pretend I don’t know 'em for shit |
I ask «Ay, homie, why they call you Hip?» |
He says «I'm hip-notic, hip-ocritical |
I could say Dear Mama and wonder why they call you bitch |
I seen drama, I step to the odds lookin at death in the eyes |
They probably murder me, check my disguise |
You see it’s money over bitches, bitches bring lies |
Money bring trouble and trouble wanna follow me |
Drop me on the corner of Flamingo and Koval |
And remember all eyes on you |
Then I come to a stop, he exits the car |
So I leave and I hear shots |
I’m the taxi driver |
Ridin around with me and my thoughts |
In the back seat behind me speakin |
To me while I’m drivin, I’m hearin 'em talk |
To me sayin' where they wanna go |
Soon as they get in and they close the door |
And then I cruise to wherever we ridin' |
Wherever you can imagine from coast to coast |
I’m the taxi driver, ridin with one passenger left |
About to catch a left after I catch my breath |
Peelin' past them times where niggas blast them nines |
Paranoid, done already lost half my mind |
I’m high thinkin' like what if the feds try to out me? |
I pull up to a stop on a red light at South Street |
I catch a parade goin by, full of rappers and snappers |
A Cadillac float full of trapsters |
Carryin a sign sayin «It's Our Time» |
I wave sayin I would never diss y’all grind |
So I’m waitin at the stoplight, South Street is jumpin |
I look back at Hop like, people call you Hop, right? |
(Yes!) |
After that, he’s like «It's a green light |
You can weave right through, if you got keen sight |
To make you a right then, head for the valley |
I’m Going Going to Cali Cali, uhh |
Trust me, Mo Money Mo Problems |
Especially when you built for the stars |
You rather be, drivin your taxi than killed for the car |
So drop me on the corner of Wilshire Boulevard» |
I take him to the place he requested |
I tell him thanks for the message, the cab shakes when he exits |
I pull off Hypnotized then hear shots |
And then my engine die soon as they kill Hop |
What’s on your mind? |
Who’s in your back seat? |
Do you go off your own thoughts? |
Are you even drivin your own car? |
I know what you thinkin, «This nigga sayin Hip Hop is dead» |
Don’t take song like I’m sayin we lost Hip Hop, take it like I lost my mind |
I’m the taxi driver |
Ridin around with me and my thoughts |
In the back seat behind me speakin |
To me while I’m drivin, I’m hearin 'em talk |
To me sayin' where they wanna go |
Soon as they get in and they close the door |
And then I cruise to wherever we ridin' |
Wherever you can imagine from coast to coast |
