| There’s a reason why i rerelease and redo each track til it feels new
|
| In fact but here’s just a few
|
| I want my best shit known as soon its finished
|
| But i don’t polish it, that’s why quality sucks and i acknowledge it
|
| The first time you hear it you like it, but you were drunk and the mic clipped
|
| Or maybe the hype track slipped back between dope and wack
|
| You wanted the track to be the type where people move they feet
|
| Or maybe you just think you could do the verse better on another beat whatever
|
| There’s reasons, and some are cash related
|
| I need to raise funds to fuel the fire fill it full of drugs
|
| And booze and do a highwire act on the road kerouac
|
| I unload steady doses from the good doctor
|
| Read a lot about the way things supposed to go down
|
| But i do what i feel is right, right now, so what now?
|
| Gotta have the hot shit wherever i go
|
| I don’t do this for the dough, but how you s’pose a rep grows
|
| I tour for like 9 months a year, and i’m all for
|
| Putting out an album, release it once and get pounds
|
| But i never have the money it costs to press 1000
|
| So i make em in batches and keep my costs down
|
| I like to take time to consider the route my rhyme patterns take
|
| Along the track, kick snare hi hat break
|
| I get em done dumped and half done, but um oh well
|
| Does this tactic in fact hurt well, time will tell
|
| I don’t make my music fast, see a song takes time
|
| But if you take time with songs, they get better all the time
|
| I take a song out to dinner tryin work the nerve to touch it
|
| Maybe let it share my forty full of whiskey from kentucky
|
| Some lucky 7 fuck it heaven’s closer than i thought
|
| Maybe i’m supposed to make a go at getting hip and quitting pot
|
| But i’m addicted to bootleggin so i’m sorry if you spot
|
| Another version of the cd that you bought i’m sorry
|
| This is an intro to my album
|
| Read the info on the artwork
|
| It’ll tell youhow to reach me
|
| There’ll be a barcode, and a logo
|
| And you’ll know for a fact that every actual track made
|
| Comes from the guts when the dues are back paid
|
| No more bootlegging its so retarded
|
| Now open your bottles lets get started |
