Lyrics Yesterday's News - The Koreatown Oddity

Yesterday's News

Uh, uh, yeah
We got my man Rex Ruffin in the house
Ay yo
Get your paper, meet your maker
Before they take ya, hurry up and create somethin'
Cause you could be the shit today
And yesterday’s news tomorrow
Don’t think it can’t happen to you
It’s gon' happen to me and all y’all
The inevitable curtain call
Peace to all the people that passed on
And left some great things before singin' they swan song
And I ain’t goin' out like Len Bias
With my dreams cut short before they ever startin' flyin'
Watch the company you keep, that unintentionally
Can be the reason why you ain’t been what you might’ve
Y’all don’t hear me though
Get your paper, meet your maker
Before they take ya, hurry up and create somethin'
Cause you could be the shit today
And yesterday’s news tomorrow
Don’t think it can’t happen to you
It’s gon' happen to me and all y’all
The inevitable curtain call
Peace to all the people who passed on
And left some great things before singin' they swan song
My pops said, «We gonna die two deaths»
He said, «I ain’t tryna scare you, just want you to be prepared
Cause when I’m gone, all this wisdom you inherit»
I think about his words, smokin' izzum on the stairs
My time is valuable, don’t wanna spend it with no sheriffs
I wanna cherish it
You can be lit on my narrative 'cause life’s unfair to you
But don’t deploy ya parachute before you’re in the air, my dude
Uh, uh, one-two, one-two, uh
So get your paper, meet your maker
Before they take ya, hurry up and create somethin'
Cause you could be the shit today
And yesterday’s news tomorrow
Don’t think it can’t happen to you
It’s gon' happen to me and all y’all
The inevitable curtain call
Peace to all the people who passed on
And left some great things before singin' they swan song
I know we all be plannin' things for tomorrow
Sometimes procrastinating, sayin' that we can do it later
But listen to me, you may not get that chance if you waitin'
And if you feel my statements take this day by storm
It’s all yours
