Real hip-hop. Flute sample, grimey drums, heavy wordplay. A rapper's rap song.

lyrics

V1:
I marsh-mellow in mud baths, with cut grass
These school shooters need knives so they could cut class
I put my balls in a bag, and throw a clutch pass – but shi*
I’m almost 40 years old, can’t grow a mus-tache (still)
Let’s brush past, these tough facts, move on with it
I’m tall and out-of-shape so they call me long-winded
About a season I been joggin’ in place, now gotta
Taste for that bounce so I’m going King Kong with it
The chest pounding man, the whole nine yards
I’m porky piggin’ on the mission for no more time cards
I live guarded but don’t need life guards
It’s yippee-ki-yay mutherfuckers ‘til we all die hard (yeeeauh)
Now I’m not saying I see death at my door
I’m just saying I been saving ‘cuz I know its in store
And by saving I mean praising God and paying it forward
Man I been praying so hard lately I been breaking the floor

So tell me
CH1:
Good Lord (Good Lord) ….
Am I on the path of light to fight for right
Or should I be scared when I
Look forward (Look forward)
Like someday I might get swiped up by the night, oh can you tell me tell me
Good Lord (Good Lord) ….
Am I on the path of light to fight for right
Or should I be scared when I
Look forward (Look forward)
Like someday I might get swiped up by the night
oh can you tell me tell me

V2:
I’ve not mellowed in old age, there’s no way
I’m switching up from the O-Jays to Coldplay
I’m not ready for crochet or croquet (cuz man)
There’s not a second of this life I’d throw-way
But slow days are gold days, cuz’ times money
So I’m a keep on fucking round like a blind bunny
It’s kinda funny how some people could be, I’m not a
G but got respect for the Code, won’t hear a lie from me
No lines from me, I don’t tell tall tales
I only read short stories out loud and in braille (bumpbumpbump)
And I don’t care if my success small-scale, cuz’ every
Single little drip help to fill that pail (ugh)
And I got buckets like I’m ready to mop
Weight on my shoulders got too heavy to drop
So only option is to steady the rock
And think about what life will look like once our memories stop


So tell me
CH1:
Good Lord (Good Lord) ….
Am I on the path of light to fight for right
Or should I be scared when I
Look forward (Look forward)
Like someday I might get swiped up by the night, oh can you tell me tell me
Good Lord (Good Lord) ….
Am I on the path of light to fight for right
Or should I be scared when I
Look forward (Look forward)
Like someday I might get swiped up by the night
oh can you tell me tell me
Good Lord
