Up Up Up Lyrics
Are you listenin' now? Are you feelin' that way? Aren't you terrified? Of wakin' up too tired to try again? Are you happy now That you've shut yourself down Are you paralyzed By all the nonsense that's gone down I know you're gonna see these things someday Sorry-eyed we spent so much of your time Now
Are you listenin' now? Are you feelin' that way? Aren't you terrified? Of wakin' up too tired to try again? Are you happy now That you've shut yourself down Are you paralyzed By all the nonsense that's gone down I know you're gonna see these things someday Sorry-eyed we spent so much of your time Now

[Verse 1]
Yo I'm hot like 95 Fahrenheit
On a summer night, tight spot where bodies rot
Rats drink from water drops, in the streets niggaz
Little kids scared cops, wit RED dots
Philosophical gangsta, WITH violent priors
Goin back like black and white TV's wit pliers
Leanin on broke down cars, wit flat tires
Flash iron ON anybody tryin on the blocks I'm supplyin on
MARICON, my peeps, tie ballons up
And swallow 'em and the penal got goons, lots of 'em
Cops see them
Two For A Dollar Lyrics
Last Saturday morning I shut off the alarm Drove out in the valley to old Dan Cook's farm A sign on the fence post put up with one nail read 10 a.m. sharp for big public sale At least forty people were out in the yard Looking for bargains they were dealing real hard To buy up the pieces and find out the worth of fifty years living so
and run, don't want no dramaLast Saturday morning I shut off the alarm Drove out in the valley to old Dan Cook's farm A sign on the fence post put up with one nail read 10 a.m. sharp for big public sale At least forty people were out in the yard Looking for bargains they were dealing real hard To buy up the pieces and find out the worth of fifty years living so
Certain parts of the streets, the beast don't want a part of
MARTYR, hood haunted like the Dakota
Where John Lennon was shot up, but he sang for peace
He BANGED for freedom, hanged wit wild Jamaicans
From Kingston, who drink Irish Moss
Listenin to Peter Winston, Machintosh
Lightning hits the top of the church steeple
When I'm writin, semi-automatic no hyphen
It's frightening.... [scratches]
[Chorus]
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move wit

Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move wit

As i walked to kendall square, and crossed the river basin there, the charles was black, the sky was blue, the view was old, the bridge was new. and past the flow's constricted mouth, commercial lines flowed mostly south, or east across a boundless sea, where rising soon, the star would be. the tides are moved by sun and m

[Verse 2]
I take summers off, cause I love winter beef
Started '87, wit the shotty AND THE SHEEP
Three-quarter length beige, dressed to kill
Bust a shell at the ground, pellets hit the crowd
Nobody like a snitch, everybody shut they mouth
WOOLRICH CARHART, gun powder stains
Smellin like trees, SENSIMIL on the brain
Skeemin on ya girls BAMBOOS on ya chain
Got ill up on the train, twistin off a cap
Of THE English in my VEIN, might of pushed you
Reputation Lyrics
YEAH! I'm coming hard, so hard Like a demon, burning like a demon Don't ask me why The world's on fire I'm rolling hard, so hard Like the ocean, rolling like the ocean Don't send a Handy Maid to stop a tidal wave, oh yeah!

I'm coming hard, so hard Like a demon, burning like a demon Don't ask me why The world's on fire I'm rolling hard, so hard Like the ocean, rolling like the ocean Don't send a Handy Maid to stop a tidal wave, oh yeah! We're rolling on, so hard, Across the nation, rolling 'cross the nation We're tapping into that U
Deaf crack fiends, who can't speak, scream noises
Cause you bought a drum of soap, from one of my boys, it's
.... Just another day in the hood
And I'm, wit some wild brothers, up to no good
We saw the movies, like Tony Montana, and 'em
But our style was let them PILE, then--we robbin 'em
Money dudes, make 'em come up out they shoes
Run they jewels, word is BORN, WHY my man Nino goin
And I had to make a song, speakin on my old life
For the THIEVES who come out at night
[Chorus]
[Outro]
