Crash & Burn Lyrics


As I blaze, can't help but think about my little nephew
My young nigga, Joe Roc, and all of the little niggaz
Walkin' the bloody trail, followin' the footsteps of this hell
We call AmericaYoung niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but haters
And snakes, and sinners, and fuckin' perpetrators
Young niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but fire
And niggaz will kill ya ass quicker than Michael MyersYoung niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but hustlas
Drugs smugglas, and reel life ghetto strugglas
Young niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but evil
People seekin' redrum wit' they body leakin'Young niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but money
Win or lose, fritos up in Detroit casinos
Young niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but pressure

And niggaz be on the ground, like the lookin' for buried treasureYoung niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but snake bitches
All about they things, don't give a fuck about no niggaz
Young niggaz stay strapped
Even wit' a baby, the mental stress alone will drive your ass crazyYoung niggaz stay strapped
Gotta keep your head together and open up your eyes
Or be out cold forever
Young niggaz stay strapped
Never bribe to the crime, they can't trace the styles, too hard of a designYoung niggaz stay strapped
Diabolical, biological, DNA, they match ya hair follicle
Young niggaz stay strapped
Police trouble you, CCW, don't be slippin' in the bubble
'Cuz ya brain's numbYoung niggaz stay strapped
Warfare be mental and if you get cooked, it ain't coincidental
Young niggaz stay strapped
'Till ya getcha play off, offence might blitz, so you keep ya sawed offYoung niggaz stay strapped
Trapped up so you don't get wrapped up in a body bag
Fresh ink on ya toe tag
Young niggaz stay strapped
Through all four seasons, blood money be the reason
Niggaz triggas be squeezin'Young niggaz stay strapped
For protection in ya section, I be flexin' a slug and brain connection
Young niggaz stay strapped
For the robbas, and the jackas, and the sneak attackas
Ambushes out the bushesYoung niggaz stay strapped
When you gotcha top dropped, gotta keep the Glock cocked
No safety, ready to rockReady to rock, stay strapped up
Ready to rock, stay strapped up
Ready to rock, stay strapped up
Ready to rock, stay strapped upAs I fall, I twist and turn, I fly through the sky, I crash and burn
As I fall, I twist and turn, I fly through the sky, I crash and burn
As I fall, I twist and turn, I fly through the sky, I crash and burn
As I fall, I twist and turn, I fly through the sky, I crash and burnYoung niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz ain't nothin' out here but preachers
Crazy kids in the classrooms, gunnin' down the teachers
Young niggaz stay strapped
When you gettin' high, never wonder why people die
Killas murder without an alibiYoung niggaz stay strapped
Witcha ammunition 'cuz you just might be on another mission
Young niggaz stay strapped
Ricochet, bullets stray, you might die one day from the evil gun playYoung niggaz stay strapped
'Cuz that's my slogan, when I'm rollin' and controllin', still pistol holdin'
Young niggaz stay strapped
If you wanna stay alive keep a .45 tucked in ya drawers by ya sideYoung niggaz stay strapped
Drugs, cocaine, insane, bullet to the brain, no pain, no gain
Young niggaz stay strapped
Even when you in the rain, fuck the fame, just come and take aim
When the cannons start bustin' all they seen was flamesYoung niggaz stay strapped
When the cannons start bustin' all they seen was flames
When the cannons start bustin' all they seen was flames

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Esham (born Rashaam Smith on September 20, 1973) is a hardcore rapper from Detroit, Michigan. He calls his style of rock-influenced rap "acid rap". He released his first album, Boomin' Words from Hell, in 1990 at the age of 16, and attending Osbourne High School in Detroit.

That same year he teamed up with Detroit natives TnT and Mastamind and formed the group Natas, whose controversial debut Life After Death has been blamed for the suicide of a Tennessee youth. After another EP released in 1992 entitled Hellter Skkkelter dropped, Esham's most recognized and most controversial album 1993's KKKill the Fetus hit stores. The cover of this album depicted an unborn fetus and the title track was a song explaining why unfit, drug addicted mothers should chose abortion over birth. Esham followed up with Natas' Blaz4me and another solo Closed Casket. This was all a prelude to another controversial release, Doubelievengod. Tracks such as "Pop Pop", "Sunday School", and "Heaven" set an unprecedented mark for evilness in rap music. Esham later released his final album on RLP, Dead Flowerz. This was a transitional period into Esham's new Gothom label. Bruce Wayne/Gothom City introduced the world to the new age Esham. After this release the head nodding, trunk rattling Multikillionaire was released.

After a 2-year break, E hit the scene with the colorful Mail Dominance CD. This CD had everything from slow jams, retrospectives on lost ones, wickedness, to 50's samples. The next release is what many feel was the critically acclaimed WWW.com. In 2001, Esham released what would become his smoothest album, Tongues. Followed by Natas 6th release Godlike. Esham resume of albums includes 10 full albums, 4 EPs, 3 greatest hits compilations, and 6 releases with Natas. Not to mention working with and producing for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Ghetto E, Kool Keith, Insane Clown Posse, and the Dayton Family. From 1989 to 2005, Esham has given fans his heavy doses of Reel Life, Heavy Mental music. Esham truly revolutionized Detroit's rap sound and is a local legend.

Eminem has listed Esham as an influence, as he mentions on his debut album, The Slim Shady LP. Esham's next album, A1 Yola, was released April 19th, 2005 by Psychopathic Records. Included with the album was also a DVD with videos to every song, making Esham the first artist to make a music video for every song on an album. Towards the end of 2005 Esham could no longer be a part of Psychopathic Records. His last concert under the label was at the 5th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos. He contributed to the Soopa Villainz project and later left. The split was on bad terms according to acidrap.com. The reason, also according to acidrap.com, was that Psychopathic Records did not allow him to use the name The Unholy,The Black Devil or the group NATAS. Athough bitterness was expressed by both parties directly after the split, Esham and Psychopathic have since publicly apoligized to one another, and stated that any past grievances are water under the bridge.

On June 6, 2006 (6/6/06) Esham released the Judgement Day box set, Rap's first $100 box set, available only through the Natas website. This set includes Judgement Day Vol.1 and 2, the previously unreleased Judgement Day Vol.3 and 4, a new 6 track Esham EP, and a DVD featuring concert footage from '04. Only 1,000 have been produced.
