Haiku D'Etat

Aceyalone:<br /> It's not a problem that I can't fix<br /> 'cause I can do it with my bag of tricks<br /> they're playing for keeps and for kicks<br /> but they're building with popsicle sticks instead of bricks<br /> the time ticks, the atmosphere gets thick<br /> I breathe in, it makes me sick to my stomach<br /> if you got any kind of fix I want it<br /> sometimes I think the attic's haunted<br /> but it's not, it's just me<br /> so I keep strutting and keep pushing my buttons<br /> but I'm not about to be pushed over the edge<br /> I made this pledge<br /> not by you, my brother or by Sister Sledge<br /> now I know that I'm not your boss<br /> and I'm not trying to floss or come across lost<br /> I wipe the frost until the glass is clear<br /> and I exhaust the possibilities of showing fear<br /> 'cause the bigger the scare, the heavier the tear<br /> and the wetter the drop and then you flood the crops<br /> and we just don't want to be flooded<br /> we cut it when we can't cut it we strutted we stay budded up<br /> we keep it up and cut it up until we gotta shut up<br /> <br /> Chorus (x2):<br /> Haiku De Tat, make my music for the people who want to get down<br /> <br /> Abstract Rude:<br /> It ain't a lunch time I like to miss<br /> I ain't a punch line type lyricist<br /> and if you had beef you'd fight with your fists<br /> my people suffer from lack of knowledge and righteousness<br /> streets so wild we developed a frown<br /> and a keen sense for knowing when it's going down<br /> play it cool<br /> say some shit that surprise me, my face don't change<br /> serious 'bout them chips like a poker game<br /> I come frequently like these Oakland trains<br /> I freestyled it in a show and never wrote it the same<br /> Aaron Pointer came to reign and say something<br /> Eddie Hayes stays a little ways from me<br /> the west side combination is legendary<br /> home studios, cause by any means necessary<br /> completed projects is my productivity<br /> gimme food smoke and electricity<br /> and if the power is ever cut off<br /> I got a generator up in the loft<br /> to stay energized, my music finds a way<br /> to survive through the times and with the kinds today<br /> L.A., what a wild place to be<br /> styles by Ab, Mike Troy, and A.C.E.<br /> <br /> Chorus<br /> <br /> Mikah 9:<br /> Indeed, indeed, Haiku De Tat what we could do witcha'<br /> men at peace for y'all to call entities <br /> quicker on the draw the sickest thing that you ever saw<br /> so for all our trees grow and grows in my backyard<br /> remember me, sometimes I like to act hard<br /> that's just it, it's an act but don't confuse that<br /> if you choose to chit chat with a mack fully packed<br /> you're bruised, black, blue and blurple<br /> you'd never get a chance to bust back<br /> I don't have to be rappin' or dancin' in a circle<br /> to make the people react<br /> I could be enjoying the be-boying<br /> I'm already on the map and made my money living fat<br /> no need to profile and flash stacks<br /> I'm way past that<br /> Master Card and a little cash for snacks<br /> munchies, after partaking from breaking nugs<br /> down out of fat bud stash stacks<br /> ahh, I do my floor work on linoleum<br /> exploring the crevices of my woman's ass crack<br /> I rhymin' in the SF studio on Napoleon<br /> and I really love this jazz track<br /> I'm running game now I'mma win<br /> I'm on my last lap<br /> you want to dance with me?<br /> fast tap chance jacking for ASCAPs, checks, advance<br /> and that's wack, I mash back<br /> <br /> Chorus<br /> ---<br /> Lyrics powered by lyrics.tancode.com<br /> written by HAYES, EDWIN M.
