Lyrics:
bombs from the palms, love is so strong
Can't be stopped too long
For the night it will come
Shaped in the form of Mars that stone afar Ghetto cool
that it'd
Be a friendly gesture for us to take the garbage down to the city dump
So we took the half-a-ton of garbage, put it in the back of a red
come though
Post 9/11, post COVID, post traumatic
The innermost is trying get by like those in traffic
The human condition, reevaluating the weight
of danger even
Though we live in a world infinitely safer
And more predictable than
Anything our ancestors knew with their help
Our anxieties have only
That's my town
Living in the fast lane
Can't slow down
Come and visit Motown
City of the blues
Feel like Berry Gordy when I step inside this booth
I need
plain
Old black extensions
Just a T-shirt about carbon
"I always thought that by the time
I put out a third album, i would want
To come back to natural
out of town tonight
You've been stripin' in Portland from the day you turned sixteen
You got one thing to sell, benzodiazepine
Ten years ago I
a shark in the sea
A wee bit shy, but I comply by me
And I'm a mean mother fucker when I have to be
Got young g's with sleeves and thieves on hold
Frozen medallions, they come from Mesopotamia
The Sheikhs carry me in the
Streets out in Arabia
Tuna fish cans of black hash
Open caskets filled with
diamonds in the light
And we're standing side by side
As your shadow crosses mine
What it takes to come alive
It's the way I'm feeling I just can't
Scottie when he played wit' Jordan?
Or a star on a trek
In my Maserati on my way to Portland?
If I had a 2nd chance at life
Would I do wrong or would I do
this prejudice has got to go
Life is moving fast it need to slow down
Come and see me when I am in yo town
Practice what we preach before it go down
Tolerated by some like some monster
But they all come back for advice like a doctor
So here’s a story yeah it goes something like this
Now that things are
want to tell you a story about the last time I was in Portland.
The night before we played at the Long Goodbye.
I was walking on the street about
(COME ON!)
2 LIVE IS HERE, COME ON! (HEYYYYY!)
EVERYBODY! (COME ON, COME ON!)
JUST GET ON DOWN! (JUST GET ON DOWN!)
LET'S GO! LET'S GO! (OW! OW!)
to a close
The world's sorrow in my mind was gross
Black and blue lives matter when they shot, doh
And y'all remember when I mentioned this in 'That Hype,
Meet me in Chicago, down by the water line
Step across the gull coast, to my heart into your wine
Maybe Cincinnatti, with the trip in the morning
the experience of the (unintelligible) behind me, I said to Steve, "well look here, why don't I
come back with you?" I mean, I like a couple of weeks in Jersey.
So
amazing
I amaze myself so appalled
Don’t need yo applause
Stands up react and get clap up
To close you need to back up
In a gang full of niggas that don’t
the gut, in the soul
To fulfill the role
You were placed on Earth to do
No matter if you're broke or well-to-do, do you
I fall down and get right back up,
I see shadows from the corner of my eye
They remind me time is slowly passing by
She says " baby, you should come back to bed."
I laid down, but
If you live by the gun, die by the gun, yeah (yeah)
If you live by the gun, die by the gun, yeah (Bugzy Malone)
If you live by the gun, die by
get back up
Knocked down on the ground
But I come back up
Don't come round, if you don't like how I live life
Don't talk down, if you don't think that
the night has gone by (by)
But still I find the time to put that bump off in your eye
Total chaos, for these playas, thought we was absent
We takin'
