ROSEBUD
..
Secret handshakes, shaken keys
Bleed blood blue all dreams golden by the teeth for the teat..
Souls sold on the block
In the radio station talking..
Warning SHOTS
"every time you on those streets..
it fades like chalk and bubbles pop real soft as it drifts off
Names named if they even cross the road - snow blown
with coke on the nose - soaked shown
people in the suburbs like broke ass hoes round xmas time
to the catholic virgins behind glass while they stay during fresh desk mind ---
expansion shine like goose down, expanding from reading and writing, remembering everything
through hotel to prison the best girls and boys to sleep next to
a little christian born atheist glue sniffer school skipper like im waiting for those superman to say "i do"
i keep flying straight what could bend my neck from my chosen art
hip hop pure as belief
my single moves over the net, but the album by face to face
i hit world wide and become a new york legend in a minute off my dead fathers watch saving gace..
amen
....
As day drifts in and out, i got the world i built
it is what you make it, the la cats told me on the way to my field
but now the name in the air and they def after the fans
with death threats and round ups like virus spam pop ups peeps banned
neighbour wise when we was cool
im gonna have to come up out the piss pool
flash the monopoly money and start clippen niggers for their fools gold
i go from gangster art to ganster in the blink of an eye
...
but i keep the people that built my castle alive
knowing though im living day by day any moment i could be killed
but the villiage that built the hip hop star sleep at night still..
--
is it a pillow over the face
a bullet to the head
od on the toilet
an arrest in the streets
all i know i lived for me, and people found their way to the sheets..
