1.
Innovation turns me on
Like no other sensation and
Assimilation puts you 'pon
A pedestal of education
I will listen to you all day long if you're gonna keep on comin' out with those funky ass mathematical equations
Pre.
Like Euler's Identity
It has a number that's imaginary
We could talk theory of probability
That you're gonna go home with me
Ch.
Shut up
Shut up and take my money
Shut up and take my money
Shut up and take my...
Shut up
2.
I could listen to you quote philosophy all night you be
Like a regular Nietzsche
Sitting in the back of the library
Reading homer's odyssey
That's why I think that you're the one for me
Pre2.
Like Lewis Carroll poetry
We make sense of jabberwocky
Mimsy in its flimsy misery
We could talk about the pre -
Vious pre chorus
Cause I want you to go home with me...
Chorus.
M8.
If you do it good
Then your product gonna move
Relativity is my groove
It only goes to prove that you're a transcendental number.
Chorus.
Shut up
Shut up and take my money
Shut up and take my money
Shut up and take my...
Shut up

The Shizz
01:09
|
|||
Got shot up in a comedown
Wasn't ready for the fight
A monumental jack
Is like a a rattlesnake bite
It's easier to suck out the poison
Than it is to turn off the light
This is the shizz...
Sedition in grime
But the pain isn't yours
It's mine all mine
This is the shizz
An ellipsis entwined
In parenthesis is all that your
Vacuous pen can find
Got hit up for a cigarette
I didn't see the fists a comin'
Raining down on my head
Intention was to get me runnin' but
It's easier to take the fall
Than it is to blow the mission
This is the shizz...
Sedition in grime
But the pain isn't yours
It's mine all mine
This is the shizz
An ellipsis entwined
In parenthesis is all that your
Vacuous pen can find

Listen To Me

1.
You listen to the liars on the radio
The politics the weather and
The other things they say to you.
And you
Listen to the doctors selling big pharma treats,
And you knock em back like a pre teen eating sweets.
You listen to the holy men who tell you
That salvation is just ninety nine dollars away,
The evangelical preacher and
The deeply flawed unethical priest
You listen to the strangers in the street
But you won't...
Ch.
Listen to me listen to me
You're not listening
Listen to me... right.
2.
You listen to the empty promises
The eloquence and the rhetoric
Emanating from a black lung orifice
And you
Listen to the hookers selling
All the happy endings
Even though there's other matters
You should be tending
You listen to the junkie who is foaming at the balls
When he should be passing sentence on the real criminals
You listen to my music for free
But you won't...
Ch.
Listen to me listen to me
You're not listening
Listen to me... right.

Black Tar Bling

1.
Low ride roll tide
Wearing a necklace of pearl like a new bride
Make the masses follow the leader
Like the piper pied
Every time I see you I die inside
Black tar bling
Bad mo' king
Shinin' like a debutante's engagement ring
2.
Photograph the bad side
Wearing your mugshot like
Trophy wives wear all the tears they cry
Shouting out the location of dealers like a tour guide
Now there's nowhere to hide, so
You need to zip it...
Black tar bling
Bad mo' king
Shinin' like a debutante's engagement ring
