lyrics
verse 1:
I'm from that city of change
Where there's plenty to gain,
And people come from all around just to get in the game,
You can roll snake eyes, soon as they lift the plane like Sam Jackson, dodging all the venomous fangs,
To sip from this well,
But Tell me are we living in hell?
The way the cops be using hammers,
We resembling nails, they got tools of the trade but no rules of engagement, hope the father gave wings to those thrown from slave ships,
Hung from slip knots, I pray I do not slip,
Traitors outside, stab backs for stock tips, like a disc jock paid under the Technics, not to rock real hiphop on the hot list,
Hutu vs Tutsi
Shia vs Sunni,
But who sold them the AKs, the ARs, Uzis,
I shot the sheriff, and the deputy, I hold the key, call me Clef like a refugee,
The reason She quote what he wrote, is cuz he keeps it C-note
Style is well-groomed, but never did I elope,
That's why I'm unbridled,
Still got a honeymoon, but I never lay with witches that be jumping over brooms,
That's a lot of mask ...cara, I think that spells doom,
Already pulled your card, it said, get well soon,
I done had a checkered past so I'm making chess moves,
The artist formerly known as Dex and Txt too, respect due
Hook:
Ah, oh lawd,
They don't quite make em like this anymore,
1, 2, 3, to them fore-head when you see the walking dead at your door,
I know you wanna enter but I can let you in,
Odds slimmer than Barbie, some zombies are even kin,
We ain't talking bout toys, these boys became men,
Top of the 9th inning, the beginning of the end
2nd verse (blctxt contxt):
It's the top of the 9th, from the home of the Braves
Working Class Music and we ain't no slaves
Coming in from the cold and like the bush man say
Shining down on you hoes w/the light god gave
We lay real spiel, smoking Kill Bill in the 'Lac
I purpose slamming doors bumping Eddie Cole tracks
It's facts and science, nixxas know my alliance don't give a single solitary fuck about complying to a trend
Here's the beginning to your end: when we start the revolution all you bitches gon' squeal
Truest resolution cuz the picture painted trill
Shawty got a puddle in her nappy dugout so I slid
Right to home base, brew in my hand
Celebrating w/Yamin Semali my man
Fans rush from the stands cuz we hit a home run
East Point's greatest hit, Southside's favorite sun and I'm out nixxa
Hook
3rd verse:
No camouflage, Bodyguards or entourage, But if ever you want to trip I'll send you bon voyage,
I confess, I'm often choosing life or death, maybe one day I'll break this juju, and be psycho less,
Exorcise a demon when I be intoxicated, like P 90X, the crowd be doing plyometric reps,
Some niggas step and fetch, I be on run in shoot,
Like Stewart Avenue back when we used to practice hoops,
Make em jump around like pain in the house,
The way we put it down they wonder how we came from the south,
You know the stereotype of what my areas like,
But they should call us the pall bearers, how we carry it out and bury the mics,
Fuck nice, I'm very polite, like after you, how do you do, and have a goodnight,
I'm Andre Agassi, I'll show you what that canon be like,
Your life will flash before your eyes, like a camera light, aight
Hook (x2)

FRESH. These remixes feel like extra vacation hours I didn't know I had. Definitely ready to blast these at ignorant levels.

Goodness. Reasonable Doubt is one of my favorite albums of all time. This is (thankfully) not a remake. Skyzoo and Antman Wonder have skillfully taken the themes and sounds from the classic and reanimated them with a feel that equally throwback and modern. I listen to this when I want to focus. aplusashley
