Truck North

Yeah

Through the sirens the lights is blindin'

Battlecry sound off warriors dyin'

Last call at the bar with the snakes and tyrants

Hands up That's a massacre the cops kept firin'

Run amok keep y'all eternally cryin'

And fed up

Place red stains on global giants

The brain of Orson Welles

Stuck in a masterpiece Citizen Kane's personal hell

It's dark and it's hot where them hustlers dwell

And the air bears a stench of a corpse's smell

Homie down on his luck one foot in a jail

And he down to his last with a quarter to sell

This right here world premiere of the last days

The final paragraphs to the book's last page

You can feel it comin' no runnin' away

Let's get free or let's get paid

Same s**t different day

The cornerstone to where I lay

Is shattered glass and crack bags where they play

And scattered a*s is passed in ridiculous ways

These cats chef like they Isaac Hayes

Parallel to the grave

Stuck in the game with no rules

And we're screaming for some water and some edible food

Man I'm right there rabbit ears nothin' to lose

This is what you ain't learnin' in school

I'm tryin' to tell ya it's hard

A loaf a bread milk and eggs stick of butter man

Somebody mother lies dead in the gutter

Sherrif down by them kids talkin' that gutter

Tell them kids Don't look under those covers man

Loaf a bread milk and eggs stick of butter man

Somebody mother lies dead in the gutter

Sherrif down by them kids talkin' that gutter

Tell them kids Don't look under those covers man

Black Thought

Check it out

A child is born his mother is gone

He in the middle of it literally tusslin' strong

For his life

The tide high in the eye of the storm

A mannish boy arrive and the riot is on

With no time to try to respond or prepare

'Times it's hard not becomin' a headline

Or prayin' in the night when it's bedtime

Or layin' ya head down

'Cause you already know what it is now

You know a lot of leaders ain't honest

And they can't keep a promise

And I hate to speak about it

But it's all freakanomics

Cramped and proud of it you amped and you rowdy

Treadin' water tryin' lift up your head without drownin'

This type of s**t can make ya heart stop poundin'

But you pushin' for the top too scared to stop

Now it get's deep bodies are floatin' around in the streets

Lotta people who won't even be around in a week

Man get the operation gone

What y'all waitin' on

We been patient y'all mu'f**kas takin' long

The television gettin' all the information wrong

Doin' how they do it gettin' they miseducation on

They already late

Somebody been was supposed to regulate

Instead of wait before they let the levee break

You try runnin from the truth but it's givin' chase

Got to ask myself yo

Is any n***a safe

A loaf a bread milk and eggs stick of butter man

Somebody mother lies dead in the gutter

Sherrif down by them kids talkin' that gutter

Tell them kids Don't look under those covers man

Loaf a bread milk and eggs stick of butter man

Somebody mother lies dead in the gutter

Sherrif down by them kids talkin' that gutter

Tell them kids Don't look under those covers man

A loaf a bread milk and eggs stick of butter man

Somebody mother lies dead in the gutter

Sherrif down by them kids talkin' that gutter

Tell them kids Don't look under those covers man
