Blu - Stress Off The Chest lyrics
Your rating:
I'm from a city where pollution is ruining minds More than lungs I'm from the source of Los Angeles Times Rhyme slums spit ghettoes and barrels and kettle minds Whistle riddles of hitting switches Singing carols of crimes Shine dimming, spine's itching to snap from backs Parallels are being broke trying to fit into gaps Of infinite traps, the projects invented for Blacks To have problems I'm giving it back cause that's nonsense Com sense and black I've been calm since Mom spit wisdom of the system I was brought into Walking through the walls made to hold me Homie papa once told me he was part of this group they called Piru's Niggas get bright over chips, they grip riffles as means for survival And he was once my idol, so how the fuck I think I'm raised to think My mind's too deep, a visionary never raised to blink Cleanse my soul brush my teeth Spit in faces fuck a sink, repent before I sleep Cheat religion, a nigga finna piss on each amendment Wipe my ass with the Constitution Constipated feelings trying to shit it out And get it out of my system A frustrated nigga pissed, cause they tricked me They fed me bull instead of full course real when I was empty They made me believe the world's against me They told me they was friends of me Closed my eyes and pre described my enemies Without no one even offending me But eventually I learned though I opened up a journal and I found eternal me Drowned under a seashore of unsure facts So fuck that we got beef Not only did you mix up my picture of life But you twisted my sight You had me writing shit and spitting it tight, to my people Sold it to the labels and they sold it to my peoples More lies to believe in, on sale for the Christmas season 12/25 gift wrapped and more deceiving, it's deep isn't it? And if you with me than you feeling this Mind rattled rhymes off without a sense of time caught in between a thought And a heartbeat, niggas think as far as they arms reach Or as far as they eyes see, but fuck that I think way out as I mind reach And ya'll way behind me So next Halloween, be a condiment and try to catch up (ketchup) You can find me cloud 9 in with my head up Designing ways to eff up the world A vindictive little fuck but disguised as a pearl so girls like him Still writing, I bust raps that impregnate thoughts That can give the world light in the dark A verbal Viking still riding the ark With a nine millimeter shooting seeds of light right at your heart I got a grip with a grip of bullets and if I pull it it'll blast comments And comments with conscious thoughts coming out of it So don't test him, you might be smarter I doubt it cause my mind's darker Write in permanent black marker over asphalt Walk like my dad walked, talk like my mama but I think like my grandfather Ain't no prescriptions needed for me I'm a man doctor I can stand lots of shit, don't try to talk me out of it Grinding like an occupant Lost as a prophet is, waiting for apocalypse Chopping it with college kids, a school dropout with a scholarship To teach niggas how to spit And it's a mess that just started nigga.
