Brother Ali - Pay Them Back lyrics
Your rating:
Blood on beats Tears have been shed Lives have been lost Blood has been spilled Blood on beats Damn, look at em sittin there, cats missin their chance Pissin their pants for opportunities and disappear into a bar stool Pardon you for thinkin I forgot about The way that children act when the stars come out It would be too much like right for them to tune up their sight and then Pursue something tight within, the blue ugly life they're in Liked your grimace but I must admit it's been a while Since my outer adult disciplined your inner child I've taught you the limits now when I crack your slumber I expect you to say, "Thank you sir, can I have another?" Your chance to wonder is up holler enough talkin So they won't be caught off guard when I'm knockin the dust off em Plus tossin em in a moshpit, my village sacrifices virgin rappers Who don't do the Rites of Passage Curl em backwards till they faces touch they asses Mail em off to Paraguay and don't insure the package Burned your vermin asses, learned your nervous habits In turn my current status lefts serpents swervin backwards I rock parties where half the crowd is rappers And analyze my diction as if their opinion matters I splatter patterns of poetic eloquence Mutterin bone shudderin utterin sense, they fluter and twitch The ironic part of it is, I ain't tryin to scare these kids Just tryin to connect them to the heritage Beneath the outer layer the train is black You just don't disrespect the people that lay the tracks You love this human expression and they gave you that And so the least y'all can do is try and pay em back I said beneath the outer layer the train is black You just don't disrespect the people that lay the tracks You love this human expression and they gave you that And so the least y'all can do is try and pay em back You ain't the first, you will not be the last Contribute Do your shit, step the fuck off You're not half as important as you think you are Blood on beats Blood on beats
