lyrics

A bunch of big trouble on the waterfront
nicer when I smoke a blunt
nicer when I drink some whisk
Name sounds like a terrorist
Wanna hear the cypher of the babies in their diapers
Wanna hear the cypher of the ancients acting righteous
Wanna hear the cypher of the guys that payed their dues
But when it comes to that whack shit
We ain't got time to lose
Amateur, amateur
never for the mortgage
keep the $80 bucks and give it to the band thats touring
as long as we can make the crowd shake and holler names.
sipping on my 5th big cup using my brain
entertain-

-the entertainers
the asshole thinks he's almost famous
in the cypher rapping shameless
breathe is haneous.
and who will save us
a long white beard or a goutee
band t-shirt or a long sleeve
unbuttoned to let the neck breathe
I see an easy target
sliced with a razor hidden in my sleeve
I pack more punch than your flows just when I sneeze
So dick please
Take your vacation, practice some patience and lay off
Bento and Salaam are the tops
were telling you to take the day off.
