Testo Babylon - OutKast
Testo della canzone Babylon (OutKast), tratta dall'album ATLiens
I came into this world high as a bird
From second hand cocaine powder
I know it sounds absurd
I never tooted but it's in my veins
While the rest of the country bungies off bridges without no snap back
And bitches, they say they need that
To shake they fannies in the ass club
They go the other route
Turn each other out
Burn each other out
Where a bonified nigga like me
Can't even get no back rub these days
Ain't that bleak on they part
But let me hold it down
'Cause they shut you down
When you speak from your heart
Now that's hard
While we ranting and raving 'bout gats
Nigga, they made them gats
They got some shit that'll blow out our backs
From where they stay at
Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun
Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone
So I'm hoping (hoping), wishin' (wishing), praying
To keep my faith in you (keep my faith in you), in you
(Yo, yo, yo)
I'm fascinated by the way your nipples peak at me through your blouse
Freaky me, freaky you
Can't help but be aroused
'Scuse me Lord less for thinking
But that's the way we was brought up
Sneakin' to watch playboy at night
We all must be caught up in worldly ways
Chemistry between boys and girls
Is a lot like when we went to the woods
And laid with the squirrels
Durin' P.E., we'd be
Exploring each others privates
Hunchin' with all our clothes on
Until we felt excited then
Oh now it's on from here on out
Put your hands in the atmosphere
If you know what I'm talkin' about
Now if two hearts done walk on out
And I see you on the next song
They call it horny
Because it's devilish
Now see we dead wrong (ooh)
Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun (oh)
Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone
So I'm hopin', wishing, praying (praying)
To keep my faith in you (to keep my faith in you), in you (oh)
People don't know the stress I'm dealing with day to day (day)
Speakin' about the feelings I'm possessing for Renee
Moping around and wondering where she stay
Saw her last that she lay
Give it another day I say
But the Lord he taketh away
Now give it back Lord
'Cause that's like backboards without the rims
Me and my auntie was tight like southwest
Before the pinks moved in
Like the niggas that owned the liquor stores
Crack cocaine, pimps and whores
Living up on this earth
Before a nigga like daddy was born
But they making a scene
That my music and crime are team
But I'm speaking the truth not dreams (dreams)
So what in the fuck they mean
My lyrics ain't clean
Ooh (yeah), I fear the battle's just begun (just begun)
Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone (so I keep)
So I'm hopig, (and) wishing, (and) praying (praying)
To keep my faith in you (my faith in you), in you
Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun (just begun)
Ooh (oh woah), though we're here
Someday we will be gone (oh yeah, woo-hoo)
So I'm hoping, wishing, praying
To keep my faith in you (my faith in you), in you (ooh)
Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun
Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone (I keep hoping)
So I'm hoping, (wishing), wishing, praying
To keep my faith in you
My faith in you
My faith in you
My faith in you
(Keep my faith) my faith in you
My faith in you
My faith in you
My faith
