Testo Foul Play - The Coup
Testo della canzone Foul Play (The Coup), tratta dall'album Kill My Landlord
Brothers on the block making bankroll
The billion dollar dream is the dream of the cash flow
Little do they know that they're a little or a big ho
But they have a car that can side at the sideshow
I'm the type of brother that'll tell another "Hell no!"
To the seller strapped packing rocks in a hail ho
Whether you can slide you can glide on your cool ride
But you're gonna drown in the high tide of genocide
Brothers give me five but it's live jive
Can't understand that their hand's in a beehive
I'm a take a risk on the disc, take a big dive
Just to make it rhyme on time, I'll say overdrive
Missed 'em, I'm not with 'em but they're victims
Cause they're just a part, not a start of the system
No hocus pocus is the focus of the song
Hope that you can learn this and one day sing along
A clearly cut case co-opted by the Coup
An exposé of foul play against me and you
Sing it!
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
Explicit and implicit are the exploits
I'm speaking of society that's living off me
No drop ship coast to coast and into Detroit
Now I am a factor that they don't need
Cause labels are stable in this big world
Talking 'bout sex, you a boy or a girl?
Talking 'bout a con, you're the jerk or the jerker
Talking economics, you're the boss or the worker
Right about now I'm gonna change the flow
Going straight up like my new wave airflow
I say it and they play it, do you hear me though?
You're guessing there's a lesson but teach me, I wanna know
Conjunction junction, what's my function?
Connected with a genocidal pace of a race reduction
Funny there's no money for my people's production
The Coup is not through cause we got some gumption
A victim in a system about cold cash
If you don't make it then they treat you like trash
Dispose of you tonight if not in the morning
This is not a prophecy, this is just a warning
A clearly cut case co-opted by the Coup
An exposé of foul play against me and you
Sing it!
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
At times I find my mind can think fast
Like when a pig has a trigger saying "Nigga that's your ass!"
Thoughts of a slave master rise from the past
The past is the present cause I still feel the lash
It's against the law just to be black
Cause the warring jerks are just thugs on the attack
The street is not the source of course so just get back
Why try and lie? I doubt that it's about crack
Brothers on the block making bankroll
Maybe could the dream be the dream of an overthrow?
If so, no mo' we apply the big toe
In a shoe that's cramped so with a rubber sole
Slip and stuck slowly to the same game
Several hundred years have we been in a chain gang
Battered shackles only add thorn to a mind frame
Profane thoughts of pain slowly drive me insane
But then I started rapping for the Coup
A lot of rappers out there just looking for the payoff
Listen to the message that the Bootch brings you
The Coup is just a group to bring order out of chaos
People pick problems out and isolate
Misguiding many to think it's a mistake
Well I'm the Bootch and I'm here to set 'em straight
My information leads me to think it's foul play
A clearly cut case co-opted by the Coup
An exposé of foul play against me and you
Sing it!
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
