Testo Lullaby - Q
Testo della canzone Lullaby (Q), tratta dall'album Twilight
I'm going to lull them to sleep
I write on the paper, what I see is dark shit
Written infarction
Verbal darkness
Potential, spark it
My failure: applauded
I'm used to being hunted, they call me "shark bit"
More like shark week, they prey on the weak, supply scrutiny as opportunity sleeps
They all scary, not a sound, not a peep
Dial tone obsolete at the sound of the beep
Behind closed doors they talk that talk until they hear the lullaby, yeah right, boy silent night
Put up a fight before you join the crowd of motherfuckers who threaten me thinking that it's right
Behind on bills, no time for the thrills
I'd imagine you're also sympathetic to that plight
Future not bright, no blinding light
I'm going to lull them to sleep, so hear my lullaby
They say my pen was slick but it's never been sharper
Crisp like the fucking temp fade from a barber
Ships ain't the only thing sitting in the harbor
I harbor ill will for the poor excuse of a father
Don't call me a martyr
If you're not the fam, I swear I couldn't give less of a damn
If you knew who I am, you wouldn't offer a gram because drugs don't contribute to the pen in my hand
I saw my mom get beat so I beat on beats instead hustling with dice in the motherfucking street
I look at stormy waters, my pleasure to greet this outward manifestation of the pests that eat
Crush skeletons in my closet, mosh shit like mosh pits, undivided deposit
More like withdrawal
Detached and deterred
More a man of action, I'm a man of less words
Tip-toeing, I'm growing, through stacks of cash I'm blowing
Like a leapfrog screen, I'm education loading
Soothe my seizures with phenytoin
You're not even a rapper you're just a wannabe show in
I'm showing, an affinity to do this to infinity
Setup, metaphor, punchline, the holy trinity
Mention me
Bars too hard to stay locked in the jar of my mind, this pen would take me far
Behind closed doors they talk that talk until they hear the lullaby, yeah right, boy silent night
Put up a fight before you join the crowd of motherfuckers who threaten me thinking that it's right
Behind on bills, no time for the thrills I'd imagine you're also sympathetic to that plight
Future not bright, no blinding light
I'm going to lull them to sleep, so hear my lullaby
Play my music?
Y'all never choose it
I actually discuss more than a street shooting
I actually have talent unlike the one hit wonders who wonder if they'll be an absolute plunder
I'm under
Influence but not due to drugs, but due to ignorance that y'all sweep under the rug
Damn, shoulder shrug
Y'all got a poisonous touch
I'm going to lull them to sleep
Swear to god I'm done
I saw my mom get beat so I beat on beats instead hustling with dice in the motherfucking street
I look at stormy waters, my pleasure to greet this outward manifestation of the pests that eat
Crush skeletons in my closet, mosh shit like mosh pits, undivided deposit
More like withdrawal
Detached and deterred
More a man of action, I'm a man of less words
I'm going to lull them to sleep
