Testo Where You Gonna Run - Talib Kweli feat. Jean Grae
Testo della canzone Where You Gonna Run (Talib Kweli feat. Jean Grae), tratta dall'album Right About Now
It's back again for the first time
We gonna do this one a little different
Jean Grae
Tryin' to test the waters with this one
See how it goes
(Where you gonna run?)
Not far
(Where you gonna run?)
Where you gonna go?
Geez
Alright, underground climber
This is a new line-up
Niggas fight your way through
If you're not ready to lose
May I suggest that you let us the fuck through
Everybody clap your hands now
Tear the walls down
Dance like Rudy Huxtable scorin' a touchdown
You know, hands in the air
Knees in, knees out
Drop a little cymbal on 'em this time, no doubt
Let's go
Alright, ten years deep
And my tenure's still deep
My bad, I'm sorry
I don't like when phrases repeat
I meant that a decade's almost passed
Since Spaceballs was released
And I'm strugglin', still hustlin' to eat
I must be built with adamantium skin
While y'all motherfuckers wear your flesh thin
With your heart pokin' through on your arm, stupid
I drop more bombs than on Saddam's house, unarmed
My mouth's a weapon
I shout, an armed guard step in
Didn't mean to get loud
No disrespect
But you know the Jean's a threat to your checks
Niggas' hearts burnin'
No Prilosec to stop the attack
Your neck fat's gettin' hotter with every drop in the track
And now I finally got some haters? Good
Let it be known
I'll still be here after all this shit is done, said, and gone
Can't keep runnin' the same formula
I'm implorin' you to quit fuckin' the game up
Before it fucks all of ya up
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna hide?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Yeah, c'mon
Watch these niggas start to run soon as I hit the track
Walk in the sack, eyes low like Kriss the Cap
My flow get cats to throw they guns like Official Naz
I'm trash, leave niggas hard, quick fast like Tipton Nash
Diamond cut lyrics so sharp the spit split the glass
Your mouth writin' a check that your ass ain't quick to cash
Screamin' how you quick to shoot, don't even know the screenplay
Niggas rap in black and white
I rap in shades of Jean Grae
Sick of niggas lickin' boots, I pick and choose my battles
When I spit the truth it's hot, like the pride that move the cattle
Y'all don't really want no beef
That's too real, you on veal
You baby sheep hangin' in the air to tenderize the meat
Me? I don't like the taste, the shit's gamey
Like magazines tellin' lies to start wars like Dick Cheney
They suck, so they losin' they flavor like Now and Laters
When I bust, niggas run for the hills like al-Qaeda
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna hide?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
She lacks delivery
Really, nigga?
I pack rap symmetry and send it to your dorm
Why y'all iggin' me?
For sure, Jean is synonymous with chivalry
Open doors, but I step through first
Test the waters and I pee in 'em
Got no net worth?
But now everyone's a rapper
And everyone'll shoot you dead
Only lead I stay strapped with is a razor-sharp pencil
That's gripe it, it could stab you rapid
It's all ass-backwards
You're all mall performers, actors
What though? C'mon, let's race to where the cash is
Get mauled like Roy, you're an altar boy
I'll jet through you like a Jet Blue flight, I'm unemployed
You're still scared to touch me
I got a case of rap leprosy, face grew ugly
I'm chasin' all you club bunnies
Erase you, tackle you down
Take your money when your chest on the ground
I know it's foul, what you gonna do now?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna hide?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna run?
Where you gonna hide?
(I think it's time you gave it up)
I think it's time you gave it up
(Oh yeah)
