Youlogy - Shabazz Palaces

Searching blind

Run behind

Out of time

Into fire

Caked up in fake love to get you high

This shit is gorgeous

It’s bitchin' with your fortunes

One hundred medallions in a scout scrimpin' fortress

Secret potions voted concealed emotions

Grim-tilted-bounce-killing shades for his orbit

In a haze

And is hoping that they watchin'

Before artists he’s droppin' to the fifth and bet he boppin'

A little boy coppin'

Let the top down

Aim straight

Climbing in the middle A-

Nother statistic for the…

Say Jack

Let me ask you a question

Do you want it?

Do you want it?

Do you want it?

Fast — Do you want it?

Like

Fast- do you want it?

Like

How fast — Do you want it?

How fast — Do you want it?

How fast — Do you want it?

How fast — Do you want it?

Damn nigga how fast do you want it?

The nights are getting stronger and the days are getting longer

The buildings getting bigger

Outside is getting smaller

The lies are getting truer and the truth is getting brighter

Things are looking blacker

But black is looking whiter

The price is getting higher and the buyers is the flyest

The stars are never brighter

The good up getting tired

Yesterday you threw it 'cus you gots to have the new shit

And money always fools ya.

So corny’s getting cooler

Nothing’s gonna stop it if it’s bound to turn a profit

For this amount I’ll do it

For this I let you watch it

But.

Right now

Let me make a toast with champagne to commemorate these years that thuggin'

went mainstream

Where stars rise and fall and organize regimes

And candidate themselves as some shiny card kings

Convince us that they fake we seen 'em for sneakers and rings

Tell us how they all down to killin' times is steam

Psht

To live they life off triple beams

And in the end never really was what they seemed

But take a clip of me and Alexander McQueen

Pose in front the Caddy painted candy money green

Where angels and devils in seven hundred dollar jeans

And all the eyes will sparkle with at-any-cost gleam

'Cus it’s mean

So mean

Kna' mean?

'Cus it’s mean

So mean

I know you know what I mean
