Straight From The Vil - Slum Village, Focus..., T3

Straight from the vil

The joke’s on you

Drop up the armies and school

This is more chronic than the garden movers

I gotta take you off here

React quick

It’s the world that I live in

Straight from the vil

The joke’s on you

Drop up the armies and school

These equal streets will meet you halfway

This when they get to all your beans in the interblock so going in don’t look

cute

(Verse)

I was raised in the slumber, now wonder

I crawl from the under, and still hit 3 light numbers

Roll me the 6 back like I did daily plunges

2 sides getting defeat but never held punches

Boxed in, not him

I defend like shaolin, my style is drunk and crowds and functions

I perform, some get drawn, it’s calligraphy

Bronze, they respond to its chemistry

Evil rap trilogy

I hold my city up, my whole back killing me

3 1 3, I emerge

Skyline great, no birds

Who am I?

the best of the worst

The last of the cursed, the past of the church

I am everything that’s conversed into verse

Ages, I gotta make this work

Patience ain’t here, get this work

Basic

(Hook)

Straight from the vil

The joke’s on you

Drop up the armies and school

This is more chronic than the garden movers

I gotta take you off here

React quick

It’s the world that I live in

Straight from the vil

The joke’s on you

Drop up the armies and school

These equal streets will meet you halfway

… you know why?

Who turned that?

(Verse)

Uh, the story started once upon a time

And my father’s stories started with a corny line

Same pain as is the classics or the agents

The very same drama that gets acted out on stages

The same kind of scribble getting drafted on these pages

That mean 2 packs, a quarter pound of crazy but courageous

Masterful words of art, thought up and created

And I ain’t paying anyone to play it

And since I’m rather going 50 savages with accolades

Praises like they actually care more about the substance than the wages

See the difference is I care about consumers ‘cause they listenin

It’s almost like I know em all by faces

My mama told me stupid is contagious

So I’m runnin far as gun, far away from all these majors

Plus I carry far from mine and check my age kids

I’m a student of all music not microwave hits

I learned from legends how to do it so it’s ageless

Timeless, didn’t wanna be famous

I’m just blessed I had a chance to meet my favorite artist

Played this game well, trained with the smartest

Rain, snow, sleep heel august to august

Sun up to sun up, my work ethic flawless

Kids had to eat well, daddy ain’t a dead beat

Didn’t want them thinking baloney’s the only red meat

So deep heap well

I ain’t a snake, higher low key

When I’m in my home I can sleep well

This is do or die, first week sales

And in the midst of this mess I won’t bring veil

Power of the air, practiced do re mi scales

Looking for retails in countries where they eat snails

(Outro)

Yea it started once upon a time

I guess it is my fault it started with a corny line
