Live Percenters - Science of the City Lyrics
Been outside in the war with the corner store FordNew courts and post upHustle dummy rock, the crumby blockIt's the people who want it more when they fiending for that good stuffWhat they got was some bread with the crust all roughWay that Michael Ray bag it sealed shutBut I bounce with you Bluetooth tucked away in my shoeAnd be back again tomorrow, that's the science of itThe vegetation, the poverty reached troubledThey had children, nobody's tried to raise themSo the route passed on when the street went onLooking for some crumbs to go and swipe upPetty crimes, forgetting dimes, always seem to be in some type of Ville situationBut when the guns go off, be it dubs or copsAnother one's gone, life wastedYes, yes, y'all, got a lot from my chestBless, bless y'all, I can feel the city breathingThe new moon roll hot in the corners of the metropolisShining like one on top of thisNobody's stopping this, too much velocity and mind power to be slaving by the hourRunning around the same dollar and it makes no senseHow many times you at this bar? How many drink you had at that bar?Seven days a week, 24 hours a day, 60 minutes in an hourWhat's the science, what's the mathMoses had a staff and he parted up the seasBut they got us outside selling chacha and Mickey DsIs this why fathers plant seeds? And mothers grow trees?My uncle tells me keep a couple decks under my sleeve'Cause if you don't, someone will and that you best believeScience of the city and the city can't sleepThe city can't eat, survival ain't cheap, city blocks are always steepAnd city lights don't help you see but knowledge reigns supreme, yoThe true philosophy, it ain't about a salary, it's all about realityOpen apple, end, that's a new dayCan't get the raise 'cause the flave' grade A to the graveThey slave to get paid, I shine like glow sticks at a raveWithout tossing cash this or that wayAnother café, they another raw, that made helps consciousnessBecause we whiling, becoming more hoarse, we only get strongerI fear my only courage, my hope, my hungerMy understanding the man when I lend a handWhen my fam and friends in jam, hammers jamming, Uncle Sam'ing themMegaphone rang and they planning the ram and glammingWe all know how that circumstance endsChange filters on like I'm Instagraming, sounds check, stage racks'Fore they bring the fans inScience of the city, y'allScience of the city, y'allThat's the science of the city, y'allScience of the city, y'allSee the signs, it's a pityScience of the city, y'allThat's the science of the city, y'allScience of the city, y'allSee the signs, it's a pityScience of the city, y'allThat's the science of the city, y'allScience of the city, y'allSee the signs, it's a pityScience of the city, y'allThat's the science of the city, y'allScience of the city, y'allSee the signs, it's a pityScience of the city, y'allThat's the science of the city, y'allScience of the city, y'allSee the signs, it's a pityScience of the city, y'all
