Mos Def - Close Edge Lyrics
[Mos Def]Pull up to ya spot on lowShine brighter than all o' them cats they got on glowLayin the cut like they not gon' knowCuz if I gotta make a move dawg they not gonna knowThis door marked private this is not fo' sho'It's Mos Def what you call real fo' sho'Is they what you call gangsta, hell noThey get a lil' pitch and go snitch to the po'They all talk fast and they all think slowI'm Mos Definite, not think soFlood ya city with the black ink flowAnd my crew ain't scared to let them things goSo, stop with the nonsense, like he consciousI'm just alright dawg, I'm doin' great dawgI don't play games so I don't playa hate y'allGet it straight or get the ***** up out my face dawgI'm like the second plane that made the tower's face offThat shit that let you know it's really not a game dawgYour grind and my grindin is same dawgI'm the catalogue, you the same songSo cool and ol' school like 84'The one ya lil mami windin' up her waist forThe name that real niggaz got they hands raised forMe and Mini got ya block yellow taped offDon't push me (get off)'Cuz I'm close - To the streets,to the beach, the *****es, the niggaz,the women, the children, the workers,the killers, the addicts, the dealersthe quiet, the livest, the realest- And that's closeDon't push me, cuz I'm closeTo the edge, back, middle, and frontStrong back shit liftin' it upFrom the big and the smallI'm like J. Brown +Gettin' Involved+But when I'm lettin' off around don't get in the crossHave ya preacher man speakin' low gettin' his crossTell 'em wild cowboy not to get off they horseBefore they find out the tailon is strictly enforcedIt's a real bad way to get ya name in the SourceTestin' the limits of a dangerous forceYa ended up dumb famous and goneYour people shoutin' out ya name in they songPourin' liquor on the day you was bornFind paint to put ya face on the wallC'mon fall back, there's no need for all thatIt's all good, we all here, goin' all out (all out)All day, listen when this song sayDon't push me 'cuz I'm close - To the streets,to the beach, the *****es, the niggaz,the women, the children, the workers,the killers, the addicts, the dealersthe quiet, the livest, the realest- And that's closeDon't push me, cuz I'm closeTo the edge, back, middle, and frontStrong back shit liftin' it upFrom the big and the smallI'm like J. Brown +Gettin' Involved+Now get yours[Hook]Boom diggy bang-di-bang-di, boom bang diggy [repeated 24x]
