Pro Era - Butterflies Lyrics
[Verse 1: Dirty Sanchez]The sky ain't the same no moreClouds are identical, the poison chemical trailsKeep your eyes openKids, eat your vegetablesSchool, I never had principlesBought a rap blown like 5-0'sIn front of pigs stopped they said IHot headed, ain't the mind, but it's popNot up to par, no cigar, mad papers andJah, jah bless though, I'm not aloneTappin our phones so they know where the best goYou in the presence of stars, now Little DipperHaters and haters, I love you lil' niggasHave Rocka snuffin' your jawCallin' Rokamouth, Dirty ragamuffin out, for nothing I be rockin' outNegative energy, either brothers or enemiesMy cargo far your cargo, short lack longevityI, treat [?] like a letter, I just let her goSincerely, me before I blowIt's Dirty[Verse 2: Rokamouth]So I try to survive without moneyBut I'm making my musicAnd you know the game is funnyEntertain and abuse itStupid rich while I'm hungry, and I study this ugly point of viewLike making a crowd move just for honeysI got G's overdue, that's cheese that's expiredIf I'm tired, I'm a loseRappers gettin' [?]You never hiredWhat to do, never gonna retireWe still minors to the newsOnly 20 years old, got full control of you foolsAhead of you tooFast maneuvers like computers peep the way that I moveSample huntin' in the dungeon on a ride to the moonKeep them waitin' for a tune, I don't know why I doI'm a starve in this youthGuess it's just what we chooseI'm just waiting for a plateI escape, got me takin offJust trying to find my faithAs I'm rated off these blogs, is he even, is he odd, not the meaning of my songsI'm asking why involved, if you ain't gon' help the causeI'm speaking life in awe, while I'mma have to cut you offIf you ain't't gon be thinking small, you gon' stack no bills at allSo 4-7, let us ballI'mma use my heart, and hold my [?]Make a call, and get a ballOne man bank for sureOnce I get my dough, I'll buy a rose gold ropeAnd hope I don't get gotOn this one way plotI came a long wayComin' off from my blockAnd I make sure I won't stop as I chew right through your spotWon't have enough 'til we all on topBetter make room, or you gon' get knockedAnd no deals say the [?] never ever gets dropped[Bridge: T'Nah Apex & CJ Fly x4]Ever gets dropped, no one ever, ever gets droppedI don't think we know it yet, I don't think we know it yetWe got it all on the line, life's a gambleA handful of dice and we chose to bet[Verse 3: CJ Fly]Ya'll know we 'bout our business cuz we got us some staffShow 'em what the business cause they gotta be trashWhen I got that New Jersey, thought I'd stay right on trackTry to use my train of thought to determine my pathWhen I drop, it's gonna be like we playin' jacksSteppin' out the box and no one can tell me jackAnd that's just a factSending a message but no this ain't a faxThe future that I manifested, know it is in effectGotta disinfectI'm spitting like mucous in my vestThat's something I should get off my chestAnd I'm when I'm in L-A-XThe things I'm getting done, that they lessDon't hear the [?], still I get on the listShoot for the stars from sky like I had subs on the jetWas never in the same class so let's change the subjectWe the only substance that was making some senseHad to leave but realize that you was right where you left[Verse 4: Dessy Hinds]Knock, knocking, Mr. Bill CollectorStill don't respect ya cause my skill offends yaThey pour a nigga syrup thinking that he might surrenderThink that they [?] this life [?]Until we blew our brains out and [?] just got to [?] usFees never get us feed and please never get the
