Abstract Mindstate
Downtown
[Chorus: The Marvelettes]
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
His boss and he's lost-lost-lost and-and-and-and
[Verse 1: Olskool Ice-Gre]
Everyday is the same routine
Check the closet for a white shirt
Match the tie, make sure the dress shoes clean
Watch the clock, y'all know what I mean
I see my mans aggravation setting in from his 9 to 5 thing
But he a college guy, [?] masters degree
Had to do it, he the first in his family
It's the pressure, it's hardening [?] train, [?] his brain
Each day the same old same
Set salary, my mans clocking 45K
But he'll be broke again in less than forty-five days
And it's a shame because he be working so hard
So many weekends and overtime, he gets home after dark
Ain't no time for a walk in the park
Or visit friends [?] sleep and do it all again
Dreams [?] run in the ground
And I ain't see him crack a smile
Since he been on that deal downtown, this is bad
[Chorus: The Marvelettes]
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
His boss and he's lost-lost-lost and-and-and-and
[Verse 2: E.P Da Hellcat]
Have you ever ever ever in your long [?] life
Met a three-legged n***a that'd be slinging the pipe
[?] nice convo [?] whip that he ride
But when he go downtown, he ain't making you ride
[?] sick but he's tired, [?] 101
Functions of [?] that we call the tongue
Had to make you "ah"
And multiples of twos and threes
[?] still could it in your knees
But please, do not tease
Talk about you gotta sneeze
'Cuz you got alergies
I ain't got no disease
But an itch that needs scratch
And a kitten that needs pettin'
And a project that needs backing
You're lackin' Vitamin P
You could put it in your mouth
You know I'm from the midwest
But you can go down south
You could go way down and get it dirty, dirty
You could get rough with the bed
But don't hurt me, hurt me
[Chorus: The Marvelettes]
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
His boss and he's lost-lost-lost and-and-and-and
[Verse 3: Consequence]
I can't change my philosophy
When it comes to n***as watching me
You always assume the worst to think a n***a gon' get to drop on me
[?] my crib, how I live and how I do my biz'
[?] my life for some bitch I never made my wife
They hunt me down, want me now 'cause I'm in too deep
Well if it's on, n***a jump, I won't lose no sleep
I'm in them streets with [?]
You gotta watch [?]
And them n***as that you let into your circle of trust
And if they don't, then they won't
You gotta take a step back when it's time to choose
So each morning I hit downtown at 7 a.m
With the sole purpose to call the world nothing but mayhem
Word, word, word, word
[Chorus: The Marvelettes]
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
Each morning my man goes downtown
His boss and he's lost-lost-lost and-and-and-and
[Outro: Consequence]
You know how we do man
Con', man, Abstract Mindstate
Chi-Town, N. Y
Can I get one?
No, n***a you can't get one
You bitch ass n***a
I'm goin' back to bed
