Pete Rock
Tell It Straight (Pete Rock Remix)
[Verse 1: Carter]
Yeah
New York City skylines, rooftop high guys
Every time I step up on these asphalt blocks
I feel like I can see right
Even though I'm out of money
Debit's running low as the dirty South
I'm back into action puffing blunts
Just light 'em up, pack a rim, matches
Pics of the show ???
(That shit looks crisp)
I'm fascinated by the dream, it's got me thinking
Skinny dipping with bitches, they getting naked
Sinful take this
(Definitely will)
Opportunity to get to new levels
Live on my toes, never settle
Life's a high speed chase
Can't let up on the pedal
[Hook: Dave]
On my own two feet, the promises I keep
Stay put to my belief
We on the rise, recognize
I'mma tell it straight
We got more love than pain
I'm not gonna break or flake
It's just the finer things we want
[Verse 2: Guy Harrison]
The street light tell me that it's safe to cross
In need of some fresh air, can't escape the exhaust
Lost in the Big Apple like James and The Giant Peach
The rumble under my feet gets me where I need to be
Placebo affecting the streets, might have to grab the pea coat
For lower degrees that we increase on you
Whipping round the buildings like a cab driver
Four in the morning, I'm faded, lights are a tad brighter
Doing fine, got some air in my lungs
Blood in my veins, a pair of some dunks
Some punks swept to the side, like kids with their veggies
No mids only headies, we been more than ready to conquer
Concerts feeding the fan base, finna have some chicks
In the kitchen flipping some pancakes
Ah, the necessity in my life is a melody
I'm suited for supremacy, get it right
[Hook: Dave]
On my own two feet, the promises I keep
Stay put to my belief
We on the rise, recognize
I'mma tell it straight
We got more love than pain
I'm not gonna break or flake
It's just the finer things we want
