A Tribe Called Quest
Kickin’ it
Check it
[Verse]
The Buddha master
The Mr. Whitiker, my eyes low
Flow sicker than a zombie hospital
Know I'm steady steezing 'cause I'm always chasing capital
I'm staying focused on the present, past, you can have her tho
Wait
I'm awful, horrid rapper, so back to basics
I'm honest, you in denial, it's time to face it
I'm feeling foolish, I should sue you for the time I just wasted
Jury full of enemies they copied and pasted
When they see the flames, they just run back to base and
Write up all my rhymes, now the tears contemplating
My body's all ice, there's only fire that I'm spitting
Now my lungs scorched, shit, I think I burned Satan
Ain't a born sinner, I'm never born but keep the sinner part
I'll hibernate another winter then the heat'll start
A street kid acting wild but know I got heart
Never hesitant, I mean it when it's time to play the part
Waiting for the sun to come down for my hunt
I'm the father of this game, my flow be kicking like a punt
And I call this X-games cause every single fella stunt
The burnt bars, the wordplay, the quickness, it's all-day
So I'm kicking with the peeps on the block, it's past dawn
Waitin for the night to come, then a ski mask I put on
Past 9 and I'm getting calls from the don
Ima have to change the story, I put too much in the song
So I stop the kicking doors
Now it's back to metaphors
Sailing, call me Popeye's cause the green just gimmie force
Breaking of the game until I'm fuckin' up her voice
I'm guessing now she turning silent so I'm filing for divorce
N***as thinking slower than a turtle but I'm master splinter, cell
Lost and forever stuck in 16 bars of hell
Day, I see the daylight things that only time can tell
I'm thinking bout the scheming, don't you dare to tattle tell
[Outro]
Stressing over me but I'm just relaxing
The 5'8 assassin
I just came into the cypher but nobody passing
