arrested development - play with fire lyrics

i burn sage i burn bridges whatever it takes to get away from you dog + you a negative ni%ga
i figure i’d give you time to realize that’s the issue between us
it ain’t stature or status, class factors or baggage
it’s being a human being and i’m way past being savage
or being average, uh not me homie i’m care & i’m free
i’m rare and i’m a t
i scare when i re
up with a ruff rhyme for the whole industry
when i retire be desired as spiritual being
we’ve won two grammys
but when consciousness was k!lled we became raps orphan annie’s up on the bill
daddy warbuck’s gives us bucks to tear it up
and tear it up we do like staffers in watergate
shredding everything as a group
people talk soup
equal walk equal fruit
evil stalks truth
so i guess more or less it’s arrested development they stalking us dude
there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire you must get burned
there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire you must get burned
there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire you must get burned
there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire

uh cuz opinions are a dime a dozen
but truthful opinions can be the kind that bludgeon
my momma said stand in your truth so i ain’t budging
my daddy said never be poor + so i wasn’t
but i had a choice because he gave me one
an entrepreneurial father + gave hope to his son
a responsible mother gave me prototype and example
the drum that they marched to + i’m remixing it like a sample
i can be known to ramble but
my name is speech so is that really a gamble
i mean the whole scene got me needing a advil
i been adamant since the eve of hip hop in the big apple

there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire you must get burned
there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire you must get burned
there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire you must get burned
there is a lesson you must learn
play with fire
see i was resting at the park
minding my own
bizness
til my granny told me
go and get your microphone
listen
bring your bible going viral
on your iphone
wrap your head
on and on
call tyrone
whoa
too many clones
my own
need a
nina simone
no gmo’s
or emo
g’s in my home
it’s 3 to go
five months day 2
in a row
that’s 3 or 4
five, six seven or mo
mtv, yo
fab 5 freddy
the show
believe me yo
i got the ingredients
so
gimme the flo
it’s hot sauce
leave it alone
or let it simmer
i’m a sinner
at the lord’s dinner
so when i enter
make the lights dimmer
for all the white folks
and all of my n+ggas
kirk franklin
stomp in the yard
godz’illa
ask jah
i’m one of the last airbenders
i got a thirst, for tapping into the rhythm inside the earth
converse with the universe, find my purpose, and purge the worst
versions of myself, trying to reverse my curse
ain’t trying to be the emcee seeming more perverse per verse
but the surf is hard to ride sometimes
when poseidon rises the tide to pull you inside
and to survive, you gotta stand up or else you’ll drown
but the entire weight of the ocean is holding you down
and the life preserver thrown from the demon is tempting
but i turn to the pen instead, the writing is cleansing
with every sentence invented i sense my spirit is mending
a tendency to mentally bend time, my mind is extending the tracks
on my train of thought, i’m conducting myself
never static, pushing forward, i’ll be shoving myself
i don’t need no ones approval, i can govern myself
translation for the masses, i’ll be dubbing myself
