[producer(s): radius (aka radius etc)]
[hook 2: thaione davis]
[verse 1: iomos marad]
there’s
a lot of n-ggas rhyming just rhyming for recognition, but
i’m speaking as a leader and seeking better positions
higher over the lower, add the weight on my shoulders
survival is a art, got me thinking like a soldier
shaking off the aftermath of white power
while thoughts of my people still trapped in public housing
[?] ain’t no different than soweto
gentrify the mind, then liquidate the ghetto
the feel in chicago ain’t the same no mo’
heard “change gon’ come,” but it all come slow
violence in my city got us looking like rwanda
more like a tootsie out here and you’re a goner
[verse 2: rashid hadee]
draped in these flows, i stay on my toes
been out on my own since fifteen years old
(fifteen years old) god bless the zone
taking control, you know i got soul
also rocking with the band’s piece
feeling hungry like i’ve been fasting for ten weeks
it’s survival and working to make the ends meet
got to keep the world turning and moving to the beat
never missing the pocket, the stubble feel exotic
your honor, i got it. i’m guilty—now put the gavel on it
spontaneous laser from my cranium
ladies -rg-sm, the tongue is t-tanium
a true chicagoan that used to watch awakening
we play to win, made it to the attic from the bas-m-nt, and
[hook 1: rashid hadee and iomos marad]
[rashid hadee]
my god, we got to go hard
with cause from the stars, just doing my job
[iomos marad]
ay
my god, we got to go hard
with cause from the stars, just doing my job
[rashid hadee and iomos marad]
my god, we got to go hard
with cause from the stars, just doing my job
[hook 2: thaione davis]
hahaha. they got
the shakes—that’s because of that drum track. ain’t nothing but
the b-ss and the breaks of that drum track. there’s nothing out
of place when you off on that drum track, so go and gather
‘round—what you got for that drum track? (they got)
(the shakes—that’s because of that drum track)
[verse 3: rashid hadee and iomos marad]
[rashid hadee]
the yearning be the realest that you ever seen (you know)
the addiction is potent as methamphetamines (fo’ sho’)
mega lean on a track, letting the blessing breathe
rhyming is my specialty. i ventilate the stress in me
[iomos marad]
yeah, yeah, i’m not
an african-american brother. i’m stolen property
a high commodity in this labor-forced economy
breaking my back just to get a little money with a
false security of american diplomacy
[rashid hadee]
uh
hadiesel. peace to my people
flow is viceregal, gift of kris kringle
going so deebo, should be illegal
my love emit light on shadow of evil
[iomos marad]
yeah, yo this is
not chiraq. this is “go ill”
when city politicians get paid when blood’s spilled
mothers sell their own arms just to get a mill’
a n-gga switched the drills just to get a record deal
they ain’t making hits. they just do hits
sell rocks and blows, and let the four blow
ain’t no talking sense to ‘em—hearts are cold
just a day in the life of shorties up in the geaux
[hook 2: thaione davis]
they got
the shakes—that’s because of the drum track. nothing but
the b-ss and the breaks of the drum track. there’s nothing out

(the shakes—that’s because of the drum track)
