haiku - skylines lyrics
intro (haiku)
yo. there’s a lot of place i like to call “home away from home”. minneapolis. chicago. it’s a long drive, but you know you’re close when you start to see the skyline
chorus (c-ssandra llea)
all my life i’ve been known to keep moving like rolling stones
but no matter how far i roam, there’s just no place like home
i keep my eyes on the horizon. i’ve arrived in the city
buildings rising up like t-tans. i’ve arrived in the city
haiku
(yea) now from the time that i record til i’m smiling with awards
i’m reminded where it started, writing rhymes while i was bored
how i grinded from the floor, to headlining to perform
finally driving on them tours, signing vinyls in the stores
climbing higher towards making hip hop sensation my occupation
and being a household name in the general population
the road to riches is viscous it takes a lot of patience
for dealing with complications often with no compensation
the painstaking process, lacing up tracks in my patna’s bas-m-nt
the constant pacing and contemplating how to conquer stations
the most rewarding part is traveling all across the nation
and seeing the skylines complimented by constellations
each destination is motivation for me to write these epic poems
every stepping stone is a treasure trove
there’s no better feeling than that final stretch of road
where i’m headed, no one ever knows, feels like i’m never home
[repeat chorus]

(yeah) i’m on a track with haiku
but i need more than seventeen syllables and three lines to rhyme through
i’m from around the way of 10,000 lakes
represent mn even when i’m out o’ state
in a city that’s synonymous with indie rap
so i’m carrying the flag and just want to give it back
legends put us in the map. now i want the whole globe
they gave us atmosphere. i’m shooting through the ozone
aiming for the stars, to another nebula
i’m trying to be a god, even though i’m secular
and the reflection of the lights are in my retinas
dreams of marquees, my name in the center of
but no, i’m not scratching this logo off your eight gig ipod
i’ll never leave you mini apple-less
winning where i’m living. never catch these l’s
one love, from the tc to stl. come on
[repeat chorus]

chicago, illinois. living on top, i k!ll the noise
of ignorant sn0bs who live in a box and want to just stop and k!ll our voice
the politicians are hot. they’re acquitting the cops, and you’re docile, feeling coy
but i ain’t submitting. i’m walking the distance. i’m rocking with god to fill the void
the city has allowed me to be living on the bounty
from the music and removing any ignorance around me
feeling lifted and so gifted, ain’t no ignorance i’m shouting
the glory up to god, and my adrenaline is pounding
chicago has given me nourishment. bravado, i’m getting encouragement
i’m not going to limit this. i won’t be hitting this pothole. i’ll miss it and curve it
any person getting in the way of earning fetty. herbs-a-plenty, and i’m getting (?)
‘cause with the words i burn and murder many, and yes i get it in like curry (?)
(?) john hanc-ck. you will obey us when i rhyme that hot
american and great, i had to share and innovate, because i’m married to the game i had to tie that knot
i’ll say it ‘til the whole f***ing world hear me
i can make it in this game if cubs can win the world series
[repeat chorus]
