inspectah kp - america's best (interlude) lyrics

[verse 1]
another stack of papers on his desk
good morning from a lucid dream, and his team
is out of rest, a mother’s tackin’ capers on his breast
should warn him that he’s usin’ beams
stackin papers, abusin’ favors and cruisin’ fiends
it’s 4 in the morning and he’s pouring another liquor
fighting, affording a new ford for his daughter
who just turned seventeen # four doors and the right cause
4#os can k!ll dreams
in a heartbeat, for a lifetime, hear the phone beep
pick it up, put it down like some white wine
now he’s tipsy, look around for the right time
dime for a dozen rhymes, lines for his twin cousin
grind for the fruit of his vine, and for his pride
if i inquired why he wasn’t cryin’ he’d be lyin’
if he said because he’s happy, and as far as the rest?
a dime for a dozen, that’s america’s best

[phone rings, answering machine beeps]

[verse 2]
recognize that we don’t care that much
where you’re going, what your name is, can you spare a few bucks?
if you’re happy, if you’re trapping ’cause you’re down on your luck
if you’re dapper, if you’re nappy, if you drive a truck
we just want your allegiance, your unwavering credence
let me remind you that you need us, and you’re not the hand that feeds us
so before you try and bleed us, understand what you have to lose:
land and food, prestigious public position
your leases, mother’s due pension
your reaches, johnny’s tuition
your freedom, honor’s fruition
your beaches, modern ambitions
we’re leeches, you know we carry the cure
to ostracism, and we keep the system very secure
so stick with us and we’ll be doing our best to make sure
that over years your quest for success remains pure
just keep your head low! we know you’ll pass the test
after all, you’re america’s best
