nejma nefertiti & double a.b. - rats lyrics
[double a.b. verse 1]
they say that rats always leave a sinking ship, and that just shows that they’re some clever little things who be thinking quick
who know what to do when it’s swim or sink, you count them for dead until them little heads pop up on your riverbank
throw everything at them but the kitchen sink
glue traps under the kitchen sink they miss it but don’t miss a thing
the f+ck did you think? they survivors
it shouldn’t be surprising they thrive in an urban environment
the bile in the belly of our vile society
thriving off the waist that we toss asidе silently
and sometimes violеntly
when resources are thin they’ll go to war with another rat colony
just to provide the need of food in their belly
so how different are they from humans really?
it’s too scary thinking about how they carried the plague
but they made it up in various ways
experiments in a cage that probably saved more people from diseases
than all these other creatures combined just through research
hopping down feet first to the subway tracks
ain’t no love for snitches
but you gotta love these rats
[nejma nefertiti verse 2]
from the rotten apple city of rodents poets hustlers if you can make it here through all the hideous moments grit & dopeness
i pity opponents when a long tail appears on the street it’s the sh+ttiest omen
n0body likes a big mouth loose lipped showman
the kind that be like oh well when in rome do like the romans
explosions couldn’t take the rat race outta motion
it was spoken that there were five animals that when approaching
you should take their life the great books said go in
knowing that they harmful one for every human chosen
the motive to be top of the food chain but we don’t notice that there’s other beings out
there that could see us less than hopeless
maybe we’re the rats to them and we’re the focus
embarrassing ourselves thinking we are ferocious
when any minute they could expose us the diagnosis
narcissism at it’s finest and it’s the grossest
[napoleon da legend verse 3]
they throwing out ricos like labels giving drill rappers deals
from studio rats to courthouses these rappers really squeal
matter a fact 69 was a rat tip of the iceberg
code switching from blood now he using some nice words
rats are smart and rap is a tactical art
many a use you just for clout that’s the practical part
are we just bunch of lab rats they testing chemicals on
last night i dreamt of lucifer rocking a medical garm
rats do be surviving, make the most of their cards
they want the rodents gone, like the ghost of saddam
still we cooking, like that rat in the disney animation
lurking searching for goods like down in indiana’s bas+m+nt
top of the food chain with rats as the apex
played it safe with her dna trapped in the latex
we used to trade text screenshot it now she ratted
so erratic rats reproduce fast, it’s a habit
