versatyl & pilgrim - smart is the new gangsta lyrics

[intro]

[verse 1]
i step into the place with a b-boy lean
fresh, clean and dressed to k!ll
i lean against the wall and survey the scene
music’s on, i twist the green
i see little shorty dressed in pink
she’s talking to this dude, who sips his drink
they chat for a bit, and then begin
to step to the beat and move their feet
now in comes chris, he’s looking real mean
he’s armed to the t–th, he’s needing beef
he sees little shorty and lady pink
thinks to himself, it’s easy meat
so he stands by me, sniffing in
ready to move on the little kid
i’ve seen this before, this very scene
it happened last week, to bidder chris, i say

[hook]
smart, smart, smart is the new gangsta, i tell ’em
smart, smart, smart is the new gangsta, i say
smart, smart, smart is the new gangsta, i tell ’em
smart, smart, smart is the new gangsta

[verse 2]
he looks at me with an evil grin
he shakes his head and says to me
“you don’t know me, i need this green
i need to pay bills to feed the kids”
i said i do know you cause i ain’t no fool
i know how it ends, it’s not so well
you see back in the days the thug was in
but now things changed, the smarts are in
see brothers stepped up and got education
divine inspiration, switched direction
it doesn’t pay now the incarceration
times have changed it’s a new millennium
you need to think smart to get the solution
use your brain, hate’s just an illusion
i know crime pays when you escape detection
but sooner or later, you’ll pay it’s nature cause

[hook]

[verse 3]
god bless the mic, god bless the mic
i spit real flows all the rest can bite
see just the other day, around the way
i was chilling with my mans when i heard him say
“if you don’t stand for truth then you’ll fall for lies
if your heart’s not in it, then why disguise”
i thought for a minute, and then i said
your words make sense it ain’t hard to tell
and if you look around then you’re bound to see
that sometimes life can be hard to live
it’s the reason peeps do all sort of things
it’s good versus evil but we’re sure to win
so we all get down when the record spins
we dance through life cause we have a dream
so shorty, shorty listen to me
this advice i give can save your life, it’s

[hook]
