lyrics
The corner store owner, your next door neighbour
Your best friend and partner before she went in labor,
Their newborn baby, two nurses in the waiting room
Patiently awaiting on a birth paper
God, Satan, your dog, the boss,
A turntablist who played the first song that you rapped on
Radio announcer, club bouncer,
Your coach in a timeout talking about all your fouls
The chess player who put you in checkmate
Over and over again until you got greater
The bread maker, the beggar, the dough taker
The dice shaker who divided all of your life flavour
The one who told you maybe, the one that never changes
Or the percent of the population you not relating
If i forget them then remind me later,
All I’m saying is somebody believe in you
You gonna make it
Somebody believes in you kid I’m sure of it
You got your head down low keep ignoring it
Formula for success, must not expect any of it
Just do your best, God Bless
& let bygones be bygones
Don’t be obsessed with always being the right one
Where does time come from? Why is the sky blue?
Why the water wet son? Ghostface questions
The 4th chamber is tough, can you harness your love
Enough to trust your friends when they coming up?
That’s belief and when someone did it for you
You better do it two times for them dude
Student of your breath, observe at every length
I’m not one to advise, we all rely on it
Try to mind your wit,
smart aleck’s don’t always get a grip on reality
Keep mashing.
On “Play This 2,” Pearl Gates & Syll channel the spirit of Mobb Deep, setting stark narratives to grim, dusty beats. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 29, 2020
