STAR87 Lyrics

[00:00.00]Jumped over the, what is it? The r-something?
[00:02.45](Conductor)
[00:02.99]Ran away with the spoon
[00:05.93]Um, and then the (Conductor) cow jumped over the moon
[00:10.96]Hey man, these days, I believe it
[00:13.87](Answer the goddamn phone)

[00:15.83]Dumb luck if they ask me how
[00:17.49]But um, go ahead and cash me out
[00:19.75]You already know I need mine now
[00:22.10]When my father came home, they slaughtered a cow
[00:24.36]I come home, the house fallin' down
[00:26.92]Everything boarded up in town
[00:28.42]Everyone live in South Africa now
[00:30.46]Talkin' 'bout, "It's hard all around"
[00:32.34]Why when it's my turn to eat, it's always ashes in my mouth?
[00:35.84]Grown men excited to be in the streets, negros is clowns
[00:38.00]Or maybe it really is hard all around
[00:41.94]Weight of the world on these shoulders, keep a couple pounds
[00:44.63]Tend the grass, prune the trees, I keep the grounds
[00:48.17]Salt of the earth, bent back with a hoe his whole life
[00:50.94]Sat up in the hearse, gave him quite a fright (Ahh)
[00:53.76]Rigor mortis on the cordless mic
[00:55.30]Like in memoriam, cite my sources
[00:57.39]Antipop Consortium, Co-Flow, and every line of "Accordian" (Every line)
[01:01.00]Leave the comments on, the racism pourin' in (It's not working)
[01:06.56]This is how I win (The nigga's more powerful than ever)
[01:07.97]Charged up so much, it darkened my skin
[01:10.40]I'm the one, I'm the beginning and the end
[01:12.28]I'm the glowing sky, burning air, cinders in the wind
[01:15.57]"It should've been you", whispered by dead friends
[01:18.08]And you know it's true, the hour's late, light dim
[01:20.95]Knock knock, "Guess who?" eyes red-dimmed
[01:23.12]Lookin' 'round the den like, "You did alright off all that shit we did
[01:27.05]You did alright, but you forgot about the kid" (Yeah)
[01:29.86]Had to do 'em greasy like cold spare ribs in the sallow glow of an open fridge
[01:34.56]Every verse sharper tonight like a shiv
[01:37.03]Pelican Bay when I'm alone in the crib
[01:39.50]I ground niggas down like Coach Thibs
[01:42.24]Phone ring off the hook (Hate to see it), they wanna know where the bodies is hid
[01:45.22](Conductor)
[01:47.74]Misshapen pigs
[01:49.66]Wander the countryside
[01:51.79]
[01:56.23]He's been calling me
[01:58.15]Can I speak with the police?
[01:59.73]He just keeps on calling
[02:02.25]Just stay inside that house
[02:03.19]He's been calling me
[02:04.72]Can I speak with the police?
[02:07.45]He just keeps on calling
[02:08.52]Just stay inside that house
[02:11.16]Why are you doing this, and what do you want?
[02:14.54]Stop calling me you sick-
[02:19.83]Coming from inside the house
[02:22.64]
[02:28.23]You probably thought the time gizmo was my wallet (This thing be bugging like the celly fronting)
[02:30.62]A hint of Hemsworth (Who the hell is honey?)
[02:34.76]
