Decatur Psalm Lyrics

[00:15.96] I call the crib they say, "Breeze you ain't know?"
[00:19.22] I say, "What?" "Big Time got popped in his Benzo"
[00:22.20] I said, "Damn man, I'm riding in his Lexus
[00:25.26] I'm bout to dump this nigga's shit in New Dimensions"
[00:28.18] Get to the crib so I can call Big Slate up
[00:30.97] And tell 'em the money man done slipped and got his throat cut
[00:33.93] And everything that we took from the warehouse
[00:36.73] I heard somebody talking 'bout it at the White House
[00:39.79] Man, I thought you said that this job was for me and you
[00:42.42] I ain't know that Bill Clampett wanted some too
[00:45.93] You tell his folks that I'm sorry 'bout that Lexus
[00:48.25] I'm 'bout to dip and see my sister up in nah
[00:51.52] Can't even tell you where I put my extra playa card
[00:54.39] 'Cause them Red Dog police know we homeboys
[00:57.40] Just tell everybody who owe us a dime
[00:59.84] "It's the great ho, 'round up yo money time"
[01:03.05] I got to have mine, then I'm outta here
[01:05.64] Take a loss, come back up just like Coco Grier
[01:08.65] Ain't got to worry bout yo' partner getting caught like a lame
[01:11.63] It won't be over 'til that big girl from Decatur sang
[01:14.60] (It won't be over 'til that big girl from Decatur sang
[01:17.64] East Point police don't know a damn thang)
[01:20.55] Yeah, it won't be over, check this out
[01:26.23] Can you see what I be hearing talking to spirits when I sleep?
[01:29.47] Peep this out real quick Slick, we gets on this beat and speak
[01:32.57] About that pimp shit, that walk with dat limp shit, that hemp shit
[01:35.57] Looking up in your face I see a coward and a dimwit
[01:38.30] Looking to run up in my private home just like you was the folks
[01:40.99] Serving a warrant to a baby daddy, who didn't come to court
[01:44.31] On a Tuesday, April Fool's Day, don't get caught slipping
[01:47.34] Leaving the keys off in the ignition, making me guilty by suspicion
[01:50.15] Penny pinchers trying to stack for ninety-six
[01:52.47] Buying another Fleetwood, Diamond took it, so know we's in the mix
[01:55.90] I need to take my ass to the crib and drop the baby off
[01:58.65] 'Cause them niggas at the corner sto' been looking at me for too long
[02:01.78] Staring like accidents on highways, high days are better than sober ones
[02:05.60] Don't be biased, but I know it has to come
[02:07.96] So I put two in the sky to let them know I'm babysitting
[02:10.74] Y'all don't know nothing 'bout Big Boi cause that nigga steady dipping
[02:13.61] It ain't over (why that, why that) 'til the bitch open her mouth up
[02:16.89] And sang, yeah
[02:24.76] Took me a long time to get here
[02:27.71] Long time man
[02:31.68] I'm talking about, years, and years
[02:34.46] Riding past funeral fields, holding bodies of my peers
[02:37.72] If you don't educate yourself
[02:40.01] Now how the fuck you gonna understand how you 'posed to get paid?
[02:43.26] Niggas walk around get with shade tree ass ways
[02:46.72] Fuck a fade, let my hair drag
[02:48.84] Back and forth like a see-saw
[02:51.02] Jumping Lily, to lilypad dag
[02:53.69] Looking to get my Goodie feel
[02:55.53] I'm broke in like some old men
[02:57.78] Who'd stop dem or would stop
[02:59.89] I'm dropping lines for the big plot
[03:01.98] Sixteen is when I started this dream
[03:04.42] It's ninety-six I'm in your face
[03:05.99] Can you hear that bitch scream?
[03:07.47] (It won't be over 'til that big girl from Decatur sang)
