BUILDING BLUEPRINT
Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
n.y state of mind
- Rappers, I monkey flip 'em with the funky rhythm I be kickin'
- Musician, inflictin' composition of pain
- I'm like Scarface sniffin' cocaine
- Holding an M16, see with the pen I'm extreme, now
- Bullet holes left in my peepholes
- I'm suited up in street clothes, hand me a nine and I'll defeat foes
- Y'all know my steelo with or without the airplay
- I keep some E&J, sitting bent up in the stairway
- Or either on the corner betting Grants with the cee lo champs
- Laughing at baseheads tryna sell some broken amps
- G packs get off quick, forever niggas talk shit
- Reminiscing about the last time the Task Force flipped
- Niggas be running through the block shootin'
- Time to start the revolution, catch a body, head for Houston
- Once they caught us off guard, the Mac 10 was in the grass and
- I ran like a cheetah with thoughts of an assassin
- Pick the Mac up, told brothers, "Back up," the Mac spit
- Lead was hittin' niggas, one ran –I made him backflip
- Heard a few chicks scream, my arm shook, couldn't look
- Gave another squeeze, heard it click, "Yo, my shit is stuck"
- Try to cock it, it wouldn't shoot, now I'm in danger
- Finally pulled it back and saw three bullets caught up in the chamber
- So now I'm jetting to the building lobby
- And it was full of children probably couldn't see as high as I be
- (So what you sayin'?) It's like the game ain't the same
- Got younger niggas pulling the triggers bringing fame to their name
- And claim some corners, crews without guns are goners
- In broad daylight, stickup kids –they run up on us
- 45's and gauges, Macs, in fact
- Same niggas will catch a back to back, snatching your cracks in black
- There was a snitch on the block getting niggas knocked
- So hold your stash 'til the coke price drop
- I know this crackhead who said she's got to smoke nice rock
- And if it's good, she'll bring you customers in measuring pots
- But yo, you gotta slide on a vacation, inside information
- Keeps large niggas erasin' and their wives basin'
- It drops deep as it does in my breath
- I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
- Beyond the walls of intelligence, life is defined
- I think of crime when I'm in a New York state of mind
