So low that I don’t get high no more
When I “Geronimo!”, I just go “Eh”
Solo, my cup is a rojo, my cholo, my friend
So low that I can admit
When I hear that another kid is shot by the popo
It ain’t an event no more

[Killer Mike (El-P):]
Fashion slave, you protestin’ to get in a f–kin’ look book
Everything I scribble’s like The Anarchist Cookbook
(Look good, posing in a centerfold of Crook Book)
Black on black on black with a ski mask, that is my crook look
How you like my stylin’, bruh? Ain’t nobody stylin’, bruh
‘Bout to turn this mothaf–ka up like Riker’s Island, bruh
Where my thuggers and my cripples and my bloodles and my brothers?
When you n—-s gon’ unite and kill the police, mothaf–kas?
Or take over a jail, give those COs hell
The burnin’ of the sulfur, God damn I love the smell
Like it’s a pillow torchin’, where the f–k the warden?
And when you find him, we don’t kill him, we just waterboard him
We killin’ ’em for freedom cause they tortured us for boredom
And even if some good ones die, f–k it, the Lord’ll sort ’em

[Killer Mike:]
Bunches and bunches, punches is thrown until you’re frontless
Oodles and oodles, bang bullets at suckas’ noodles
Last album voodoo, proved that we was f–kin’ brutal
I’m talking crazy, half past the clock is cuckoo
You rappers doodoo, baby s–t, just basic boo boo
I’m Shaka Zulu, Mansa Musa, my money buku
My beats is bangin’, f–k what you rappin’, who produced you?
I slapped the snot, take what ya got and Run The Jewels you

[El-P:]
You itsy bitsy furry fright and frickin’ sickly
A little prickly, d–k on display for Winter swimming
Look at these kitties, Mike, I’mma rat-a-tat ’em for living
I deal in dirty work, do the deed and then dash, ditch ’em
I’d lend a hand but they stuck in a fist and gun position
We run our brand where destruction’s the number one commitment
It’s all a joke between mom contractions and coffin fittings
So we disappear in the smoke like we’re f–kin’ magicians

“Lines”
from Big Boi’s 2012 release Vicious Lies And Dangerous Rumors
Now that’s what I’m talking ’bout
Year of the ASAP Mob

[Verse 1: ASAP Rocky]
Lines – tell them read between it
Tripping while I’m slipping, busy fighting off these demons
Listen while I’m spitting boy, you probably won’t believe it
But life is so terrific, tell them pinch me if I’m dreaming
Revenue’s what I get get, your b—h is what I did hit
And I’m bout my business, them pesos what I did get
Made a hit, had a fix, they saying you’s the shiznit
Tell them get off my diznick, you bucketheaded b—-es
Crossing all the lines, time is only racing time
He flippin to the bars so I’m only raising mine
Depending on the grind is the only way to shine
So I’m feeling like that odds is the only state of mind
And it’s finna give me peace, life up in these streets
Equipped with a piece, case you n—s wanted beef
Cause man gave us laws and God gave us time
It’s the art of storytelling and I’m only telling mine

Verse 1:
Yeah!
Inslumnational Underground.
Thunder pounds,
when I stomp the ground.(Wooh)
Like a million elephants,
or silver back
Orangutans,
you can’t stop the train.
Who wants some?
Don’t come unprepared.
I’ll be there,
but when I leave there.
Better be a household name.
The weatherman tellin’ us
it ain’t gon’ rain.
So now we sittin in a drop top,
soaking wet.
In a silk suit trying
not to sweat.
Hittin’ somersaults with-
out the net.
But this’ll be the year that we
wont forget.
1-9-9-9!
Anno Domini,
anything goes!
Be what you want to be,
long as you know
consequences
are given for liv-
ing the fence is,
too high to jump in jail.
Too low to dig,
I might just touch hell.
HOT!
