J Dilla - Purple lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, yeah That sh** to make your head nod, feel me? [Verse 1] Okay I'm sick of all this politicin' This is the product of the problem children We never listened, start spittin' to calm the tension Pay attention 'fore they steal your soul Or 'fore you sell it if you dumb enough to walk that road It's funny how the brightest people always coming from the darkest places I hear 'em shooting and looting, my city getting crazy But I never stopped creating, that's just what I couldn't do Fed up with these lies they spoon-feeding to the broken youth I know the truth, I'm not a conscious rapper I'm just not another actor Putting out all this bullsh** to get the money faster So f** a Fort Knox, f** how many knots you got f** how many cops you shot, is it real? Probably not Slanging rock, k**ing off our own neighbors It's a f**ed up situation when they playing with your pay check So you hittin' licks, flipping bricks, dreaming 'bout getting rich Drug money's fast, they don't think about the consequence Your kids are seeing this happen, so how you feel? Looking for a cheap thrill, railing pills trying to k** the guilt This is the life of so many up on my side of town You f** around, they'll put you in the ground [Interlude] Throw your double-u up, screaming free all of the homies Bury me in Naptown, with a blunt and a 40 with love [Verse 2] And I'm, lost in transition, out of my mindstate, I'm so gone Wandering, pondering rhythms to make your soul grow Hop in the whip and just dip up out of the school zone Pack of Swishers, b**hes hitting Twitter 'bout that Cruz song 'Lot of 'em doubted me, to this day they still say I'm nothing But I got something that y'all don't have when the beat is bumping I see the lights and I see the stages, it's so amazing How we can become the greatest when we come from the basement We sonning now, f**ing up the underground Overstand my ammunition is b**hes dissing the older sound Acting like I ain't at the necks of these coming rappers Happens, my sh** is slapping They laughing while I'm just crashing Smoking purple, smoking, smoking...
