Tairrie B - Sky Above, City Below lyrics

[Intro] And now for news of our own West Coast… Yo Tairrie, show em who's Ruthless! [Verse 1] The original with the subliminal verses So blasphemous with the cla**ic curses Cataclysmic as a wordsmith Darkness lurks beneath the surface Poetic catharsis, ominous on purpose The antithesis to the mindless bullsh** Hexing and better than I've ever been The only chick to go from rap to rock, back to rap again And goddamn, I'mma speak it my way Got the power of resurgence like Misty Day Resurrecting the past as I rep Los Angeles Streets sparkle from the dust of the vacuous Reviving my roots with confidence Conscience, no vapid s** over substance So I don't need no one to co-sign this Timeless with my superflyness [Chorus] No stars in the sky tonight, a storm's on the rise Winds blowing and the tides are high Don't be looking my way, if you're looking for a fight I don't care what you say just spell my name right No stars in the sky, storm's on the rise Winds blowing and the tides are high If you're looking my way, don't be looking for a fight I don't care what you say just spell my name right [Verse 2] Tairrie B. motherf**er remember me? s**er free Southern Cali with a colorful history The infamy precedes me But don't shake my hand if it's not nice to meet me Voice poised with authority, articulating fire In my verses like a lyrical cipher Mystical scryer, vocab spectacular Hail to the chick with the dope vernacular It's déjà vu so you must be trippin No strippin' just verbal riffin', listen I'm a Hollywood villain k**in' like Garbo Pre-code, Mata Hari chillin' at the Chateau Spittin' to this or screamin' to heavy metal Leavin' lipstick prints all over the instrumental Let the smoke settle while I take a new form So be warned I'm reborn in the house of Capricorn [Chorus] No stars in the sky tonight, a storm's on the rise Winds blowing and the tides are high Don't be looking my way, if you're looking for a fight I don't care what you say just spell my name right No stars in the sky, storm's on the rise Winds blowing and the tides are high If you're looking my way, don't be looking for a fight I don't care what you say just spell my name right From the desert to the sea to all of Southern California [Verse 3] Night falls on the LA skyline Iconic as a Hollywood sign Dramatic, you've been waitin' for this like an addict So sick when I summon the magick Hotter than the concrete jungle in sunshine Solidified with a Golden State of mind Took an oath to the West Coast And I respect the architects, con safos! Drawing down the moon like a daughter From the hills, highways to the water Call upon the winds as I craft my chant A lunar eclipse will manifest my wrath If the sky was God, I'd believe in him But the city is the Devil so I'm livin' in sin Speech unique, technique antique when I talk For Women In The Coven of Hip-hop [Chorus] No stars in the sky tonight, a storm's on the rise Winds blowing and the tides are high Don't be looking my way, if you're looking for a fight I don't care what you say just spell my name right No stars in the sky, storm's on the rise Winds blowing and the tides are high If you're looking my way, don't be looking for a fight I don't care what you say just spell my name right [Outro] (A scream) (A siren)
