[Verse 1: Jam Baxter]

Yeah

Stare down at the city (Then what?)

The bricks whisper: 'None of this was ever yours' (Never)

Greasy, little secrets and crumpled years are running wild

Stuffed in all my dresser drawers (Stuffed)

A string of lies tied on to the back of him

The kids watch, his eyes rocking and rattling

All crudely stuck to the background by the hundred

We picked at their edges and peeled 'em off of the packaging

(Yeah-yеah) Yeah, little lepеrs play in the rubble

The bugs fled our footsteps setting sail on the puddle

Tumbled in, dancing a celebratory shuffle

With a drooling date dressed in a negligee and a muzzle

Waking up at a ten o'clock and sweating off the party

She asked what I'm doing here

I said, "I'm on safari"

The whole crew's dusty

Terracotta army

In the back folding wraps, that's the Devil's origami

They're giving me side-eye in the offie

With this white rum stacked up sky-high in the trolley

With a flock of Devils drawn on the right-side of my body

I enjoy my ninth pineapple Mai Tai in the lobby

(Ayy) Ayy, sundown sundown (Sundown)

Storm clouds stuffed in my sleeves

The kid walks in, folds the whole room in half

Snips a hole in the air, slips under and leaves

[Verse 2: Black Josh & Nog]

She ducked her mouth but we talked it out like it's therapy

On a flight through the Middle East

Stopped in Tel Aviv

Tahiti hot, her bikini got me in disbelief

From beach-to-yacht, to then back in her block

Then, time to leave (umm)

Seen a lot

From the streets, so I'm walking my own path

Keep the shots, had a litre of Voss pouring in my glass

Tequila got señorita rocked, so it's time to dash

Speeding off

But need a shot before I reach the gaff

Boss looking at me funny 'cos I'm fully buzzing (yeah yeah)

Don't dare me right now if you think I wouldn't

Allegedly been doing most of the things they say I shouldn't

Making money how I got to, I can't wait on nothing (no)

Toasting every win turned to self-destruction

Chasing dreams and drinks in the club

Too much on my mind, can't even function (No way)

I just need some head and I'm good (Yeah, yeah)

Ten toes in my size 9's, it's Joshy

I was stood in centre-stage with the bright lights, feeling godly

Rubbing my eyes, they study, my highlights, but they're novice

I'm on primetime digging the skyline from the office

(Uh, uh, uh) Grinding 'til sundown, sundown

Signed a contract, can we yacht now?

Ayy, I got bills to pay, charge it to the game (Yeah)

Yeah, I got a blimmer, flames, Spiderman with Mary Jane (Ahn, ahn)


[Verse 3: Nog]

Esse instrumental sombrio é o puro vodu

Contato paranormal: eu, minha caneta, e um whisky duplo do blue

Eu dou meu sangue igual um furo no pulso

Meu lado obscuro te assusta tipo criança no escuro, né? (Boo)

A AR-15 canta (Tu-du-du-du, tu-du-du-du)

Terceiro mundo é assim, fome de morte, mais que a de um urubu

Vários amigos são do corre, uns caíram, te juro

Que, nessa bala, eu sempre penso se eu pulo ou não pulo

Tipo a navalha dos Shelby, cortei umas asa' com o rap

Escreve uma rima que presta, não sou o que vai pôr na selfie assim

This shit is poetic, get it, like Shakespeare

My pen will never drop on the paper, a fake deer

Uma da manhã com a chuva suja

Tem uns mano' que vende, porque tem vários mano' que usa

Na rua, nem sempre quem tá certo não tem culpa

Já vi inocente em fuga, cuidado com essa viatura

Uh, é por um fio, né?

Hoje eu tô em Londres e amanhã tô no Brasil, ó

Só abre o olho pra aquilo que 'cê não viu

Quem plantou a semente errada nem sempre tá com o fuzil


[Verse 4: Jehst]

When my vision is unboxed

You hear the sounds of a million gunshots

Ain't no goody-goody

But I'm billing the Gumdrops (Ayy)

Car trunk shake when the drum drops

Then we skate off on these Dunlops

Middle finger

What the bloodclaat? (What the bloodclaat?)

Props to the villains who run blocks

You can feel the wrath of the young gods

And that's squad (Sqwad)

Put 'em on the teeth of the god squad

The little man's lethal as Oddjob

We on job

Take the Don's spot?

That's a long shot

You're on a training day with the wrong cop

King Kong ain't got shit on me (Ain't got shit on me)

Jewels catch the light

They wanna throw shade, ain't hitting me (nah)

In my own lane

Ain't switching up

Any opp

Within close range is a sitting duck

Quack, quack (Quack)

Hit 'em with the abstract

Mugshot

Look like a gorilla in a snapback

Open hand slap for the fraudulent

That goes for all of 'em

Jacking my formula

Tryna track my coordinates

Now for my next trick

I need a volunteer from the audience

Ayo, big cheat never skin teeth when the camera click

I won't stand for your shit, Colin Kaepernick

Mary answered my prayers, I'm a Catholic

Cut the box in half, that's a magic trick


[Verse 5: Black Alien]

Fuzil? Que fuzil? Quem me viu mentiu

Quando o bico canta, ninguém fica pra contar, titio

Sem bigode, sem buço, sem alma

Sem cabeça pra botar chapéu, sem calma pra comprar vinil

Go Google me, sem essa de gugu pra mim

Eu vim chapado de erva e Dramin, enfim

Irritado e ranzinza de jetlag

Debaixo desse céu cinza, eu quero um disco de reggae

Gimme di hardcore, sem gelo no Scotch

Sem Scotland Yard, eu tô ligeiro nos bote

A hora do silêncio é contando os malote

A hora do barulho é sem contar com a sorte

Voodoo child

A gente morre jovem, isso faz a gente jovem e mal

[?] The Clash, drum

Nome dela tá na lista e não esquece o meu cash

Anarchy in the UK

Oi, nós aqui na terra da rainha que nem rei

Hello, hello, London calling me

Depois que eu fiz o show, mermão, não cola em mim

Exile on main street, serve o chá

Um, dois, três, às quatro e vinte, quase cinco já


[Verse 6: Xamã]

Viemos de Atlantis de jetski

Vejo o filme como livros, é o Xamã Bukowski

Índios vivos, pretos vivos, Campo Grande, London city

Me dá o beat que eu me viro, eu tenho um primo Robson que

Tomou um tiro igual DeNiro e assistia Roque Santeiro

'Cê não vai entender o que eu falo, isso é idioma de bueiro

Que duvido perder o calo, nós é pica, meu parceiro

Bota eu e o Black na track, garantimo' seu dinheiro

Ve-ve-ve, vejo Blazers, jovens infratores em Blazers

Armas com visão mira laser

Meu melhor professor tomando choque de Taser

Stranger Thing-ers, na rua, 'cê não passa dos quinze

Ah, Bangkok, alcoholic Hancock

Paranoico, parabólico, punk rock, Xamãzin', oh, fuck

Black-block, olha pra mina, eu te dou um boxe

Tudo na mala do Crossfox, tudo na conta do rei

Hoje meu Gol tá num Fox Sport, one, two, tô me sentindo [?]

Quantos deles são de nós?

Quantos deles são de nós? São de nós?

Quantos deles são de nós? Yeah, hmm

Voodoo child

A gente diz, "I love you", a gente diz, "I love you" e tchau
