[Intro: Phonte]

Yo

New Tigallo New Tigallo New Tigallo

430...

7...7, 730...

2..215


[Verse 1: Phonte]

Ayo, don't need a new style, bein dope is always in fashion

Peace to the West Coast Montage, Fa-shawn

Everything's in house, don't need a man-sion

Doper than the last one, pussy niggas soundin like Meow Mix

I spit that foul shit, And 1

Everybody's swingin, holla at me if you land one

Don't need perfection, just pass-ion

And don't need to be signed, I ain't got a fuckin cast on!

Lot of opportunity, easy bread I passed on

It just felt troublin, now class is in session

And we got them testers bubblin like Scantron

Fresh out the kitchen, signed with a stamp on

I'm on some greatness, y'all on some lateness

With no foundation so it could never last long

I display patience, I done played Jason

It's Saturday the 14th, fuck you got a mask on, nigga?

C'mon


[Hook: Phonte (Jeanne Jolly)]

Pushin me to the brink

A stagger in my footsteps and I don't even drink

It's so much on my mind, dog, and I can't even think

(It feels like everything is falling down)

Pushin me to the brink

A stagger in my footsteps and I don't even drink

It's so much on my mind, dog, and I can't even think

(It feels like everything is falling down)


[Verse 2: Phonte]

They say the 336 is what raised 'em

But the 919 made 'em

Stark, raving rhyme like he ain't got the good sense God gave 'em

Anybody on his bad side, God save 'em

Late night by the bedside, God, praise Him

He's the captain that told me to kneel

And when I was surrounded by them monkey-ass niggas

He told me to peel, broke free of my deal

And left shackles, racin like Petty in the stock

Now we heavy on the block like guards and left tackles

See where I come from and you and yours are up in arms

Like gunrunners, and you are confronted with

99 problems and can't keep it 100

Then at the day's end you ain't really done nothin

I made a new lane for myself and said, "Fuck it"

Why rage against the machine when you can just unplug it?

Forreal


[Hook: Phonte (Jeanne Jolly)]

Pushin me to the brink

A stagger in my footsteps and I don't even drink

It's so much on my mind, dog, and I can't even think

(It feels like everything is falling down)

Pushin me to the brink

A stagger in my footsteps and I don't even drink

It's so much on my mind, dog, and I can't even think

(It feels like everything is falling down)


[Verse 3: Phonte]

Eastside, Bingham Street repper

Tay rock the spot like I'm half-leopard

And pray for you lames like I'm half-leper

If it don't fill the coffers, motherfuck the offers

Ah-choo at you niggas like I'm black pepper

With wine and some fava beans, I'm half-Lecter

King, shit Kane, shit no half-stepper

They say, "Why would he?" They say, "How could he?"

That's how they push me to the brink

Stagger in my footsteps and I don't even drink

It's so much on my mind, dog, and I can't even think

(It feels like everything is falling down)

Yo... listen


[Hook: Phonte (Jeanne Jolly)]

They pushin me to the brink

A stagger in my footsteps and I don't even drink

It's so much on my mind, dog, and I can't even, uh, uh, I can't even

(It feels like everything is falling down)


[Outro: Phonte]

Ayo

919, 910, 252, 704 (falling down)

336 (It feels like everything is falling down)

I'm on my Carolina shit... (falling down)

New Tigallo New Tigallo New Tigallo New Tigallo

Young Khrysis...

(It feels like everything is falling down)
