Donatello was a Don and not an honest fellow
In Montebello with Monty off a couple portobellos
Y'all, the bellows only gorgeous if you bow to industry
But the ministry bit off more than they can chew with me
So will it be you or me? Who makes it through the flames?
Measuring utility between the beauty and the brain
Y'all dookie on the pinky, shock jockeys
Every couple links I hear a couple Thought copies
I wanna know who got me, but I guess it's not you
Every trust fall, you drop me, 'cause you missing the cue
Every time I drop tunes, they just too distant to view
'Cause you prefer perfume, cover up the Pepe Le Pew
My love too heavy for you, so you dismiss it as hate
Tell you all what not to do, and then I suffer the wait
Watch you disregard the plate I served, eat your veggies
Y'all should pay me by the word, you heard my thoughts, now where my pennies?
Catch 'em walking where they shouldn't be
Get 'em!
Catch 'em wearing what they shouldn't wear
Get 'em good!
Don't be messing with our energy
Get 'em out the hood!
'Cause it's messy when we going there
Get 'em, got 'em, good!
Catch 'em walking where they shouldn't be
Get 'em!
Catch 'em wearing what they shouldn't wear
Get 'em good!
Don't be messing with our energy
Get 'em out the hood!
'Cause it's messy when we going there
Get 'em, got 'em, good!
So ruthless, thinking "how should I do this?"
Yo, who's this? Created a New Hope like George Lucas
But this ain't Star Wars, I'm grounded like hard floors
Lyrically do parkour, bring smoke like cigar stores
Underground railroad, tryna see where this trail goes
That one sparrow who turned into a young Pharaoh
Who wants to step in the ring? Stop disrespecting the King
It's time to wake up like the end of a dream
They don't want to see you hustle, they want to see you struggle
They only watch 'em play the game so they can see 'em fumble
I know how hard it is to be a part of this life now
The only time you got to count on is like right now
There's no time in the day when you gotta decide now
You change your life when you change your lifestyle
Failure is never in my mind, it couldn't be an option
I be sonning all these rappers like I seek adoption
Catch 'em walking where they shouldn't be
Get 'em!
Catch 'em wearing what they shouldn't wear
Get 'em good!
Don't be messing with our energy
Get 'em out the hood!
'Cause it's messy when we going there
Get 'em, got 'em, good!
Catch 'em walking where they shouldn't be
Get 'em!
Catch 'em wearing what they shouldn't wear
Get 'em good!
Don't be messing with our energy
Get 'em out the hood!
'Cause it's messy when we going there
Get 'em, got 'em, good!
you've got to love reflective, often claustrophobic, and cryptically heartfelt hiphop, especially when the artist does most of their own production The Thought
probably gonna be the best underground record of 2020, barring something truly phenomenal that I'm not anticipating. deep, dense, decadent. The Thought
