Cyne - Elephant Rome lyrics

[Verse 1: Akin] I heard Akin got the fiends copping real hop and been rocking sh** hot since Kane, Rakim, Big, Pac and Reebok and Rob Base's “Takes Two”. Strikes hit in Beirut Crackers in the White House and weak rap that make you Recognize finally just why y'all rewinding me Like Cube in the tape deck—bet that's what the CYNE'll be Hardcore sonically, circa 80-now sh** All I see: s**—and f** it. I renounce this Eight-man, hip hop gorilla, all-monkey type sh**'s surreal—for real, I'm living in a twilight Catch me if you can cause, man, I'm time bandit Trapped in Jim Crow South with John Landis Peace-love n***a, but damn. I can't stand this I'd rather talk race, war, s**—that's quite candid Cool n***a who figured I'd be the new n***a No shame or guilt, though. Casanova thrill—mo' Ladies with they legs wide—goodbye to dil*os Yeah, goodbye to dil*os [Hook: Akin] So what you want? That music that bump? Then give it up For these two n***as at work and bet it up, f**a Live on the set—that's us. Elephant stomp You little earthling chump. And keep it moving like Them boys don't know how to stop. So call the cop Cause a New World Order—we are Elephant Rome [Verse 2: Cise Star] Spark radiant, shine summer fire that works wonders He ice-gla** prism in the sun that blinds others The serpent and the rainbow—he bright like Day-Glo Colors within the black light a price to pay, though He's still like three a**a**ins—stance of a dragon With eyes of brown fire, he breathes with a pa**ion Deeper than coal mines—my mind is disaster f** up sh** like FEMA—no help for you ba*tards Loves to pick fights with third world regimes Adult Swim through wet dreams. Final Fantasy king Pilot without a jet jet-set, so who's next? Aviator with legal papers, walking the line—yes, yes So what's the reason? It's the focus and thesis Creativity my deity—I worship uniqueness Searching for peace tearing me into pieces It's smoke and mirrors—don't fall for cheap tricks [Hook: Akin] So what you want? That music that bump? Then give it up For these two n***as at work and bet it up, f**a Live on the set—that's us. Elephant stomp You little earthling chump. And keep it moving like Them boys don't know how to stop. So call the cop Cause a New World Order—we are Elephant Rome [Verse 3: Akin] To my family, I drift apart. Can't blame it on the art This music I made my love. I chose the life. I was A schoolboy, big dreaming. Naïve youth gleaming In me was old souls. They begged to scroll poems Inspired by Nasir Jones to write the life unknown Break from robotic life. Plus, I'm aquatic type Free as spring water. It's like I gotta prove self So I sing harder. Hoping I'm understood My time like see-saw. Paradise Slice night today and bring war. Reality. Therefore Apologies will go to Ife, Moji, and Kemi, hug my nephew It's been a minute Damn, Rashid Lynn's pen handed me ammo To break out the jungle. Rumble—I'm now Rambo Rounds on my waistline—shoulder kids, scramble Quick for the fix while you trap stars ramble On your big yacht, big chain—k** sambo Y'all awaited hip hop emancipated MTV wack rap crack sedated The souls of black folk sold for gold-plated Ornament. Man, peace hip hop belated Peace hip hop belated
