DJ Premier - Out There lyrics

[Hook]: Is anybody out there? I hope He heard my prayers last night It's gettin' cold The streets we know Is anybody out there? [Verse One]: It's like a jungle sometimes Circus within us A motion picture worth a million bars, I'm no beginner My poppa taught me to go hard, physically thinner The number on my soul is old, it shine and shimmers Glows like ? and gold cause God is in us Elevate the game, sittin' on hoops like Michael Bivens Huh It's automatic The devil calls it magic Nah this ain't no Harry Potter more like Garvey and Assata Tussle with wicked warriors from Africa to Georgia Watts to Copenhagen, slaughter pagans up in Persia Kids doin' bids ? on every corner ? paparazzi smile and you might get shot My favorite uncle all my life, yeah he smoked crack rock My granny cried up to Heaven, she would beg him to stop The streets is cold hearted, f** pullin' my pants up Hands stuck together hope them prayers get answered Damn [Verse Two]: Yo, city high like Pluto The beat of my flow gonna k** like Judo I'm Iron Mike and y'all Frank Runo Give it to anybody, I'm hombre uno A star at an early age, just like Menudo Feared in the Octagon, similar to sumo You know Elevator finest, primest, remind this Timeless Take it from your highness Give me the rock Shaq in the key Hottest in the arena, n***a 3 R.D Eye of the tiger Build an empire Bow to your sire City never tire I've been a boss, I hire and fire Scorchin' hot, like the flame on a lighter n***a Every verse that I drop is a cla**ic The hardest n***a walkin' till they drop the casket [Verse Three]: It's like the coming of a king Till nine months later a prince hits the scene Now we, smokin' all the weed, drinkin' all the Patron Askin' me what it means like Natron Son, I've been on this sh** since day one Y'all n***as pipe down, I'm finna say somethin' North side of town where they keep the stainless Make you put your hands up on some hip hop hooray sh** I'll put the blade to your fade like a facelift And that's just on some every other day sh** Burnin' both ends of the candle, I stay lit Just me, girls on my Wii, tryin' to stay Fit I maintain my high like a spaceship Pure dope, nothin' stepped on, you can taste it And I laced it Yeah they still hate it Cause when I rock I shine like a Beacon no Mavis [Verse Four]: This is something for the fiends to get 'em higher We takin' over the corn as we your new supplier Yeah, I get high on my own supply Cause everybody else sh** don't get me that high There's quality, I got quantity My boys push it in too, see we all gon' eat Call me Marlo, whether our flow Nino Brown Where the beats go down You heard about it So you come around cause you want some of that One hit, whoo!
