Lushlife - Gymnopedie 1.2 (ft. Shad) lyrics

[Verse 1: Shad] Growing upwards I was just another young brother in the suburbs I discovered that I loved words As a teenager in the 90s green pager, Nautica jacket, Nia Long screensaver Had the newest slang down pack, Boomerang soundtrack Playing in my room playing hoops laying down raps Swore I would get to the point 3 albums later I'm like Biggie singing to fans “gimme one more chance” Forgive me I wanna get it right and get busy My record gets spins and in turn I get dizzy You know the drill spin and tryna dig deep Just past six feet touch that mystery I misread the signs and I find myself lost But I only know I was lost when I find myself When I can see I wonder why I blind myself I know I just forget to remind myself This is rap for the raps fans DeRozan on the break over breaks This is that jam Photo of your ex girl in the trashcan This a CT scan of a simple black man This that Lushlife For those tough nights Can't stand up right blood types Bud Light And metropolis is falling on top of us Banks and the Bibles all closed so we profitless Take a close look At what they offer us If you don't dig it redefine prosperous And that's nothing but some common sense confidence New cla**ics on cla**ical opulence [Outro] We gon get a little something straight here in the place to be. Don't worry about it DJ Lee in the place to be. We gon get a little something straight here in the place to be. 1,2 1,2 1,2 How many people think Busy Bee Starski rocked the house? (cheers) I hear that in the place to be. Yea. But if y'all notice it or not, you know I heard a lot of sh** you know Busy Bee is poppin sh** saying he'll take out any MC and all that. I give it to the man, he know how to rock the crowd, but when it come to having rhyme, ain't no way he can f** around and I'mma prove that right now. In the place to be MC Kool Moe Dee the coolest of the cool can't nobody rock like me. Remember this: Cold Crush Four in the house. My man LA sunshine in the place to be. We gon have a little fun, have a little fun. DJ Lee you think you got it together yet? One two…
