Oddisee - k**ing Time lyrics

[Verse 1] Grew up on that Rap-A-Lot Grew up on that Native Tongues Beats be like I trap a lot Rhyme like all I say is signed That's DC though, we made them one That's 95, north and south In the middle of the drive where I reside Is what I'm talking about, lets take a ride It's where I learned to rhyme, n***as learned to aim And we target minds and we target brains And we grip the chrome, be a microphone Or that other thing man it's all the same A lot of rappers came, a lot of rappers left But if possessions stayed and we in the depths No referees and that call was made On that ballin' played and we intercept And I handed drink tickets to my n***as in the club Cause I don't sip nothing unless it's coming in mug No I ain't without advice, always doing what you like Got a price to quite like any other drug No I didn't go to Howard and I never wished I had And I wasn't in the ave and I wasn't in a cla** But I was in a lab turning music into math In a dorm room too and I ain't never have a pa** Where 16th and Euclid meet High fructose, she super sweet Hit Ten-Town, Maggiano's Then Georgetown for the movie seat There's new school and old too Eating organic with a gold tooth Getting ignorant like no school Or the world I was exposed too, cause [Hook] x2 PG raised me, DC made me NY paid me, all around the globe My crew crazy, do it on a daily Watch that hustle, y'all already know I be on the grind like I'm running out of time But I'm doing what I love so the clock move slow Murder isn't a crime when you just k**ing time Go [Verse 2] Woke up out in Moscow Fell asleep in Reykjavík Wrote this verse right on the plane Tell your man to send the check Drive me to my hotel Make this beat along the way Then put that in your dropbox My n***a why you take so long to pay Wrote a song at sound check Interview before the stage That's two countries, beats and rhymes One show, normal day What you call a hustle I call rest time And your deadline pushed and I need less time I'm a man of the stars Relativity is law And me and Einstein learned how to stretch time Science only answers how Religion only answers why The two combined is the true design So respect to God cause he drew the lines I'm chasing paper, I'm chasing paper The world is C.R.E.A.M. and I'm going green Ultraviolet hit my eyelids Lime light tanning on the scene My skin is bronze like Jesus feet My hair is wool, my fleece is sheep My Skully off My album out And I'm ahead releasing heat Like all the time in the world I've got No clock to watch, no need to speed I don't ask for; I take my time And I want more than I could ever need, cause [Hook] x2
