Organized Noize - Babylon lyrics

[Verse 1: André 3000] I came into this world high as a bird From second hand c**aine powder I know it sounds absurd I never tooted but its in my veins While the rest of the country bungies off bridges Without no snap back And b**hes they say they need that To shake they fannies in the a** clubs They go the other route Turn each other out Burn each other out Where a bona fide n***a like me Can't even get no back rub these days Ain't that bleak on they part But let me hold it down, cause they shut you down When you speak from your heart Now that's hard While we ranting and raving bout gats n***a, they made them gats They got some sh** that'll blow out our backs From where they stay at [Hook] Ooooh, I fear the battle's just begun Ooooh, though we're here someday we will be gone So I'm hoping, wishing, praying To keep my faith in you, in you,in you [Verse 2: André 3000] I'm fascinated by the way yo Nipples peak at me through yo blouse Freaky me, freaky you Can't help but be aroused 'Scuse me, Lord lustful thinking But that's the way we was brought up Sneaking to watch Playboy at night We all must be caught up in worldly ways Chemistry between boys and girls Is a lot like when we went to the woods And laid with the squirrels During P.E., we'd be Exploring each others privates Hunching with all our clothes on Until we felt excited then, aaaah Oh now its on from here on out Put yo hands in the atmosphere If you know what I'm talking bout Now if too harsh then walk on out And I'll see you on the next song They call it horny Because its devilish Now see we dead wrong [Hook] Ooooh, I fear the battle's just begun Ooooh, though we're here someday we will be gone So I'm hoping, wishing, praying To keep my faith in you, in you,in you [Verse 3: Big Boi] People don't know the stress I'm dealing with day to day Speaking about the feeling I'm possessing for Renee Moping around and wondering where she stay Saw her last that she lay Give it another day I say But the lord he taketh away Now give it back lawd Cause that's like backboards without the rims Me and my auntie was tight like Southwest Before the pinks moved in Like the n***as who owned the liquor store Crack c**aine, pimps and who*es Living up on this earth Before a n***a like daddy was born But they be making it seem That my music and crime are a team But I'm speaking the truth not dreams So what in the f** they mean My lyrics ain't clean Ooooh, I fear the battle's just begun Ooooh, though we're here someday we will be gone So I'm hoping, wishing, praying To keep my faith in you, in you Ooooh, I fear the battle's just begun Ooooh, though we're here someday we will be gone So I'm hoping, wishing, praying To keep my faith in you, in you Ooooh, I fear the battle's just begun Ooooh, though we're here someday we will be gone So I'm hoping, wishing, praying To keep my faith in you,my faith in you, my faith in you My faith in you,my faith in you,my faith in you,my faith in you My faith..
