Rapsody - Pretty Balloons lyrics

[Produced by Eric G] [Verse 1: Rapsody] Uh, you just rap huh? Got you lookin' like a mascot, imagine y'all My team play like all-stars we all stars Y'all alright, I live that for real life tryna reach Pharrel life Haha, you just wanna be happy It's a different world when you ain't Maggie When you young black and nappy they like “Oh God!” We come in peace they come with pieces that go “pow pow!” But we don't bow down, they like “wow them n***as strong” We come from kings, clown, what you thought homie? Peep my man's crown, ya, you know HaLo He never one to leave the scene like Fargo [Verse 2: HaLo] Right before dawn the red crescent was born Lens limitation my capture was wrong C'mon we ain't never got along Wastin' times you'd be memorizing Qu'ran Fresh from medina, mesmerized by meanings Devoured by demons the straight path I'm leanin' Luxury so lavish and lathed As the world turns I watch it all fade What you afraid that everything you put meanin' in could mean nothing? That's somethin' My soul so serene, I told this little thing we should get our act clean She said ‘Lo, what you mean? Never mind girl, scream I Serengeti'd the scene, no time is space when I travel the light beam I glow forever, darkness spread but the light is clever So I glow, I glow forever Darkness spread and he said get your bread n***a Ooh, tire skipping', slippin', swervin', entirely different Ooh, arisin' edition, ghost of elliptian Path bring truth all kinds of dough Vapour rise, no time to smoke I see music in colours my sisters and brothers This is another ma'f**in kaleidoscope, yea Set sail untie the rope Natural currents'll show us the world On Africa's shoulders, the globe was hurled [Spoken] Because the black has done extra-ordinary remarkable things in the past and it only within recent times within this century in fact, that the black has had a chance to look at his own history with his own eyes and to re-write it
