The Urban Sophisticates - Coward's Anthem lyrics

Chorus: I know I'm not the handsomest And the car that I drive ain't the fanciest But if I took a couple inches off the waistline Would it be enough for you to want to be mine? I got one hand on the steering wheel gripping it gangster Automatic maintaining civilized mind Set the third eye to afterlife Word on my heart here's to the NYFD A moment of silence (shhh) September left my heart heavy Fallen towers buried pieces of my dreams See the life we're livin isn't always what it seems And back to maintaining there is hope for tomorrow I think I love you and I never really said it It's more than a feeling and I tried to play the low key It ain't workin now I'm steady back pedaling It's plain to see I'm such a mess when you leave me I snap out of it and try to play the tough guy Shucks hustle for a buck in the 9 to 5 *Clefs stated all I'm tryin to do is stay alive My pride breaks and I hate it when you leave me Chorus x2 Tall brother with a cut off shirt *Old ride still putting work I'm not lazy won't you please believe me I'm just a brother that likes to chill With my dreads down In school I was a cla** clown I feel at home when I get down Oh man bout to sing again Said hair down My brother was a cla** clown I feel at home when I get down If you don't mind won't you be mine Chorus x2 You got one hand on my heart The other's on my music Perusing cla**ic titles sweetie try not to lose it Inside I got a crush, blush – impossible, I'm black The only change of color is the fitted Philly's hat And still I feel the change in pace is premature I mean one for the game to pay residuals and playin 'Purple Door' Drop a record in Japan and do a show with Adam Dierex (?) Be the first rapper to be the craft of rapping backwards Sounds good don't it Like I got it figured out Like I can even dream about it without having You around The critics call me Rain King Cause my style is out of place Was I born to mourn my father's d**h or is it just a phase Whatever Let's take it back like Cosby sweaters And choose to soothe blues with a cruise that's more better We could drive around town (town) chillin just be And not say a word when it's just you and me Chorus x4
