Gnarls Barkley - Crazy (Official Video) [4K Remaster]
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I remember when
I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place
Even your emotions have an echo, in so much space, mmm
And when you're out there without care
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much, mm
[Chorus 1]
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Possibly
[Verse 2]
And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice, mm
Come on now, who do you
Who do you, who do you, who do you think you are?
Ha, ha, ha, bless your soul
You really think you're in control?
[Chorus 2]
Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
[Verse 3]
My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on the limb
And all I remember is thinkin' I wanna be like them, mm-hmm
Ever since I was little
Ever since I was little, it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done
[Chorus 3]
But maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably
[Outro]
Mm-woah, ooh
Ooh, woo-ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-hoo, mm-hmm

clipping. - Tipsy (Official Audio)
Lyrics:
[Intro: Dialogue Sample]
"Thank you, my dear. Ahh. And an excellent vintage it is, too. But if you're implying that I'm tipsy, sir—"
"Oh, of course he's not."
[Verse 1: Daveed Diggs]
One, here come the two to the three to the four
Everybody wrecked out on the dance floor
Smelling like sex, tryna flex for the score
Go 'head and bring the bottle, you ain't even gotta pour
Neon lights is bright enough to make the eyes sore
DJ got 'em hype enough, they crying for morе
Crowd is turnt, they loud as fuck, the bass is like a roar
This finna bе the night, they can feel it in they core
Here come the three to the two to the one
When the speakers clip, shit sound like a gun
If the pussy don't pop, then it wasn't any fun
And if you ain't come with squat, prolly you better run
She in the mosh pit, going crazy with the scum
He in the stall, sick, vision hazy from the rum
If you make it out alive, bet your ears finna hum for a day and a half—now relax, have fun
[Chorus: Daveed Diggs]
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
[Verse 2: Daveed Diggs]
Two, here come the three to the four to the five
If the music stop now, everybody prolly die
Weed smoke in the ’rr, everybody prolly high
"Oh you ain't? What, you think you better? Muh’fucker, bye"
Somebody getting stomped 'cause his eyes looking sideways
Crying like a bitch, took a hit off the high-grade
And ran back in, balling fists, looking irate
Grabbed that motherfucker, hung his ass off the fire escape
Here come the four to the three to the two
Somebody start crowdsurfing right out the blue
Air getting thick, can't breathe, but it's cool
Instead of living one life, you gon' need two
Two chains, two shots, too drunk, 2Pac (Hit 'em up)
Too late to stop, two more, do not— (Give a fuck)
Today is lost, tomorrow not— (Gonna come)
'Til sun come up, tonight is to— (Get drunk)
[Chorus: Daveed Diggs]
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
[Verse 3: Daveed Diggs]
Three, here come the four to the five to the six
Stabbing bound to happen if you acting like you rich
Or you was yapping to the cap'n, hear they clapping on a snitch
And smack him ninety-nine times just for acting like a hctib
Say it backwards for the radio or scratch it like a itch
Matter-fact, do not come back if you are sensitive to Ish
Not the white whale-chaser—straight shots, double-fist
Next week same time, hit the line around six
Way too savage on the average, daily, asses get the tips
Next established, you the ratchetest
They have to be the lick to hit for cabbage
Need a carriage at the front, so what is Lyft?
The shit is done before the sun come up, you know it's time to dip
[Chorus: Daveed Diggs]
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)
Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in this bitch gettin' tipsy)

Tarzan, the xcharacter, specifically, is racist.
The story is too but like. Very specifically is Tarzan racist. A French guy had to yell at him to be less racist.

Disney's version of Tarzan erasing all of the many Black characters from the story to petend Tarzan grew up in an "untouched pure wilderness" and never met another human being in his life until the white explorers show up is another example of the racist trope of "empty lands waiting to be civilized (by white people)"

Club Down by Clppng
Lyrics:
[Intro: Daveed Diggs]
Turn the lights off, they done shut the club down
Shut the club down, shut the, shut the club down
Turn the lights off, they done shut the club down
Shut the club down, shut the, shut the club down
[Verse 1: Daveed Diggs]
The schoolyard reeks of sewage, broken pipes, broken promise
The thin man staggers lucid for this time of night
Drying vomit dangles from the beard, step, mumble, shuffle, trip
But the trajectory is clear, he's headed for the covered steps
Tut, tut, it looks like rain
He remembers A. A. Milne each time the sky is this kind of grey
That or his favorite film, Gene Kelly
Leaping Technicolor through the fray and feeling glorious
The story is an allegory for his days, but night is coming now
Vials snap, aluminum sounds
Fibers slap as drops descend on tall cans
It's all hands on deck to chase the pain away
Dealers rockin' parkas with plenty pockets for product
The money, horrors, the logic and babies holler from colic
The symphony is tectonic, it shifts as the Earth is settlin'
Precious metals are mined
And a million minds have been meddlin' with time
In the hopes of getting a golden noose for the neck
Golden goose from a fairy tale, shittin' Fabergé eggs
Here snitches shit bricks, then quick to talk Pig Latin
That black dart too slick for that kid tappin' a window
While lookin' over his shoulder, stop lookin' over your shoulder
You're never caught from behind as long as you keep movin' forward
They long for the sleep like they mortal, these zombies
But they got this portal in their minds
And the molecules get rewired every trip they takin' through time
And they trippin' nightly, the blacks of the eyes igniting
The pits in the backyard biting, the cats in the trashcan fighting
The feeling of guns pealing like bells in a telltale reeling
Of bodies losing they feeling and falling down and the ceiling
Is black from the smoke that's rising, the scent is just so enticing
Descent is a small price for the right to live out your vices, now
[Pre-Chorus: Daveed Diggs]
Turn the lights off, they done shut the club down
Shut the club down, shut the, shut the club down
And every night after the club it goes down
Plenty, plenty, mo' rounds, bodies, bodies on the ground
On Broadway or Main Street they all stumble out
To a dozen pairs of hands pullin' bottles from they mouths
Hotties hardly walk now, everybody passed out
In the backseat of the taxi, so they never heard a sound
[Chorus: Daveed Diggs]
It's the city and the city and you only see one
And it all looked pretty when it all begun
But the shit has got to balance on the barrel of a gun
All the money in the world ain't gonna stop none of
That gangsta shit, that gangsta shit
The whole world lovin' that gangsta shit
Can't change this shit, it's dangerous
But it really ain't nuttin' to a gangsta
[Verse 2: Daveed Diggs]
Bitch, what you know about that? Don't act like a newbie
New D boys get jacked, what you need is a New Jack Swing
And a new truly discerning taste for the base, like a foodie
Harmony's cruelly high when it's on his step
Stepped on dope is a safety net
And the dope fiends cry but they don't regret
Everyone get high, go out 'til they
[Pre-Chorus: Daveed Diggs]
Turn the lights off, they done shut the club down
Shut the club down, shut the, shut the club down
Why you fightin' all the shit that make the world go 'round?
World go 'round, world, world go 'round
Turn the lights off, they done shut the club down
Shut the club down, shut the, shut the club down
Turn the lights off, they done shut the club down
Shut the club down, shut the, shut the club down
[Chorus: Daveed Diggs]
It's the city and the city and you only see one
And it all looked pretty when it all begun
But the shit has got to balance on the barrel of a gun
All the money in the world ain't gonna stop none of
That gangsta shit, that gangsta shit
The whole world lovin' that gangsta shit
Can't change this shit, it's dangerous
But it really ain't nuttin' to a gangsta
[Outro: Daveed Diggs]
Got the twenties and the fifties wrapped up under all the ones
Two for twenty, five for fifty, you could move a couple tons
You could put it in the blood or you could put it in the lungs
But, whatever you cough up, remember that it all begun with
That gangsta shit, that gangsta shit
The whole world lovin' that gangsta shit
Can't change this shit, it's dangerous
But it really ain't nuttin' to a gangsta

Lyrics:
[Intro]
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on)
Should've made the noose a little tighter
'Cause it ain't nobody dead—
Yeah
[Verse 1]
We who are about to bang them drums (Bang)
Beating on a dead body, riding shotgun (Ah)
Talking that shit, bitch, bite your tongue
See that ship over your city, better run (Run), run (Run)
Your war is like a board game where he come from
Already bored, claiming you're gang, "Pyong!" go the gun
Boy, he on some other shit, check your solar system, bitch
Don't let a motherfucker catch you sleeping at the wrong sun (Wrong sun)
Son a hater, send him into orbit
Higher than these motherfuckers claiming is they purpose
Turned and asked your partner why he started acting nervous
Rrr-r-rat! Keep talking, that's lip service
Rats! Decided it was time to hit the surface
Cats! Sleeping on it, write 'em off like cursive
Drown a fucking hater, his experience immersive
Now that he can feel it, call the doctors and the nurses up
[Chorus]
What you gon' do about it? Ain't nothing new about it
Should've made the noose a little tighter
'Cause it ain't nobody dead, just some muh'fuckin' riders
Air 'em out (Let 'em breathe), air 'em out (Got the fire!)
Air 'em out (Wanna see?), air 'em out (No!)
Should've made the noose a little tighter
'Cause it ain't nobody dead, just some muh'fuckin' riders
[Verse 2]
Try to play a killer soft like silk (Soft)
Ol' Frelk-ass gotta pay for the milk
Lies high off these lows when they step up in the party
Where they got up in they O's like some fucking Oankalis
So it's whips and chains (Chains), that's they game (Yup)
Like it was in bulk, back when a mack could slang
With his partners, tryna make his fucking name in the traps
All the way from Panshekara to the Kefahuchi tract (Pack)
Snatch a hoochie with a smile, tap her from the back
If somebody try to stop you, tell that dick to back-back
Back-back, back-back, stack racks, invisible
Five deep, strapped, hanging out a black dirigible
Playing shit is critical, masses massive
Masked mass murderer, mastiff
Barking at the moon that done been walked on, hit the kill switch
Your ass still moving backwards when they choke you with that real, trick!
[Chorus]
What you gon' do about it? Ain't nothing new about it
Should've made the noose a little tighter
'Cause it ain't nobody dead, just some muh'fuckin' riders
Air 'em out (Let 'em breathe), air 'em out (Got the fire!)
Air 'em out (Wanna see?), air 'em out (No!)
Should've made the noose a little tighter
'Cause it ain't nobody dead, just some muh'fuckin' riders
[Verse 3]
Come up off your smooth talk, playa, this raspy (Ahem)
You stuck on Morse code, playa, this ASCII
Your birthright make you scared to get nasty
The keyword is "Kemmer"—that's what your ass need (Yup)
Anybody bugging, get it in the mandible (Shit)
Got a problem, better hit 'em on they ansible
Ain't nobody flying just because they fly here
You could trip sets—real playas trip lightyears
Tightrope time, twinkletoes, and what?
Is you riding or not? E'erybody's hands up
Who they want? (Who they want?) Game over (Game over)
Old leech calling anyone who ain't sober
Old leaking-ass man in the corner
Talking that shit to the sky is a warning
You might wanna pay attention what he saying
'Cause the Ekumen ain't everything and these killers ain't playing, ho!
[Chorus]
What you gon' do about it? Ain't nothing new about it
Should've made the noose a little tighter
'Cause it ain't nobody dead, just some muh'fuckin' riders
Air 'em out (Let 'em breathe), air 'em out (Got the fire!)
Air 'em out (Wanna see?), air 'em out (No!)
Should've made the noose a little tighter
'Cause it ain't nobody dead, just some muh'fuckin' riders
[Outro]
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on, ride on, ride on)
(Ride on)

Malay, 6LACK - The Get Down - "Shaolin's Theme / Pray" Clip
Lyrics:
[Verse 1: 6LACK]
Born in the jungle, it's the lion's den
What the hell you gon' do when it's your time to spend
I'm thinkin' to myself "should I take that chance?"
Do I not? The streets callin' and it's in my hands
You either runnin' from the cops or you runnin' the block
Do the devil's work and hope you don't get shot
Yeah I'm still young but all work no play
Student of the game, one day sensei
Now I do anything for my fam
Even if that means I gotta push a couple grams
To get a couple grand
Momma told me it won't be easy
Runnin' through these streets in a flash, can't see me
I'd do anything for my fam
I might have to do some shit that you don't understand
To get a couple grand
Momma told me it won't be easy
[Hook]
So I bow my head and pray
So I bow my head and pray
Don't let 'em get in my way, ay
Don't let 'em get in my way
[Verse 2: 6LACK]
Proceed with caution, the city don't sleep
Just know that when you fam everybody gon' eat
My homie from the corner just passed last week
Said he would live forever when I asked last week
It's crazy I wanna be patient but
Time is tickin' I cannot waste it love
Money, power, respect, until I am the best
King of all things, it is I in the flesh
[Hook]
So I bow my head and pray
So I bow my head and pray
Don't let 'em get in my way, ay
Don't let 'em get in my way
[Hook]
So I bow my head and pray
So I bow my head and pray
Don't let 'em get in my way, ay
Don't let 'em get in my way
[Bridge: 6LACK]
Get it how I live
Follow what I feel
And I know I can use some change
But sometimes to make it out you gotta do some things
Get it how I live
Follow what I feel
And I know I can use some change
But sometimes to make it out you gotta do some things
[Hook]
So I bow my head and pray
So I bow my head and pray
Don't let 'em get in my way, ay
Don't let 'em get in my way
[Hook]
So I bow my head and pray
So I bow my head and pray
Don't let 'em get in my way, ay
Don't let 'em get in my way

[Intro: Scratches]
Help me out
Yo, yo, yo, yo!
Help me out
Yo, yo, yo, yo!
[Chorus: Boots Riley]
We’ve got 5 million ways to kill a CEO
Slap him up and shake him up and then you know
Let him off the flo’, then bait him with the dough
You can do it funk or do it disco (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Y'know how this go
We’ve got 5 million ways to kill a CEO

[Verse 1: Boots Riley]
Well I hope you testify that it was worth your waitin’
On the turf debatin’ how to get it percolatin’
He workin’ you while we happy just to work a day
But I'ma slap him ‘til my blood starts circulatin’ (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Do your checks have elasticity?
Did they cut off yo’ 'lectricity?
Did you scream and yell explicitly?
Force the boss into complicity (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
I’m a white chalk stencil but I push a pencil
Rollin’ dope fiend rentals through your residential
Broke as fuck, eatin’ lentils with no utensil
Finna teach pimp class with a ho credential (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
They own sweat shops, pet cops, and fields of cola
Murder babies with they molars on the areola
Control the Pope, Dalai Lama, Holy Rollers, and the Ayatollah
Bump this rollin’ in your bucket or your new Corolla
Well you might catch me on the scenic route, with my penis out
Yellin’, “Twamps for the executives with the meanest mouth!”
Wanna know what this demeanor’s 'bout? City tried to clean us out
Green is clout, shut 'em down, they ain’t never seen a drought
You interviewed but they ain’t callin’ you back
And for the record I ain’t called it a gat
But tuck this in the small of your back
Wait in the bathroom stall 'til I tap (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
[Chorus: Boots Riley]
We’ve got 5 million ways to kill a CEO
Slap him up and shake him up and then you know
Let him off the flo’, then bait him with the dough

'Cept this game ain’t slow, it’s the creeper
If you a janitor, get a street sweeper
Ugly is even skin deeper
If you can’t get the Pres, get the VeePer (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
They made the murder scene before there was a coroner
I mighta been born here but I’m a foreigner
Spillin’ swigs for victims of pigs and Afeni’s kid
Flip off the lid, who you pourin fo’? (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
You too could be a corporate green killer, bean spiller (uh)
“Gangster of Love” just like Steve Miller
They wear skivvies that’s made of chinchilla
Factory in Mexico, bought a spring villa
I’m from the land where the Panthers grew
You know the city and the avenue
If you the boss we’ll be smabbin’ through, and we’ll be grabbin’ you
To say, “Whassup with the ra-venue?” (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
And if you feel it we can even try to seal it with the
[Chorus: Boots Riley]
We’ve got 5 million ways to kill a CEO
Slap him up and shake him up and then you know

Let him off the flo’, then bait him with the dough
You can do it funk or do it disco (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Y'know how this go
[Verse 3: Boots Riley]
Tell him it’s a boom in child prostitution
When he show up at the stroll, give him lead restitution
You could throw a twenty in a vat o’ hot oil
When he jump in after it watch him boil (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Toss a dollar in the river and when he jump in
If you can find he can swim
Put lead boots on him and do it again! You and a friend
Videotape and the party don’t end (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Tell that boogers be sellin’ like crack
He gon’ put the little baggies in his nose and suffocate like that
Put a fifty in the barrel of a gun
When he try to suck it out, a-ha, well you know this one (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Make sure you ain’t got no priors
Don’t tell 'em that we conspired
We could let him try to change a flat tire
Or we could all at once retire (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
There are just a few of the
[Chorus: Boots Riley]
5 million ways to kill a CEO
Slap him up and shake him up and then you know
Let him off the flo’, then bait him with the dough
You can do it funk or do it disco (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)
Y'know how this go
5 million ways to kill a CEO
Slap him up and shake him up and then you know
Let him off the flo’, then bait him with the dough
You can do it funk or do it disco (Yo, yo, yo, yo!)

Take Me Home (feat. Gurrumul)
[Verse 1: Briggs]
You can’t contain my authority, restrain the minority
Take the head, everybody, and follow me
From a long line of leaders and warriors
I paved a path through the face of intolerance
[Verse 2: Trials]
Through the face of a colonist, half-arsed apologist
Celebrating death on Australia Day
More they making a change, more they staying the same
In a blink watch an officer turn into a coroner
[Verse 3: Briggs & Trials]
You ain’t got the balls to walk these corridors
Gripped with claws in Namorrodor’s jaws
“Everything’s getting hairy,” no doubt, brother
And if things don’t change, somebody’s getting buried
[Chorus: Briggs & Trials]
You wanna take this home? (Yeah)
Where it at though? I don’t know
Where it at though? I don’t know
They put a bed in a cell and they call that home
You wanna take this home? (Yeah)
Where it at though? I don’t know
Where it at though? I don’t know
And when I find that, leave it all behind and then I go
[Verse 4: Trials]
Yeah, I stay clever to the man
Hip to the game, watch them reclaim
Saw them speak up, watch them detained
Again, again, again, again
[Verse 5: Briggs]
They claim brotherhood, but never act how a brother would
Put it on my name, we ain’t the same, get it understood
And pass the nulla nulla to the other fulla
[Verse 6: Trials]
See, love is good, but love is blind
You got pride in what, son?
Leaving kids behind until they die and the rest getting locked up?
Nah, we making change, no question
Call myself Trials ‘cause my people don’t get them
[Bridge: Briggs & Trials]
Take me home
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home
(Yo, Cleverman)
[Chorus: Briggs & Trials]
You wanna take this home?
Where it at though? I don’t know
Where it at though? I don’t know
They put a bed in a cell and they call that home
You wanna take this home?
Where it at though? I don’t know
Where it at though? I don’t know
And when I find that, leave it all behind and then I go
[Outro: Trials]
Play me out, brother (Yo, Cleverman!)

[Verse 1]
Don’t move nothin’, statue
Shooter ‘bout to go nuts, cashew
Need cash off the books, past due
Real cheese for the cooks, rat food
He got drums for that ass, get fucked
Get your face rearranged, Nip/Tuck
Do heavy in the streets, big truck
Get money, get money, that’s a stick up
Your wallet or your life, choose one
Come up off the lettuce, crouton
You been sleepin’ on the shooters, futon
No donation on computers, move on
Clerk’s shittin’ in his drawers, skid row
Thought shit was just a hood game, skip rope
Shooter read the face real quick, CliffsNotes
Kissed the shoe with the .45, mistletoe
[Hook]
Shooter, shooter, shooter, shooter
You don’t want it with a shooter
Shooter, shooter, shooter
Cause he got guns and the shit gon’ bang
Yeah, the shooter brought guns and the shit go bang
Hands up, got guns in this bitch, go bang
Motherfucker better run when this shit go
[Verse 2]
Hangin’ off the rooftop, King Kong
Bullets serenade the streets, theme song
Ain’t takin’ no hits, clean bong
Just need it in an outlet, three-prong
Tired of puttin’ in work, weekend
Now we gettin’ it shine, sequin
Silence on the gun barrel cause he’s sneakin’
Found a spot the pigs can’t get to him, vegan
Look at all the folk runnin’, marathon
Like they ain’t got baggage, carry-ons
Killin’ is the best medicine, diagnosis
Got death on his breath, halitosis
Choppin’ people like they veggies, Top Chef
Like a game at a carnival, Wyclef
Think you’re playing? Just watch, Timex
Cameras roll cause he hot now, Pyrex
[Hook]
Shooter, shooter, shooter, shooter
You don’t want it with a shooter
Shooter, shooter, shooter
Cause he got guns and that shit gon’ bang
Yeah, the shooter brought guns and the shit go bang
Hands up, got guns in this bitch, go bang
Motherfucker better run when this shit go
[Verse 3]
Got a towel on his face, mophead
Gettin’ money in the desert, hot bread
Wish he had a way home, bread crumbs
Drink himself into a coma, red rum
Solider’s eyes playin’ tricks, sandwich
Need to get more info, bandwidth
Bunch of signs there to read, pamphlets
But that was not to be, Hamlet
Enemy jumped on his back, monkey
Wasn’t leavin’ no scraps, junkie
He was wavin’ his hands, krumping
Whole body like soup, dumplings
Wavin’ AKs at him, step team
Finna blow his ass away, jet stream
Leave his brain in the sand, head trips
Caught his ass on demand, Netflix
[Hook]
Shooter, shooter, shooter, shooter
You don’t want it with a shooter
Shooter, shooter, shooter
Cause he got guns and that shit gon’ bang
Yeah, the shooter brought guns and the shit go bang
Hands up, got guns in this bitch, go bang
Motherfucker better run when this shit go

CLIPPING - Nothing Is Safe
[Verse 1]
Everyone safe and sound; this how family do
Only homies around, everyone here is crew
Somethin’ foul in the air, somethin’ feelin’ askew
Wind is in the pipes, is that whistle callin’ for you?
Don’t holler; it’s cool
Windows boarded and sealed, doors are bolted and locked
Product cookin’ on pace, weaponry fully stocked
Bodies sleepin’ in shifts, other bodies keep watch
Bullets are for anybody caught runnin’ up in the spot, the pop, the pop
Drop the lights, so drop low, something shot from the trees
Went straight through the front door, homie drop to his knees
Blood seepin’ from his neck, as he struggle to breathe
Wooden floors stained wet, gets soft the more that he bleeds, he leaves, believe
[Pre-Chorus]
Didn’t no one summon what was comin’
But it creepin’ on a come up
Now it’s right up in your face
Face it, let it resonate up in your bone a minute
When you shiver, make a sliver
Big enough for it to have a space
Ripped life slipping away
Maybe you can make it out with just a little bit of grace
But it truly doesn’t give a fuck about the fear you feelin’
It is here to make you understand that nothing is safe
[Chorus]
Nothing is, nothing is safe
Nothing is sacred
Nothing is safe, nothing to pray for, nothing is safe, nothing is
Nothing is
[Verse 2]
Cut the light and stay low; all is quiet and still
Peerin’ through the window, starin’ over the field
Scent of death in the air, nothing out there looks real
Close the homie’s eyes, now is not the time to be feelin’, really load up
Furniture to the walls, barricade you inside
Lose the lights in the hallways, everyone gon’ be fine
Phone that no one should call starts to ringin’ one time
All the homies’ eyes slide to it then the walls split from the outside
The air rushes in; it’s cold as fuck, bullets slappin’ like hail, more homies struck down
The mission has failed; the wood is split, splintered chandelier falls and smashes hard
Glass and steel everywhere in every throat, screams in protest
You all are dyin’, and really will anyone care?
Truth, like death, comes for everyone
[Pre-Chorus]
Barely had to summon what was comin’
It was creepin’ on a come up
Now it’s right up in your face
Face it, let it resonate up in your bone a minute
When you shiver, make a sliver
Big enough for it to have a space
Ripped life slipping away
Maybe you can make it out with just a little bit of grace
But it truly doesn’t give a fuck about the fear you feelin’
It is here to make you understand that nothing is safe
[Chorus]
Nothing is, nothing is safe
Nothing is sacred
Nothing is safe, nothing to pray for, nothing is safe
Nothing is
Nothing is
[Verse 3]
Death is comin’ for you, but you already knew that
Thought the clique up brought you some safety up in this pack
But that didn’t add up, back up, stand up, strike a pose
With your gat up, that’s what they like, you suppose
They gon’ rack up, stack up that stuff that you stole
But the fact of status wrapped up in black cold
Caskets cannot be ignored; runnin’ so fast should had an award
Homies got gassed for cash from that score
Y'all could have made a dash just after one more
So your foot up on the gas and smash ‘round the corner
Only one man was sent to the coroner
Wasn’t part of the plan, but damn, the fast foreign
Whip was too quick to flip and fast-forward
The past smashed every wall, pillar and floorboard
Ashes to ashes, dust in the lung
Fire now on everything, gasoline been poured
Last piece of action 'fore you succumb
Just catch a glance of what could have done this
Somethin’ 'bout how he walks remind you of someone
You look and see a gun, a man with no face
A golden halo that could be the sun
[Pre-Chorus]
Long ago, you summoned what was comin’
It was creepin’ on a come up
Now it’s right up in your face
Face it, let it resonate up in your bone a minute
When you shiver, make a sliver
Big enough for it to have a space
Ripped life slipping away
Maybe you can make it out with just a little bit of grace
But it truly doesn’t give a fuck about the fear you feelin’
It is here to make you understand that nothing is safe
[Chorus]
Nothing is, nothing is safe
Nothing is sacred
Nothing is safe, nothing to pray for, nothing is safe, nothing is
Nothing is

Story 7 by clppng
Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Daveed Diggs]
Kimberly couldn’t believe what she was seeing
Video was grainy but she could make out his face
It clearly had to be Steve
Hadn’t seen him in maybe, what?
It couldn’t be more than a couple days
Who was this bitch on her knees?
She was not even pretty, fuck
He better not still be up in her place
She fishing ‘round for her keys
Check the lock, it is broken in
Impatiently, a scowl on her face
Kimberly opens the door
She wasn’t ready, drops the keys
Drops to the ground and tries to catch her breath
Steve was still there on the floor
What was left of him, gnarled bone
The body parts are piled in a mess
How easily she ignored
All of the scratches, could be nails or could be teeth
Certainly not a knife
She should have looked at the floor
Follow blood to the window sill
Where it went up and out into the night
[Chorus 1: Daveed Diggs]
Cynthia strolling through the moonlight
Casually wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth
Cynthia knew Steve wouldn’t do right
From the moment when he had said that he wouldn’t eat her out
Cynthia singing on a blue night
Temporarily satisfied but she knew that wouldn’t last
Cynthia steps into the Brew Right
Thirsty for a drink and to find someone to help hours pass
[Verse 2: Daveed Diggs]
After Randy had sent the photos
He decided that he had just earned a drink
Shit, he’s celebrating the end of a horrible case
He never had to see that woman Kimberly ever again
He thinks, shit, he had completed the task that was simple enough
She knew her man was cheating like they always do
She only needed proof
So he got to tailing the brown Chevrolet
And he’ll say this for Steve, he knew what he was doing
So good that he almost got away with all of his bullshit
But Randy wouldn’t get paid, and let’s face it
He needed every dollar that this little job could make
The bookies were calling with more regularity
He would rather keep his kneecaps still unbroken
Thank you, if it’s all the same, shit
Nothing had changed, he was the definition of in a rut
Anyway, job well done, he saunters on into the Brew Right pub
The spot pretty jumpin’, he spies a seat at the bar
Orders the scotch and then feels a gentle hand on his back
And he turns to meet the eyes of a woman
Who tells him her name is
[Chorus 2: Daveed Diggs]
Cynthia, cross-legged at the bar now holding up a drink
Wink, lips
Cynthia whispers and his heart now takes another beat
Think, skips
Cynthia, tongue along his ear now, maybe he should pay
The tab
Cynthia knows just where to go now, and they leave and hail
A cab
[Verse 3: Daveed Diggs]
He say, is this the type of thing where he pay?
And if so, he gon’ need a rain check (check, check)
She say, “You can have this one for free, bae”
As she licked the lips and started bitin’ on his neck
He say what’s crazy ‘bout this, between the bites and the kisses
Is he ain’t been in a taxi since back when he lost his sister
But Cynthia isn’t listenin’ to him, she on a mission
The moon is full and she hurtin’, and he might be the prescription
And now she pullin’ up her dress, and he grabbin’ on her breasts
And she start to see the throbbin’ in his veins
And she get ready for the s—
But just then the cabbie pulled the taxi over quick
Click, pop-pop, silver flashes mixed with red and that was it
[Chorus 3: Daveed Diggs]
Cynthia is choking on her blood now
The cabbie walks off into the night unseen while
Cynthia, still locked in Randy’s hug now
'Cept for the oaken window high above the scene and
Cynthia looks straight into her doom now
Little 'Trina watches everything that happens down below
But doesn’t scream and
Cynthia is howling at the moon now
Tomorrow, 'Trina’s gonna wake up
Wondering if it was really all a dream
[Outro: Daveed Diggs]
Cynthia
