Smoke Clears by KING Karlemagne Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2013

[Inturlude...]

[Verse 1]
Hopping over customs twisted, feeling sick of pigs
Harassing the kid cause I'm young black and my dick is big
On days like this I picture BIG, picture L, and picture Pac
I chose the top since Grandma told me I could pick a spot
Lately I've been shitting on any one you know at that
Scope the track, coke or crack; legend, I'ma show them that
Blow them back, we know you're whack, mind state of older cat
Been gassed like a soda pack, I react how a soldier (acts), so

[Hook]
When the smoke clears, and it’s over
Man I’ll still be around like I told you
Standing, holding my ground
How dare you think of backing me down
Mind state, of a soldier
Been through too much to lose my composure
Told the whole family, that “down’s how I’ll hold you”
So I’ll be around even after it’s over
[Verse 2]
Stumbled out a threesome, humble as can be son
Had to make it up out the jungle to get me some
My uncles are still in grieving, fumbles are the reason
Hard knock living, never fumbled out the tree then
Drunk out every season, never done what I'm achieving
So I give my cousins hope, I'm someone to believe in
Dumb out I'm still breathing, guessing that I struck a nerve
Lord knows I was blessed with word, I'm the shit the rest are turds
Step out with what I deserve, ex her right after I squirt
Fuck like a rabbit too, baby I'm a fucking perv
Time I got you suckers served, you can call it pay back
Complaining about my confidence and I knew they would say that
You're played out like an 8-track, the hell with the fuckery
Bounced and she was still around, could tell she was stuck on me (but)
Fuck the drama bitches bring, all I do is rip it, king
They been trying to see the kid like Rihanna nipple ring

[Hook]
When the smoke clears, and it’s over
Man I’ll still be around like I told you
Standing, holding my ground
How dare you think of backing me down
Mind state, of a soldier
Been through too much to lose my composure
Told the whole family, that “down’s how I’ll hold you”
So I’ll be around even after it’s over
[Verse 3]
What I do isn't passion, I'm more than dedicated
Tell the church choir play the organs, dead the hatred
I'm on a date with A-lists, the greatest on your playlist
Kardashian marriages as I escape to Vegas
What they say is I'm major, but I made it here without a soul
Sold it on way in so my baby would stay off the pole
Caking was our favorite goal, someone had to pave the road
Karl was just brave and bold, [so] pay him after every show
Won't allow my age to show, I'm 20yrs ahead of mine
You'd know that if you read my mind, that's why I say better rhymes
I son them, go to bed its time; bastards y'all can dread and whine
I'll make sure y'all don't ever shine, as I break this bread and wine
Reminisce on better times, thinking 'damn, how come it changed?'
It hurts to think of aunt Vicky, pussy helps to numb the pain
What's messed up is I run the game, then tell them my number changed
I'd get distracted from your brain, and baby I got sums to gain

[Hook]
When the smoke clears, and it’s over
Man I’ll still be around like I told you
Standing, holding my ground
How dare you think of backing me down
Mind state, of a soldier
Been through too much to lose my composure
Told the whole family, that “down’s how I’ll hold you”
So I’ll be around even after it’s over
[Verse 4]
It's been a few months, still hurts when I think of you
Lately I've been on edge, looked for who to bring it to
In every song I sing to you, trying to get my thoughts out
Like you and pops for instant, tell me what fought 'bout
You chose go the rough route, I guess it's in our blood
I know the lord saved you a section up above
They question, our love, and affection just because
I'd only speak of Evelyn and left you in the mud (but)
I thought you beat the cancer, seeking out some answers
You told me you would find my wife, even while in pampers
How could I forget, how come you just left
Such a coward, with each breath, now I feel regret
See to me it's vivid, last time that we kicked it
Just us two you asked, why my dad would never visit
Then when finally he did it, you took your last breath
And there's at least one question that I hadn't asked yet
Like, why you'd hate my mom, you two used to be closed (yet)
When she came to see you the excuses were revoked
Yasmina came too, you refused to meet her though
Wouldn't speak when I called, few weeks later you'd go
At the time it felt like I was losing every hope
Held that grudge agains you until you became a ghost
Yeah, but I'll try not to go there
Loved you to death hope you knew that when the smoke clears
