Lushlife’s “Magnolia” by KMichael Lyrics
[Hook]
Magnolia
Magnolia
Magnolia
Magnolia
[Verse 1: Lushlife]
I never subscribed
To crosstown beef
The baroness of Broad Street
Bowling Green, black
Folding the sheets
Holidng the heat
For months
Before they flow in the street
Eighty-nine, Wise Intelligent
Live and unique
Or either on the corner
Dipped in a polar fleece
When all I need is
Dime-pieces
Zola Jesus
All she see is
Crime in the city
Rhyming and bombing graffiti
On the bus
Just to catch a rush
Lushlife, right
Ballad of
Heavenly dames with
Heavenly frames
Rap Henry James
Henny drinker
With a periwinkle tailor-made
Balenciaga suit
Penny-loafer, Prada boot
Used to rock the Wallabies
While cooling out in Xanadu
Now I’m into Bacharach
Stacks and raps
Brill Building tracks
Handclaps
And spitting it back
So when I stay saying
Beautiful things
Why can’t I live ‘cause
(That’s how it is)
(How it is)
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Lushlife]
I’m half
Herb and Dorothy Vogel
Half rap mogul
Half modal rap
Clap vocals
And stack totals
It’s Lush Vida la Wonderwheel
Coney Island in summer feel
The number one stunner
In the sun appeal
And still always
Looking for breaks
Or either on the corner
Looking for Jake
High stakes
We looking to make
A wild, butter thesis
I hope Rammellzee
Rest in peace
Word to Jesus
Or word to whoever motherfuckers
The true believe in
I hope he’s sitting on Planet Rock
And Human League’ing
Block party, human leaving
Earth
I’m guzzling beer
And rock a stare
Everywhere I look
Kilroy’s here
Written clear
Spitting in the
Code of the streets
They holding the heat
Like the sun
That’s looming in the sky
Old and unique
I speak the pitter-patter
Breath of the kids
And breath of the Wiz
(That’s how it is)
(How it is)
