Shmoke by Spragg Lyrics
(By the way they’re allowed to smoke here whenever they like)
Lemme tell you how I failed and I just made a better me
Now my old self is dead to me
Deodorant no one sweatin’ me
Got locs so they still dreadin’ me
See the competition and I Cruz by like Penelope
Cruise like David Aames in Vanilla Sky
And I publicize my rise
And epitomizе all of my dreams that’s ahead of me
I swеar nobody gettin’ me
I am like that lottery ticket you always bought
And ya thought it would end a drought cuz you sought
To put and end to what fought and got nothin left in the pot
And got pockets startin’ to rot, funds cut lobotomy
Don’t know why they doubtin’ me
But in my mind I am a king
And with due time they will bow to me
Recognize a prodigy, know the name and
Know the face, alias, hold up he just made the beat
I think it amazes me that people wastingly got sets of ears
Cuz they blatantly don’t hear the truth or hear what is real
I’m spittin’ crazily about topics that change a mindset
Silly me for wanting change molded they mind set
Woo let me slow it down for ya
I be doin’ too much I’m astoundin’ ya
Like a strict parent I’m finna be groundin’ ya
Like that speaker in ya system I’m surroundin’ ya
I’m that six-eleven eighth grade hooper
That’s a freak of nature cuz I do not suit ya
Average category check the allegory
Like an avid story how I tell it to ya
Spittin’ folk tales I’m a lyrical, mythical, creature
And I got pristine features
I be in middle with a signal on a island while stranded
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the
I think I may start a fire
That might just be what we need
I think I may start a riot
So many blind that don’t see
Tired of the ones who keep lyin’
They keep corrupting the folk
Talk is so cheap I ain’t buyin’
I’ll send a signal of smoke
At this day and age we keep selling a look and an image
To create mirages and dodges to lows
So we never exposed keep em all on they toes
And that’s just how it goes
I think that imma just blow it to smoke
And I’ll pick up a brush as I paint with a stroke
That will taint up a cloak to the people
That claim that they royalty but in reality croak
Imma let that one soak, and maybe saturate
Everyone gassed up well I’m bout to flatulate
Please don’t retaliate
Imma clap back and might make ya heart palpitate
You gon’ add fuel well imma just shine brighter then
All of that beef I’ll serve it to a lions den
Back to that cloak I’m bout to send to smoke
I’m bout to set it straight almost if I had ironed it
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
All of these bright minds that we got
It don’t make sense they closed
I just want to enlighten by
Writing what I propose
Sometimes we are our foes
Sometimes I feel I’m chose
Gotta fight through the woes
Imma just need a dose
Of a little bit of love and a little bit of pain
If I only got one then I can’t maintain
You won’t ever get shunned if you ain’t got shame
You won’t ever have support if you ain’t got frame
Won’t catch a dub if you don’t play the game
You ain’t ever gon' change if you always the same
You won’t ever be a man till you learn to take blame
I done got me some smoke and that’s after the flame
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
I remember back when times was ignant
Darker than my skin and my pigment
Wanted change in an instant, pressured like a piston
Wishin’ reminiscin’ hard times
And now I turn them to rhymes
My dreams lately sublime
My thoughts have been confined
My life has been a crime that’s stolen
Dark nights need a flashlight, Chris Nolan
Punctuate my peace like a colon
But no intestine I been investing
All of my efforts to get better in testing
All these different flows
Failing everyday is how you really grow
Questionin’ if imma be a billy goat
Questionin’ if they gon’ really hear me though
Questionin’ if I can be the cure
For all the social poison imma be the antidote
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Cuz you know I want the shmoke
Lemme tell you how I failed and I just made a better me
Now my old self is dead to me
Deodorant no one sweatin’ me
Got locs so they still dreadin’ me
See the competition and I Cruz by like Penelope
