The Twelfth Street Mystery by Verbal McMahon Lyrics
[Hook]
Told me you would hold me
Now I'm finding that I hold myself
Don't you wanna get to know me?
No, you don't even know yourself
[Verse]
Here we are, roll a forest, make a chorus, uh
Air guitar, so bizzare, Jimmy Morrison
Rockstar, Rapstar, possess forces, uh
Soon to travel in a carriage led by horses, what
Where you at Verb? Yo I'm headed back
Keep your mind on the time, we can't get it back
Meant to holla at my guy & now he dead in fact
He was just getting back, tryna keep my head intact
Feeling fragile in my heart but can't let it crack
Keep cool, be smooth, no steps back
Try not to stress that, tomorrow prolly better
Ain't no lady out my league, I could prolly get her
The wack rapper deader, in the trap stacking cheddar
Hold a staff, control the mass, clap clap your heffer
Blap Blap, you severed (blap blap blap blap blap)
Sorry I ain't sorry, this The Lower East Safari yo
Me I got the starry glow, you two-faced Harvey though
When I attack you couldn't strike back with an army yo
Top rope Hardy flow, hot dope Marley flow
We HipHop, Punk Rock, funky & gnarly yo
[Break]
[Verse]
Mama give me drama, she talking that "what your life mean?"
Drop knowledge on my brother, wonder if he listening
Verbal utter gutter, spit sickening epiphanies
Speak crystally, The Twelfth Street Mystery
Elm Street trickery, Helms Deep victory
You'd be hard pressed to find another spitter slick as me
Never caught in the matrix, you all basic
Me & my squad the new gods, we all faceless
Get assaulted & insulted to your face bitch
Now you looking salty, engulfed in your shame, shit
I'm getting off on how you can't match me step for step
1st to set it off, Inspectah Deck, Protect Ya Neck
Don't rush to get involved, I know you tryna rep your set
But trust you'll get a force you ain't never met direct before
We act wild & make the news, wow
I ain't wife shorty, shorty got the blues now
Gotta make a move now, need new shoes now
Starving artist but at least I keep a true style
These other niggas faking it, Manhattan keeps on making it
We live the now for the infinite, we shaping it
[Hook]
Told me you would hold me
Now I'm finding that I hold myself
Don't you wanna get to know me?
No, you don't even know yourself
Told me you would hold me
Now I'm finding that I hold myself
Don't you wanna get to know me?
No, you don't even know yourself
Told me you would hold me
Now I'm finding that I hold myself
Don't you wanna get to know me?
No, you don't even know yourself
