Drastic Measures versuri

Drastic Measures lyrics by Buck 65

Full of piss and vinegar. Stop the bleeding with a ligature
Develop a signature like an aerosol calligrapher
Awareness call. Listen. Longevity lesson
Facts: it all starts with blackout ’77
Acknowledge Super Kool and what the title signifies
Letters written big with pride. Besides, the name is dignified
No phony toy. Dope like an opioid
Landing a front flip. One-trick pony-boy
There was a time I had the major labels courting me
Basic box, they never gave me space to rock accordingly
Unholy grails, I buy too many of the damn things
I don’t recognize myself with crows feet and wings
Maybe you could see the really-real if you squinted
Devious, I’m building on the previously blueprinted
I look for traces in these places but they’re devoid
Spinning on your head – that doesn’t mean that you’re a b-boy
The change is seismic when we’re rocking it sly, slick and wicked
Standing deep in sticky liquid. Run-on sentence, if convicted
The writing on the wall’s the ultimate exam question
I will turn a meeting of the minds into a jam session
You best remember all the names that I alluded to
Mother Popcorn taught me all about Karate Boogaloo
Cock-a-doodle do. Yo, I don’t give a flying fig leaf
Dig me when I say the so-called Big 3 ain’t my big 3
Convert the basement to a wreck room. You remain complacent
The way I see it, that’s not hip hop, it’s hip hop adjacent
I teach the coaches, disappear when the police encroaches
Tabulate the new formations. Style and piecing approaches
I’m living proof that never-ending education wins
At the age of 15, I could dunk on regulation rims
Waxing lyrical, the knowledge is empirical
But at the end of every day, for me, this thing is spiritual
