The Day - Curren$y, Mos Def, Jay Electronica

Wack niggas sleep rappin' and woke up in trouble

Wack niggas with that sleep rap and then woke up in trouble

You were cool ten years ago, you fucking Lex Bubbles

Yeah

Brand new tires, Rollin down the same old strip

New party, same old chicks

I’m so sorry if I don’t look happy to be here

In your label office, but they said I can’t smoke weed here

Man, fuck it, I’m out

Black owned, and I’m 'bout it, fool

I got a studio in my house

Along with some the perks that come with my work

Pretty twenty-something sleeping in my Diamond Supply shirt

There is not a adjective to describe how I work

Hard is not enough brother I’m tougher

Wack niggas with that sleep rappin' and woke up in trouble

You was cool ten years ago, you fucking Lex Bubbles!

You gotta know when to hold em', know when to fold em'

Learn how to roll with the punches

Take em' to school give these niggas brown bag lunches

If it ain’t the Jets, then it ain’t nothing, yeah

Yo, the king closed his cloak, the set was overfull

Such a excellent moment, so emotional

He rushed out on the field, so devoted for

Final victory clutch, they went postal-code

Glory overload, hold up, hold my coat

Please!

Remember this day

This changes everything, we can do anything

Until you show anyway

My momma told me, «Son, always call a spade a spade»

Be like Chuck D never be like Flavor Flav

But that clock around his neck is so fly

And the way he complimenting Chuckie with that bow tie flow

Make me feel high so I’m gon' spit it my way

Excuse me as I do me cruisin' rudely down the high way

I’m young, black, intelligent, elegant, blasé

Back to the thesis

Back to to shooting craps and talking smack to the polices

Back to black and gold Ballys, Dickies with the creases

Pulling young’uns by the coattails, schoolin' em' who the beast is

I pray this flow is dumb enough, ugh

I pray my heart is DMC and Reverend Run enough

'Cause I’ma throw my number up

I’m a throw some chicken bones and feathers on a hundred bucks

And summon up the thunder, what!

The voodoo man is coming, bruh

Can’t see the forest for the trees, it’s okay

I got my jigsaw and my lumber truck

Tell them boys their run is up

Yo, the king closed his cloak, the set was overfull

Such a excellent moment, so emotional

He rushed out on the field, so devoted for

Final victory clutch, they went postal-code

Glory overload, hold up, hold my coat

Please!

Remember this day

This changes everything, we can do anything

Until you show anyway

We ready for anything!
