Public Consumption - Horrorshow

Live and direct from the bottom of the atlas

We proudly present to you the product of the practice

We got 'em running for it like the clappers

The bass shake the place, tilt the planet off its axis

It seems some peeps have got it backwards

Please, allow me to break it down like a fraction

In a Hollywood of model slash actors

You sleeping on me?

I suggest you got a mattress

The strangest things can happen from rapping

When thought turns to deed and talk into action

Growing up never really was a dreamer

Never would’ve thought that I’d be rocking these arenas

One life to lead, no exchange or refunds

Carpe Diem, no repeats or re-runs

Calm my nerves with a pocket full of reefer

Rock the spot, blow the speaker

Y’all know what it is

Better check yourself like you got your pockets picked

Oscar Mike, make your move like Bobby Fischer

I ain’t bothered a bit if y’all wanna diss

Some just follow the script but me, I’m on a mission

And I promise you this

If you can take a few minutes out of your lifetime to bother to listen

You might find that it’s worth your while

Man, fuck the limelight, I’m trying to make you smile

Wack MC’s steady fighting for the top of the pile

Wack MP’s telling lies like a crooked sundial

Guilt and innocence blurred, a hung trial

Enough to make you wanna leave it all and run wild

Turn up the dial on the public address

Let the people in to get a piece of it until there’s none of it left

If you’re receiving this loud and clear

Let me see your hands up like you’re trying to volunteer

From my hometown to around the globe now

They proceed to download the flow and get down so

Ain’t no way, no how to slow down

On your marks, get set, get ready now

Go!

«You're alright with me, you is my friend»

«We gon dedicate this song to everybody in the house tonight!»

«Let's count it off!

Go ahead, count it off… 1,2,3!»

This one here’s for public consumption

Fit to make your head nod, get your blood pumping

Competition comes a dime a dozen

«But they know who to call when they want the party jumping»

«So here we go for your stereo»

«Real special something, soul food, fit for consumption»

«A new product from an old team»

«Hip-hop, kids from the dungeon»

This one here’s for public consumption

Raw rhymes, bass lines and percussion

Speak your piece, we don’t mind the discussion

«But they know who to call when they want the partying jumping»

«So here we go for your stereo»

«Real special something, soulful, fit for consumption»

«A new product from an old team»
