Forerunner Foray - Shabazz Palaces

Now you could feel all the tension

Building up at the convention

As the hustlers began to arrive

Must have been 9000 or more

That came through the door

The time was 11: 55

There were pickpockets and dope peddlers, murderers and thieves

Card shark gamblers with aces up their sleeves

Bank robbers, burglars, boosters and pimps

One more blaster for the streets

(hey)

I was born on the understanding

Stars slung 'cross the heavens

Some might call uneven

My kind call 'em leanin

Bitch boy, pistol aimin'

Black star, minds are schemin'

Fulfill all our dreamin'

That’s what’s up this evenin'

Extra vacant bangers

Brim broke chain swingers

Space cake horse race AK that nigga lame

God smile on me favours, baby caught the vapors

Magic golden purp running like the filthy lakers

Self saviour cream chaser in my ride later

Crack baker super real just like '88 was

'92 and '92, in '92 we grinded thru

I was there, you’re a square

These do not compare

If I’m there in the square you should come and stare

Bring her too, learn a thing or two how a king’ll do

Off the cuff, fill my coffers up, pop my collar up

Gunheat to these gunbeats she gone stir it up

Black stallions pull my chariot

My heart’s broken (swag)

Time travel fast and far to the last ocean

Punk potion, pimp pirate pushin' plush prose in

Curtains closin'

You ain’t knowin' he was just posin'

Map clonin' that’s a no-no where I be rollin'

The leads hot how I pop, see now that’s a cold one

Constellation roll-call it’s a style sport

Winners take all, holler black for the straps report

We respect Mohamed, peace be upon him

Connecting with the pirates

I know where to find it

These niggas shot Cyrus

I’m the icest, wait up on the bottom on some fly shit

Priceless, but down there at the top I can’t find shit

Every time I rock it’s a tongue-kiss

E.H.

Starling, forerunners and a punk fist

Shout out to the B C C C constellation OC, can’t stop stop KD

Triple M ra ra C and KB

Bro bro solo though Shaheed stay free

Yung beat find heat where the cake be

Yung Ike all night with that boy Pete
