Dalama Jones - Inner Harbor lyrics

I was sixteen rapping these bars Open tryout at Camden Yards Took three throws from centerfield hard Charging on some grounders but didn't get far Down at the harbor City Lights bar Like the city might shadow its grittiest part Paddle boat flight right past the heart Like the water lap a wood Constellation in the dark Spark violence start of their defiance I remember doing street shows no flow science How do you connect when you're the tyrant Two Baltimores: Jack and the Giant BWI a Brain Washed Interstate Murder make the poor and the poor at a thinner rate Labtekwon, Thelonious Monk West Baltimore the loneliest jump The riot and the protest phoniest ones Or the real revolution of Oriole sons What you get crossing no funds With brandishing guns? Trash cans flung. Freddie Gray a kind of dike sprung Someone's son but really just another one Quoth the Raven evermore come To the shore Baltimore needs peace from the sun My harbor the many die martyr The fool and the cop and the throw them rocks harder Why bother the docks much farther We're all unchartered water my inner harbor
