Ali Shaheed Muhammad - Elevated Orange lyrics

[Verse 1] This is what you get when you ____ around with a vet Take this as a threat and I'm far from finished yet I bust my sound, it pounds, another crown laid down So crossfade now, this is just a mic check Thumping on your set screaming hands on deck I haven't bust a sweat or a tear. Fella, what you fear? Your balling is done, it's endgame There's only one that reigns supreme to the team Here to crush your petty scheme With a stream of gasoline, set fire to your gangster-lean And screams for holy water, coming up to steam You know what I mean. You been saying things out of order Should have thought of the backlash and the whiplash And the war brought to your a** [Chorus] x2 This is what you started, you schemed it, you plotted You dreamed it, you charged it, elevated orange Finish what you started, you reaped it in secret You're dearly departed, elevated orange [Verse 2] I got a (?) with them laws you make It's not going to keep you safe You straight transgressed the means, now it's time for you to come clean When I mix it up it's going to leave your face twisted This chick's just a lame duck and nay mutt hush Just sit, dog, sit. Rabid dog on that This is a big boy spit, got you aimed in my pad And I'm aiming to drag this critic to the limit, with my b-boy spirit You feel it, fans hear and they chill with admiration for this Brooklyn-born sensation, busting up your party and your safe haven Said I was finished, you was greatly mistaken, boy This is page one from the beat of my drum Soundboy slayed son. It's a wrap, the kid's done [Chorus] x2 Talking about some Homeland Security Man, that's straight racial profiling Man you can't keep your borders safe (nope) When you straight renegading on other nations and whatnot What you think this is? Eventually that plot's going to come back and haunt you It's going to come back, baby. Believe it. Believe You ready? 'Cause I'm ready Sitting out there, talking this mess It's elevated orange, baby [Chorus] x4 This is for the Native Americans that was robbed of their homeland by you This is for the Africans that was enslaved by you This is for the Chinese that come over here to get some work and was oppressed by you This is for my people trapped in the ghettoes and in the trailer parks That still continue to get blocked by you This is for people all over the world that still suffer because of you Still, 2,000 years later You have a sickness, you need therapy Go see Dr. Phil and get a pill and get up out our way This is for the true defenders of democracy Oh, I know, I know Rum and rims, girls and Benzes That's what you want from me You ain't gonna get that This elevated, man Go wake up your mind and elevate it Before you run out of time Shaheed Muhammad, Garden Seeker Productions That's how we get down
