[Verse 1: Kendall Elijah] I stand at 6 foot 3 At times I inhale trees to see from the canopy, but Before you Thurgood my livelihood Understood, present tence, understand My universe is out my hands I've been kicked where it feels funny Been running, been dick, no cumming/comming Felt sh**, bad plumming I heard the devil beats his wife when it rains, when it's sunny And pyramid-eye has the reign over country And something in the way she moves With the fanny fat as the singer in the blue suede shoes She's the reason, the pendulum swings my mood Have me haning like the 'stach on Fu Manchu And the truth is, Jack She couldn't give to shats Emergency, Emergency, the knive wounds are back! Like the O'Jays track, my soft drink's gone flat So bartender... Handle that! [Hook] I'm in a city where the lions, tiger, bears will ever, ever cry Wondering if the demons in me truly ever, ever die But something tells me to keep my chin always pointed to the sky And never ask 'why?'... [Verse 2: Kendall Elijah] Alright where was I? Let's see: I never hit a needle Smoking strawberry fields, jamming with The Beatles I identify with soda bottle - always been the leader/litre My self-esteem - sh**, can be measured in centimeters Eat a apple a day, to keep the doctor at bay But whats prescribed for hypocrisy I see in the democracy? Our generation bothers me We'd rather pop the E than see the worlds offering You see the sh** that sells? Update your stat, relationships done sailed Every dog has it's day, so do your year in jail Then fly like an eagle, when you see them shells Escargot, the speed we go to exhale Pardon my preaching, I had one too many Copper for my thoughts, so here is my two pennies Anybody seen a pay phone? This is my last call Tell my momma city life was my downfall... [Hook] I'm in a city where the lions, tiger, bears will ever, ever cry Wondering if the demons in me truly ever, ever die But something tells me to keep my chin always pointed to the sky And never ask 'why?'... Still in the city where the lions, tiger, bears will ever, ever cry Wondering if the demons in me truly ever, ever die But something tells me to keep my chin always pointed to the sky And never ask 'why?'...
