Madlib - Blue 52 lyrics

I feel my duty as a citizen within Is to condemn the many banker men by belittling them Then begin to spin the lies they spun back into truth This act of refusal's very hydrofracking induced I got the strongest motive written on the backs of my crew Causing spontaneous combustion when we come into view It's not only that we do what we do, it's that we do all of you Until you understand what you never knew This wealthy-living lifestyle doesn't tempt me yet Cause it's all about the green like an empty set So I'mma set the scene: ghetto inner city backdrop Dollar bills fall meaninglessly onto the blacktop Equality, equality, the core of my philosophy And honesty, honesty, the one and only policy That's more dope than an opium hit More dope than Bill Gates dapping Ethiopian kids Searching for love got me lost in a wilderness world Where trees drop leaves of love letters written to girls Pearly vines intertwined into the truly divine Too bad those vines are too brittle for anybody to climb In the mean time, I fiend rhymes like the Brits do tea time The beats are my crumpets and you'll crump it to these lines They hide the Pentagon tapes of a missile that B-lined I'm saying rewind but I'm not going to be kind Maybe they'll discredit me for speaking my free mind And occasionally talking 'bout girls that I want to get behind But honeys won't neglect that I am poking the bee hive You don't need three eyes to be wise to these guys I'm throwing peanuts at the elephant in the room You can say “f** the world” but you were celibate in the womb Boom, bap, bam, this cracker's smearing on the jam Once I get a little bu*ter back from the republicans Man, I've had enough comparisons to Eminem But then again look our skin, it's nowhere near some cinnamon I guess you could say we're the same in lyrical ways The way that Buddhists and Christians are in their spiritual praise, "Hey You over there bobbing your head How bout you turn the music off and let me frisk you instead Let me ask you do you have any narcotics or d** Do you define yourself as a thug, been shot by a slug Had one of your mug, then told to rat your boys by a bug?" What? Are you some sort of drug-money detector? Well if you're looking for dirty money protectors Frisk JPMorgan's Board of Directors There's more illegal cash in the private sector Than every 3rd world countries net worth put together I'm on a banter searching all the answers Living in a world where debt is the gold standard I'm gonna turn the projects in poverty to commodities Of high value property so justice is served properly And if you think a dollar sign is stopping me Your cycloptic optics arn't properly working upon this Odyssey, What
