Mick Jenkins - C Is For CashMoney lyrics

[Intro: Spoken] The letter I would like to go into with you very briefly is the letter "C". It is one of my favorites. Oh, it's very underrated, in terms of letters, you know, very few people sit around and comment on the virtues of the letter "C". But it is the first letter in "Cash Money", it is the first letter in "constitution" and it is the last letter in "music" [Chorus] Oh, y'all n***as see me now? Yeah, know you can smell what I'm cooking I caught you looking, oh you see me now? Y'all n***as fronting before, you stunted on flows But you say you see me now? You was stuck on division, you couldn't f** with the vision But you see me now Aaah, you see me now [Verse 1] I caught 'em slipping, he capping on this water No captain, the waves is crashing around him He's Peter, screaming, "Come catch me" The faith is lacking, he can't keep running the numbers But all he's catching is cramps He be with shooters, all my n***as got clamps We clearly cultured, been collecting the stamps Of different nations, my caution In the wind with the smoke from all of my coughing In Amsterdam, I drink coffee and dodge all the cancer clouds on My campfire like teacher's name I can't be more cohesive than truth A culmination of lies, a compilation of proof A combination of both is what creates all this confusion Your captions don't save nobody They castrating my body on camera Credit Montreal, I been considering Canada I can play chameleon, slip through customs in a pinch I play Charmeleon on this flame I pitch Don't act like ya'll n***as don't hate my sh** [Chorus] Oh, y'all n***as see me now? (Oh it's very underrated) Yeah, know you can smell what I'm cooking I caught you looking, oh you see me now? Y'all n***as fronting before, you stunted on flows But you say you see me now? You was stuck on division, you couldn't f** with the vision But you see me now Aaah, you see me now [Verse 2] I came to claim and Contrary to an unpopular consensus I have not conceded my position Merely concentrated my condition And no competition but myself Convinced that constant praying conviction could Cultivate any depiction of reality he sees fit That's why I try to speak it cryptic Copious amounts of knowledge You know they do recon missions Try to keep it low-key, I peep energies Though something 'bout your chemistry concerns me Counter-culture enemies lurking and I know they see me I know they think I'm Stevie, I'm really Bartimaeus All my jabs is Ca**ius Clay I could hook a shark in this water Where to start, where you at? [Chorus] Oh, y'all n***as see me now? Yeah, know you can smell what I'm cooking I caught you looking, oh you see me now? Y'all n***as fronting before, you stunted on flows But you say you see me now? You was stuck on division, you couldn't f** with the vision But you see me now Aaah, you see me now
