Mick Jenkins - Grenade Theory lyrics

[Intro] Chicago Chicago Chicago The streets of Chicago They are waging war on the streets of Chicago [Intro 2: TheMind] Body on the corner Mental like Warren Buffet Gotta think about something before I lose it Cause his hands on the queen She call a n***a king cause she know it's coming My flesh is tainted cause world painted My n***a say this just the world, ain't it? It's all about to blow (Said "we about to blow") [Verse 1: Mick Jenkins] We be, raw with it from the veggies to the truth To utensils for botanical pursuits, we off the herbal essence Head and shoulders let you know I learned some lessons 'Bout the flakes, and the snakes, and the people that just cannot pump the brakes Ye told me "drive slow" I'm from Chicago I'm innately expectin' a couple potholes This common practice It's common sense to lack of access's and common accents We want the progress but subtract the practice We loathe the process and we lack the pa**ion That's just the world, ain't it? You love it, but it k** you That's like a bag of Crunchy Kurls, ain't it? Arguing with your girl when ya'll can't agree how the world's painted Car maintenance, there's been a flood in the attic It's made it's way from the basement I waded way too deep in it I think it filled all the spaces that was empty, in me Seeing is so simply, blesses come in plenty Do it all for less than pennies, I will [Hook: TheMIND] Oooooh (We about to blow) 200 miles an hour I ride this b**h until the wheels fall off They using fear as power I'm not afraid, she told me "Come a little closer" Everybody get's scared sometimes She's leaning to the left right now I'm starting to regret right now Now, now Movin' this fast, but even if I crash I was drivin' this b**h At least I was just drivin' this b**h At least "I" drivin' this b**h crazy Drivin' this b**h crazy (We about to blow) [Verse 2: Mick Jenkins] Why so many do it for the gold? Why so many fold like a crease Why my n***as do it for the hoes? Why my n***as die in the streets? Some say that's the way it goes I can't go for that kind of defeat I move accordingly Put it on my soul like a burden sh** feel like a boulder Say they want some more of me I'm in that Just touched down back in town Where you been at? Granny know I'm rapping say my life is full of sinnin' Like hers ain't, like yours ain't Got an understanding of the word in the worst way Why I can't play around with the wordplay? All up in their minds they been waitin' around third base, in that Say you ready for a revolution, where you been at? Thought that you was mobbin' Where your n***as, where your men at? Sound like you been lyin' for a minute, n***a We about to blow n***a, we about to blow Just to let you know, it was always 'bout the growth n***a, we about to blow
