Marcus D - Don't Hold Ya Breath lyrics

[Verse One] Let's get it started like a new life umbilical cut So every moment from now on is like my physicals up I'm sick and tired of these rappers and they lyrical's s** They bout to get crushed and just like a cigarette bu*t It's lights out so there's nothing at the end of the tunnel And that bravado counts for Zippo cos we rendered it humble So while they shouting on the mic it's like they may as well mumble Cos we the dudes about to hunt you like the king of the jungle Yeah I Said it, but only cos I'm setting it straight Do you get it? Don't worry I'll wait!!! But not for too long cos I ain't trying to humble my pace They call me black jack cos I'm about to cover my ace It's D and Marcus we marvelous and making our mark And we stars but ya'll can only see the stars in dark And the sound that we create is like a world apart From the majority of people suffocating the art [Chorus] If you think that me and Marcus D taking rest To settle for less forget it don't hold your breath And don't be trying step to us like you seen success And one of the best, forget don't hold your breath As a student, even the rhymes I wrote on the desk poetically blessed So haters don't hold your breath Yo, just like a broke man owing a debt You wanna collect? I'm saying don't hold your breath [Verse Two] The way we put it down is simple you can make it my quote MD, Funk D is like dope meets dope We are musical prophets so notes meet hope And we about to save this music from a slippery slope Cos we tired of these rappers, tired of these actors Tired of gun clappers taking the art backwards Screaming that they are about to blow But it ain't them running the show So it don't mean nothing if you had a meeting with a major label It only really matters when a deal is on the table And even then they ain't your friend they probably going to rape you Then Take you to a foreign place and planet of the ape you Then leave you there a couple years you feeling like they hate you And when you start to shout they say “c'mon its only day two” So I do it like there's no time left And don't listen to empty promises while holding my breath [Chorus] [Verse Three] Time waits for no man and no mans island Those are the 2 things I try and keep in mind And put food for thought in everything I'm rhyming I'd rather be silent than speaking all violent See things changed in this world and environment It feels like smiling ain't a natural requirement People talk bad or they have no comment The years spin and I wonder where the time went So I got no time for these harlequins Jokers they leave you the bottom have to start again The place where you got to find the patience and the heart again And all because you couldn't figure out what's in the heart of men We only get the once chance of youth I'm telling the truth just look old men are the proof There's only 2 types of men, a king or a spoof And so a man is to man either a God or a Wolf [Final Chorus] If you think that me and Marcus D taking rest To settle for less forget it don't hold your breath And don't be trying step to us like you seen success And one of the best, forget don't hold your breath As a student, even the rhymes I wrote on the desk poetically blessed So haters don't hold your breath Yo, just like a broke man owing a debt You wanna collect? I'm saying don't hold your breath What's the chances of your team getting slaughtered to d**h but Hoping the ref will cheat? Don't hold your breath Cos you might black out like Red and Meth But nevertheless I really must stress don't hold your breath You got dreams about owning the Nets By playing roulette with minimal bets? Don't hold your breath All I'm saying's don't get far fetched Like waiting for the return of ca**ettes. Don't hold your breath
