Rob Sonic - Long Island Tap Water (Kiln freestyle) lyrics

You know it's crazy, you had Double Negative, you had Diabolic, you had Aesop Rock, you had RA the Rugged Man all grow up within like 20 miles of each other. Can't deny this sh** man. Long Island is a crazy f**ing place to live. Bunch of f**ing maniacs. Must've been something in that Long Island tap water As a kid I was a little punk, loud mouth little runt Literally living off of Swisher blunts and other pick-me-ups Collecting with the rest of the litter by the river front Reviewing riveting revelations meant to riddle us And since then, been an uphill battle like Sisyphus I won't sissy fuss, I put in work for every minute punched Almost went to prison once from a swinging fist that he didn't duck Which led to hospital beds and missing fronts I never listened much, sh** I still don't But I know the deal that's why I only build with real folks My life story is a tree branch through my wheel spokes I base it loosely on some 80's movies that I still quote Long Island railroad, heading east third to last stop Mishaps and have-nots, and bolt cutters for the pad locks Let's get wild as f** til we're getting chased by mad cops I'm like sure sign me up, where do I put my Hanco*k A 40 and a blunt was our mascot On some John Bobbitt sh** we were running around half co*ked I was a great man, ?? with a sandlot I'm k**ing um Smalls, playing baseball with your mailbox Never hit a Riverhead jail cop but I'm not frail Cops tail in high trail but thank God I got bail I will not fail I'm Long Island like North Shore soccer moms with their Xanax and vodka co*ktails Before I got the mic or ever learned to rock it right I was a young g, trust me the Dundee of pocket knifes One false move y'all fools got a slice See I follow Christ, but more closely resemble the Sodomites I'm not alright, it comes down like an avalanche I could depress when I think of regrets and shattered plans Like back in school I had a crush on Carolyn But lacked the balls to talk to her even when I saw her without her man So I'd lose myself in a local arcade But couldn't shake the scars made on my heart with that harsh blade Forced to endure such a sharp pain Walking a road that's part paved, but the other part was a dark cave I was bitter as sh** cuz I told myself the worst lies Like I could ?? River this b**h and turn tides Standing there with hurt pride on a rusty Huffy Trying to bunny hop the curb side but failing on the first try It was more than endorphines that brought him to this place Born in some grip tape cuz it was boredom to escape But it's important to risk take cuz all of the mistakes Prepared him for a long life of falling on his face Fancy this I roam/Rome the empire like Ca**ius With a band of transients redefining what a family is Everlasting happiness, spliff pa**ing, acid hits Planning my journey didn't land me on a gurney or an ambulance Running 'round the scene like we little green Martians Hope they take Monopoly money and vouchers for free parking Weed sparking, security dogs keep barking Three cartons up my sleeve as I flee from the flea market To get a 40 that's where my brethren heading shortly Cypher bound, to leave a bed of severed heads before me On the better edge of glory, but they'll still portray you Cuz there's a foul call to this never ending story Where daddy's money makes these f*ggots popular While I was in a sump with a blunt and a pair of binoculars It's how we got the drop on ya Now you got your ???? shot up by the start of Jacket Mafia Running up in these street walls barely armed My brethren never needed weapons to do you fairies harm I was either home jerking working on these hairy palms Or freestyling with Lou and Andre behind your local dairy barn Making mice of men who try to contend with my temper Rhyme expert slash habitual line stepper Sick part we took hallucinogenic mind benders Right before we explored the Kings Park Psych Center Before kids had to wear them silly biker helmets And social media left the entirety of their life embellished I have felt it, don't know if I should tell it Popping handfuls of psychedelics until my f**ing eyelids melting All I have to say don't ask me why I laugh this way Bag of haze at The Bluff to catch the last of the sun's pa**ing rays Suffolk's finest with his badge displayed Tryna throw cuffs around me for how I spend my Suffolk County Saturdays For some reason I seem to get lost inside the past That wants his a**, getting high on my private stash Never did my homework but I murdered a final draft Then go and light a duby off the Bunsen burner in science cla** I was a mastermind, I thought I told y'all Skipped cla** to get a** and make it back in time for roll call ?? the mark of fame, tag my name in an old store Neighborhood survivor shot hiding rocks in a snowball We would party 'round the clock, don't know how to stop Cuz they came back with an 18 pack and an ounce of pot Product of a wild youth, you should child proof them powerlocks Eggs, shaving cream and batteries in a flour sock First base was okay, third base was Disney Land Wondering how much titty he could fit in his little hand On the way to the city as we divvy through these sh**ty plans 12 dudes one blunt inside of Thompson's minivan Never a follower, I ran in front of the dumb flock And whatnot at the bus stop, bunch of pot in my lunchbox Wasn't from the hood, first time I heard a gunshot Is when Jay put one to his head, squeezing then the fun stopped Blood everywhere let that sh** stain the wall Of the Smith Haven Mall that's where the kids came to brawl Then Robbie ratted on Pras and that sh** changed us all Should of known he was b**h made before that b**h made the call But f** it, used to puff dutches and punch s**as Then run up in cum dumpsters, thank God for that one rubber Some fun loving young f**ers But forced laws, boys had our life on strain by these corporate blood s**ers Life pulled a switcharoo it's giving him the blues Like the ingredient that indicates the kid is pissing in the pool I took part in the wild sh** that kids will do That's why I get nostalgic every time I pa** our middle school I ran with a pack of crackers mad as hatters Turning every random factor into a laughing matter That genuinely exuberant brand of laughter But when I try to recapture the source it feels forced and manufactured I need food for the soul, I know the recipe Dumb high taking a blunt ride with Nicole and Stephanie Behold the reverie It's like this whole song is like my inner child playing ring and run with the present me It presented me with a bunch of pride that I ain't swallow And asked why as an adult I can't follow the same model Nevermind it leaves my brain boggled Tryna recapture lightning for the second time in the same bottle But I forever rep the home front Treating you geeks like loose leaf, you can get a hoe punched I shouldn't of been left alone much There was something in that water that made my brethren go nuts I never been a stepping stone once I'm still at the flagpole that a**holes yet to show up Catch me repping the 90's like a set of gold fronts My inner Toys "R" Us kid singing I'll never grow up
