The Coup (USA) - Violet lyrics

[Verse 1] Under hesitant flicker of neon glow Where the trash cans bloom and the needles grow I wiped that sh** off my mouth and I grabbed the dough (and that's all y'all need to know) Let the glitter of the burning debris bless me tonight Is what I thought, and inhaled nicotine delight Screams for my life- scripted by deal memos From the back of a bullet-proof-steel limo It ain't nothin in my life that's been real gentle Til the day of your magnificent beer swindle Told my story You didn't look at me funny And the kiss felt like you was payin me money [Hook] C'mon, holla at ya dog C'mon, holla at ya dog I must a missed yo call C'mon [Verse 2] They said the sparkle in your eyes Was just cuz of the daggers If they wanted us to leave they was gon have to drag us Skyscrapers crowded round to watch As we laughed at the faulty perception of clocks Every 43 bus stop on Foothill could testify Your middle finger in the air was like blessin the sky And the overpa** It shook like a overdose And the rocks caught the holy ghost And the wind made the chain-links sing falsetto We made a promise we would never settle Standin on a hydrant You declared it a holiday Against police and pimps we would have our way [Hook] [Verse 3] The room and that dude had layers of filth We sprinted out with the cash and got higher than stilts I wondered if the birds were flyin to somethin Or flyin away You said "both" And hit the E & the J Now, the stars up there are for the few who use em We karate'd down the block like the new solution: Street-level, eye-level, make your wish You told me I could write a novel and make us rich That's the last time I seen your crazy brown high-beams I'm still in front of that buildin with the white screen Stop through for a hot second Holla back I don't even want my fifty dollars back [Hook]
