letra de bus (a rhyme) - homeboy sandman

i was on the q4 bus
a baby was rocking jordans, couldn’t have even been 4 months
three children was snapping on another one’s poor duds
she’s already crying, they ain’t even got warmed up
mad rude
mostly out the window it be churches and fast food
thirteens gaming preteens that they might get it on with
ain’t a single woman with the hair she was born with
in the image of beyonce and solange
creator peppered linden with domincan salons
cops that clocking school kids at the bus stop want a collar man
grown ups wave the driver off, they waiting for a dollar van
enough to make me wonder what i rap for
i’m suddenly disrupted by somebody screaming
“back door!!”
i seen it everyday
scenic route
south queens mta
i seen it everyday
scenic route
south queens mta
i used to take the 58 bus to maspeth
later on, ridgewood, rode to the ending
flash my bus pass, pass it back to my homeboy
open up the backdoor for letting our friends in
half the folks on got here with no passport
if your back to me sn-tch strings off your jansport
so much going on that i haven’t forgot
we used to tug the string before we pressed the yellow tape to signal a stop
right about now
forget they headphones
kids play they music out loud
out cr-ppy phone speakers
wanna strangle these clowns
it sound even more worser than it actually sound
enough to make me wonder what i rap for
i’m suddenly distracted by somebody screaming
“back door!!”
i seen it everyday
scenic route
north queens mta
i seen it everyday
scenic route
north queens mta
when i lived up in the bronx i rode the bx27 through soundview to classon’s pt
before that i caught the b83 to starrett city to record my joints
q69 i passed the ravenswood and queensbridge warriors
to visit my grandmoms in astoria
many of the places i’ve called home is what they used to call a “2 fare zone”
where if it’s raining you get wet
wintertime you freeze
late night you could be waiting forever, or so it seems
then again if it’s late night, as long as it’s along the route
busdriver will stop where ever you want to let you out
that sh-t remind me remind me what i rap for
then suddenly distracted by somebody screaming
“back door!!”
i seen it every day
i seen it every day
i seen it every day
i seen it every day
