letra de been around - pat battle

now i’m low profile around phonies, so they don’t know me
i’m ghost, but when you see me i’m bony as david bowie
haven’t been around the world, h-ll, ain’t even left my prison
a kidnappin’ inherited, trapped in capitalism
from the burbs to the ghetto and back, it’s kinda wack
to my mother, hangin’ with us blacks wasn’t where it’s at
matter fact, she graduated hard knock times
from the hood, though big mama always had ’em lookin’ good
ten little huevos in the frying pan of fables
with diez in the den, how she gonna get the pesos?
life finds a way though, i heard malcolm say so
arkansas runaway on that government queso
but each one she raised though, would raise one in return
and bestow upon ’em every little lesson that she learned
see the true gods and goddesses
are those who make impossible possible
through the obstacle of survivin’ improbable feats
not economical when options are bleak
but it allows the next generation to keep rockin’ the beat
when i talk in my sleep i rhyme, cause it’s all that’s on my mind
how can i articulate a way to paint these times?
yo, i never been on a plane, so when i sit on the train
i imagine it’s a ship ’bout to take me on a lift
up up up up and away and around the world’s waist
like a lover turned mother with a baby on her hip
i’m notorious for makin’ life look a little laborious
in hindsight, when the time’s right, i’ll bet the story is
battle had a handle on it, better get a grip
imperative little narratives, lyrical movie scripts
on a bad boy beat, this blend might taste funny
like i sprayed with you with some ma$e and got your face all puffy
you may never ever love me
but name someone who can touch me
i’m workin’ without batteries, k!llin’ it like i’m chucky

in and out the burbs and i – yah yah
i take sh-t for granted
can explain it, i don’t know why
why we on this planet
i don’t know how we got here
is it the big bang? or a dude with a big name?
man, i don’t f-cking know

been around some words and i – yah yah
i hear so much hatred
i could guess, but i don’t know why
why my world’s so jaded
i don’t care if y’all play this
this is that real sh-t
give a f-ck if you feel this
uh…b-baby baby!
