Slow Week

Lyrics for Slow Week

Oh, man, now I'm probably never gonna see that money Havin' a laugh, Mugabe in a doom mask Even if you win, they run it back like sound clash 'Bout to go in like K9 found the ground stash Groundhog's day in each teeny-tiny bag, that's no way to live You never lived no other way Landlord bumped the rent, the victim bumped my friend What happened next, happens e'ry other day Deep water, Spalding gray, sink under grey wave As she got older, my mama started to pray Seen Bible on nightstand and felt some typa way Meanwhile, first of e'ry month, I gots all of hell to pay That's what I get tryna do the right thing This shit here better work like skin-lightening cream Uncut dope that'll frighten fiends Went for self, no-I-in-team So woke, we had no dreams No plan, but plenty schemes Look ma, no hands, clap M16 on empire's edges Empty magazine, Yitzhak Rabin, they get the message It's a slow week, it's a slow week It's a slow leak, it's a slow week It's a slow week, it's a slow week It's a slow leak, it's a slow week It's a slow week, it's a slow week It's a slow leak, it's a slow week It's a slow week, it's a slow week It's a slow week One of ours is dead, one of theirs is gonna answer for it
