lyrics

I was born in the lap of their luxury: average house, four hundred Gs.
Mid-two-thou’, they were pumpin Ps, whip it to the city every couple weeks.
Scrips, capsules, dubs, and keys just to cop some dunks and E.
Used to be the man where the functions be; they’d come through drunk, cuff, and leave.
But nothin will addict ya quicker than the cash can,
so rich cats still pitched bags like the trash man.
Made every single delivery in they dad's van.
Invest in cess in pursuit of that last band.
Skunk in they Lac at all times. Truth is your block didn't matter on mine.
Snakes in the grass that’d tattle on time. Only type of love was the catalogue kind.
Analogue lies from a digital mouth. “Don’t tell your moms what we did in her house,
but your daddy don’t care. Move the mattress right there, but remember right after I finish I’m out.”
It was Mrs. Cleaver, Ward, and Beaver. All of 'em were secret keepers,
Heard a teacher [redacted]; ruthless how he'd meet and leave her.
Bass in trunks, speak through tweeters, bathroom stalls heating cheaters,
Po-po stalkin', beat the geekers walkin' near their tweener nieces.
Treat the beaches like it's a personal clubhouse.
Love droughts. Flippin' off the cops with they drugs out.
Bud stouts, cans of Guinness, prepaid cellies handle business,
Daddy's lawyer brand em witless, slander heavyhanded witness.
Cop it, snort it, shoot it, sell it, losin' all they brain cells
Had to do it or they weren’t movin like chain mail.
Ain't hell, but it ain't heaven. Never seen a 187,
but I have seen a man die running through the streets on his last high.

Pleasantville.
