lyrics

Verse 1:
Bill Grease timeless, finesse with the wine list
Finest to ever do it, rap god Aquinas
Blessings inherited; his highness combined with
Blunt smoke beats made by Sweeps with a fine stitch

Counting dimes, press rewind, never mind kid
Gun smoke jokes pull the yoke on a fine bitch
Most folks lose their mind when the rhyme switch
One day the kid slick, next day he shines shit

It’s like a sunrise bus ride
Light hits the windows of my mind and divides combines
Like a half-sipped nip spilling spirit down your thigh
With a half-baked grip that personifies the time

Sinking feeling like them cars in the pond
Kids stole em after dark, like the boot of a bong
Had to be in ’82 or ‘88
You can see them in the winter time right beneath your skates

Verse 2:
There’s a gin game in Union Square in one of them saloons
With a Cuban book maker holding beer-soaked doubloons
Calls me Barbaroja when I get funny in the head
Figured running up a tab was better than counting out the bread

There’s a Riddlist up on Harvard Ave
You can see him on the block, you can hear the kid shout
How far the cat run through the woods, place your bets
Below the nose it goes, you can feel it in your chest

Who goes there? Smells like kibby
Hennessy the kid, with Armenian chickees
Known around Korea town to play the game Chicago
Above the autobody shop they bundled up the Fargo

Dice game sells beers if you’re polite
Spanish said inside that place, it isn’t very nice
Lots of talk of little dogs whenever they’re upset
Best forget the meaning like it’s Benny and the Jets
