Common, Saukrates - Play Dis (Clean) lyrics

Little piece of sumpin' play
Originial rap play
Little piece of sumpin' play
Hardcore in hip-hop

Amazed dudes to wack crews lay it down
Kids could never walk a mile in my shoes
Shorties clockin' me
Always be coming in the two
Niggas from the north
I'm bringing you tracks and good news
My debut was real to the blind industry minds
Who never had the time
Now kids press rewind to the top
But legally I gotta show love
Call me A, B and C, the answers D
All of the above
I attack the microphone like Jack Ripper
Real for stacks
Lеaving kids no headroom like Max
Try to react, but you wеre never calm


And never, could kick a verse
When worse come to worse I'm better
Shine like genuine rhine and
Black patented leather
On half naked honeys who
Forgot about the weather
Fuck an exhibition, and warm up scrimmage
Shoot more words that Macho Man
Spit gism in the village

Little piece of sumpin' play
Originial rap play
Little piece of sumpin' play
Hardcore in hip-hop

Stimulated by a tree and drama
I advanced on a branch of respect and honor
A patient of the Ill state
Sittin' in trauma
Never been one to side with hama
For Armageddon, I'm getting armed plus armor
The comma of matter on the rise like
A tip in the southside diner
Your preference to the book of life
That likes to pack humid
To it I react by staying strapped
With the mack and courage
Parallel to a carrousel of murders
I prefer to make a life than take a life
Stopped at a street called Wise
And made a right
Sort of how I play my broads
Just how I play the mic
First I cuff it, then finger fuck it
Check it something rugged
Other niggas be reluctant
To touch it after me
Passively they strike, never matching me
Rapidly, don't placidly
I fabricate the verbal tapestry
Tap the keg of your conscious
Navigate niggas like Farrhakan with a compass

Little piece of sumpin' play
Originial rap play
Little piece of sumpin' play
Hardcore in hip-hop

Kids setting their watches 5
Minutes fast to stay on top of time
But I'm already 10 minutes away
Nigga play what you want to play
He say she say
But Saukrates got the buttas in
T dot O dot today

Slowly but surely I pour the lyric
Into the glass of your mind
My rhyming will be the diamond
That will cut through
Lines say but you to do
You don't know what to
Got wisdom like a tooth
Incidentally I get buck too
Didn't get my jest, so I just had to do it
My mic or your mic, come on no congruent
Seen broads in brew to me, be jubilee
On my neck be hot jewelry
My old man be schooling me
For sho' I rock good
Cats claim this hood and that hood
Black man, your hood is the universe
On this Earth
You were first through the worse
My crew could hearse
Used to go up stairs and
We went through the purse
I don't cures around juniors
Spread live like rumors
Niggas loved my tape
But how many were consumers?

Shout out to honeys working
Them hourgalss hips
Stay soprano, reading surano
Dramatic episodes, yo Common
Let me play with niggas
Brains like clay kit's
When I rock stage hit's
Skip the rumors and lies
So you're under the stairs
When I drop my hip-hop
You'll be some Maytag repairmen
And flip flop the fake
Who thought the scored
And half-assed niggas sending you
Back to drawing boards
To deliver the real shit
At least we'll spit on your mic
I'm versatile like a plate of read grit's

Little piece of sumpin' play
Originial rap play
Little piece of sumpin' play
Hardcore in hip-hop
