Hit-Boy, The Alchemist - Slipping Into Darkness lyrics

[Hit-Boy, The Alchemist - Slipping Into Darkness lyrics]

Artists livin' comfortably, yeah
Yeah, let me fly (Fly)

Never seen before or heard in this fashion
Convert the work to magic
Bury a beat six feet, pour dirt on the casket
Hard to imitate
I'm cut from a certain fabric (Fabric, oh)
My shirt and slack thirty racks
Plus the fur jacket, no turnin' backwards
(No turnin' back)
Forward motion, I pour mimosas
Got me more in focus (Yup)
Got my foot inside the door then tore it open
Now we goin' dumb, throwin' money
I'm from the Sunshine State (Yes)
When I eat, I need a plus-size plate
The main event is this (This)
My jewelry look like the
Great Adventure Slick (Chrome)
Promote this pain, a stencil on the brick
With my insignia
You made a little splash in the wavepool
I'm even drippier (More)
Shoot out the lights, I'm puttin' fifty up
Then hang my jersey in the
Rafters right next to Hit (What up?)
Hoppin' out the Trans Am, flexin' the fit
(See me?) fuck all the talk
Just cut the check and split
(Fuck outta here)
Floor seats while I'm sippin'
My piña colada was drippin' on my Pippen
(On my Pippen)

But, I never get to slippin' into darkness
(Dark)
You never catch me slippin' into darkness
(Dark)

Never catch me slippin' (Never)
Alchemist over a Hit-Boy beat
Hit-Boy over a Alchemist beat let's do it

I'm not for everybody but I am who I am
I am what I am, no back and forth
No Martin and Pam
TSA gotta check my wrist and all
They can say is ''Damn!''
When you move how you wanna move
You gon' make somebody mad
My nigga, I'm the best student Kanye ever had
Fell out with certain niggas fast 'cause
I put shit on blast
That's how you smother out the nonsense
I'm hungry as a hostage
They hit with me the blockage but
I made it out the gauntlet
Took short but long trips
What I know for sure's this
Niggas'll backstab you way quicker than
They'll stab for you
And that might be more soulful than
Goin' to Church's after church
You cross your man, but what was it
Worth? You die with a chain
They runnin' your hearse
I guess I'm not the type of
Nigga you say congrats to
Still put the shit on my back and
My shoulders if I have to
I'm thinkin' both of these two cities
Should go build my statue
Pasadena and Fontana
I brought chips back through (For the win)
They thought they knew my
Sound, I leveled up, I'm highly blessed
Add me on your IG while you
Play this on your project steps
Two feet on the concrete
Somehow niggas thought I lost my step
'Til I did them Nas projects
This time you cannot deflect (Cannot)
I am who I am
I'm never slippin' into darkness
In this all-white Lamb

I'm never slippin' into darkness
(Never slippin', never slippin')
But they bringin' me to the darkness
(To the darkness, darkness) , look

I'm usually homeboys with producers
I get compared to but on this one, I wanna
See 'em stretched out, extra legroom
I don't really know dude
He seem like a cool cat
But, I never once heard Metro
Boomin do boom bap
I never heard a Southside beat
Without a 808 in it hB in drunk-driver mode
I swerve in every lane with it
I fuck with Mustard
He can make that ratchet shit
With his eyes closed
But now I'm startin' to wonder
Can that nigga chop soul?
I just seen Yung Berg spoke on the wave
I should do him like Trick Trick
And snatch Hit out his name
I had decoded the game
I had the coldest of days
I'm like Deebo on his cruiser
How you got no credit's without co-producers?
Time to give these niggas the royal flush
No Roto-Rooter
It's Hit-Boy buckin' just so you
Niggas know the shooter jugg season
I'm in the A playin' Young Scooter
Needed to see me in broad
Day from the walkway
This feel like childhood summer trips
I've been a modest supplicant
They rob you for publishin'
That feel like a punishment
How people I only met once don't
Look like none of us?
Movin' with this wild behavior
That shit that shattered my trust (Trust)
Build a million statues in my likeness
And I ain't dissin' on nobody
I ain't even write this
It came to me in a dream
They had it out for Hit (Out for Hit)
So I freestyled this verse over The Alchemist
(Over the Alchemist)

Hit-Boy! I know it's been a while
I've been sleepin' on some gems too
The Greg Street's question of
The day today is:
How do you know everything
And you ain't never did shit?
How you got all the answers
But, you ain't never did nothin'?
