Joey Bada$$, Chronixx - Belly of the Beast lyrics

My nigga we dangerous, dangerous
These niggas can't hang with us hang with us
Nigga we dangerous, dangerous my nigga we

I swear all my life I
Been around crips and bloods
Grips and slugs, the trigger happiest thugs
Claiming the slums
And all the hoods that they from
Too much of the sum
Got it twisted up blinded in a rat race
Cash straight, the fake kill jake
The snakes too late my eyes dilate
And I could tell them how he strafe
Coming at me sideways, get straighten up
Don't deflate it up gimmie the
Bucks my cash wrinkling up
Looking back in the days
Amazed 'cause the lab rat done
Made it out the maze
Still feel caged, enraged though
Used the underground railroad like
A runaway slave
Broke off the chains still runway fresh
Got you on that mental plane
With my project jet
I'm two steps above that nimbus cloud
My limit is low
When I'm smoking on that loud
Focus in the now, when the lotus is around
It's the Brooklyn sound, a pro found
Biggie would be proud about
But I don't need a vet to even shout me out
Punchlines pack a Pacquiao they
Can't box me out

Big up big up, it's a stick up stick up
Niggas hit a nigga quick if he hiccup hiccup
Big up big up, it's a stick up stick up
Niggas hit a nigga quick if he hiccup hiccup
Tell me what them know bout
The Badmon named Jozif women come around
I look em down like they don't know shit
Word around the town is that they
Got the match explode it

I'm a child of the city son of the streets
And it's just a pity they not tough like we
And things not look pretty
When we got to eat things get much deeper
Deeper and deeper the belly of the beast

And I survive, thank the father
Feel like I was raised by Clans One Order
Had to keep calm and hold ma corner
Cause a stray gun shot if
You cross the border
Pro Era teach them the pros and cons
Of living in a city with a thousand dons
A thousand ghetto youths with a thousand guns
Cold hearted killers with frozen lungs
But praise rastafari we wheel and come again
Know I Nyabinghi sit know we the drummer dem
Dem ammunition are tougher we power dem
Lightning and thunder a devour them
Pro Era teach them the pros and cons
Original Chronixx and Joe Badmon
No King Selassie, we have the golden crown
Get ready for the shift we
Are the chosen ones

I'm a child of the city, city, oooh

I'm a child of the city son of the streets
And it's just a pity they not tough like we
And things not look pretty
When we got to eat
Things get much deeper, oh no
Deeper and deeper the belly of the beast

I'm a child of the city, city, oooh city
The belly of the beast been get real ugly
I got to eat now every man has to stand
On his own two feet
You have to love you have to
Dove tougher than a concrete
It's them to you a white sheet oh dear

Yeah, the original Chronixx and
Ooh Jozif Badmon
